Breaking NYT:

The Pentagon used a secret aircraft painted to look like a civilian plane in its first boat attack, according to officials briefed on the matter.

The laws of armed conflict forbid combatants from feigning civilian status.

That is a war crime called "perfidy."

I say this all the time when I speak publicly about elections. The biggest political party in the US are non-voters.

But it's not too late.

1. Register to vote. www.vote.org/voter-regist...
2. Make a plan to vote.
3. Vote by election day (in many places there is early voting or vote by mail). 🗳️

No footage should be a get out of jail free card and automatic charges for the goons who arrested him.
The affidavit notably reveals that none of the six Border Patrol agents who were involved in the targeted enforcement operation on the afternoon of Jan. 8 had body camera footage capturing the shooting.

A felon who married an immigrant is telling a lot of y’all that the problems in this country all stem from felons and immigrants.

But keep buying that stupid red hat that’s made in China.

Trump’s savvy decision to have an ICE officer publicly execute a protester could pay big political dividends by distracting the country from the Jeffrey Epstein scandal and the nation’s weak economy.

Julie K. Brown is a reporter for the Miami Herald who did groundbreaking work on Epstein beginning in 2018, including groundbreaking work on the disgusting coverup by Alex Acosta.

Her travel itinerary was released with some of the Epstein files. It appears the DOJ was monitoring her in 2019.

Tru, if this is true its impeachable. But that’s meaningless. How many impeachments would that make now? How many felony convictions? And he’s still president. And he can’t be charged for anything in office. The country is broken.
If this is true, it is the most impeachable offense ever.

Did Trump just put up a memorial for himself at the Kennedy Center? I smell a wonderful surprise present coming! I for one am stoked that we can say Merry Christmas again.

Opinion | I believed Hillary Clinton was a sex trafficker because one of her donors owned a pizza restaurant and "cheese pizza" has the same initials as "child pornography." Here's why I don't think Donald Trump's multi-decade best friendship with a sex trafficker connects him to sex trafficking.

Such a sad, pathetic, thin-skinned man-child. I’m sure Canada thinks it’s the best 10% they’ve ever spent. Good for them.
