This is how we got trump. Grrr!
There are over 700,000 people in Tennessee's heavily Blue Davidson County. Today, only about 42,000 voters turned out to vote. If just a few more people had shown up and voted blue, the margin could have flipped in Behn's favor. Voting is important. Don't let anyone convince you otherwise.

Also, a lesson to every DOJ lawyer & law enforcement official. A lesson to everyone.
Hegseth is very transparently blaming a Navy admiral for his own decision. Let this be a lesson for every other military officer: The Trump administration will issue unlawful orders, then blame you for following them.

"If the U.S. military operation is not an armed conflict of any kind, these orders to kill helpless civilians clinging to the wreckage of a vessel our military destroyed would subject everyone from SECDEF down to the individual who pulled the trigger to prosecution under U.S. law for murder."
Here are US military lawyers stating clearly that Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth's "kill everybody" orders are either (1) war crimes or (2) murder.

Either way, expect prosecutions in the future.

Disgusting
Of course, no one seems willing to hold him accountable. A judge in Georgia has now dismissed the last remaining criminal case against Trump, effectively ending any effort to hold him criminally responsible for trying to overturn the 2020 election.
