So, now we now, thanks to @wsj.com reporting, that Donald Trump's staff at Mar-a-Lago was regularly sent to make house calls, providing spa services to Jeff Epstein. It was common knowledge among staff taht he was a creep who exposed himself during those visits....

Given the types of bad actors on today’s war fighting stage, they’ll pay that price, and more.
Must read by @marknevitt.bsky.social on why killing survivors at sea is a moral & strategic disaster for all of us:

"If America chooses a path where killing defenseless survivors becomes acceptable, American servicemembers will pay the price for that choice."

Here are US military lawyers stating clearly that Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth's "kill everybody" orders are either (1) war crimes or (2) murder.

Either way, expect prosecutions in the future.

"If the U.S. military operation is not an armed conflict of any kind, these orders to kill helpless civilians clinging to the wreckage of a vessel our military destroyed would subject everyone from SECDEF down to the individual who pulled the trigger to prosecution under U.S. law for murder."

Every single congressional Democrat needs to be out there, right now, insisting that Pete Hegseth resign right now and announcing that he will be held accountable for committing war crimes.

If you do not demand accountability here and now, they will only become more emboldened.
Exclusive: Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth gave an order to “kill everybody” in the first strike on suspected drug boats in the Caribbean. After two men survived, the mission commander ordered a second strike to comply with Hegseth’s instructions, according to two sources.

I wanted to share probably the most important sermon I’ve given and it’s while I’m being arrested. It’s torture pure and simple what happens at #Broadview. I’m ok, though I was thrown to the ground and choked with my pectoral cross. A review of the video shows I was peaceful - did I deserve this?

We followed a court order and worked quickly to make sure that nearly 700,000 Wisconsinites who rely on FoodShare, including about 270,000 kids, had food to eat.

Now, President Trump wants to yank that money away from hungry kids, families, and seniors in Wisconsin? Hell no.
