SCOTUS judgment protects #Trump. The soldiers should be worried for themselves. “Just following orders” won’t cut it.
Military service personnel have been seeking outside legal advice about some of the missions the Trump administration has assigned them. The strikes against alleged drug traffickers and deployments to U.S. cities have sparked a debate over their legality.

This is so infuriating. I hope things stay fine for Judge Cody and he never has to deal with the repercussions of a road collision. Because he has no empathy. Are there any implication for him breaching a High Court ruling? #RoadSafety #SpeirGorm www.irishtimes.com/crime-law/co...

HANNITY: I keep hearing from Democrats, 'Nazi, fascist, racist, Hitler, Stalin, Mussolini.' Is that incitement? Do you believe that impacts unstable people

You right dear Brent!
The next mayoral election in Paris will be a choice between returning to the past, a city for cars, lies and empty gestures, Dati/Trump-style populism, or continuing to move forward into the 21st century for a happy proximity city, human centric, liveable and more peaceful.

I believe the 2 most important city mayoral elections in the world will be tomorrow’s New York City Election (the most important turning point #VOTE in New York history? #VOTEMamdani) & next year’s Paris Election for the successor of this generation’s most important/influential mayor, Anne Hidalgo.

O'DONNELL: Why did you pardon Changpeng Zhao?

O'DONNELL: His crypto exchange Binance helped facilitate a $2b purchase of World Liberty Financial's stablecoin. And they you pardoned him.

Usually the reaction to seeing creeps like Matt Goodwin on tv debates is to wonder why they platform hateful people like him. But then you see him taken apart and exposed on #bbcqt and you think maybe these views need the disinfectant of exposure to light.
