The Trump administration is abusing the military justice system to target its political opponents. A despicable new low for a group that strives everyday to find the moral bottom.

This is not a peace plan.

It's complete capitulation to the war criminal in the Kremlin, orchestrated exclusively by Trump and his apparent master there without any input from Europe or Ukraine. It is obscene that the White House even saw fit to advance this proposal, let alone issue an ultimatum.

In normal times, it would be a major scandal for the President to direct his AG to criminally investigate his political opponents to deflect from his own involvement in a major scandal — and for the AG to immediately announce she is doing it. The Epstein scandal and cover up just got even bigger.
