Van Hollen: "It's either murder from the first strike if their whole theory is wrong, and I think the weight of the legal opinion is they've concocted this ridiculous legal theory. But even if you accept it, then it is a war crime. I do believe the secretary of defense should be held accountable"

Can't honesty say that most don't agree with what teens see, and decided to turn away. This is especially true with cable TV news millionaire wannabe celebs like #MorningJoe Scarborough, the face of Comcast News-MS NOW, donors to Trump's Triumphal Arch and ballroom.

Underrated factor in the Trump-Witkoff-Kushner embarrassing Ukraine “peace” plan flop is the flood of praise they got for a Gaza plan that was also mostly “just tell everyone it’s over then think of how much money we’ll make.”

On the horrific news that Pete Hegseth ordered the killing of boat bombing survivors, remember: The Trump Murder Memo "authorizing" the strikes preemptively clears those carrying them out. That's unusual. And we still haven't heard from the commander who resigned:

Looks like we're launching a war that none of us (including congress) voted for.
Candidate Trump promised no new wars but warned that Harris was so weak she'd get us into many.
Less than a year and he's going to war FOR OIL.

As you watch The Game at The Big House in Ann Arbor today, remember that all the Trump voters needed to have flipped the election to @kamalaharris.com if they’d voted for her would fit inside that stadium. That’s how close she made the election in the most difficult of circumstances.
