Here's the ICE agent "defending himself" by shooting into the driver's side window of a car that's pulling *away* from him.

Senator Kelly is correct.
Plus a Public Service Announcement:
KEY section of Department of Defense's Law of War Manual is 18.3.2.1.
The VERY rule on the "requirement" to refuse illegal orders gives as its paradigmatic example of what is "clearly illegal:
"orders to fire upon the shipwrecked."

The New York Times **HAD EMAILS IN ITS POSSESSION** tying Donald Trump directly to Jeffrey Epstein's global elite pedophile cabal conspiracy –– in the middle of a 2016 election where a global elite pedophile cabal conspiracy was a HUGE topic –– and they didn't publish one word it for a decade.

I wonder if the United States can learn anything from the last time a major industrialized country decided to isolate itself from the rest of the world?

I can't tell you how many interviews I've done where I've been asked: If Trump's policies are so problematic, why are U.S. stocks rising so rapidly.
A bit of international context illustrates the real issue here.
U.S. stocks have dramatically underperformed other advanced economies.

Everything about this headline is hilarious. And the YouTube views are a reflection of how wildly the right has overblown the number of people paying attention.

There is simply no value to Democrats in helping with passing budgets or CRs when the administration claims limitless arbitrary impoundment and rescission powers.
Breaking news: The Trump administration asked the Supreme Court to allow it to freeze billions of dollars in foreign aid, potentially setting up the biggest test yet of the president’s authority over federal spending.

The emergency request could set up a major test of the president’s assertion that he has the unilateral authority to block spending budgeted by Congress.

Lisa Loeb hits #1 with “Stay (I Missed You) 31 years ago today.
She’d been working as a temp at Ernst & Young when her friend Ethan Hawke brought the song to @benstiller.redhour.com, who used it in “Reality Bites.”
It remains the only #1 hit by an artist who was not already signed to a label.
