“Ah, just one more thing, sir. You’re blowing up those boats, saying they’re filled with drugs headed for the US. But then you go and pardon the guy who brought in 400 tons of cocaine. That’s billions of doses. Help me understand that.”

Department of Defense Law of War Manual, Sec. 18.3.2.1 states the "requirement" to refuse illegal orders.
What’s its key example? Wait for it . . . It’s "orders to fire upon the shipwrecked."

any democrat that talks about “turning the page” on this chapter and not full accountability for these people is not meeting the moment
This is a disturbing post on X by a disturbed individual. Pete Hegseth is a murderer.

He and Trump must be held accountable for this. It was in fact first-degree murder, with zero excuses and zero defense. 83 counts so far.

I can no longer say "unbelievable" about anything Trump does, but it's still remarkable.
The president of the country which used to be undisputed leader of the free world, lets an ally be battered with civilians killed every night, refusing to close the skies, then does this:

Keep in mind that this serial liar also promised a hundred times during the campaign that he would be able to end the war “in 24 hours” with “one phone call” to Putin because he has “a great relationship” with him, “knows just what to say to him,” & “it won’t even be that hard.”

If you believe Trump is sane, then Congress has the power to impeach.
If you believe he's not sane, then we have the 25th Amendment.
Either way - people in Congress and the Cabinet swore an oath. It's time to uphold it.

The President of the United States just called for Democratic members of Congress to be executed. "HANG THEM", he posted.
If you're a person of influence in this country and you haven't picked a side, maybe now would be the time to pick a fucking side.

According to NBC News, citing several senators, Marco Rubio informed them that Trump's proposed "peace plan" is actually a list of Russia's wishes, not an official U.S. proposal.

The news that a national lockdown could have been avoided is shattering. My thoughts and prayers are with everyone who lost loved ones during the pandemic.
Kemi Badenoch should apologise on behalf of the Conservative Party. This tragedy must never be repeated.

This will surely surprise most Americans today, but historians have recently discovered that before Donald Trump, it was actually incredibly rare for a president to demand the public execution of this political opponents and press critics.
