Shooting survivors of small vessels at sea who pose no harm does not sound lawful at all. And even if they were running drugs the hypocrisy of a presidential pardon for a honduran boss jailed for importing 400t drugs is inexplicable and incoherent lawlessness
Pressure is mounting on Hegseth over his order to murder victims at sea.
Congressional committees to scrutinize U.S. killing of boat strike survivors — The Washington Post
The Senate and House armed services committees’ pledge followed a Washington Post report revealing that Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth ordered that a U.S. strike leave no survivors.

They struck civilian houses. They hit the local market.
Ordinary streets. Ordinary lives.

true. The UsA and Russia seek disraction by throwing dead cats around to attract attention. The dignified response is to ignore and defeat of russia will come because Ukraine is right and just to defend itself
The only way for this war to end is for Russia to leave Ukraine. All Ukraine has done since 2014 has been to defend its sovereignty. All Russia has done is invade, bomb, rape, imprison, assassinate Ukrainians. Is it any wonder nearly all former soviet states want to join NATO

Even when this war is over Russia should not be allowed back - it deserves permanent exclusion until it has repented and made amends - something it is unlikely to do. Why is the US admin so callously transactional. Disgusting
🇩🇪 After the G20 summit in, Merz stressed that none of the six G7 countries, except the US, has shown any willingness to see Russia back in the group. A decision is possible only with full consensus.
🇫🇷 Macron said that there are currently no grounds for Russia to return.

More signs the Russian economy is crumbling amid manipulated official data.
Almost 70% of Russians reported having ZERO savings in the first 2 weeks of November. This despite claims income is up.
Something's definitely up, but it's not income. And it's sure not the economy.📉💥

Ukrainians truly need this right now — even if as a sign of solidarity. And constant, stubborn solidarity goes a long way.

U.S. wants Ukraine to sign a framework of the deal by next Thursday, threatening to cut intel and weapons.
Cutting weapons? You mean selling them to Europe for European money while blackmailing Ukraine into surrender?
Fantastic partnership.

this is insufficient.
No, Trump's peace plan does NOT include NATO Article 5 guarantees.
Article 5 says an attack on one is an attack on all. This plan says if a "significant, deliberate, and sustained armed attack" occurs, there will be a joint assessment with NATO on a "claimed breach".
I call BS.
