The "law" is what the people with guns say it is.
Interesting to consider that if you were to go and deface the Kennedy center by removing Trump’s name, you’d be arrested and charged with a crime, but your act would be no more unlawful than what they’re doing right now.

I keep saying this but no one is connecting the dots. The war is to satisfy legal preconditions for mass removal *domestically* of Latinos (i.e., suddenly a lot of people are going to be “Venezuelan” for purposes of removal). This is 100% Stephen Miller…oil claim is to make grandpa go along
There is no national security logic that would impel the US to want to do regime change in Venezuela. It's simply not that important. I'm not even sure wag the dog is the right metaphor for what's happening here. Seems like an insane misallocation of US national security assets and attention.
Trump: "Venezuela is completely surrounded by the largest Armada ever assembled ... It will only get bigger, and the shock to them will be like nothing they have ever seen before — Until such time as they return to the USA all of the Oil, Land, and other Assets that they previously stole from us."

Every time you want to know the truth about Trump’s handling of money go to Atlantic City. Unfortunately he’s killing jobs, swigging off taxpayers money and driving up costs from medical to food.
Everything he touches is corrupted and eventually diminished.

Two babies were born in New York within a year of each other, soon after WWII.
One, Rob Reiner, lived a life of humanity and achievement. He brought us delight and joy. His memory will be a blessing.
The other, Donald Trump, will be remembered as an embarrassment to our nation.

Even the replies from the cultists on Truth Social are overwhelmingly negative about Trump’s Reiner post. Of course, as usual, some are blaming his advisers for it - like this one blaming Susie Wiles.

That's odd, because according to the flight logs, he was on Jeffrey's plane SEVEN TIMES. And now some of the newly released Epstein photos are showing Trump on that plane.

Chancellor Merz is right: Europe can no longer depend on America.
But he's wrong to say that America is pursuing its own interests.
Trump is pursuing his deranged and corrupt interests, not ours.
