“The Admiral leading quit”

Reposted by G What?

Jessica Tarlov @jessicatarlov.bsky.social · 7h

The government has killed 32 people in 7 strikes with no evidence they were traffickers. The admiral leading the mission quit. If we had proof, they’d face a court, not a drone.

The law still applies, even to suspected drug traffickers, and right now, the Administration’s story isn’t adding up.

CNN bowing to fascism! Sad
Expected from fake Fox and lies Max, but CNN bowing is more disturbing. Sure they’ve been full of shit before. They proudly broadcasted Iraq war BS and a lot of other crap. They didn’t investigate well enough, or at all, but this is a new low.

Reversing or undoing the Citizens United precedent would be the greatest thing America could to protect US democracy.

This is some of the best political news I've seen in a very long time.

There's a clear a way to end the Citizens United precedent by changing state incorporation laws - and now luminaries in both parties are forcing a vote on it in the 2026 election.

Is it "trench warfare" if you're the only one in the trenches, lobbing grenades at yourself, your feet slowly rotting from fungal infection, while everyone else is just merrily skeeting about jewel-heisting the Louvre?

Spoke with some administration officials who said the move was about "reaching new audiences." It's amounted to trench warfare.

400+ anti-science bills attacking longstanding public health protections — vaccines, milk safety & fluoride — have been introduced in statehouses this year, part of an organized, politically savvy campaign to enshrine a conspiracy theory-driven agenda into law. www.sun-sentinel.com/2025/10/21/a...

Moskowitz: We need $30 billion to extend, obviously, these healthcare subsidies, which allow Americans—Americans, not illegal—Americans, citizens, to afford healthcare.

And the president’s like, “We don’t have $30 billion, but I am going to send $40 billion to my dear friend in Argentina.”
