Trump and Vance’s contradictory messages on these killings:
1: Our glorious military carried out hyper-precise attacks on dastardly drug smugglers.
2: If you’re an innocent fisherman, watch out because we might kill you by mistake!

Sen. Chris Murphy: "We are quickly turning into a banana republic. POTUS is employing the full power of the federal government—the FCC, the DOJ—in order to punish, lock up, take down off the air all of his political enemies. This is what happens in Iran, Cuba, and China."

It is not about Kimmel or what he said. It is about the US government forcing a network to fire someone - no government should have that power. If the network decided this on their own, that’s one thing. But in this case they absolutely did not.

The second amendment guarantees the right to a militia to guard against federal tyranny. But if a president can use that force against its own state, against the wishes of that state, then it is no militia at all and a clear violation of the second amendment.

1. This week, the FBI released its comprehensive crime report for 2024, which revealed that both VIOLENT CRIME and PROPERTY CRIME reached their LOWEST LEVELS SINCE THE 1960s
This a massive story. But you might not have heard about it, even if you follow the news closely.
