Assuming every boat Trump and Hegseth blew up contained the amount of drugs they claim, Hernandez was responsible for bringing more drugs into the US than every one of them had combined. By far. And yet, Trump murders 80+ people and counting while pardoning the narco kingpin.

This. USNA 81 grad. We were specifically taught about My Lai as THE example of NOT following illegal orders. Thank you, @willbunch.bsky.social for point this out.
In 1968, a soldier named Hugh Thompson defied orders to save Vietnamese lives during the My Lai massacre. Eventually seen as a hero, in real time he was vilified and nearly court-martialed

It's Congress' job to stop Trump's war crimes, not the troops. My new column www.inquirer.com/columnists/a...

Publicize what these people said.

Publicize that they asked soldiers to abide by the Constitution and disobey illegal commands.

The meaning of what's happening with these demands from DJT needs to be crystal clear.
Again, every elected Democrat needs to put out a video stating exactly what Kelly and the others said. If ever there were a line to draw in the sand, it’s here. The military is not the president’s Praetorian Guard.

The 100 lowest-paying US corporations spent $644B on stock buybacks from 2019 to 2024.

Buybacks artificially boost share prices and inflate CEO pay.

The typical worker at these companies earned $35k last year.

Meanwhile, the average CEO was paid $17.2M

See the problem?

When Putin consolidated power in Russia, one of his earliest and most decisive moves was to seize control of the media environment. Independent television channels such as NTV, once critical of the Kremlin, were stripped of their licenses or taken over by state-aligned companies in the early 2000s.
