The US periodically murders, without trial, people in boats that it has deemed to be involved in drug smuggling. Again: this is murder, plain and simple. There is no law, national or international, that can even pretend to justify it. The US has simply claimed the right to murder whoever it wants.

Reminder: this is LITERALLY not how it works. A Speaker is only elected AFTER everyone is seated. Johnson won't be Speaker when seating happens. There literally will not be a Speaker.
RAJU: So if Trump says 'Don't seat Democrats,' you'll resist him? MIKE JOHNSON: I'll do my job as Speaker. The president has vowed of course that he wants to follow the law as well.

This is crazypants. The DOJ charged a former FBI agent with false statements because she told Congress she didn't know details about an article she didn't read.
Donovan: So your position is that if someone says "I don't know" in response to a question about an article they didn't read, that would be a false statement? Witt: We believe her response "I don't know" is a false statement.

I am Clayton County, Georgia and have been talking to older Black voters outside a polling place and ahead of this Obama rally and can confirm: older Black voters to a tee are FURIOUS about the Supreme Court killing the Voting Rights Act. This is the home of John Lewis and MLK.
One thing I've been noodling on is why is the Dem wave seemingly way bigger in the south than the upper midwest and the answer I keep coming back to is that Black voters are fucking pissed about redistricting and the end of the VRA.

Donovan goes back to Patel. He directed you to investigate Floris? Witt: Directive in July given to Kansas City, I was assigned through chain of command Donovan: Is that normally how investigations play out? Witt: I've not had a tasking from a director in my career...agrees this was "unusual"

This is highly suggestive of a senior government officer on the take. “Hegseth reported at least $3.1mn in cash, retirement investments and bitcoin in his newly released 2025 annual financial disclosure. One bank account held more than $1mn, compared with a normal $15,001–$50,000 range for an

We’re going out on a limb and guessing @justinjpearson.bsky.social opponent Brent Taylor would be a “NO” vote on releasing the Epstein files. #TN9 😕

It's really damning. The accusations are numerous and well-supported. But I was really struck by the descriptions of Trump's behavior -- the name dropping, strong-arming, and attempts to buy off silence. His gross rivalry with Epstein. It's all so familiar. It's shit he's been doing his entire life.
Beyond disgusted by even more rape allegations against the President of the United States. "In total, more than 25 different women...have independently accused Donald Trump of rape, sexual assault, or other sexual misconduct." Report w/ new details: democrats-judiciary.house.gov/sites/evo-su...
