Reporter: You said that that second strike was in full accordance with the law of armed conflict but the Navy's own manual of law of war says that specifically firing on survivors from a wrecked vessel is an example of a war crime that's forbidden under U.S. Law and the law of armed conflict…

Clifford “Buzz” Grambo patrols the streets of Baltimore to keep his neighbors safe. His goal is straightforward: To make ICE agents uncomfortable.

“I want their morale as low as possible,” he said, “because a team with low morale is ineffective.”

Kelly: He runs around on stage talking about lethality and the warrior ethos.. That’s not the message that should be coming from the Secretary of Defense… He runs around on a stage like he’s a 12 year old playing army. It’s embarrassing.

As others have pointed out, the founders never foresaw a corrupt president (which we have) abusing the pardon power to absolve all criminals and miscreants for any reason, nor did our Daffy Duck Supreme Court ever think it might not be a good idea to put said president above the law.

EPA just okayed PFAS “forever chemicals” on produce. Protect yourself by choosing organic, avoiding sludge-fertilized farms, buying local, and asking grocers to reject PFAS. Shifting spending to PFAS-free farms pressures the industry to stop.

That’s rich coming from the architect. McConnell is just as responsible as Trump. He thought he could still control Trump and the senators, but he got older and Trump got bolder.

"Leo" shared this pic from Lamont CA. A worker is discing the field using a tractor. This breaks up the soil, buries leftover plant material & prepares the ground for the next crop. This task requires precision to maintain even depth and coverage across large fields. #WeFeedYou

Once “respected” professionals of all sorts have grabbed that golden ring of fleeting fame that has ruined many careers. The thing is, the line never ends. There’s always many more willing to step into the shit pile once the one before them goes down in flames. It’s a curious thing.
