Germany received no warning when the Trump administration paused weapons shipments to Ukraine; Freuding learned only after the decision was already made.

Now, to understand U.S. policy, German diplomats in Washington “try to find somebody in the Pentagon” who will explain what’s going on.

Sen Warren, “This deal lets private equity executives off the hook for getting rich by gutting a nursing home chain and leaving seniors out to dry.

“The real losers are the victims of Genesis who were taken advantage of by private equity vultures and then cheated out of what they’re owed.”

They are war crimes. 85 war crimes at least committed so far. Blatant murder.

if Cuba took out an American fishing boat and then ordered a second strike to kill any survivors from the initial murder attempt, we would be at war with Cuba right now, even if that boat was running drugs.

And it explains why drumpf & Kegsbreath got so upset when they delivered that message. They were WELL AWARE (as were we) that they have been issuing all kinds of illegal orders!

The Admiral should be hung out to dry.

Pete should also hang.

But no service members should be absolved of criminal culpability simply because they were following orders.

It wasn’t that way in Nazi Germany.

It shouldn’t be that way in USA 2025.

Exactly.

The.

Same.

OK, but let's also be crystal clear that every single sailor who failed to refuse those unlawful orders from the Admiral to the seamen are war criminals.

This! I served in the Navy and not machine gunning the lifeboats was kind of a big deal. If a four star ordered the strike, he belongs in jail! Maybe more so than Hegseth. Hegseth’s an alcoholic moron, an admiral should know better.

Imagine what it does to morale that a dude wearing four stars apparently won’t follow the law when confronted with the choice to either obey Hegseth or issue a literal textbook example of an illegal order
