George W Bush’s administration found lawyers to justify torturing prisoners
Now Trump found lawyers to justify murdering fisherman they say are smuggling drugs
This is why Mark Kelly and his colleagues made the video telling troops to follow only legal orders
And why Trump threatened to kill them

I mean, look, I'm not a reporter, so who am I to talk?
But on a day where the president both just called a woman reporter "Piggy" and is celebrating someone who had people bone saw apart one of my colleagues, I might just be a little ready to defend my colleagues and profession.
But that's just me

Odd that the DoJ is opening an investigation into the Epstein files since they said in July that there was no client list and nothing to release.

The Sociopath-In-Chief couldn't be bothered to even turn his head in the direction of a man in the midst of a medical emergency who collapsed in his office. Completely incapable of empathy, the EPSTEIN Files can't be released soon enough.

The Trump administration tried to hide how taxpayer dolllars are being spent by taking down the OMB's apportionment database.
In response to this illegal removal, we sued the administration—and we won!

it's time for journos to start asking Johnson meta questions
"Speaker, on 5 occasions last week you said 'I haven't seen it' when asked about news events w/big implications for public policy. Do you ever read the news, and do you agree it's problematic for the Speaker to be so woefully uninformed?"

Trump has made it clear time and again that the DOJ operates at his discretion
If you’re a perceived enemy, you’re a target. Damn the law. Damn the evidence.
This is not how democracy is supposed to function

After Justice Powell wrote the first ruling letting corporations buy elections, he was succeeded by Anthony Kennedy, who would engineer the Citizens United precedent once Roberts/Alito were installed.
Knowing that, watch this 1988 ABC News story.
Yes, it was a master plan.
