Thank you

I just found out the following.

Even though Hedseth, the US s committing open murder in international water they will probably all get away with it.

The Bush administration was broadly hostile to the ICC, primarily due to concerns that U.S. military personnel and officials could be subjected to politically motivated prosecutions without the U.S. government's consent, which they viewed as a threat to national sovereignty -While the Clinton administration had signed the Rome Statute in 2000, it did not submit it to the Senate for ratification.

In a formal, unprecedented move in May 2002, the Bush administration notified the United Nations that the U.S. did not intend to ratify the treaty, effectively "unsigning" it.

-Bush planning on committing war crimes in Iraq and not wanting to be held accountable(my opinion).

These horrible people have rigged everything.

trump can pardon hedseth, himself……

It’s too much

If Trump needs no trial to execute people in the Carribean, the American people don't need a trial to execute a man named hundreds of times in the Epstein files.

Great debate but....

Ease off on the UK/Northern Ireland thing

As a brit I'm proud of the progress we made on the conflict

In the 1800s our (english) attitude towards the Irish was in every way deplorable and not dissimilar to the present day actions of Israel against the Palestinians, but we never launched missile and drone attacks against Belfast (I know we didn't have drones back then)

We sought peace through diplomacy and thankfully the peace has held for decades now

I visited Ireland recently, and can confirm that they still hate the english, and rightfully so

But I think being served last at the bar is a small price to pay, and preferable to the generations long hatred that the Palestinian people may feel towards the Israelis who murdered their families

But having said that, the Palestinian people have been shown to be more resilient, kind, and forgiving than most, and so I am optimistic that Jews may still get served in a Palestinian bar

The six former veterans and CIA operatives, now sitting in Congress warned us of obeying illegal orders, yet the odious, aging, mentally declining Trump threatened them with the gallows noose. But, they were right. And war secretary Pete Hegseth proved them right by commanding the bombing of survivors of a drug boat, thereby condoning murder [Trump. left him holding the bag as the coward he is, non the C-in-C he constitutionally is!] We quote longly the judgment of former superior court judge, J. Michael Luttig: 'In these times of moral inversion in America that are trying men’s souls, we are being told by our political class and taught by their example that the timeless virtues and their opposite vices that have defined humanity throughout all of civilization no longer exist, that these virtues and these vices are indistinguishable one from the other. We are even being told and taught by our political leaders that the virtues are actually virtues and virtues vices. We must never believe what we are being told. We must not believe these charlatans who would deceive us for their cynical political, immoral, and godless purposes. Isaiah 5:20 warns of the last days, when man will confuse right and wrong, good and evil. 'Woe unto them that call evil good, and good evil; that put darkness for light, and light for darkness; that put bitter for sweet, and sweet for bitter'. Now, before it is too late, we must ponder these virtues anew and remind each other of these virtues. We must remind each other of the differences between these virtues that have been cast aside and these vices that have been embraced in their stead. We must tell those who come after us of these virtues that have been cast aside in favor of vice. We must repeat these virtues over and over to each other, and we must explain their imperative to others, so that we will never cease to aspire to be virtuous and never cease to eschew unvirtuousness. Now more than ever before, this is our responsibility to mankind: To once again celebrate the virtuous and condemn the unvirtuous. For to strive to be virtuous is to be human, whereas to strive to be unvirtuous is to be inhuman. The virtues and the vices that have distinguished the virtuous from the unvirtuous since before the beginning of time still exist today, regardless of what we are being told. These virtues and their vices will exist tomorrow, the next day, and the next, and until the end of time. They will forever be distinguishable each from the other — and forever distinguished one from the other — both by mankind and by God'.

A bit of good news, for a change! Jamaica, yes, Jamaica where it never snows, Jamaica’s bobsled team has won gold in the North American cup. The three men team fulfilled the promise of the 1988 Olympic team who inspired the movie 'Cool Runnings'. Raggae singer Jimmy Cliff who died yea these many days at 81 s 'I can see clearly' hit high on the charts, was woven through the film, remaining a classic. Jamaica has its on on the winter games in the French Alps in 2030. [Training is in the US and Canada.]

Like the bottle Aladdin found on the seashore, once opened the genie couldn't be put safely back. Such is Netflix's documentary 'The Stringer' [freelance photographer or journalist] looks with open eyes to an injustice made to Nghe who took the 'Napalm Girl', more than a half-century ago, minuted investigated by Carl Knight and Bao Nugyen, corroborated by a small platoon of commentators, to challenge fabrication of this sad saga that AP[Associated Press] bought Mr. Nghe's snapshot for $20 US dollars, the going rate, then attributed it knowingly to its own photographer Nicolas Ut who went on in 1973 to win the top three journalistic awards and worldwide fame. Knight doggedly, like Francis Thompson's 'Hound of Heaven' gnawed at this bone until the truth be told, and Mr. Nghe's received his long denied acknowledged recognition. Bao's tightly narrated documentary is a testament to the journalist's craft. It deserved the applause it received at the Sundance Film Festival. And should ive heart to stringers that their labor in history's fields doesn't go unrewarded.

30%: The Magic Cutoff

Cheeto's 36-38% overall approval polling numbers are now skating on pretty thin ice Numbers like this approach the magic point of no return for political operatives, below which a president never recovers

Soooo if Cheeto and his Nazi regime post overall approval at 30 or lower the party and Cheeto specifically will not be able to make a comeback no matter what they do to cajole the electorate to vote for them Cheeto's absurd inane tariff. Immigrant, gun, military, and pardon policies along with his kiss ass billionaire approach prompt even lower numbers pushing him toward the magic 30

But the most important number in this 30 regard is the approval of the current Republican/Nazi Congress is 26% which bodes well for a landslide in the 2026 midterms Watch Tennessee 7th district special election
