I've been saying for the better part of a year that Trump is on a mission to decriminalize corruption. To make it the legal equivalent of jaywalking.

I warned yesterday that this administration is creating the conditions for radicalization here at home. Hours later, Trump called Somali immigrants “garbage,” and implied even U.S. citizens should “go back.”
ICE “strike teams” are now headed to Minneapolis. This is exactly the danger I wrote about.

America does not have capital punishment for selling or smuggling drugs and none of these people were arrested or tried. There could have been mountains of cocaine in open view on the deck of the boats and it still would have been murder of unarmed civilians.
Rand Paul just posted this letter from the Coast Guard confirming that 1/4 of the boats they stop carry no contraband. The likelihood that Hegseth & Bradley ordered the murder of innocent civilians is very high.

maintain our home in which we provide housing for our handicapped son. You can
imagine the anxiety this has caused us in providing for his and our needs. We now

investment we had NO credit card debt! As elderly senior citizens at the age of 82 and
76 our ability to find additional income is extremely limited. We are now at a point of
looking at our belongings to sell to allow us to stay in our home. The emotional stress
of this has taken a fiscal and mental toll on our ability to function. We felt we planned
well for our retirement years and feel robbed by the actions of this crime.” D.E. DOJ0002356.

Remember in May when Trump gave asylum to 17 family members of the Sinaloa cartel after making a deal with El Chapo’s son? And did you know in 2013, El Chapo bribed Juan Hernandez- who trump just pardoned - in exchange for protection in Honduras? I’m sure it’s all just a coincidence.

If left unchecked, it will lead to more such crimes.
