So many better headlines available…why discourage us, NYT? Why not tell readers instead that Hannah Arendt is a sure companion in these times.

This is absolutely right and, though the double tap has finally caught everyone’s attention, the whole venture has been illegal and immoral and should be condemned. The investigation needs to be broadened.
It's great that reporting on the double tap has spotlighted the abject criminality of this Administration.

But don't forget: Venezuela is not waging war on America or Americans, and the men killed were not combatants.

The first strike was every bit as illegal as the second.

ICE admits that up to 50% of arrests in its Chicago raids are "collateral.” These aren't statistics. They are parents taken from their children, neighbors taken from our communities. When does a "collateral" U.S. citizen child's trauma matter? This isn't law enforcement; it's a campaign of terror.
