You know it’s bad when this is like the 4th or 5th worst Republican scandal of the day.

This shows in so many ways Halligan is unsuited to be United States Dogcatcher, let alone United States Attorney. She writes a reporter whining about reporting but not offering any actionable specific things the reporter got wrong. There's NO WAY that helps anything.

Chicago Mayor Issues Defiant Call For A General Strike

It was an audacious proposal, given that the U.S. has never held a true, nationwide general strike.

Experts disagreed on whether portions of the facade of the White House were literally being torn down by an excavator. A spokesperson for Just Rip It To Shreds With A Fucking Excavator, a nonpartisan environmental policy think-tank, said that the photographs were “unconvincing Marxist propaganda”.

Every time a MAGA says "George Soros," replace it with "The Jews" and you'll understand the motive.

I’m not saying they’re Nazis. I’m saying being a Nazi isn’t a deal-breaker for them. I’m saying at a minimum they’re Good Germans.

I still can’t figure out why people don’t just call it what it is.

It’s not “strikes”.

It’s not “military intervention”.

It’s not “a campaign”.

It’s murder.

ACLU @aclu.org · 1d

However the Trump administration now tries to justify its strikes on private boats in the Caribbean, nothing it can say magically unlocks legal authority to use lethal force against civilians.

Congress must rein in this egregious abuse of power.

Trump's boat strikes are killing potentially innocent civilians. They must be stopped.

On Tuesday, President Donald Trump announced that the U.S. military had killed six people in a strike on a boat that, Trump said, was “trafficking narcotics.”
