I find truth, and try to spread it. It's not always pretty.
If you kill people blown clear of a troop carrier, it doesn't raise any pesky "high seas" rules. Just UCMJ articles.

Trump ordered Hegseth to kill them all is what I'M hearing with this.

Oh, if the paper thin reasoning for destroying those boats doesn't meet the minimum, it is extrajudicial murder without jurisdiction.

Of it DOES fly, THEN it's war crimes to shoot those in the water. Semantics matter in law.

Technically, the killing of the stranded survivors would be the war crime. The "war on terrorism" justification is thin, but might technically fly in the Hague.

If this doesn't happen, all I ask is that Carville shuts his piehole for the rest of his life and stops being an anchor around the Democratic party's neck in the foreseeable future. Because his schtick of "wait and see" is getting super old.

Not all racists are MAGA, but all MAGA are deeply racist.

And scared.

People pay money for that fish wrapper. Used to be a beacon, now a flickering flame of it's former journalistic glory days...

Stop being such a stupid bint, Samantha. Maybe then you'll get a passing grade.

Or not. You seem well on your way to making a fine trad wife.

And every ship's captain that carried the order down. And the OOW on the bridge during each event. Leave the enlisted folks out of it... because bucking brass just ends you up at Captain's Mast.

As a Navy vet, I would expect no less. They knew better.

Ah, how the turns table.

Lack of education and using the pulpit as part of a concerted propaganda blitz that started when the Southern Strategy was adopted by Atwater, Nixon, and Reagan.

Not a hard question.

Non-zero, but pretty low. Unless the Secret Service or FBI took the transcripts and told her not to disseminate them, she would totally be showing them off.

Of course, if the SS or FBI has them, the phone call could be coming from inside the house.

There was nothing the shooter did to improve the plight of Afghani asylum-seekers in the US. It was revenge, and acting out in a familiar, violent, way.

He was aiming at the top, and a couple folks in camo stopped him. If it was capitol police, the same might have happened. Violence begets.
November 28, 2025 at 2:12 AM
To be fair, the perpetrator probably would have shot whoever got in his way. The National Guardsmen likely saved a couple Capitol Police the same fate.

It was a poorly conceived and planned assassination attempt. The actions of a madman who missed his mark.
November 27, 2025 at 3:44 PM
So... I still don't understand motive here. Other than the worst assassination attempt known to man.

I want to vote for Aftyn... but not live in Tennessee.

I hope she wins.

Seth doesn't have Kimmel's longevity in the public eye, nor the good will that Kimmel got from the political center of the country. If Meyers can only rally left-wingers to his side, it might be rough.

/Would like to see him beat Trump at his own game, but his audience is smallish.

Just dildoes and surprise buttsecks looks all the way down. Patel isn't the MOST incompetent person that Stinky has hired, but he's one of the most pathetic about his incompetence.

Absolute clown shoes.

DC is the only place where the Guard is technically legal in their current deployment. They were just some guys doing their job, regardless of the suspect's motives.

Celebrating their demise is... decidedly uncool.

Dude. No. There are people that this might apply to in this world, but a couple random guardsmen?
