Trump pardoned Former Honduras President Juan Orlando Hernández, for trafficking 500 tons of cocaine to USA

The Honduran AG just issued an international warrant for his arrest, saying, "America's not sending its best people, they're drug dealers, they're rapists, & some, I assume, are good people."

They're using the confinement box, one of the most horrific methods of CIA torture in the post-9/11 black sites, against migrants now. This is the direct result of the lack of consequences for the architects of the torture program. Either there will be criminal penalties for this or it will expand.
Torture Techniques from CIA Black Sites Were Used at Alligator Alcatraz
Amnesty International, interviewing migrant detainees, identifies use of the confinement box. There can be no denying it is a torture prison

59 House Democrats joined Republicans in voting to codify Trump's suggestion box for billionaires to complain about public interest regulations that prevent them from defrauding you.

Authorities/Dems need to question & clarify the SCOTUS decision re a President being immune from prosecution. There is overwhelming evidence to support that many of the crimes Trump has committed while in office are NOT part of his job as POTUS. Stop letting this being a barrier to accountability.

This is no surprise to anyone who's paying attention. Businesses with fewer than 50 employees are getting hit hardest, first.

November private payrolls unexpectedly fell by 32,000, led by steep small business job cuts, ADP reports
The payrolls decline marked a sharp step down from October, which saw an upwardly revised gain of 47,000 positions.

Woah. Newsmax’s legal analyst just said Pete Hegseth and everyone involved in the illegal boat strike should be “prosecuted for a war crime.”

They’ve even lost Newsmax on this one.

Regarding Venezuela, Ukraine and much more, Trump and his acolytes are worse than simply incompetent.

I am once again asking United States Senators to take a trial ad class to learn cross examination and witness control techniques plz
One thing to note about Bove’s response re: whistleblower report is that he didn’t explicitly deny making the “fuck you” comment.

Would be interesting to see his response if a senator directly asks him if he denies saying that

Trump not Biden Agreed to a May Ist exit from Afghanistan, and had no exit strategy.

Trump not Biden Refused to brief Biden's incoming team.

Trump not Biden Shut down every airbase in Afghanistan except one, crippling the US's ability to extract its assets safely.

As Pete Hegseth denies the cold-blooded murder of survivors on the U.S. boat attack in the Caribbean (aka war crimes), remember that this is the same guy who initially lied and said he didn't share United States attack plans with a journalist in a Signal group chat.

Trump calls for the death of half of elected officials in Washington and it’s not even covered on the news. This will courage Trump to do it even more. Our press has failed.
Jeez. Trump reposted a call to execute six Democratic members of Congress, and it’s not on the front page of the NY Times, and this is the headline—no mention of hanging lawmakers.
