A DOD "Memo" saying no prosecution will happen isn't going to save you from life in a military prison for murdering civilian fisherman. Taking orders from a Fox News host who ordered you to do it isn't going to look real good to a jury.

I love the "return home after this Congress" language. As if it's 1825 and he's not seen his humble farm since he rode off on horseback to serve in the nation's distant capital. Cue plaintive fiddle music.

How low we have sunk as a country. The US Department of Defense is now run by a rabid war criminal.
Ordering the execution of helpless survivors of an attack is ALWAYS a war crime, whether they civilian or military.
Pure, mindless, barbarism.

Creating a military conflict with Venezuela gives this administration a legal "hook" to invoke the Alien Enemies Act. In other words, the foreign war is being manufactured in order to facilitate court deference for its domestic mass deportation policy. It's a Stephen Miller Special.

New from me: I talked to CDC staffers about the new vaccines and autism page. They said things like:

“I think people are starting to see that we can’t fulfill our mission here.”
