We are witnessing the same thing happening in our government now where due process is ignored in the arrest and detainment of immigrants and shipwrecked men are turned into a bloody mist on the ocean surface without a second thought.

Today in History, 1941: Hitler issues his “Night and Fog” (Nacht und Nebel) decree, ordering that members of the resistance working to undermine the Nazi military be arrested and brought for trial by special courts, circumventing conventions governing the treatment of prisoners. /1

Nova Scotia is taking the fight to MAGA.
Last March they pulled all the booze off the shelves. Now they are selling it all off in a Xmas firesale-with proceeds going to the food bank.
And then they are done with US purchases.

Doesn't need any intro....
So far, in less than one year, Donald Trump has issued over TEN TIMES as many pardons as he did in his entire four-year first term. That’s a lot of criminals released onto our streets.

Hmmm....smells like "murder" or "war crimes" to me....
“‘You’re either on the team or you’re not,’ Hegseth told Holsey, according to notes from a participant. ‘When you get an order, you move out fast and don’t ask questions.’”
Exclusive: The four-star admiral in charge of Caribbean operations had concerns about the legality of the boat strikes. Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth asked him to retire shortly after they started.

This man may be the most racist president this country has ever had, and twelve presidents owned slaves
Trump: "It’s a hellhole right now. And those Somalians should be out of here. They've destroyed our country. And all they do is complain, complain, complain. You have her. She’s always talking about the Constitution provides me with – go back to your own country and figure out your constitution."

"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."
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.

"Kill them all." Nobody in Canada should be attempting any diplomatic or economic deals with the United States. It is a rogue nation that is out of control. #cdnpoli #uspoli
