Now “being dragged by a vehicle in an earlier incident” is being trotted out as an excuse to somehow justify the murder of an innocent in Minneapolis.

If PTSD is so severe, why are such damaged individuals making life or death decisions in high stress situations? Why are innocents paying the price?

Colombian President Gustavo Petro just went after Trump:⁠

“A clan of pedophiles wants to destroy our democracy. To keep (the Epstein) list from coming out, they send warships to kill fishermen and threaten our neighbor with invasion for their oil.”⁠

My whole life, advocating war has been fed to me as “the adult position,” akin to drinking your coffee black or reading the business section of the newspaper. Let’s be very clear — war is the childish nonsense of impulsive destructive idiots playing baby-brained video games with real human lives.

President Trump's lethal strikes on boats in the Caribbean are cold-blooded murder. We need to know how his administration is claiming to justify them.

Tell Congress: Transparency and accountability can't wait.
Tell Congress: Stop President Trump's illegal boat strikes
Since September, the Trump administration has murdered nearly 90 people in international waters, ordering over 20 lethal strikes on civilian boats near Venezuela. Congress must conduct oversight and call for an end to this illegal bombing campaign.

The president doesn’t have the authority to act as judge, jury, and executioner.

Killing civilians is a crime under both domestic and international law. That's why we and our partners are suing the Trump administration to demand they release their legal justifications for these unlawful strikes.

BREAKING: We’re suing the Trump administration to demand they release the secret memo they claim justifies their illegal strikes on civilians at sea.

Transparency must come immediately — while there’s still an opportunity to stop this cruel and unconstitutional bombing campaign.
