This is the exact same excuse that U-852's Captain Eck gave in his war crimes trial for the Peleus Incident: that he was targeting the wreckage not the survivors (who just happened to be killed). He was found guilty and executed by firing squad.

Q: You outlined the dangers posed by drugs. So what explanation do you have for Trump pardoning the former president of Honduras?
SEN. ROGER MARSHALL: I don't know the details. Happy to look into it. I can't speak to it
Q: Alright. Um. Ok. Like, no thought on it?
MARSHALL: I haven't researched it

Trump is human garbage.
here's Trump's full racist rant about MN's Somali community: "Somalians ripped off that state for billions. And they contribute nothing... Ilhan Omar is garbage. She's garbage. Her friends are garbage. These aren't people that work... They come from hell & do nothing but bitch. We don't want them"

This is the first Thanksgiving for Sophie & Colin Hortman without their parents, Minnesota state Rep. Melissa Hortman and Mark Hortman who were assassinated along with the family dog in an act of political murder. National guards troops were not deployed to the state in response.

In the late 1960s and early 1970s? I remember a lot of shouting at family events and evening parties, especially about Vietnam, women's rights, etc.
These were at least important issues. Trump has divided us horribly, and over *nothing* but a cult of personality

Markwayne Mullin on healthcare: "What the president would like to do is say, hey, if you take care of yourself -- you don't smoke, you don't dip, you're not drinking, you're not overweight, you're working out -- then you should pay less than the guy that obviously is not taking care of himself."

Yes, the war must end.
For that to happen all Putin must do is go back to Russia and cease sending drones and missiles into Ukraine.

She doesn’t even try to hide that she’s a spokesperson for Putin serving in the US Congress. Post after post, day after day, echoing Russian propaganda. Truly sad that people in Pinellas County have chosen this as their representation.

Marge Greene announces she is resigning from Congress, that she doesn’t want to go through a brutal primary against a Trump backed opponent, and says Trump has treated her like a battered wife and has been hateful to her and is trying to destroy her.
