they've been pretending that this made up thing was real for a year but now that they'd have to actually demonstrate its existence in court they're going to cram it down the memory hole, amazing stuff

Justice Dept. Drops Claim That Venezuela’s ‘Cartel de los Soles’ Is an Actual Group

we're going to take you inside one of America's oldest and most venerated newsrooms to see how these seasoned reporters cover such a momentous situation with insight and gravitas [opens door to newsroom and a bunch of reporters playing with GI Joes] "pew pew, take that Madumbo you're dead wheee!!!"

You really don’t get to just indict a sitting head of state to provide justification for a military invasion and kidnapping, but as ever might makes right.

What’s worse, Fetterman working harder to get a pardon for Netanyahu than healthcare for his own constituents….or the fact that he did the Netanyahu letter in secret?
