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."

If there is a God, which I doubt, I am certain He does not trifle Himself by intervening in the outcomes of sporting events. But it is at least plausible that a Pope from Chicago got busy tugging at the hem of His garment and begging before the Bears began that second half.

If we had a normal President, he'd express human decency and offer condolences for the MURDERED U.S. citizen under his watch.

Instead, we get a paragraph of propaganda and excuses that put the blame on the victim – a tactic Trump has used on women for decades.

Disgusting.

Columbian President Petro: “A clan of pedophiles wants to destroy our democracy. To keep Epstein's list from coming out, they send warships to threaten our neighbor with invasion for their oil.”

Democrats: “It is critical that the Trump administration provide an immediate Gang of Eight briefing.”

“Oh but if Democrats did that Republicans would just vote it down, wouldn’t convict and would rally their base to defend Trump’s crimes.”

Yeah, okay, make them do that then.

Corrupt tech billionaires are buying power to tilt the world in their favor.

Even the co-founder of Y Combinator is saying it. ⬇️

The radical death cult rising from Silicon Valley venture capital is metastasizing rapidly.

It's an existential threat to democracy and humanity.

Watching the spiked 60 Minutes episode on YouTube, thanks to @phillewis.bsky.social. It's not like the Trump admin didn't have its say. At about 4:15 mark, there is footage of Trump saying CECOT was "great facilities, very strong facilities"

Trump suggests Khashoggi had it coming: "You're mentioning someone that was extremely controversial. A lot of people didn't like that gentleman that you're talking about. Whether you like him or didn't like him, things happen. But he knew nothing about it. You don't have to embarrass our guest."
