Awful: Trump's boat bombings are now being justified by a new legal memo that relies on WH's own determinations as evidence. Memo also says people can't be prosecuted for the killings. But that reveals WH knows there's legal vulnerability here, Ds tell me.

Trump Boat Bombings Darken as Secret Memo Reveals Holes in Legal Case
A new White House memo argues that those carrying out the boat attacks can’t be prosecuted. Why? Because the White House says so!

Right wing fascists would have us believe that hatred of Netanyahu and his government is antisemitic. It isn't, any more than hatred of Trump and his catch-farts is hatred of all Americans. Evil should be called out wherever it appears.

Everyday Americans get nickel and dimed while the rich dodge taxes.

They struggle to get by while the wealth of the 1% skyrockets.

They see their voices drowned out while the well-connected avoid accountability.

There are two sets of rules in America: One for the rich. Another for everyone else.

Meanwhile Canada’s Liberal Central Banker Prime Minister has cut E.V. mandates and subsidies, cut 16000 jobs and luxury taxes on yachts and private jets, and refuses to implement even a 1% annual asset tax on wealth over $5M — because his business experience is in shifting wealth to the rich
Good morning with good news: Global EV sales reach 1.9 million in October 2025, up 23% year-to-date thru October.

There is only one reason Trump directed Bondi to investigate specific names in the Epstein files.

It’s so the DOJ can stonewall growing calls for their full release.

Not long ago, the DOJ declared there was nothing to investigate.

You are witness to the most blatant coverup in American history.

“Defamation” suggests incorrectly that BBC‘s splicing changed the meaning of Trump’s speech.

In fact, BBC simply edited out the incoherent rambles, for efficiency. Trump’s said much worse, on all fronts.
