Genuine question: why is the left wing of the Democratic Party more eager to forgive someone who worked for Blackwater when he needed a paycheck than someone who did the same thing at, say, McKinsey?

The president is establishing the principle that he can order the murder of anyone he deems a threat.
And Congress is letting it happen.

What we have here, in addition to Trump's gaudy, vacuous bric-a-brac he has glued to wall in the Cabinet Room, is our monumentally incompetent SecDef telling the most unhinged president in history about an attack on another civilian small boat, this time in the Pacific.

My grandfather (UK) served in WW2 in France and Palestine and secured lots of mementos from fallen German soldiers so I've known what a totenkopf was since I was like 6? But also one of my high school classes assigned a John Keegan WW2 book so i think everyone i knew was aware of it after that

Oh, you want to make a political party that only takes positions on issues that enjoy majority support in polling? Should we throw a celebration? Should we call Andrew Yang?
