This interview with Lindsey Graham is ridiculous.
No politician should be allowed to grandstand in support of Trump bombing boats or going to war with Venezuela without being challenged on why he pardoned a major drug kingpin, former Honduran President Juan Orlando Hernández.

Quick explainer for why this is a big deal, a thread.

When a major media outlet openly capitulates to the political agenda of the executive branch, they are no longer part of the fourth estate.

He isn’t right often, but Rand Paul is right about Venezuela policy.
Rand Paul: "All these designations are steps towards war -- calling drug runners terrorists, saying, 'Oh, if they have a designation'-- Well, how'd they get it? We gave it to them. Why is the former president of Honduras released? So some narcoterrorists are okay & others we're going to blow up"
