Former US military lawyers speak out:

"The Former JAGs Working Group unanimously considers both the giving and the execution of these orders, if true, to constitute war crimes, murder, or both."

Statement on Media Reports of Pentagon “No Quarter” Orders in Caribbean Boat Strikes

1/2
• If the U.S. military operation to interdict and destroy suspected narcotraFicking vessels is a “non-international armed conflict,” as the Trump Administration suggests, orders to “kill everybody,” which can reasonably be regarded as an order to give “no quarter,” and to “double-tap” a target in order to kill survivors, are clearly illegal under international law. In short, they are war crimes. • If the U.S. military operation is not an armed conflict of any kind, these orders to kill helpless civilians clinging to the wreckage of a vessel our military destroyed would subject everyone from SECDEF down to the individual who pulled the trigger to prosecution under U.S. law for murder. Highlighted sentence at the end of the document reads: Again, the bottom line is that, since orders to kill survivors of an attack at sea are “patently illegal,” anyone who issues or follows such orders can and should be prosecuted for war crimes, murder, or both.

Tumblr post: "there's something endlessly hilarious to me about the phrase 'hotly debated' in a academic context. Like I just picture a bunch of nerds at podiums and one's like 'of course there was a Paleolithic bear cult in northern Eurasia' and another one just looks him in the eye and says "I'll kill you in real life, kevin". Reply post is a screenshot of some printed text that says "the Milton scholars screamed and argued about how the serpent was supposed to move before it crawled on its belly. Dr. Matthews, enraged that Dr. Goldstein could believe the serpent bounced around on the coiled end of its tail, flipped over the conference table. 'Satan is not a fucking pogo stick!' he howled.

This is what MAGA has done to desecrate our flag. Russian orcs now attack Ukrainian forces with an American flag on their tank.

What would Reagan think?

We will never recover.

NEW from me — FEMA staffers say the response to the Texas floods is horrifyingly slow, and it may be because of DHS Secretary Kristi Noem's recent increased control over how the agency spends money.

"If this is how they are going to do a major hurricane response, people are fucked.”
FEMA response to deadly Texas floods delayed & deficient with Noem in charge
Staffers sound the alarm.

We STILL don’t even final estimates for:
-how many people lose health insurance
-how many people lose SNAP
-who wins/loses and by how much
-total Medicaid cuts
-total health care cuts
-total SNAP cuts
-total education cuts

Because knowing that didn’t matter to the people who supported it.

This is a nuclear option. Senate Rs want to violate the Byrd rule by creating long-term deficits, using 312 of the CBA to assert that they aren’t

But they know the parls will say they can’t do that

So Rs are refusing to meet w/ her so they can pretend they didn’t ignore her when they do it anyway
bbkogan.bsky.social Bobby Kogan @bbkogan.bsky.social · Jun 29
I want to be very clear about what’s happening: Senate Republicans know the parliamentarian will say they can’t use 312 to pretend tax cuts are free (because two have two Byrd rule problems).

So they are refusing to meet with her so they can pretend they never ignored her when they do it anyway.
NEWS — Senate R's refusing Dem request for a bipartisan meeting with the parliamentarian on using current policy baseline to pay for tax cuts. Budget Cmte GOP spox: "There is no need to have a parliamentarian meeting with respect to the current policy baseline because Section 312 of the Congressional Budget Act gives Graham — as Chairman of the Budget Committee — the authority to set the baseline. "There is nothing to debate and we consider this matter settled."
