ICE is using Uber stickers in order to disguise themselves and kidnap people. Spread this for awareness!

If we don't fight right and protect innocent life, it doesn't matter if what we are fighting for is right. We are the bad guys.
Hegseth included the below in a chapter titled “The Laws of War, For Winners”

It’s almost as if there were signs!

In case you’re wondering why Pete Hegseth is freaking out about a congressional video reminding the military not to participate in illegal orders:
To put a finer point on this whole thing: "Two people with direct knowledge of the operation" — presumably uniformed military leaders — are accusing the U.S. Secretary of Defense of personally ordering specific war crimes. That's a historic accusation.
Textbook war crime/extrajudicial killing

"Two survivors were clinging to the smoldering wreck. The Special Operations commander overseeing the Sept. 2 attack ... ordered a second strike to comply with Hegseth’s instructions."

Trump, Bill Mahar, Ted Cruz -- I kept hearing right wing MAGAs claim genocide of Nigerian Christians.

So I investigated, and here's what I found: There's no alleged genocide—but there's definitely an oil & profit interest in claiming their is. Here are the facts:

First, violence of any kind is unacceptable and must be condemned without hesitation.

I’d rather be posting about fitness. But I have a moral responsibility to speak out against hate.

For months, I’ve heard terms from the current administration and its allies

To be clear, the FBI paid nearly $1M in overtime over a FIVE DAY PERIOD last March. And yes, part of it was to find and redact Trump's name. I spoke to sources who reviewed the files for the FBI and DOJ and wrote about it here: www.muellershewrote.com/p/the-epstei...

in a reasonable world the Trump admin would be catching enormous amounts of shit for their decision to deploy the national guard now that this has happened, rather than the media helping manufacture consent for them ending all refugee programs

I am not holding my breath
The Trump DOJ played down the risk of deploying the National Guard to DC, despite warnings, and now one of them is dead. www.theatlantic.com/ideas/2025/1...

Islamophobia is skyrocketing. I'm *finally* seeing some US news outlets mention it. Yet, even now, zero Muslim American voices on their panels.

I'm an American Muslim, a well published human rights lawyer of 15+ years w/2.1M followers & my substack gets 2M+ reads per month.

A central issue at trial for the My Lai massacre in Vietnam was whether an Army lieutenant, or the Army captain who was his superior, was responsible for the order to leave no survivors.

Neither suggested the SecDef would have given such a command.
