Officers shooting a man, running away from law enforcement, who is not a target of law enforcement, and who poses no threat to law enforcement, is murder. Federal officers do not have the power to commit summary executions because they are aggrieved.

This is the hope.

Trump campaigned on an “America First” platform. Now he wants to "run" Venezuela? 60% of Americans live paycheck to paycheck. Health care is collapsing. Housing is unaffordable. Trump should address these major crises at home and end his illegal military adventurism abroad.

Sen. Tim Kaine, D-Va., says Trump’s military action in Venezuela is “unauthorized.” “Where will this go next? Will the President deploy our troops to protect Iranian protesters? To enforce the fragile ceasefire in Gaza? To battle terrorists in Nigeria? To seize Greenland or the Panama Canal?”

Just woke up to news of Trump's overthrow of the Venezuelan gov't. My local NBC channels is celebrating by posting the comments of Venezuelanos who are rightfully glad, but not showing the reactions of Americans who had no say in the operation. The US is now a rogue nation. What's next...Iran?

You are up to date.
