Unlike most memoirists, I am not even remotely a known entity; certainly, no Lee Carlson (“Passage to Nirvana”). I am not a sports…

I wrote this memoir hoping that my story might comfort other neurodivergents who struggle to fit into a world that was not particularly welcoming to the slightly off or differently created.

As a veteran who served in intelligence, I want to introduce you to EXORDS: the execute order from the President to SecDef. This allows 60 days operations under the War Powers Act. The President must advise Congress and gain approval to continue.
No EXORD was sent to Congress. This is illegal

Last week, ICE arrested and separated a father and son after a routine check-in. Six-year-old Yuanxin had just enrolled in the first grade at an elementary school in Astoria. Now he's in custody, alone. ICE won't say where. This cruelty serves no one. It must end.

The American people deserve to know whether a war crime was committed in their name.
While more facts will come to light, it's long been clear that Pete Hegseth is unworthy of the public's trust. He is an embarrassment to our troops and a threat to our security.
He needs to go.

It's great that reporting on the double tap has spotlighted the abject criminality of this Administration.
But don't forget: Venezuela is not waging war on America or Americans, and the men killed were not combatants.
The first strike was every bit as illegal as the second.

These Karoline Leavitt "press conferences" are completely worthless propaganda full of shameless lies. They should be ignored by the media and all of us.
Q: You said that second strike was in accordance with the law of armed conflict, but the Navy's own manual says that firing on survivors from a wrecked vessel is an example of a war crime
LEAVITT: I would reiterate that the strike was conducted in accordance with the law of armed conflict
