Duckworth: "It is a war crime. It's illegal. No matter how you put it, it's all illegal. I've been shot down behind enemy lines. Under the laws of war, you are supposed to help render aid to that individual ... you're not allowed to go back in and kill them."

We are NOT okay. This is NOT normal. It’s NOT constitutional and it’s NOT making America Great.
Putting people down never lifts anyone up. It rots them from within.
Stop #IceLawlessness
And for damn sure - treat our veterans better than this (with or without citizenship).

Make sure everyone you know hears about #ICELawlessness & knows the story of US CITIZEN & IRAQ WAR VETERAN, George Retes.
"ICE officers used tear gas, broke his car window, and applied physical force, including kneeling on him, while he complied with their instructions."
Is this freedom?

Russia failed to conquer Ukraine. So Trump is handing Putin what he couldn’t win on the battlefield. Territory. Limits on Ukraine’s military. And $300B in assets. Shameful. Dangerous. Unacceptable.

Unearthed 2016 video: Pete Hegseth straight up says US troops will not follow ‘unlawful orders’ from the commander-in-chief, and there have to be consequences for ‘abject war crimes’.
Guess it suddenly gets blurry when it’s Trump issuing the unlawful orders.

If we're not at war, Pete Hegseth is a murderer. If we are at war, Pete Hegseth is still a murderer. He's a murderer. And you don't need to go to The Hague to hold him accountable because there are perfectly good, American laws AGAINST MURDER.

Pete Hegseth Should Be Charged With Murder
No matter how you look at the strikes on alleged “drug boats”—as acts of war or attacks on civilians—Hegseth has committed a crime and should be prosecuted.

This is the reason why the Trump regime doesn’t want to release the monthly job reports! US was supposed to gain 40k jobs in the private sector in Nov, but instead we lost 32k.

Wow. Horrible job numbers this morning.
United States was supposed to gain 40k private sector jobs in November.
We lost 32k private sector jobs.

What's incredible is how they have commodified everything, cheapening it while making it more expensive. Loyalty, homes, children, freedom, love making, good health, jobs...all commodities for sale to the highest bidder.
the republican party has nothing to offer that helps the citizens or the economy. all they do is steal from others - ideas, bills, projects, money....
the party of thieves
