It's great that reporting on the double tap has spotlighted the abject criminality of this Administration.

But don't forget: Venezuela is not waging war on America or Americans, and the men killed were not combatants.

The first strike was every bit as illegal as the second.

He’d be an ass in any crowd good or bad. He’s changed his name 3 times, his religion twice and won’t stand up for his wife. I bet he steals her eyeliner.

MAGA mantra

Versions of the same:
For my friends, everything; for my enemies, the law.

One group the law protects but does not bind; and another group the law binds but does not protect.

And that foundation of fascism everywhere: the strong do what they will, while the weak suffer what they must.
