‘We were terrified they were going to kill us’: fishers who survived US boat strike speak out An Ecuadorian fishing crew describe their ordeal as victims of Trump’s purported war on ‘narcoterrorists’

There's no legal basis for these boat strikes, and US officials involved in them should be prosecuted for attempted murder and murder. The OLC memo green-lighting the strikes is still secret, but there's nothing it could say that would make these strikes lawful. www.theguardian.com/global-devel...

CDC won’t publish report showing covid shots cut likelihood of hospital visits The report, which had cleared the agency’s scientific-review process, had been delayed. It now won’t be published at all, people familiar with the decision told The Post.

SCOOP: Two weeks ago, the head of the CDC delayed publication of a report showing covid vaccine cut likelihood of ER visits and hospitalizations by half. Now that report is no longer allowed to be published in CDC’s flagship scientific journal. My latest. 1/2

BREAKING: Dems Remember They Can Play Hardball, Too Virginia voters decide turnabout is fair play—at least for four years.

"Democrats and liberals have likely wrestled Republicans and Trumpists to a draw in the great redistricting war. It’s impressive...Democrats held their own in this contest of political hardball, liberals stepped up and fought back in this bare-knuckle struggle." open.substack.com/pub/thebulwa...

You could offer me footballer wages or any incentive in the world to stop helping dogs and I'd say no.

Nothing in the world beats sitting with Sienna tonight in her new bandana 5 months after she came in totally broken telling her about her new family home.

Priceless feeling

Fascism survives on fear, not stability. It expands “the enemy” so no one feels safe.

www.PAXIS.app reminds us:
Trump said “serious criminals.” Now they target people with no record, longtime residents, asylum seekers, and people with legal status.

FIGHT TRUMP. FIGHT ICE.

As I have been saying for a while this is going to happen and we need to start talking about it and pushing for it. We have to MAKE it happen

If we take the defeatist approach that some Dems take—that he'll just magically disappear, or that we can just wait until Jan. 2029, ... (1/3)

Priceless post from the official White House social media

Trump gutting the U.S. Forest Service puts communities in Arizona and across the country at risk — the Forest Service plays an essential role in preventing wildfires. I supported legislation last year to restore staffing so our forests stay accessible, safe, and maintained.

“We were terrified they were going to kill us.”

Ecuadorian fishermen recount surviving one of Trump & Hegseth’s boat strikes.

Not drug runners. Fishermen. Drone strike. Boat blown up. Taken captive. By us.

"[Impeachment] is how you hold executive officials to account. This is what the Framers gave us to deal with a president who is failing at his job, not just because he's incompetent—which he is, not just because he's crazy—because he is, but because fundamentally he's a criminal who defies the law."

Evil. Donald Trump Is Evil Trump is trying to pressure Afghans who fought alongside us in the war to go back to Afghanistan and live under Taliban rule. If not go back, Trump is threatening to dump them in the middle of a civil war in central Africa. That’s evil. Also…Republicans, quit whining about losing a fight YOU started.

How can the Democrats not like how the U.S. Supreme Court votes. The Democrat Justices stick together like glue, NEVER failing to wander from the warped and perverse policies, ideas, and cases put before them. They ALWAYS vote as a group, or BLOCK, even that new, Low IQ person, that somehow found her way to the bench (Sleepy Joe!). The Republican Justices don’t stick together, they give the Democrats win after win, like a 159 Billion Dollar pile of cash on a completely ridiculous Tariff decision, and nasty, one sided questions on the country destroying subject of Birthright Citizenship, something which virtually NO OTHER COUNTRY IN THE WORLD IS STUPID ENOUGH TO ALLOW. It was meant for the babies of slaves, not for the babies of Chinese Billionaires. No, certain “Republican” Justices have just gone weak, stupid, and bad, completely violating what they “supposedly” stood for. Handing over 159 Billion Dollars in Tariff refunds to people who have been Ripping Off our Country for years, is unexplainable. One little sentence would have stoped this record setting payment from having to be made. It is a travesty! Their Tariff decision was an unnecessary and expensive slap in the face to the U.S.A., and a giant victory for its opponents. If they rule against our Country on Birthright Citizenship, which they probably will, it will be even worse, if that’s possible. It will cost America massive amounts of money but, more importantly, it will cost America its DIGNITY! No, the Radical Left Democrats don’t need to “Pack the Court,” it’s already Packed! President DONALD J. TRUMP

Trump refers to Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson as "that new, Low IQ person"

Comparing Vietnam to Venezuela is horrible.

Donald Trump dodged the draft to fight in Vietnam but he's sure he would've done a better job.

This kind of arrogance is exactly how America keeps getting stuck in long, bloody wars.

We need real leadership and a plan and a goal to end this war in Iran, and he has none of it.

You can have no rage, Republicans, when you lit the fuse.

You just got outplayed

Trump is melting down on Truth Social tonight.

A Letter from Sofia Kinzinger — A Long Time Coming, and Why It Means So Much to Us Now A letter to the people who have walked this road with us.

“We want to sow kindness into Christian’s heart deeply enough that it stays there — even when the world around him doesn’t model it.”

That’s from Sofia’s piece today.

I’ve talked a lot about politics.

This isn’t that.

This is a nightmare.

I watch more news probably than most people here, and I’m surprised how much of it is actually very good. I’m tired of this nihil small business pose that everything sucks. And what news needs is more gatekeeping, not more market signaling from the public.

No argument there. But you can still be a very well informed citizen and voter with minimal effort.

And as always, it’s all because Obama did a thing.

Yup. It's these southern, The South Shall Rise Again, assholes!

So the Southern Poverty Law Center has informants deep inside neo-Nazi organizations reporting on their violent and hateful activities, and Trump’s DOJ is indicting them for that? Are you fucking kidding me?

These people are evil.

The theory of the case -- that the SPLC defrauded donors by promising to "dismantle" hate groups while secretly paying informants inside said hate groups, a tactic that it has carried out for nearly half a century -- is completely absurd.
