How low we have sunk as a country. The US Department of Defense is now run by a rabid war criminal.

Ordering the execution of helpless survivors of an attack is ALWAYS a war crime, whether they civilian or military.

Pure, mindless, barbarism.

I maintain that if Democrats could learn to talk with one-half of the plain spoken moral sense of Republicans who have turned on Trump, like this Indiana Republican who refuses to redistrict on the president’s command, they’d win 400 electoral votes dailyjournal.net/2025/11/26/s...

He keeps calling it a ballroom but a ballroom is a place for dancing. What he wants is a gilded Holiday Inn banquet room where businessmen can shmooze, grope the waitresses, see and be seen, and cut crooked deals.
“.. What started as a 500-seat ballroom connected to the East Wing grew to 650 seats. Next, he wanted a 999-seat ballroom, then room for 1,350.” 🤡

I think Trump really believes the presidency imbues him with a super power to deem the innocent as guilty and the guilty as "treated very unfairly."

Remember a few weeks ago when dude was all butthurt that he didn’t get the Nobel Peace Prize.
More saber rattling.

There are good reasons that the U.S. Constitution does not leave the decision on whether to go to war to the whims of one man.

Trump, with no authority to do so, demands the airspace “above and surrounding” Venezuela be closed as he threatens to bomb and invade the country.

trump will pardon or assist any head of state who has been convicted for crimes. acting out of self preservation, basically
WHOA. Trump says he will pardon Juan Orlando Hernandez, who once said that he wanted to “shove the drugs right up the noses of the gringos.” He had people killed as part of his narco-trafficking ring, which he at times operated directly out of his presidential office.

To put a finer point on this whole thing: "Two people with direct knowledge of the operation" — presumably uniformed military leaders — are accusing the U.S. Secretary of Defense of personally ordering specific war crimes. That's a historic accusation.
Textbook war crime/extrajudicial killing

"Two survivors were clinging to the smoldering wreck. The Special Operations commander overseeing the Sept. 2 attack ... ordered a second strike to comply with Hegseth’s instructions."

And Trump wants him to walk free.

This POTUS doesn't give a rat's ass about stopping narco-trafficking.
