This is a map of U.S. District 2 AZ. Approx. 59,000 square miles. Now, you would THINK that it’s a geographical possibility that Eli Crane the U.S. Representative for this area would live here.
But he doesn’t. He lives outside the district. This IS legal in AZ.

Let me be clear: Congress authorizes any military action into Venezuela, not the president. I'll keep holding the Administration accountable for their actions.

Rand Paul: "We've never in our past decided just to shoot smugglers who are unarmed without even proof they're smuggling anything. So I think this is a horrendous thing that should stop. I think it's illegal & immoral... the kids in the military - I'm not for sending them down there to die for oil"

Kelly: I wish someone would tell him how math works. You know, that the prices are going to go down 500 or 600%. Anyone who's been through like the sixth grade by then knows that that is not a thing.

Pay attention to language. This administration has substituted “Democrat Party” from “Democratic Party.” This is intentional and is meant to take away the power associated with the word “Democratic.”

Remember: The oligarchs who control our economy and democracy seek to divide us so they can become more powerful.
They want us to turn on each other so we don't look up and see where all the wealth and power have gone.
Don't fall for it.

And even if you're right, the punishment for drug smuggling isn't death.
Rand Paul: "This is an insane policy. It's inconsistent. It's not war. It's not the way we've ever done this. If we can blow up a boat in the ocean, what about when they get to Miami & put it in a truck? Can you shoot a grenade launcher at the truck? No! We arrest people b/c sometimes we're wrong."

You can be the most loving, compassionate person in the world... but... if you’re not actively guarding your mind...you will become desensitized to human suffering...in ways that are far beyond what you would ever consider acceptable.
They’re not hiding the brutality anymore.
They want you to see it.
They want you to get used to it.👇
