some drug traffickers may be friends/associates; others, whom you bomb out of the water, may be rivals. why is that hard to grasp?
Thou shalt not pretend that you’re at war with drug traffickers while pardoning drug traffickers.
Thou Shalt Not Murder Fishermen While Pardoning Drug Lords

They demonstrated pretty conclusively that they understand how to cover pardons as if they are huge scandals when they ran multiple days of banner headlines and scolding op-eds and follow ups when Biden pardoned Hunter exactly one year ago.

They just choose not to for trump because they like him
It’s wild how the press is ok with the president abusing the pardon power. That used to be one of the most scrutinized things about a presidency.

Today's Trade Secrets newsletter. One of Donald Trump's (multiple, contradictory) aims in imposing tariffs was to close the trade deficit. Is it happening? No. But is it likely to happen? Also no.

I really want HASC/SASC to ask Hegseth to walk them through why he thought this was an appropriate government communication
Before you ask, yes apparently this is real. He must be taking comedy lessons and substances from Elon.

This is what the so-called "Secretary of War" is tweeting amid reports that his department ordered a second strike to make sure they killed survivors of a boat they attacked that they allege with no proof carries drugs (which doesn't justify bombing them even it were true)

A new post from Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth just a couple hours after President Trump said he wouldn’t have wanted a second strike on alleged narco boats and that Hegseth said he didn’t order second strikes.

Trump allowed 17 members of the Sinaloa cartel into the US.

In May he commuted the 6x life sentences of the leader of the Gangster Disciples, most notorious drug trafficking & murderous street gang in the US.

Now Honduran drug trafficker Hernandez.

Is Trump setting up his own drug corridor?

I know the press has lowered the bar for this one guy to such a degree that presidential is no longer visible and you need a spelunking crew to reach it, but it's nevertheless worth remembering that knowing about use of US military force abroad is a core part his job. Article II and all that.
Reporter: If there were a second strike that killed wounded people, would that be legal?

Trump: I don’t know that happened and Pete said he did not even know what people were talking about. I wouldn’t have wanted a second strike. The first strike was very lethal. It was fine.

Damn. This thread, man.

Suddenly the combination of Venezuelan boat bombings and the Hernandez pardon makes a lot more sense…
I got to thinking: "What if it's not about the contradiction between the Hernandez pardon and the air strikes, but about the consistency between them?"

As President of Honduras, he used the power of the government to go after certain cartels—primarily the rivals of the Sinaloa Cartel, with whom he

I told y’all that the thing about the lesser of two evils is that it’s less evil.
This is not the rapture. Things will not magically get better if we make them terrible by voting to enable more evil.

As @rfkuang.bsky.social puts it so beautifully, “We don’t vote for candidates we admire so much as we vote for the next fight that we want to have.”

a surprisingly cogent case that the trump administration is significantly tied to the sinaloa cartel and especially their cryptocurrency fueled money laundering operation

It would be so cool if we had a press corps that even pretended to care that the president is either straight up lying about his knowledge of war crimes or admitting he’s not actually the commander in chief of the military

The first strike was also murder. You can’t just up and kill civilians on the high seas and then claim you were at war with them.

Reporter: Governor Walz called for the release of your MRI results

Trump: They were perfect like my phone call where I got impeached.

Reporter: Can you tell us what they were looking at?

Trump: I have no idea. It was just an MRI. It wasn’t the brain because I took a cognitive test and aced it.
