We keep running with ‘illegal orders’ …. We all know these assholes are educated to the same level as fleas on a dog but ‘illegal’ means unlawful, criminal, etc. according to the Nuremberg trials military personnel should not follow ILLEGAL orders.

I understand there is no legal requirement to comply with FBI. Let FBI, DOJ & Kegs at DOD do their own work and charge if they can. Don’t help them.

Mom calls Houston police for help; HPD turns the kid over to ICE; John Whitmire at first claims they didn't do that, then reverses himself because his earlier statements simply weren't true, but says not to politicize it. 🤮
Emmanuel, a 15-year-old with intellectual disabilities, wandered away from his mom’s fruit stand in October.
She reported him missing to Houston police. But instead of reuniting them, the city turned him over to ICE.
“They’re failing all of us,” his mom said.

The Trump administration’s war on tourism in red states continues
National parks have SO MANY people from other countries (since they get real vacations!)
And they spend a lot of money on hotels, food, souvenirs, etc.
This is unbelievably dumb, it will destroy entire tourist towns

this guy fundamentally has zero fucking clue how health insurance works and how much health insurance premiums cost
NEW: Donald Trump says he wants ACA funds to end after 2025
“I’d rather not" extend them, he tells reporters on AF1. "I don’t want to extend them for two years. I’d rather not extend them at all."
He wants cash to go "directly" to people. Unclear how that'd work.

The Joker vs The Skipper Thanksgiving Dinner Showdown!

Curious how Sophia, (remember a teenager who wasn't on trial), being arrested by EIGHT officers didn't make front page news. She didn't get a supportive statement from the PM or the Free Speech Union for some reason
Here's a thread from Twitter shared with Sophia's permission in which she finally is able to talk about Graham using the police as HIS personal goon squad and getting Sophia arrested at home by EIGHT armed police officers, somewhat putting the standard Heathrow armed cops in perspective.

You can’t think, it can’t reason, and it has no emotion or personality so it cannot be your friend.
