Senator Kelly is correct.
Plus a Public Service Announcement:
KEY section of Department of Defense's Law of War Manual is 18.3.2.1.
The VERY rule on the "requirement" to refuse illegal orders gives as its paradigmatic example of what is "clearly illegal:
"orders to fire upon the shipwrecked."

So.... instead of discounts on present-type items, price hikes for the holidays?
I mean.... hasn't that been kinda the whole year?

Personally I these white men just need to assimilate to the real Indigenous values of America, responsible stewardship of land & use of resources, cooperative community governance, hospitality, honor of spirit, instead of refusing to relinquish their barbaric European culture, we'd be better off.
Trump is doing 95% of the shit the Declaration of Independence was written about so Miller was kind of spot on about importing the horrors of… England.

Kinda seems like the perfect event to allow Trump to claim his Afghan purge/ eventual Muslim ban is justified, and also for the Taliban to get its hands on escaped Afghans who aided the US, and if we had remotely functional intelligence agencies, they'd probably be looking for dots to connect.

That Iowa isn't doing better is atrocious: nearly 60% of our power comes from wind, and I will tell you, it is super cheap electricity. My last month's bill was $31; $21 of that was gas for heating and water.
Why are Iowans struggling?
Because Iowa's economy, under the GOP, is struggling.

TRUMP DID THIS 👇
Surging power prices = increased overdue electric bills & a growing number of households pending electrical shutoff
🔴 states overall appear higher
TX again proving everything is BIGGER, not better in the Lone ⭐️ State
The new Google AI Data Center will only decrease affordability

Seeing videos of ICE illegally trespassing, without warrant or ID, on homeowners' private property, it amazes me that none of these stupid pawns has considered that Trump WANTS them to get shot by someone under Stand Your Ground policy, so he can escalate to using the military to kill Americans.

Not having children or student loans, and having the ACA so I can get decent insurance without depending on corporate employment, has also been key to my independence.
When the GOP pushes forced birth, slashes support for ed, and kills the ACA? It's because they do not want people to have choices.

I don't have children or student loans, and I bought a house with money left to me when my mother died, and I never leave those three things out of the "how did you transition into freelancing full time" conversation because otherwise it is WILDLY disingenuous to talk about how writing pays my bills
And the folks who are actually writing full-time generally only got there after years of day jobs, family support, or both.
The point of sharing this is not to demoralize anyone, but to let emerging writers know they're not failing if they can't make a living off writing alone. Almost no one can.

My dog urgently comes to tell me if I've forgotten food in the microwave, and would definitely know on sight that Trump is a Very Bad Man, which I feel makes her more qualified to vote than any "AI" and also anyone who continues to defend the anti-constitutional murdering pedo felon and his goons.
