America’s strength isn’t rooted in power alone, but in our allies across Europe and around the world. Weakening those ties weakens us. In a world of rising authoritarianism, partnerships remain one of our greatest strategic advantages.

zero percent chance this is true
EXCLUSIVE: Pete Hegseth ordered the U.S. military on Sept. 2 to kill all 11 people on a suspected drug-smuggling boat because they were on an internal list of military targets, the commander overseeing the operation told lawmakers, according to multiple sources.
Admiral told lawmakers everyone on alleged drug boat was on a list of military targets
Adm. Frank Bradley said U.S. intelligence had identified the 11 people on the boat and determined the military was authorized to kill them as part of Trump’s campaign against alleged drug-smuggling vessels.

Russia wants the EU to collapse because it’s a military rival.
It needs a pretext for getting rid of the EU that isn’t territorial expansion, though.
So it advances the idea that the EU isn’t democratic (as if Russia was).
The richest man in the world falls for it hook, line, and sinker.

WELKER: Lawmakers say the 2 men appeared to raise their arms potentially to surrender. Why did Admiral Bradley interpret these actions as anything other than them trying to survive?

They keep talking about whether these guys were going to get “back in the fight.”
What fight? Were they even armed? They were dudes in a speedboat that got hit with a missile from miles away. The US could remotely monitor them struggling for life from across the globe, they didn’t even have radios.

Yes, the entire murderous campaign is premised on the GOP pretending we live in some kind of Breaking Bad Extended Universe where drug cartels are peer-state enemies with fleets, Air Forces, and maniacally dedicated soldiers who will continue “their mission” after being blown to bits in the ocean.
He might have been signaling the reverse-vampires, or the reptiloid mothership or something.

By the way this is why I know they’re lying when they say they knew who was on the boats and they’re all on a military list. The US military had somehow built a dossier on Robert Sanchez, the boat pilot living in a cinderblock house and earning $100 a month? He was next on the kill list after Osama?
Everyone seems to have forgotten but the AP actually went to Venezuela and found some of these men. They aren’t terminator-like cartel warriors, ready to give their life to ship kilos. They’re random dudes from small towns - bus drivers, fishermen - recruited for a payday. apnews.com/article/trum...
Trump has accused boat crews of being narco-terrorists. The truth, AP found, is more nuanced
One was a fisherman struggling to eke out a living on $100 a month. Another was a career criminal. A third was a former military cadet.

There is no point in debating someone who says a man taking off his shirt as he sits atop his destroyed vessel is a dangerous act that merits an air strike. That person is lying and will lie no matter what you say. At that point you need to tell him that you know he’s lying.

The world needs to know Trump’s US is a country which will watch two stranded men fight for life on a camera feed for an hour, only to dispatch a $100k anti-armor missile to turn their bodies to pulp, and then laughingly describe it as military necessity. Show the world how we’re killing for sport.
