This is not a thorny issue. This is not fraught. It is extrajudicial killing. It is the killing of civilians under any standard of law. He killed them on the basis of his-say so that they are drug smugglers, mere criminals. It was premeditated. And he's saying he's going to do it again and again.
I know people are overwhelmed by too much news from every angle, and maybe people are distracted by the "terrorist" language, or just plain exhausted.

But this is the President of the United States saying he is going to go around killing people because he thinks they're criminals. And already did.
Trump: "When I see boats coming in like loaded up the other day with all sorts of drugs -- probably fentanyl mostly -- we're gonna take them out. And if people wants to have fun on the high seas of the low seas they're gonna be in trouble."

About the worst (weirdest?) part was the random pairs of guys in military gear doing absolutely nothing. Along with the seemingly empty humvee right out front in a walking area maybe 100 feet from the "F*ck Trump" tents. There were still tour buses and the humvee is what was scaring people not DC.

Love Not Just Bikes for their in depth look into transportation and development. One of the largest voices speaking about how to actually make public transportation as good as it can be in its varied forms.

Should know 2 things in transportation. 1 - you aren't going to ban cars anywhere in America probably ever. 2 - banning cars isn't the proper way to go about it or talk about goals related go transportation because of how easily that is misinterpreted.

I think someone who boils their take on transportation to 'ban cars' have only a passing interest in. I know very few people who would say this because anyone actually talking about decreasing car traffic doesnt go around just suggesting a ban on cars because thats silly. Anyone interested...

What does he say? "I deal in everything. Guns so they can shoot each and medicine to make them all better for round 2"

Or, they are angry I got in the way of their "innocent" fun. I find that men are very often angry with me in these circumstances. 😬 Hence, my Medieval Cause of Death is Womannely Mouthyneff. 🤣

So nowadays, the racists, sexists, homophobes, transphobes, etc, they dont have to defend their words or actions cause they're just joking around and you're the bad guy for bringing it up. So they get to claim they don't even believe it but can spew it all day long.

So around other men, you tend to accept that "boys will be boys" mentality so broadly that suddenly your friends are ACTUALLY using slurs or whatever. You don't know what to do either cause they're your friends but you know they're wrong. If you bring it up you'll be killing the vibe and ostracized

Many states have kept taxes low or lower them further by relying on these fed funds for things they may normally have to fund themselves. No state should be in favor of these cuts.

Love it. Proper usage of these internal levers to get rid of incapable or corrupt leadership. It SHOULD be an example for Congress to look at and consider what tools they have... too bad
