I don't think we'll ever get another sentence which sums up everything the New York Times embodies quite like "Some legal experts have called it a crime to summarily kill civilians".
hey @nytimes.com: there is no counterpoint here. There are no credible legal experts who would EVER say that the US military has any right or authority to blow civilian craft out of the Caribbean and kill their crews from afar without any provocation. There is no other side to this question.

If you hate political violence, you should hate Charlie Kirk.
He was not “practicing politics the right way”—he was a very well paid henchman for the same guys who are trying to make it illegal to oppose them.
He bussed people to J6. He encouraged political violence against his enemies.

When a right-wing man murdered Democratic lawmakers in Minnesota, progressives asked MAGA to tone down the rhetoric to prevent more violence. Within hours of Kirk’s murder, motive still unknown, the right is demanding that the government wage a campaign of violence against their enemies.

40% of Republicans think the COVID vaccine killed more people than the COVID virus. One in four believe that QAnon is real.
No matter how far they radicalize, we are told over and over again that the people being rude to them are the problem.

No kings. Abolish ICE. Solidarity with those out protesting today. Fascists hate it when they find out they’re in the minority. You see what I did there?

Needs to be said over and over again but immigration is GREAT. Immigrants are great. Undocumented immigrants are an exploited underclass. Abolishing ICE is the compromise position. These monsters belong in prison.

if Thunberg is brave enough to repeatedly put herself directly in harm’s way, then journalists can be brave enough to say that a civilian vessel was illegally seized in international waters, and its crew abducted
BREAKING: A Gaza-bound aid boat carrying Greta Thunberg and other activists has been diverted to Israel, Israel's Foreign Ministry says.

Everything that’s happened over the past six months has been a response to an imaginary crisis. There is no immigrant invasion. No trade crisis. No scientific or governance crisis. Just people completely high off their own supply trying to fundamentally reorder society. None of this had to happen.

The arguments against birthright citizenship aren't credible exercises of intellectual exploration; they are anti-constitutional themselves.
The purpose of the Citizenship Clause was to end the debate. Entertaining anything other than citizenship by native birth is an attack on the 14th Amendment.

1/4. On the White House’s theory, if they abduct you, get you on a helicopter, get to international waters, shoot you in the head, and drop your corpse into the ocean, that is legal, because it is the conduct of foreign affairs.

The people that keep harping on about his first term economy don’t realize Obama spent 8 years digging out of the mess Bush left him and then handed over an economy in good shape. In other words. He was born on third base and thought he hit a triple.
