Knowledge of the law has broken my brain, darkened my humor, and created my cynicism. I hope you find it entertaining
Just a reminder his wife was appointed to the federal bench at 33 under Trump I. She had never handled a trial before. She still sits in the middle district of FL
Utterly pathetic and historically unprecedented.

I can't tell if this is a CYA move, or Pirro is a big enough dumbass to mess up the entire US economy w/o clearing it up the chain
Wild reporting from Bloomberg. Jeanine Pirro apparently freelanced the subpoenas and criminal investigation of Jerome Powell.

Now we know the true warrior ethos is realistic CSAM
U.S. Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth announced the integration of Elon Musk's xAI platform, Grok, into military networks as part of a new "AI acceleration strategy" during a visit to SpaceX.

Power of the Purse!?! Who needs checks and balances?
Trump: “I am pleased to announce that the Interim Authorities in Venezuela will be turning over between 30 and 50 MILLION Barrels of High Quality, Sanctioned Oil, to the United States of America. This Oil will be sold at its Market Price, and that money will be controlled by me, as President”

FFS we're going to strip Venezuela for parts and sell to the highest bidder and it's all going to go into their pockets

All it's going to cost is so many American and Venezuelan lives
Q: Who will run Venezuela?

TRUMP: Well it's largely going to be for a period of time the people standing right behind me. We're gonna be running it.

I don't think it's possible to have a "judicious transition" involving an invasion by a foreign power
Trump on Venezuela: "We're going to run the country until such time as we can do a safe, proper, and judicious transition"
January 3, 2026 at 5:20 PM
Cool, so not only do we have economic systems from the age of imperialism, we now are just straight up trying to colonize again

Worth noting, US forces have no control over Venezuelan territory
Trump: "We're there now, but we're going to stay until such time as the pop -- proper transition can take place. So we're gonna stay until such time as -- we're gonna run it essentially."

Here's a link to the 2020 DoJ press release on the Maduro indictment. It basically accused him of all the illegal acts and corruption of the Venezuelan military as "Cártel de Los Soles" and coordinating with FARC

Just a reminder, the Screwworm epidemic in North America was eradicated in late 1900s by US cooperation with Central America

We will now spend billions to get rid of this pest we previously eradicated b/c we didn't want to send a million to Panama

Lol, DHS is trying to depict the ideal America by stealing a foreign artist's work
Stolen image (of course)!

Kristi Noem: "It's amazing what President Trump has done. 2.5 million people have left our country because of his leadership."

I want to be so clear, this is an illegal usurpation of Congress power of the purse
Trump announces tax funded “warrior dividends” for troops

Good to know that Buck v. Bell will be coming back and Skinner v. Oklahoma will be repealed

They're saying eugenics with their whole mouth
Here's Trump judicial nominee Justin Olson today, admitting than in 2015, he gave a sermon in which he said that “marriage was not intended for all people,” including “our handicapped friends or our persons with physical disabilities that might prevent the robust marriage that we’re called to.”

Geressy's a right-wing man-fluencer type, they're almost exclusively into femboy twinks, trans women, and being cuckolded. The only surprising thing is that he reads his porn

I asked the Pentagon about Pete Hegseth's mentor. Then the threats started.

There's a saying, "a grand Jury will indict a ham sandwich." The fact this phrase exists and the DOJ still can't indict goes to show:

1) How incompetent these GOP hack prosecutors are, and

2) How BS these charges are

He's right, a large purchaser could drive prices down. It's what Medicare/aid does

So, hear me out, what if we had one massive insurer for everybody. Imagine how low we could drive prices down
Rand Paul on his healthcare plan: "What if you could join Costco? Costco has 44m members and if one person negotiated for all 44 and they bought a group plan like Toyota or General Motors does, they would be the largest collective entity in the country. They would drive prices down by sheer might."

There's a lot wrong with our immigration courts. The fact they're Article 1 courts and thus subject to the whims of whoever can promise the most gold laying geese to America every 4 years is just one of them. Albeit a big one

In 2022, TN cracked the blue district around Nashville into 3. Distributing the city Dem vote into larger, more rural districts to get another GoP seat

3 Years later, the GoP base got angry about rising prices and the Dems are getting out their base

This GoP gerrymander may just bite the GoP
TODAY IS THE DAY!

GET OUT AND VOTE. Polls are open 7 AM - 7 PM

WE GOT THIS!!!!!!

Buried in the article is this paragraph.

If the drugs aren't coming to America then even the DoD's paper-thin legal justification falls apart.

They're just killing people because they want to.
December 2, 2025 at 3:29 AM
It is self-defense to kill people who may smuggle drugs again is some Judge Dread level unconstitutionality.

The civilian equivalent of this logic would be shooting someone who was arrested for drug possession
FOX: You said the follow up strike was lawful. What law is it that allows no survivors?

LEAVITT: The strike was conducted in self defense to protect Americans
