Killing survivors in the water is a war crime for which people have been executed. (Note: we're not at war with any of these nations, and the legal underpinnings are dubious at best.)
There's the case of U-852 in WWII.

Yes, yes he is. At least he stopped wearing a combat infantry badge that he never earned. I serve served with his brother in Wisconsin and thought he was a pretty decent guy. Now I wonder.

Amid the fog of war, clarity is often hard to find. But, if this story is true, there is nothing unclear or ambiguous about it.
This was either a war crime (if we believe that the killings are covered by the laws of war) or it was simply cold-blooded murder.

Friends (married couple only) told me last month their premium is rising by $3000 per month. Let that sink in. I was notified Medicare premiums are going up 9.7%. How does it happen that we get only a 2.8% COLA?

New research shows trans kids on hormone treatment have less suicide ideation
A new report has shown that transgender youth who are on hormone treatment have a reduced level of suicide ideation.
The research builds upon earlier work, but this time examined a much larger cohort.

It's only going to get worse for trans people as the FBI under Bailey will make prosecuting trans people and parents of trans youth a higher priority. They'll start by trying to effectively ban access to HRT throughout the US.
Andrew Bailey, in line to replace Patel, is a white nationalist firebrand whose name you might recognize as in '23 as Missouri AG, he tried to unilaterally ban trans health care for adults & children, sought kids' private medical records, and tried to get local police to physically enforce his law.
MS NOW EXCLUSIVE: “President Trump is considering removing Kash Patel as FBI director in the coming months, as he and his top aides have grown increasingly frustrated by the unflattering headlines Patel has recently generated.”

Shouldn't doing what Pam Bondi is accusing James Comey of doing be a scandal that would make her have to resign? In her case it's is easily proven that she lied to the committee.

Hey, WI @speakervos and @repdittrich you both said don’t worry about trans kids killing themselves bc that doesn’t happen.
A trans teen in Iowa completed suicide after severe bullying by classmates and teachers.
"Miles’ death came a day after a substitute teacher refused to use his preferred pronouns."
It's the type of bullying @thefireorg.bsky.social and @aricohn.com support.
