Via @theUCMJattorney: A U.S. President just threatened to wipe out an entire civilization. Under the law of armed conflict, that’s not just rhetoric, it’s a war crime.

John Nelson Darby's 1833 misinterpretation

The "Rapture" is not biblical. Trump is not a vessel - he is a cesspool.

Pentagon puts troops on standby for possible Minneapolis deployment YouTube video by MS NOW

So the Pentagon has put 1,500 active duty troops on standby to go into Minnesota. Gov. Walz has his National Guard on stand by. If the Convicted FElon issues a Insurrection Act it will be a mess if active duty & national guard go against each other.

There’s a Key Reason Why Trump Hasn’t Invoked the Insurrection Act Yet The president’s position is an extraordinary threat to free speech and state sovereignty.

@mjsdc.bsky.social 's Insurrection Act explainer is terrific, @militarylawtaskforce.okpeace.org.ap.brid.gy and @donotturnonus.bsky.social

U.S. Attacked Boat With Aircraft That Looked Like a Civilian Plane

Breaking NYT:

The Pentagon used a secret aircraft painted to look like a civilian plane in its first boat attack, according to officials briefed on the matter.

The laws of armed conflict forbid combatants from feigning civilian status.

That is a war crime called "perfidy."

The Trump regime wants us to be scared, to stay at home, to be silent.

This is the moment for courage.

Trump Will Try to Defend Aggression Toward Venezuela. It’s Still Illegal. Forcible regime change and US occupation of Venezuela are also unlawful under the UN Charter.

Rank and benefits aren't gifts from politicians; they are earned through sacrifice. Hegseth's move to demote @captmarkkelly.bsky.social is a clear act of political retribution to send a message to every retired service member: Fall in line, or we’ll come for your pension.

Defending Democracy - Upholding the Rule of Law - Pete YouTube video by The Chamberlain Network

Five years ago, a mob tried to stop the peaceful transfer of power. Violence was used to try to overturn an election.

Today, some want to erase the consequences.

Chamberlain Network members have spoken loudly on why accountability for attacks on democracy matters.

It’s not about drugs. If it was, Trump wouldn’t have pardoned one of the largest narco traffickers in the world last month.

It’s about oil and regime change.

And they need a trial now to pretend that it isn’t. Especially to distract from his sinking under Epstein and skyrocketing healthcare costs.

Emergency Webinar: Illegal Orders Under US Military Law - by Attorney James M. Branum YouTube video by MLTF - Military Law Task Force of the NLG

If only Delta Force had watched @militarylawtaskforce.okpeace.org.ap.brid.gy explain how they're now liable youtube.com/watch?v=Fm26YhWRdXw&feature=youtu.be

Whatever happens now, we absolutely cannot allow Trump's refusal to seek Congressional authorization for what appears to be a large scale military attack on another country vanish from the media discussion, which already appears to be happening.

Even if Trump’s attack on Venezuela and kidnapping of Maduro somehow led to a positive impact on Venezuela’s future, it would not make these actions by the United States legal, moral or wise.

Normalising and legitimising this behaviour endangers all countries - democracies and dictatorships alike.

Wow, SCOTUS actually blocked the Convicted FElon from using the National Guard as a police force in Chicago. They should have made it universal.

Some good news, and from SCOTUS no less.

We are pleased the court agreed with us: deploying National Guard troops in this manner is unwarranted and damaging to our military. Maintaining the clear line between domestic policing and military service is essential for our institutional integrity.

Trump Administration Live Updates: Supreme Court Refuses to Allow National Guard Deployment in Chicago

"The justices are likely to immediately block similar deployments in other American cities... a rare departure from recent cases in which the conservative majority has overwhelmingly sided with Mr. Trump in preliminary tests of presidential power."

An order to turn on civilians is an illegal order.

"A general order or regulation is lawful unless it is contrary to the Constitution, the laws of the United States, or lawful superior orders.”
