The more I read about Operation Gideon, the more I'm convinced this war will be a disaster beyond imagination if Trump fully commits.

The last time these right wingers took control of any part of Venezuela they funneled $30 billion out of the Treasury and immiserated the country.

This argument probably sounded good before we had a year of students and faculty getting assaulted in liberal cities under a liberal president.

To be explicit, we executed a German U-Boat commander who said he had to sink lifesaving gear / “inadvertently” kill survivors because it might give away his position, thereby potentially resulting in the loss of his submarine.

We executed multiple members of that crew.
Heinz-Wilhelm Eck might have something to say about this one.

Tech guys love moving to Lewis County because it's one of the last places in western WA you can get land relatively cheap.

So glad the government is reopened.
Per CNN: President Trump says US land action against alleged drug trafficking networks in Venezuela will start "very soon".

I don't think any bad turkey photo can match Schumer putting cheese on raw hamburger. Sorry to "both sides" this issue.

Very few commanders are gonna follow day to day court news about the legality of these invasions.
Governors and potential presidential candidates should be promising pardons for any NG troops who walk away.
Instead we have opposition senators showing off their GWOT medals to fund raise.
NEW: The two shot National Guard troops never should have been in DC. More troops is no answer.

The violence is horrible and unacceptable. Trump, Pete Hegseth, and West Virginia Gov. Patrick Morrisey never should have put the troops in this position.

Tonight, at Law Dork:

Get a job, you bum.
We all believe in improving efficiency, and a team genuinely focused on that could do a world of good.

But the DOGE we could have had is a far cry from the DOGE we actually got.

The story's main findings is that Thiel was connected to Israeli government officials through Jeffrey Epstein in 2014, and dined with some of them.

Interestingly, two years later, Thiel would be dining with white nationalists, as we reported at BuzzFeed News: archive.is/xFJhQ
