Two things we learned today:
1. Pete Hegseth murdered *suspected* drug runners.
2. Donald Trump pardoned a *convicted* drug trafficker.
That’s where we are, folks.

So Trump just pardoned the former prez of Honduras, who:
-took a $1M bribe from El Chapo:
-was aided his in clemency campaign by Roger Stone
-ran for reelection despite a law against it, thus setting off political violence that killed dozens.

How a democracy deals with traitors.
After Trump's plot with Bolsonaro to bust him out of jail and get him to the US failed, Brazilian authorities accelerated the process for him to begin serving his 27-year sentence. Bolsonaro was ordered today to begin serving jail time tomorrow. www.washingtonpost.com/world/2025/1...
Bolsonaro out of appeals, will start 27-year sentence for coup attempt
The former Brazilian president will begin his sentence in a specially prepared cell at federal police headquarters in Brasília.

Rep. Raskin, who led the House impeachment prosecution after Jan. 6 has been a longtime critic of Trumpist unconstitutional misconduct. He knows a thug when he sees one.
What unlawful orders have been given so far?
Rep Raskin says: Deployment of troops in LA & DC; destruction of boats on the high seas w/out a declaration of war from Congress; lack of due process are all examples of unlawful orders.
Keep your oath to uphold the Constitution, US troops.

I get why some people on the left are wary of Dems' 'Cop-Spook-Troop' formula for candidate recruitment, but on occasions like this it's useful to have a guy like Kelly who can absolutely level Trump.
Sen. Mark Kelly has released a statement.

Here's something the pre-MAHA RFK Jr would have sued the shit out of.
The EPA will approve two new pesticides containing “forever chemicals” and relax a reporting rule for companies who make products with forever chemicals.
The moves come after a $60 million lobbying blitz from the forever chemical industry.
Where is the MAHA outcry?

Pizzled Pete always keeps kicking the skateboard into his own groin.
MAGA dimwit Pete Hegseth thinks he's pleasing the Audience of One by "fighting back" but all he's doing is drawing more attention to the question of whether Trump is issuing illegal orders, which was the whole point of the Dem video in the first place.

Trump also just posted these photos to Truth Social, including the one with Mamdani standing next to a portrait of FDR. Trump mentioned Mamdani asked if he could have his picture taken there.
"It's an amazing portrait in the cabinet room," Trump said. "So he's a big fan of the New Deal, I guess..."
