There may be some ambiguity about the specific crime that was committed as it gets murky in international waters absent a declared war but there’s no universe in which it’s lawful to kill wounded, unarmed civilians clinging to debris and the ‘experts say it may be unlawful’ stuff drives me batty.

Only fist fight I ever won as a kid was in 10th or 11th against a guy called Sledge who kid you not called his fists Thunder and Lightning. I won because he slipped in the mud, and resolved then & there to name my fists “Are you ok, Sledgiewski?”
I named my fists Common and Sense because I'm about to bring the Paine
I named my fists Blood and Meridian because I’m fixing to Judge your ass.

I'm really glad to see someone like Kelly finally saying this. bsky.app/profile/atru...
Mark Kelly: "This president, when he says things like 'third world countries,' what is he really saying? I think what he's saying is he doesn't want brown people in our country. And that's disturbing. It's un-American."

In case you’re wondering why Pete Hegseth is freaking out about a congressional video reminding the military not to participate in illegal orders:
To put a finer point on this whole thing: "Two people with direct knowledge of the operation" — presumably uniformed military leaders — are accusing the U.S. Secretary of Defense of personally ordering specific war crimes. That's a historic accusation.
Textbook war crime/extrajudicial killing
"Two survivors were clinging to the smoldering wreck. The Special Operations commander overseeing the Sept. 2 attack ... ordered a second strike to comply with Hegseth’s instructions."

Sarah Beckstrom seems like she was a wonderful person who had a bright future ahead of her. Such a tragedy.
Sarah Beckstrom's ex-boyfriend told NBC News she dreamed of becoming an FBI special agent.
She didn't want to deploy to D.C.
"She hated it. She cried about it."
But she started visiting monuments and museums and started enjoying it.
May she rest in peace.

The DC shooting story is really getting to me because we literally trained this man as a child soldier for a death squad in a forever war and Stephen Miller et al want to blame it on other cultures? It's our culture, American culture, that killed that woman.

Sen. Mark Kelly delivered a warning every American should hear: a president who calls for lawmakers to be hanged for speaking truth is stochastic terrorism. He’s trying to rule by fear.

The grading for one question said that cellulose and oxygen were produced in wood burning proving it exothermic 🤦♂️

How many times exactly does Trump have to hand billions to rich people or destroy the safety net before the media stops calling him a populist?
Every article by a 'savvy' political analyst reads like a focus group transcript with a low-information voter.
