Time to stop writing, & reporting a "possibility". The people need to see charges. Consequences. Done with threatening this without actually doing it. No such latitude for immigrants. Legitimate allowances offering protection asylum seekers, denied

I’m starting to get the sense that it was a bad idea to put a deeply insecure, sexual assaulting Fox News host with a drinking problem and a crusader tattoo who said he was into war crimes in charge of the military.

You're not seeing the defense and international conflict experts disagreeing because if the facts are true, it's one of the most basic things in the law of armed conflict: You cannot kill people who are "hors de combat," taken out of the game by injury or attack. This is Geneva 101 stuff.
I follower a few defense experts.

Seeing them all straight-up declare this a war crime without any him-and-hawing is uhm

Disconcerting.

Pete Hegseth must resign, as does Stephen Miller. Donald Trump should be subpoenaed before Congress to answer for HIS policy.

Honestly, no officer should need advice to decide if "kill these guys flailing around in the water" is a legal order
My understanding is that, at the height of the "drone war on terror" that when the military officer thought the legality of a particular strike was legally dubious, they'd have a CIA guy actually "pull the trigger". I wonder if that is happening in our current "War on Fishing Boats"?

Reminder that all the "pardons" granted to Jan6ers whose convictions were still pending were auto-pen pardons.
Trump claims “any document” signed by Joe Biden is “hereby terminated.”

He calls out executive orders later but obviously “any document” would be much broader and include legislation.

(He can’t legally do that but, as always, we get to watch how far he can push this without repercussions)

"Declaring 'no quarter' is a war crime," argued Brian Finucane, a former State Department lawyer and an editor at Just Security. "Even assuming an armed conflict exists."

"Textbook war crime/extrajudicial killing," agreed Just Security co-editor-in-chief Ryan Goodman.

I really do think Mark Kelly could knock out Hegseth if he hits hard enough

he’s pretty well liked AFAIK, and after the WaPo story it’s now exceptionally easy to explain why Hegseth is targeting him. it’s someone with way more gravitas and credibility saying “don’t sell your soul for these ghouls”

Effectively there is no *one* person performing the duties of President of the United States right now. We are in an interregnum with an occupied throne.
The fundamental thing to understand about this administration is the president is a grumpy retiree. He has no interest in working anymore. Which leads to him being pissed that he is getting asked a question, pissed he has to show up and work, the scheming viziers running the show, etc..

In 2024, people with high racial resentment scores strongly tended to vote for Donald Trump, regardless of their educational attainment; by contrast, people with low racial resentment scores strongly tended to support Kamala Harris, whether they had a college degree or not.

The Trump regime is disappearing people to indefinite detention in third countries they’ve never been to, often giving them no chance to contest their deportation and breaking U.S. and international law.

Cruelty and inhumanity beyond belief.

There hasn't been a big financial crash in a while, let's scrap regulation. After the next big financial crash: why didn't we have effective regulation? And so the pendulum swings, because when regulation works, we regularly forget why we need it.
A “shift to looser regulation is ‘likely to reduce the resilience of the banking sector to systemic market shocks.’”

A key lesson from 2008 was “heavily indebted banks lacked the equity capital to absorb large losses, leaving regulators [to let] banks fail or bail them out to protect depositors.”
This seems like an important story.
