I don't know who needs to hear this, but cops are not allowed to shoot people just because you didn't do what they said.

That is called murder when they do that.

Some cops are working hard to convince people otherwise.

“Posturing for a new era of cooperation” is an insult to everyone’s intelligence.

Either Sen. Murkowski is stupid, thinks everyone else is stupid, or has no remotely reasonable rationale for standing with the indefensible but wants to keep standing with it anyway.

I don’t think she’s stupid.
The strongest action we get from Republican senators on Trump’s destruction of 80-year alliances is tweets saying they hope he’s not serious.

They need to start freaking out more. The Venezuela raid has apparently left Trump thinking he’s all-powerful and now he wants to do it again and again. Beyond the insanity of running foreign policy on short-term whims, it’s also literally the kind of thing that could set off global war.

The American people electing Trump after he staged a coup attempt 5 years ago was a nail in the coffin of our democracy. You can rationalize it all you want - But inflation! But wokeness! - but ultimately it was a societal suicide attempt and probably the dumbest collective voting decision ever made

No, it was a successful coup. None of the people who led it were punished, and are in fact back in power, rewarded for their efforts to break the system by running it. Donald Trump is currently the dictator he attempted to become 5 years ago, and it’s because nobody treated trying as a crime.
We must speak plainly: January 6th was an attempted coup. It was an effort to nullify millions of lawful votes and subvert the will of the American people.

Ein überzeugendes"geopolitisches Signal" gegenüber Peking wäre eine US-Politik, die in langfristige Wettbewerbsfähigkeit der USA investiert.

Überzeugendes "geopolitisches Signal" an Moskau wäre, keine Zweifel an Abschreckung russischer Aggression gegen NATO-Staaten zu lassen.
Die US-Operation gegen Venezuela ist weniger Anti-Drogen-Politik als vielmehr ein geopolitisches Signal an China, Russland und den Iran.

It appears that CBS News, the outlet which today announced that it loves America without apology, was the first outlet to post a report citing US sources confirming the bombing of Caracas was ordered by Trump.

Maybe CBS outhustled everyone— or maybe the Trump admin gave a scoop to CBS
