It’s a joke on many levels. It craps on what has made America special, and at the same time is meaningless and impossible to implement. The is no strategic purpose to the Administration. Trump just does whatever idiotic and corrupt thing crosses his addled mind.

Tom Cotton: "They were not incapacitated… They were sitting or standing on top of a capsized boat."
Before Tom Cotton defended an indefensible murder
He suggested that peaceful protesters should be thrown off the Golden Gate Bridge
And before that, he advocated for Trump to use troops against protesters-implying they should be shot
The MAGA bloodlust will not be sated

"Gavin Newsom, has vetoed our menopause bill, not one, but two years in a row, But that’s OK, because he’s not going to be governor forever, and the way he has overlooked women… by devaluing us, he probably should not be our next president either."
A new grand jury has now refused to indict Letitia James after the first indictment was dismissed.
As I wrote here for @theatlantic.com, the basic safeguards of the criminal justice system are proving to be one of the most effective checks on Trump's abuses.

One more thing that doesn’t make sense:
If these guys were in the water for an hour, why didn’t we send a boat to pick them up, arrest them, interrogate them, and get more intelligence on these drug ops that are threatening our country?

Admiral Bradley is apparently going to tell Congress tomorrow that the two survivors whose boat had been blown to smithereens “were attempting to continue their drug run, making themselves legitimate targets for another attack.”

Roger Marshall-You go, Trump! Kill those boat guys! War on drugs, WOOO! [even though it’s murder and we don’t even know if they’re really carrying drugs]
Also Roger Marshall-Trump pardoned a drug kingpin, you say? First I’ve heard of this five-day-old story. But I’m sure he had excellent reasons
Narrator-Next on MSNow
Roger Marshall is back to tell us he just learned only Congress-not Trump-can declare war
So this isn’t war-but the kill order was still OK
And despite the IG report that Pete Hegseth’s Signal chat could’ve put troops at risk, it was an honest mistake and we should move on
Sen. Roger Marshall said women are "great shoppers." Which is so true! What they don't be doing, though, is getting reproductive healthcare from their GOP representatives.

No, you got it right. Unfortunately, Hakeem Jeffries is a jackass.

Giving him any credit at all for "the border", esp with the ongoing ICE/CBP horror is obscene.
