Keith Boykin: The president does not have the legal authority to go in and kill people just because he thinks that they're narco terrorists. We know that there are a couple people who were survivors who were released, not put on trial in the United States. How are they such a great threat?

Donald Trump wants to allow new oil wells off California’s coast for the first time since 1984.

I have two words for him: Hell. No.

Trump officials are planning to propose oil drilling off the California coast for the first time in decades, according to a draft map reviewed by The Post.

The move is sure to antagonize Gov. Gavin Newsom and other Democrats in California.

Trump administration plan would open California to offshore oil drilling

A draft five-year plan for offshore oil development proposes selling leases on the West Coast, Gulf of Mexico and Alaska.
