I've got new details coming soon on what lawmakers saw on the video of the second strike and what they heard in the classified briefing today. It's deeply unnerving stuff. Stay tuned.

The memo purportedly justifying these murders also contains a lengthy section that lays out arguments defending the actions of those carrying out the strikes. In short, it *preemptively* defends them from potential prosecution later.

Experts say this is unusual. 2/

Trump's illegal murders in the Caribbean just got worse. An internal DOJ memo on the bombings says the victims are waging war on the US, but per NYT, it extensively cites the WH's *own claims* to this effect as evidence!

It gets even darker than that. 1/

“This could indicate awareness of potential criminal exposure" and may “reflect consciousness on their part that they’re in legally treacherous territory," legal expert @bcfinucane.bsky.social tells me.

If Dems win House they can get to the bottom of all of this. 5/

Something has to give in order to carry out all these deportations. In this case it's investigations into child abuse, drug cartels, and more. #HSI #trumpfail #usa #trumpsucks #magafail

it sure seems like Utah Senator Mike Lee is trying to make the case that deadly measles outbreaks don’t bother him as long as immigrants are the ones affected.

Trump’s Agriculture Secretary Rollins & Johnson called 42 million Americans losing SNAP benefits a “silver lining” because it sparked “a national conversation.”

Imagine being so detached from hunger that you see families skipping meals as a PR opportunity.

Evidently, President Trump got all the proof he needs that vaccines are safe and effective. He voted with his arm yesterday and got the highly beneficial Covid and flu shots. Amid the sea of confusion RFKJ has generated about vaccines, all Americans should know that Trump is getting vaccinated.
Last month Trump said he wanted proof that COVID vaccines are effective. Yesterday, during his "semiannual" physical, Trump received a COVID vaccine as well as a flu shot.

That's because vaccines — which Trump's administration have made harder to get — work.

This week, MAGA figures claimed Kristi Noem "stared down" violent antifa protesters in Portland. Turns out they were talking mostly about a guy in a chicken suit.

This episode opens a window into how MAGA propaganda works and MSM failure to handle it. 1/

MAGA Implodes over Kristi Noem’s “Stare Down” with Man in Chicken Suit
A good New York Times piece on Portland nevertheless demonstrates how the conventions of objective reporting fail to accurately capture the bad faith driving pro-Trump propaganda.

At a press conference in Florida—yes, at a detention center called Alligator Alcatraz—Trump said he’d arrest NYC mayoral candidate Zohran Mamdani if he defies ICE.

Authoritarian threats in broad daylight. Don’t look away.
