Gutfeld, who believes he is funny, puts his ignorance on full display whenever he speaks. He and Watters think they are top notch shock jockeys.

Excellent thread.
The USG has a new explanation on why they (now admittedly) intentionally killed 2 shipwrecked men. It does not pass the laws-of-war smell test
Worse for Hegseth, NYT: "Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth approved contingency plans for what to do if an initial strike left survivors."

Hey #ParkChat folks...just a reminder that I am hosting tonight at 9 pm EST! We'll be discussing the big America 250th coming up in 2026.
This is my first time hosting since being inducted into the #ParkChat Hall of Fame! I assume there will be some kind of trophy or similar major award at the end.

Most Dems & most of the media are missing this:
The "second strike" argument obscures the obvious truth that these were crimes before the second strike.
The second strike did not magically elevate some harmless act to the level of criminality. They were always murder, killings without due process.
