They cannot be given authority to forcibly remove anyone from their vehicle this way. Think about how bad actors would abuse this power.

I’m Hoping For A 300 Seat Democratic Majority….😊💙🌊
Every member of the US house is up for re-election next year. If your rep votes to cut Social Security, Medicare, or anything that YOU PAID INTO, we vote them out.

When politicians tell such obvious lies, it's not just dishonesty. They're announcing they think you're stupid enough to believe them.

It was physically impossible for that boat to reach anywhere close to the United States, even before it was a flaming upside-down wreck, and Tom Cotton knows that. He's not that stupid, he just thinks everyone else is. This kind of dishonesty is inseparable from egotistical arrogance.
Q: What did you see in the second strike?
Cotton: "I saw two survivors trying to flip a boat -- loaded with drugs, bound for the United States -- back over, so they could stay in the fight."

I'm 100% in favor of paywalls you gotta pay for your news you gotta pay the workers but I think some stories should not be paywalled and I feel like things like food recalls or imminent nuclear strikes absolutely should be free

Also, most importantly: It was an attempt to overthrow the democratically elected government of the United States.
Reminder about Jan 6:
it really happened
It was a horror
140+ police were injured
A range of violent weapons were used by attackers
Chants to hang Mike Pence were heard
There was a gallows and guns
Pipe bombs diverted police as mob approached

This is exactly why service members are trained to follow only lawful orders.
Trump’s team is now seemingly throwing Admiral Bradley and SEAL Team 6 under the bus to dodge responsibility for a potentially unlawful strike.
And yes, shame on them too.👇

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”

FYI: the EXAMPLE of what a war crime is in the DoD Law of War manual is EXACTLY what Hegseth did. bsky.app/profile/jjin...

(cont.) that just doesn't seem to want to reckon with the role it's played in making this possible.
Dems joined Reps in empowering Bush. They've historically been pretty okay with the executive branch bombing the Middle East and attempting coups in Latin America.

Warning. Political venting:
I confess I've been getting increasingly frustrated at the Dems when seeing posts about how Trump may go to war without congressional approval and things like that.
Obviously I'm more angry at the republicans here but I just don't know what to do with a party (cont.)

Reminder that all the "pardons" granted to Jan6ers whose convictions were still pending were auto-pen pardons.
Trump claims “any document” signed by Joe Biden is “hereby terminated.”
He calls out executive orders later but obviously “any document” would be much broader and include legislation.
(He can’t legally do that but, as always, we get to watch how far he can push this without repercussions)

A reminder: Trump 1.0 ordered the Afghanistan withdrawal, and Trump 2.0 granted the shooter asylum this past April. Trump 2.0 also dismantled the joint terrorism task force, and gutted our national security apparatus.

Holy shit! Trump has no decency or compassion.
A reporter asked if he planned to attend the funeral of Sarah Beckstrom, the National Guard member who just died.
Instead of offering condolences, he said he would “consider it” and pivoted to bragging about his margin of victory in West Virginia.
