As a 49ers fan, I'm watching this Panthers game with hope that somehow my depleted and injured team can stay in the game with the Eagles tomorrow.

Note from a veteran police reporter:

NAMING law officers who use lethal force under any and every circumstance IS NOT doxxing. It is journalism. Officers who invoke lethal force are ID'd publicly as a standard -- or were when we were a republic. Asdress, no. Name, rank, posting, etc. -- yes.

Naming a police officer is not doxxing. We aren’t supposed to have secret police in America.

Himes: "I was delighted to hear that Tom Cotton, chairmen of the Senate Intel Committee, has been in regular contact with the admin. I've had zero outreach and no D I'm aware of has. So apparently we're now in a world where the legal obligation to keep Congress informed only applies to your party."

Venezuela is the new Sudetenland. Europe should not appease Trump like it did Hitler. The result will be the same.

Either it was a limited operation merely to arrest Maduro and move on, or, it is an ongoing major regime change committment that will open up a transition including international and private sector partners. It really can't be both

Again and again only words! The EU must act. And even here there is no condemnation of the illegal actions of the US. Again you are afraid to hurt the feelings of the international bully Donald Trump. Pathetic ! I hope your words will protect Greenland 🇬🇱 when the moment comes.

The US is not interested in the wellbeing of the Venezuelan people. They see oil $ and those profits will not flow onto the Venezuelan treasury, but will be confiscated (stolen) by the US. Besides, this is just a trial for the annex of Greenland. Rubio can say no, but they lie to their own Congress.

I'll point out that Hans Frank was not just Hitler's lawyer, he was also the head of the Academy for German Law. Wilhelm Frick was also a doctor of law and made similar legally positivistic arguments. Neither ever held a gun. Both were hanged.

In 1964, LBJ exploited the Gulf of Tonkin incident as a pretext for Vietnam.

In 1983, Reagan needed a pretext to invade Grenada to distract from his failures in Lebanon.

In 2003, GWB exploited 9/11 and lied about WMDs to occupy Iraq.

Trump needs a distraction from his pedophilia. How pathetic.

Nixon insisted the bombing of Cambodia was just targeting Viet Cong outposts there and not meant to undermine its government, but the bombings destabilized the Lon Nol government and paved the way for the Khmer Rouge’s killing fields and the massacre of more than a million people.
NBC's sources said that "the potential mission in Mexico is not designed to undermine the Mexican government." But that's what it will do if the US is doing CIA drone strikes on Mexican soil over the objections of the president.

I’m not gonna lie. Our country is in trouble. And it will take all of us to get us out of it. If you’re not involved in a pro-democracy organization, now is the time. Be that person.

When we organize, we win.
