I’m extremely concerned by reports the Trump administration destroyed a facility during a covert action in Venezuela.

If this was done without Gang of Eight oversight, it’s a serious violation of federal law and a dangerous escalation that pushes us closer to war: www.nbcnews.com/news/amp/rcn...

Trump says the U.S. took out a 'big facility' in Venezuela amid strikes on alleged drug boats

The president did not provide details about the apparent strike, which NBC News has not independently confirmed.

This is cute. It would be more effective as a well-written SNL sketch (because humor is our best weapon), but they get an A+ for effort.

Mueller, She Wrote @muellershewrote.com · Oct 31

The top three things Jesus was on about were feeding the hungry, healing the sick, and welcoming the stranger. Rich men have convinced so-called Christians to starve the hungry, gut health care, and deport the stranger to enrich themselves. It’s astoundingly anti-Christ.
