Bottom line:

ALL of the strikes are extrajudicial killings under international law, murder under domestic law.

That's true of a first strike on any of these boats, & also of Sept 2 strike killing shipwrecked survivors (which would *also* be illegal in an armed conflict, but the US isn't in one).

They are also for anyone who has a mobility disability — not just for wheelchair users.

The other side of that is using shame that way stigmatizes disability, similar to school lunch problem where it’s better to just give it to everyone, but without knowing which accommodations you mean, it’s impossible to answer—no one should be mad about using ramps but parking tags need enforcement

anyway since Trump is ineligible to be president, all his pardons are null and void imo

Conservatives chose Trump to be their party leader a decade ago and have continued to support him. He is carrying out the policies they want, which are based on their deeply-held values. Why would we expect them to speak out against him?

just operation gatekeeper, v-chip, dems trying to find an outspoken minority to yell at to provide their conservative bonafides, hiring 100k cops, on an infinite loop, for 30 years and growing

Jacky Rosen (NV), Adam Schiff (CA), Jeanne Shaheen (NH), Elissa Slotkin (MI), Raphael Warnock (GA), and Peter Welch (VT). [and sorry for the typo, was 19 Dem Senators, not 18.]

Senators voting yea include: Tammy Baldwin (WI), Michael Bennett (CO), Cory Booker (NJ), Catherine Cortez Masto (NV), Dick Durbin (IL), John Fetterman (PA), Ruben Gallego (AZ), Maggie Hassan (NH), Martin Heinrich (NM), John Hickenlooper (CO), Amy Klobuchar (MN), Jon Ossoff (GA), Gary Peters (MI)...

Sending you love and strength and hope.

It really is bleak, esp in the Senate. There are maybe 2 Dem Senators (Markley and Merkley) who at least have a voting record that shows they understand the times we're in. But for the rest...it's hard not to just get intensely pessimistic. Also, this country desperately needs multiple 3rd parties.

Roll call is uploaded! The Dems who voted yea for Orso are: Dick Durbin (IL), Ruben Gallego (AZ), Tim Kaine (VA), Jeanne Shaheen (NH), and Sheldon Whitehouse (RI).

Chris Coons (DE) did not vote.

This is Durbin's 21st yea vote, Gallego's 27th, Kaine's 32nd, Shaheen's 47th, & Whitehouse's 14th.
