Acting as judge, jury, and executioner against civilian vessels would lead to war crimes charges with nearly any other country’s leader.

Sen. Susan Collins: *silence*

Question: “No insight on the Americans killed by the Israeli military, Senator?”

In a horrifying article about the dangers of Teslas, one point stands out: Teslas automatically disengage self-driving mode <1 second before an imminent crash--not enough time for the driver to react, but enough for Tesla to deny responsibility for fatal crashes, since self-driving "wasn't engaged."

this isn't hyperbole or caricature! It's a straightforwad, accurate characterization of what he said.
Trump's argument for the elimination of the estate tax is that the heirs of the super rich will no longer have to go beg a predatory Jewish banker for a bridge loan to overcome cash flow problems associated with the $15 million dollar estate they're about to get.

Brownshirt ICE rolled up to my local Home Depot today and got the F-off treatment.

Shoutout to this woman because this is exactly how it’s done. No badge, face covered = F*ck all the way off.

It’s a failure of journalism to do shit like this. Donald Trump has said that something will happen “within two weeks” at least 5,000 times in the past decade with easily over 4,900 of those “deadlines” passing with no action.

This is unfathomably shameful. How do we even have to debate this? Why would anyone ever again be so foolish as to trust or help the United States if this is how we treat people who risk their lives on our behalf?
An Afghan man who worked as a translator for the U.S. military during the war was detained by ICE after showing up for a hearing inside of a federal courthouse in San Diego, his attorney says. He fears that if he returns to Afghanistan, he would be tortured or even killed, @nbcsandiego.com reports.

When Congress funded the DOD, there was no line item for big-boy birthday presidential military parades. Where did the money for Trump’s vainglorious spectacle come from? Cutting Army pay and benefits? Reducing training? Or just Departmental slush funds from bloated annual budgets?

Tomorrow, Trump will parade tanks through the streets of Washington, not to honor the troops, but to glorify himself. This ad is our response.

It’s blunt. It’s true. And it’s what no one else is willing to say out loud. We’re already growing our grassroots team.

Did ICE call in a fake emergency to the FDNY to give cover to a van leaving full of immigrants? They've done it before and looks like they've done it again.

@hellgatenyc.com with the scoop.

The FDNY Was Sped to ICE Headquarters for a Bogus 911 Call: 'They Used Us'
After the fire truck pulled up to the federal building where more than 100 people are being held, a van of the sort ICE uses to transport detainees sped out past protesters.

The corruption here isn’t even my biggest concern. The security risk!?! The security risk is astronomical and totally unfixable. Listening devices? Tracking devices!? Software backdoors!? Intentional AND unintentional!? Unmeasurable risk.

Take a moment to imagine the sniggering adolescent minds who thought that this was a good idea.

No one thought to say, “Maybe we shouldn’t actually use the official White House account to insult the Church… and amplify the juvenile narcissism of the president.”
