Juan Orlando Hernández, a former president of Honduras, helped orchestrate a decades-long scheme that prosecutors said brought more than 500 tons of cocaine into the U.S. He was convicted in a sweeping case last year, but President Trump said on Friday that he would pardon Hernandez. nyti.ms/3KyKxHx

I don't know where this 2023 complaint led, but Phillips and Engelbrecht made numerous demonstrably-false claims in 2000 Mules (I have receipts) so if there were irregularities in the "nonprofit" finances as well, it would not surprise me.

Mark Kelly: "When I heard the secretary say that they're gonna pause immigration from third world countries, I take that as a message that they don't want brown people coming to the US. And I find that disturbing."

There’s been a lot of problems recently getting people to read the UCMJ. The people that survived the attack and were no longer a threat now have protected status. If possible, they should have been picked up and given POW status. This is a Geneva Convention law. The U.S. is a signatory.

CORRECT. And interdicting the boat, capturing the low-level workers and getting information from them could provide a path to getting the ACTUAL drug dealers.

But that wouldn't make Pete Hegseth feel all manly.

I’m sure the drug dealers were safe ashore. They capture and threaten to kill poor people’s family members if they don’t drug run. So, chances are these were innocent victims given no option.

My dad and I were fascinated by a car next to us at the tip which had gull wing doors. We were watching as the driver opened the doors and then knocked their head on the edge, and then as it drove off it turned out to be a Tesla Model X. We are currently in hysterics

Real question

How long are we going to allow the US “government” + billionaires to abuse us citizens? What will it take for us to mobilize against them and actively revolt?

I feel like civil disobedience, voting, not spending our money, etc as forms of resistance isn’t…enough. But that’s just me

Walmart and McDonald’s are among the top employers of workers who rely on food stamps.

McDonald's CEO raked in $18.2M last year — over 1,000x the company's median employee pay.

Walmart's CEO pocketed $27.4M — 930x the company's median employee pay.

See the problem?
