Today at @atrupar.com’s PN: the administration claims that Maduro, as president of Venezuela, is the de facto head of a drug cartel being targeted by military airstrikes. Compare this with Trump’s statement about pardoning the former Honduran president:

So…it’s not about drugs?
Juan Orlando Hernández, a former president of Honduras, helped orchestrate a decades-long scheme that prosecutors said brought more than 500 tons of cocaine into the U.S. He was convicted in a sweeping case last year, but President Trump said on Friday that he would pardon Hernandez.

Exactly! So it’s not about drugs? Or it’s about drugs unless Trump personally profits?? In which case, it there an amount he needs to profit?
“Ah, just one more thing, sir. You’re blowing up those boats, saying they’re filled with drugs headed for the US. But then you go and pardon the guy who brought in 400 tons of cocaine. That’s billions of doses. Help me understand that.”

Don’t forget that *Trump’s own lawyer’s argument* to the Supreme Court in the immunity case was that the check on the President using his immunity to order criminal acts was that those under him would not follow illegal orders. Now it’s a crime for lawmakers to remind servicemembers of that?
The President doesn't want you standing up and speaking out against him, so he's coming after me to intimidate all of us.
But I won't back down — and neither should you.
