international journalists asking the french police why they are having a two hour lunch while the thieves are out there and the police explaining the thieves are likely also french so will also be having a two hour lunch
A long time ago, I saw the line "if you're the smartest person in the room, you're in the wrong room" and that is 100% truth.

Right, so that’s murder. The president has murdered a couple dozen people at least. And yet in the same interview Paul says he’s the murderer’s biggest supporter and would defend him against impeachment again. So that’s where the GOP is now. Murder not grounds for impeachment.
Rand Paul: "When you kill someone, if you're not in a declared war, you really need to know someone's name at least. You have to accuse them of something. You have to present evidence. So all of these people have been blown up without any evidence of a crime."
The point is to demonstrate to normies that MAGA is a fringe position.
Yeah, "a dead girl or a live boy" was always the standard.
If there was any chance they were drug dealers, they wouldn't have been released back home.

The only explanation for this is that these people would disprove the administration’s narrative about the identity of the people we are murdering. I’m a little surprised they didn’t just straight-up murder these two in custody. That’s who the government is now.
Breaking News: The Trump administration has decided to repatriate two survivors of a deadly U.S. strike this week on suspected drug runners in the Caribbean Sea rather than prosecute them or hold them in military detention, people with knowledge of the matter said on Saturday.
U.S. to Repatriate Survivors of Its Strike on Suspected Drug Vessel
The U.S. military rescued the two men in the Caribbean Sea after Special Operations forces fired on a semi-submersible that was assessed to be smuggling drugs.

Law & Order and its various spinoffs have done more to erode the Fourth, Fifth, Sixth, and Eighth Amendments than the Supreme Court
Do you have any extremely niche, but serious, ethical stances?
Donald Trump's one sincerely held policy opinion is that there should be no penalties for fraud and corruption.
BREAKING: Trump commutes sentence of disgraced former congressman George Santos.

“I just signed a Commutation, releasing George Santos from prison, IMMEDIATELY. Good luck George, have a great life!”

Yeah, I remember whenever England played abroad, the host city would have to like double police presence to deal with the England fans.

English football hooliganism was such a big deal in the 80s that English club fans were on the official list of people who require extra scrutiny during immigration at most European airports
Jenrick casting 1980s British football hooliganism as something that was easily dealt with by police and not an era defining issue which we're still living with the consequences of today... He's genuinely the most unserious person in British politics rn
