Guy voted for a rapist and just can’t figure out why his daughters are mad at him. Clearly it must be something wrong with them.

There will be a Pulitzer prize for the journalist who can reveal the details of how this pardon happened.

Rep Pramila Jayapal: "Remember the militarized raid on a Chicago apartment building in the middle of the night where agents rappelled from helicopters and zip-tied sobbing children? It has resulted in ZERO criminal charges two months later.
The cruelty, chaos, and fear are the point."

The attorney for Juan Orlando Hernández (the former Honduran president convicted in the United States on major drug-trafficking charges) announced today that his client has been released from a federal prison in West Virginia after receiving a full pardon from President Trump.

There’s a lot to unpack here…

Bombing vessels in the Caribbean without congressional authorization is already an unconstitutional use of military force.

Hegseth’s double tap on survivors looks like a war crime, and both Armed Services Committees want him in the chair to answer for it.

If this isn’t the biggest bunch of bullshit….
Jacob Wohl and Jack Burkman sent nearly 12k racist robocalls to Detroit voters in 2020, spreading lies designed to scare Black residents away from mail-in voting. No jail time for orchestrating targeted voter suppression in a majority-Black city.

"Republicans will never allow articles of impeachment to be brought to the floor of the House of Representatives, and we know that's the case."

This is a flat-out 100% lie from @hakeem-jeffries.bsky.social and he knows it. Impeachment resolutions are privileged, they can force a vote at any time.
For some reason Democratic leaders seem to prefer telling voters what they won’t be able to do, rather than what they’d like to do.

If Hegseth ordered a war crime and lied about it, shouldn’t Ds try for impeachment? Put Rs on the spot. They might get a few defections.

I can’t promise that this is the first time a Canadian publisher of a beloved children’s book series has publicly condemned the bloodthirsty US secretary of defense’s use of its imagery to smirkingly defend heinous war crimes. I mean who can say.

Well in his defense, when you put a drunk college rapist white nationalist rapist xenophobe homophobe transphobe flag code violating piece of garbage in the position of defense secretary..
You get what you paid for.
Imagine what it does to morale in the military to see the defense secretary hang an admiral out to dry to avoid responsibility for war crimes.

Since I haven’t seen anyone mention this: When the U.S. commits war crimes it puts our troops in danger also, as it gives a green light to other countries that they can do the same to us

I was stunned when I heard this for the first time just a couple of months ago! Why would a country with “the right to due process for anyone in our borders” in our Constitution not want to be a signatory to the ICC? It’s almost as if our Legislators don’t want themselves to be held ACCOUNTABLE! 🤔

I spoke with Betty. She was very emotional and asked me to tell you that “she would love to give each one of you a great big hug.” We’re so close to changing her life. If you can give $5 or $10, it would be awesome. If not, I completely understand, but a repost is free. Thanks very much.
I’ve only posted one GFM, and it’s my intention never to post another. But this one is close to my heart. I know the family personally and have visited with them countless times. If you can help out, it would be great. If not, I completely understand - but a retweet is free.

We will have to come up with a new constitutional framework to deal with the reality of the fact that the United States government was taken over by a criminal enterprise.
