Hegseth repeatedly misled the public about this strike.
The boat was headed for Suriname, not the U.S.
It wasn't carrying fentanyl.
The survivors didn't "radio for backup."
This strike was illegal, and Hegseth is trying to cover up what happened by refusing to release video.

i don’t (want to) believe 40% of parents condone it but the point stands otherwise
I may have underestimated the national psychological effect of Trump’s devastating political career.
Most children today have only known the Trump era of America, where a president does and says the most mean, immoral, disgusting things. And many (40%?) of their parents excuse it or condone it.

The lawless killing spree continues.
The administration justifies this slaughter by claiming there’s an armed conflict.
But it won’t even tell the U.S. public who the supposed enemies are.
Of course, there’s no armed conflict.
And outside armed conflict, we call premeditated killing murder.

"That's what the defendant, Hannah Dugan, said" when she helped a defendant charged with domestic violence evade arrest, the prosecutor says.

For people who aren't steeped in the Supreme Court (and I don't claim to be), it can be hard to fully grasp just how cynical, misleading, and dishonest some of these arguments can be. (Fortunately in this case, the justices were like, "um WTF are you talking about," which made it easier).

Aragorn's legitimacy as king was proven not as orc-slayer or warlord, but in the Houses of Healing, where he used the athelas plant (sneered at by the herb-master) to heal the wounded.

This NYT story failed the reader by not digging deeper. One subject dropped out of college after one year (five years ago) and lists "Windows" as his skillset. Story should be: young conservatives who blame immigrants for their personal failures and whose lives won't be improved w/ fewer immigrants
