This is why military service members should refuse to follow illegal orders. Because when the shit hits the fan, Trunp and Hegseth will deny everything and blame you. bsky.app/profile/acyn...
Reporter: Does the administration deny that that second strike happened or did it happen and the administration denies that Hegseth gave the order
Leavitt: The latter is true

the democratic party could save this country by availing itself to the ICC and begging it to set up a court in the US which would simultaneously restore faith in democracy and our institutions by finally ending barbaric practices like JLWOP but they won’t because they also love bombing

Admittedly I am just a courtroom trial lawyer but I'm pretty sure the First Amendment also applies to the instructor giving the student an F for writing a bad essay
Always liked Parker, so this nastiness is rather disappointing.
I’ll always defend trans rights as I have all my career. But I also believe in the First Amendment’s protecting people being wrong.
And that’s where my engagement will respectfully end for the day.

Thing is, we DID hear about it at his confirmation hearing.
Every single senator who voted to confirm Hegseth knew he held these views about the laws of war.
They voted to confirm him anyway.

Everyone should read this terrifying thread about Hegseth’s published views wrt war crimes. It’s pretty fucking radical …. We needed to hear about this in his confirmation hearing.
A chapter in Hegseth’s book is literally titled “More Lethality, Less Lawyers.”
It’s almost as if there were signs!

This makes so much more sense when you remember she has systemically ignored the diversity of American poetry… I’m like 90% sure the only nonwhite poet she has ever acknowledged in writing was WEB DuBois.
I have to tell you what really happened to the plums...
Elise New seems to have offered them to Woody Allen in exchange for his involvement with her edX MOOC.
One creepy slimey scammy thing after another in those files.

The top story on NYT right now is "Trump re-opens government"
Chat, is it good when you’re being ruled by an increasingly senile monster, so depraved he’s described by his pal, Jeffrey “Child Molester” Epstein, as “evil beyond belief”?
Why again did the NYT sit on all of this?

Wow.
Jeffrey Epstein writing about Trump in 2018:
"He feels alone and is nuts!!! I told everyone from day one. Evil beyond belief. Mad, and most thought I was speaking metaphorically. It's obvious he could crack. Stormy Daniels? Lies after lies after lies."

What Ken Paxton is doing here is deranged -- suing organizations that provide legal assistance to immigrants (especially immigrant children) -- and also we should see it as the test case for what the GOP wants to do.
There is nothing illegal—or unconstitutional—about funding legal support to ensure fairness in the courts. This lawsuit is a political stunt, wasting taxpayer dollars at a time when our communities need integrity, not spectacle.
