Marco Rubio is reportedly saying Maduro will stand trial in US courts.
Which means it’s now the US administration’s position that US courts can hold foreign presidents, but not the US president, accountable for crimes.

We must support the musician Trump is targeting for refusing to play the “Trump Kennedy Center.” The Trump regime is vowing to destroy musician Chuck Redd for boycotting the Kennedy Center. This is right from the fascist playbook. My article deanobeidallah.substack.com/p/we-must-su...

Had Bari Weiss just ran the story, it would have been seen by a couple million people tops. The bootleg has now gone viral, and may end up being the most-watched 60 Minutes segment ever. It might be time to rename the Streisand Effect.

I don't think people are really processing the fact that the sitting U.S. President and his team — and maybe the Supreme Court — and maybe half the Congress — want to force us to accept that we should obey the President and not the Constitution.
I don't know what news would be bigger than that.
