Still a cynical optimist trying to make sense of it all but I will never sell America short. The resistance lives on.

Follow up: it doesn’t say it’s illegal to fire on incapacitated shipwrecked. It just says it’s illegal to fire on the shipwrecked. Where’d you get “incapacitated” and why are you such an asshole?
Q: "The Pentagon's Law of War manual…says 'Orders to fire upon the shipwrecked would be clearly illegal.' Given that, how was that follow up strike on the two survivors legal?"
Tom Cotton: "They were not incapacitated… They were sitting or standing on top of a capsized boat."

Today we remember the thousands of Americans who died in the attack on Pearl Harbor 84 years ago. Nearly half of those lost were aboard the USS Arizona, and I remember what a moving experience it was when Gabby and I visited the memorial. We’ll never forget their sacrifice.

First of all her name is Kaitlan Collins and she’s far from stupid & nasty. Next, this nastiness from this cockroach of a president needs to be checked by somebody! Since when is asking a totally relevant question a problem? This isn’t his White House.

Schiff: "I think that all of these strikes are unlawful. They are a form of extrajudicial killing. These boats are not invading the US in an armed assault ... the fact the administration may put a group of organizations on a list doesn't confer on a president the ability to kill them at sea."

Today, we honor the Americans we lost 84 years ago during the tragic attack on Pearl Harbor.
As we reflect on the painful losses of that fateful day, we remember those who defended our nation and the courageous individuals who signed up to serve on battlefields across the globe.

First Trump claimed his attacks on immigrants were targeting "illegals." Now people who followed the rules are being denied US citizenship.
First Trump told Europe to pay more for defense. Now his National Security Strategy is bashing Europe for not being white enough.
The common thread: racism.
