i'd go even further and say there is a reason even nixon kept this kind of stuff to himself. you would have to go back quite a bit to find a point at which is acceptable for a president to say anything like this *in public*, to say nothing of in the oval office.
I don’t want to be pollyannish about the past, but it was basically inconceivable twenty years ago that a president would say this publicly
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."

Seems like the only point for them is so they can blow up stuff and watch it on a big screen. Like juveniles with a video game. If they have any grasp that they're killing living, breathing humans, they don't seem to care. Clearly, they're not interested in the drugs, or the truth. I feel sick.

A Narcissist Develops Dementia
Dr Bandy X Lee said Trump may be a Malignant Narcissist.
With dementia what's next?

- Projection and Blame Magnified
- Increased Emotional Volatility

Exactly. The alleged war on drugs is in no way a declared war on a country. I say 'alleged' because pardoning the convicted former Honduras president, who boasted he aided trafficking of over 500 TONS of cocaine directly to the US belies this war on drugs crap.
The whole operation is mass murder.

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 U.S. has conducted 19 strikes on alleged drug-carrying boats, killing at least 76 people.
Remember: no judge or jury has found these boats were trafficking drugs. We're simply taking Trump's word for it.
He’s unilaterally acting as judge, jury, and executioner.
This is a danger to us all.

The boat’s cargo was alleged to have been fentanyl.
Hernandez was convicted of smuggling 400 tons of cocaine into the U.S.. He was sentenced to 45 years behind bars in June 2024. Less than 18 months after sentencing, Trump pardoned and released Hernandez.
