“Ah, just one more thing, sir. You’re blowing up those boats, saying they’re filled with drugs headed for the US. But then you go and pardon the guy who brought in 400 tons of cocaine. That’s billions of doses. Help me understand that.”

6 people held on terrorism charges in Britain for protesting against UK arms shipments to the IDF are currently on hunger strike – not that you'd know that from UK media. People who haven't been convicted of anything are being held in solitary confinement, letters from friends and relatives withheld
'There is a temptation to see all of this as heavy-handed policing or bureaucratic overreach. But that understates the cohesion of what is happening. This is not an accident; this is architecture.'
