The boats the regime is claiming are going from Venezuela to the US would need to refuel over 20 times to get to Miami.
They are lying to us.

WHY DO PEOPLE TAKE PICTURES OF THEIR MEALS THEN POST THEM ON SOCIAL MEDIA?….I don’t know…just sounds crass. Ill mannered .Maybe I empathize with food insecure people too much. Still, ignorant behavior

So when the gods accept human sacrifice, it's fine, but when they leave and a woman takes matters into her own hands (& knife) to call them back, suddenly it's a problem 🙄

I had to take 2 breaks while reading this book, but it’s very well written. We owe her. It’s the least we can do for her memory. There still seems to be a perception that when this happens to a male it is somehow worse than a female. It’s about Epstein/Maxwell heinous crimes, but also gender issues.

Note the word 'authorized' rather than the word 'ordered'. They are planning to blame the people at lower levels of authority and responsibility - letting Hegseth/Felon completely off the hook.
Last week: In response to WaPo’s story on the Sept. 2 boat strikes, the Pentagon says “This entire narrative is completely false.”
Today: The White House confirms that a 2nd strike happened and that “Secretary Hegseth authorized Admiral Bradley to conduct these kinetic strikes”

It's great that reporting on the double tap has spotlighted the abject criminality of this Administration.
But don't forget: Venezuela is not waging war on America or Americans, and the men killed were not combatants.
The first strike was every bit as illegal as the second.

I hope someone draws this wonderful story about Tom Stoppard's Arcadia and the power of the arts to help us see things differently, to the attention of our Education Secretary. Do read it, it will lift your spirits.

Today, local authorities confirmed the victims of the Stockton shooting were just 8, 9, 14, and 21 years old — and that the attack was likely targeted. Our hearts break for their families and the entire Stockton community.
