I wonder how many overdoses and deaths Juan Orlando Hernández’s 400 tons of cocaine were directly responsible for in the US.

Japan refused to recognize marriage equality.
Bigotry is alive and well in many parts of the world. It’s increasingly thriving in the United States. After all, if the president can be an open bigot, so can ordinary Americans.

Nearly a dozen warships and 12,000 troops are deployed in Caribbean at this very moment.
But Trump's judicial nominees can't even bring themselves to acknowledge Congress’ role in declaring or authorizing war, or refusing to do so.

I think its important to point out that Graham, a dog that was pretty clearly leashed by Trump, breaking from him (amid the aftermath of a terrorist attack) is probably a big deal for where Trump stands and where the real GOP is going as they barrel towards a potential mid-term loss.
Lindsey Graham sponsored the Afghan Adjustment Act: “This is the right thing to do. The people who were there with us in the fight who are here in America need to stay. This will be their new home. We have a moral obligation to these people and they will make great citizens.”

Since Stephen Miller is in the midst of another of his Aryans-only trantrums, we should note that his family are 20th century immigrants from the shtetl of Antopol (Антопаль) then in the Hrodna gubernia of Russia. Applying his immigration rules, they would all have perished in the Holocaust.
Stephen Miller Is an Immigration Hypocrite. I Know Because I’m His Uncle.
If my nephew’s ideas on immigration had been in force a century ago, our family would have been wiped out.

The United States did not start the war in Ukraine. We owe Putin nothing. Giving him concessions now, like recognizing territories he annexed, would make the US look so weak.

This is the result of the CIA using children to kill people and yet a whole lot of people don’t want to recognize *American* culture, and in particular the culture of the War on Terror, at work here.

The president is such a bumbling idiot he thinks tweeting out the word "hereby" a couple times on his white supremacist social media site is the same thing as making an actual law.
The only story here is the one about a mentally diminished, increasingly erratic president who thinks he's a king.

It should go without saying, but the president has no authority to do this, and anyone reporting the story needs to say as such.

It’s not a bias. It’s a transaction. Tens of millions of Ukrainian lives and the remnants of American respectability in exchange for an increase in the private fortunes of a few people.
President Vladimir Putin of Russia on Thursday defended President Trump’s special envoy against accusations of pro-Kremlin bias.

The Russian leader called the U.S. special envoy “an intelligent man” who is properly representing his country in peace negotiations.

The blame game is dreadful. If we're dead-set on politicizing this tragic killing, then blame every president from Bush 43 to Trump 45/47. Each played their role in the 20-year war that never could have been won. War is horrible. War is known to leave men and women broken as they return to society.
Exactly what I've come to expect from WAPO and from the comments, it appears that many agree. FFS stop blaming Biden. This guy was allowed in under Trump and granted asylum by Trump.
