Van Hollen: "It's either murder from the first strike if their whole theory is wrong, and I think the weight of the legal opinion is they've concocted this ridiculous legal theory. But even if you accept it, then it is a war crime. I do believe the secretary of defense should be held accountable"

Important conversation. But the conclusion understates the case. It is not that handing Russia the huge territory that contains Ukraine’s best defenses would “not necessarily” bring peace. It is that so doing would guarantee a bloodier and longer war.

Trump allowed 17 members of the Sinaloa cartel into the US.

In May he commuted the 6x life sentences of the leader of the Gangster Disciples, most notorious drug trafficking & murderous street gang in the US.

Now Honduran drug trafficker Hernandez.

Is Trump setting up his own drug corridor?

Trump has thrown all of our norms in the garbage.
It’s wild how the press is ok with the president abusing the pardon power. That used to be one of the most scrutinized things about a presidency.

Thank you. I watched that version. I may sound crazy, but I wanted to attend the live meeting.

It’s similar to watching a music video as opposed to attending the concert in person.

Q: But who in their right mind would ever want to go to a concert?

A: Everyone I know.

Klobuchar: "What the president has done is taken a horrific crime that occurred in DC and went 2,400 miles away to Somali & somehow indicted an entire group of people, 80k of them in my state, as well as all naturalized citizens. This is what he does. He tries to make people hate each other."

Trump will certainly reward a fellow autocrat and friend of his-no the US!
Congress must insist on "no USA trade with Russia for at least five (5) years, with no lifting of sanctions during this time, either."

Vladimir Putin and his Anti-Democracy aggression needs DEFEAT, not reward.

In the wake of the Epstein fight, Rep. Adelita Grijalva has become a voice for sexual assault survivors.

"Advocacy for people that feel like they don't have a voice has always been something that I'm very comfortable with. I think that it is our responsibility."

Telling people “prices are going down” while they’re in the checkout line is like telling someone on a treadmill they’re sitting on a couch. Their legs know you’re lying.
