Bombing boats, when you don't know who or what is on board without stopping to check, and then order the survivors, holding on to the wreckage, killed is murder. It's like shooting fish in a barrel. #wtpBLUE #DemVoice1 #ProudBlue #VoteBlue2026

Not what RFK Jr told me! He never uses fluoride and his brain is…oh, ok
“In the first US study looking at whether the recommended fluoride levels in drinking water affects brain function, researchers found that the hot-button mineral has no negative impacts on cognition – and may actually be giving it a boost.”
They are trying to dumb-down America.

Department of Defense Law of War Manual, Sec. 18.3.2.1 states the "requirement" to refuse illegal orders.
What’s its key example? Wait for it . . . It’s "orders to fire upon the shipwrecked."

Colonists needed to communicate during the Rev. War so USPS was formed. It proved so vital it was written into the Constitution & served as a secure way to hold elections.

When we limit abortion access to “exceptions,” we send the message that women must first suffer before they are trusted with choice. That is not justice. That is control.

Bombing vessels in the Caribbean without congressional authorization is already an unconstitutional use of military force.

The charges against Comey & Letitia James weren’t dismissed on the facts.
They were dismissed because Trump illegally installed a totally unqualified loyalist to prosecute them.
This is Trumpism in one sentence:
Loyalty over law. Always.

Defending democracy is to protect the right of every person! It’s refusing to hand our future to authoritarians who want obedience instead of freedom, chaos instead of accountability.
They want us divided, discouraged and silent.
We will give them unity, defiance, and a hell of a lot of noise!

Senator Kelly is correct.
Plus a Public Service Announcement:
KEY section of Department of Defense's Law of War Manual is 18.3.2.1.
The VERY rule on the "requirement" to refuse illegal orders gives as its paradigmatic example of what is "clearly illegal:
"orders to fire upon the shipwrecked."

The New Deal wasn’t built on a promise that there would be “no ceiling” for the richest Americans.
Quite the opposite, in fact. FDR knew its politics could only work if he singled out the rich as villains and knew that its policies could only work if the rich paid their fair share in taxes.
