What happened to freedom of navigation and no harmful interference in international waters. Wake up! This was a war crime targeting individuals based on assumptions without evidence. No due process, no regard for international law, no thought for constitutional law.
Was the deadly US attack on the Venezuelan vessel legal?
The U.S. military killed 11 people aboard a vessel in the Caribbean on Tuesday.

They’re going to try to make you feel insane for opposing this war. They’ll ignore protests and downplay any opposition. They’ll try to strongarm you into submission.
They did it with Iraq and they’ll do it again.
And then a few years later they’ll pretend they were with you all along.

The war of semantics waged within. We stand for peace? With this twisted wordplay, he weaponizes cognitive dissonance, bending lies into truths until even fiction feels justified. How can you not see? Your leader is a fraud, a grifter, a puppet of foreign interests, hellbent on destroying the USA.
Vance says U.S. 'not at war with Iran, we're at war with Iran's nuclear program'
President Donald Trump said Saturday night that the U.S. had dropped bombs on three Iranian nuclear sites, the first time the U.S. has directly attacked Iran.

In other words, he promised repeatedly during the campaign he had a secret plan to end the war in 24 hours and he was just bullshitting everyone because he doesn’t have the first clue what to do, he gave away all negotiating leverage months ago, and his special envoy is a dope.

He said he would be providing health coverage - His new bill eliminates healthcare for a huge part of the country

Republicans are getting desperate and forced to back peddle by the courts. This attempt at a power grab will be a short term victory for them. Trust the courts to win the long term victories! We are seeing them do the right things, we just cannot get quiet!
Right now, Republicans in Congress are trying to push through a bill that would put millions of Americans at risk of losing their health care.
They want to cut federal funding for Medicaid, take away tax credits that help more people afford coverage, and raise costs for working class families.

Not getting much attention, but the Senate GOP is about to start voting - to make sure banks can charge higher overdraft fees. Seriously.
