Human trafficking paid for with IS tax dollars. Look up the facility in Eswatini. 😖 Some attorneys need to take up this case pro bono. No way this could be legal.

Inspirational. A caution though - this goes way deeper than Trump. Yes we remove a tyrant but as long as the majority of Congress and the courts abdicate their duties democracy will not function.

What about Zelenskyys speech, tho? Didn’t he say the have to choose between loss of dignity and loss of a critical partner? He’s under the impression it’s also a US plan. Hopefully this fumble gives Z some breathing room.

But Z gave a speech that they have to sacrifice dignity or lose a partner (critical to advantage in the war). So I think this was out to Z as a Russia/US plan all along, whether Rubio was in on it or not.

Now as of Nov 20 the gov site lists it as “became law.” That’s better but still not proof.

Let’s see proof or I’m sensing a secret pocket veto plan. 😣

The gov site still isn’t updated as of Wed evening, either.

While I can appreciate the sentiment of Lincoln’s words I wish his actions were consistent in supporting them. Sadly this politician benefits from the hero narrative yet he would have maintained slavery if it had kept the Union together. 🤯🫣😥 This is what happens when we bury the uncomfy history.
