STEPHANOPOULOS: Do you support the pardon of the former Honduran president?

SCHMITT: I'm not familiar w/ the facts or circumstances

S: What do you mean you're not familiar? It's been front page news

SCHMITT: You spew Democrat talking points every single week, which is why your ratings are so bad

Why would a lawmaker agree to an interview on an issues show just to disparage its viewers?

In this Tom Cotton speculates that one of the shipwrecked men “taking off his tshirt” was a hostile act that required his execution by missile from miles away.

One of the most insane, sickening things I’ve ever heard from a US leader
WELKER: Lawmakers say the 2 men appeared to raise their arms potentially to surrender. Why did Admiral Bradley interpret these actions as anything other than them trying to survive?

TOM COTTON: They were sitting or standing on top of a capsized boat. They weren't floating helplessly in the water

What did you think they were able to do at that point? Launch their Iron Man gear?

Ilhan Omar: "It's completely disgusting. These are Americans that he is calling garbage ... it's also really important for us to remember that this kind of hateful rhetoric and this level of dehumanizing can lead to dangerous actions by people who listen to the president."

Later in the clip Bessent says he just divested from his soybean farm “this week.” I would love to know what that actually means when he opens by saying he still runs it and he has family working on it.
BESSENT: I run a soybean farm

BRENNAN: You don't own one. You invest in it

BESSENT: People in my family go out and work on it

What the fuck, man
WELKER: Is there any hard evidence showing this particular boat was headed to the US?

TOM COTTON: That didn't come up in my briefing

WELKER: Are you comfortable having the US target a boat that you're not sure is heading to the US?

COTTON: I'm not just comfortable with it -- I want to continue it

The only thing Clemens was acquitted of was lying to Congress, and his eligibility for regular election to the Hall of Fame expired in 2022. His entry was voted on every year of his eligibility, he just never received enough votes. 🙄

At some point someone just needs to say “you are an indecent person, you are lying to cover the slaughter of defenseless men, you know you are lying, and even under the tenets of your own professed faith you will certainly burn in hell if you continue down this path”
WELKER: Isn't it possible that even the act of taking off a t shirt could've been part of an attempt to get attention for help?

TOM COTTON: Or it could've been an attempt to signal to another cartel boat to come pick them up and pick up the cargo

What Senator Cotton says here would be a bad defense for the Germans convicted in WWI and WWII war crimes trials -- including for firing on shipwrecked in fully operational lifeboats.

This line of response hurts the US and US servicemembers. It will cause long-term damage unless we get this right.

It’s important to remember there are two scandals here:

1. The Administration has likely committed war crimes.

2. But the entire operation - which now includes two dozen attacks - is illegal. In our democracy, the President CANNOT wage war without the consent of the people.
BERMAN: Did you see any evidence of them trying to use a radio in the video you saw?

TOM COTTON: Well I saw lots of evidence of them standing on the boat that had been capsized

BERMAN: That wasn't my question. Did you see any evidence?

COTTON: No, I didn't

This week's coverage from @atrupar.com is so, so depressing, but so, so important. The GOP has decided to revel in & celebrate Trump's high seas murder campaign. The bloodthirsty & dehumanizing language they're using is bone-chilling.

In this day, the best gift you can give people you love is freedom from misinformation and corporate-controlled media. Mr. Rupar digs past the sludge and extracts the real truth. He's been sparing me mental fatigue for years now and I highly recommend you let him do the same for you and yours.

Trump openly admitting he is corrupt. Stunning..
And nothing will happen.
Trump rages that Henry Cuellar didn’t pay him back for a pardon by switching parties, blasting Cuellar for a “lack of LOYALTY.”

In other words, Trump admits he was trying to use his pardon power to buy Republicans a House seat.
