Our government is saying that their strikes in the Caribbean are against designated “Narco-terrorist” groups - such as Tren de Aragua. The DOS have named 8 such groups. So Q: What terrorist attacks have any of these groups made against the United States? Can anyone name even one attack??

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."

@nicolewallacebr.bsky.social Those on your show today talking about “war crimes” are buying into this absurd rationale that we can use the military against crime - if indeed there’s any crime here at all. Not against enemy combatants, but against civilian criminals. It’s murder, plain & simple!

The worst part about the boat strikes - regardless of who ordered what and besides the ultimate tragedy of lives lost - is they’re forever a stain on the professionalism and dignity of the United States military.
They’re an insult to every American who ever sacrificed to do the right thing.

I’m watching all this with disgust and profound sadness. We have gone from ally and leader, to unreliable and now to criminal. My Lai and Abu Ghraib were gross aberrations - and those responsible, were punished. Now, this behavior is policy. Trump and Hegseth have made our military, murders.

Don’t forget LBJ and the war on poverty. If the Dems could just divorce themselves from wall street and dirty money, grow a spine and a set of cajones, and walk the walk, that’d be super.

96% of the highest-paid workers in the US have paid sick days.
Just 38% of the lowest-paid workers get them — including the thousands of retail workers working this holiday weekend.
Only in America do we call working people ‘essential’ but deny them paid sick leave.

We’re the only country that lets the gun lobby write the laws and then pretends to be shocked when children end up in coffins.
NEW UPDATE:
The San Joaquin County Sheriff’s Office has announced that four of the victims shot in the Stockton mass shooting were ages 8, 9, 14, and 21.

If the Venezuelan sailors were enemy combatants, then the 2nd strike is a war crime.
If the Venezuelan sailors weren’t enemy combatants, then both strikes are criminal murder.
It’s that simple.

The focus on the Epstein files (certainly warranted) has overshadowed that the shutdown ended in yet another Continuing Resolution (CR) that only runs until 30 Jan 2026. Only the Dept. of Agriculture, Military Construction, Veterans Affairs and the Congress itself -re fully funded for the FY.

This is Adelita Grijalva.
She was elected to Congress two weeks ago, officially making her the final vote needed to force the release of the Epstein files.
She has still not been sworn in because Mike Johnson refuses to do so.

Made weak by time and fate, but strong in will. To strive, to seek, to find, and not to yield.”
