I know the press has lowered the bar for this one guy to such a degree that presidential is no longer visible and you need a spelunking crew to reach it, but it's nevertheless worth remembering that knowing about use of US military force abroad is a core part his job. Article II and all that.
Reporter: If there were a second strike that killed wounded people, would that be legal?
Trump: I don’t know that happened and Pete said he did not even know what people were talking about. I wouldn’t have wanted a second strike. The first strike was very lethal. It was fine.

Reporter: You have made so clear how you want to keep drugs out of the US—
Trump: Right
Reporter: Can you explain why you would pardon a notorious drug trafficker?
Trump: If somebody sells drugs in that country, that doesn’t mean you arrest the president

RFK Jr. is obviously a dangerous fraudster. But he would not have the power he currently has without being aided by the Republican Congress—in some cases, by members who should know better.
I despise RFK Jr. but I also harbor a different flavor of contempt for doctors like Cassidy and Barasso.

When a politician says: we’ll deregulate health insurance and send you a “freedom account” check, ask: freedom to buy what? If insurers don’t offer real policies or can cherry-pick only healthy people, that money is a coupon for a store that’s not open.

If you want to know why Hegseth is panicking about reminders that there is accountably for giving or carrying out illegal orders, it’s likely because he knows he has given illegal orders to murder people.

heavily ironic given trump’s confusion over legislation, EOs and pardons that he is supposed to have signed.
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)
