When truth is inconvenient, this administration buries it; along with the innocent people its recklessness kills. Their lies crumble the moment real bodies wash up against their fake storyline.
When leaders bomb first and invent justifications later, they aren’t making “tough calls,” they’re teaching everyone beneath them that cruelty and improvisation are acceptable substitutes for discipline and law.
That’s how institutions corrode: lies become routine, incompetence becomes culture, and human lives are reduced to disposable props in a theater of power.
Alejandro Carranza’s death isn’t an isolated tragedy, it’s the predictable outcome of a leadership style that rewards bravado, punishes restraint, and confuses spectacle with strength.
Trumpism reinstates 18th century law.........therfore letthal injection...firing squad or hanging are sentences aawaiting this cold hearted killler after the trial
Trump officially pardoned former Honduran president Juan Orlando Hernandez yesterday and he was released from federal prison while serving a 45 year sentence for drug trafficking and conspiracy to traffic weapons into the US. He served less than 2 years of his sentence.
Don't you think that keeping Hernandez in prison would have a greater effect on curtailing drug trafficking than murdering fishermen off the coast of South America?
Me too. With all the brave and talented people in the world, why are we stuck with the lunatic fringe? It is always those in power who have never had to go to war that want to start one. Pathetic.
We're stuck with him because the republiCRAPS prefer the Dump (man) rather than having Harris (woman) in the Oval Office. Plus it didn't help that so many people didn't like either one so didn't vote.
As Michael said - “It’s tempting to laugh at the absurdity of it all. But don’t. Because this isn’t a comedy. It’s murder. First-degree. And it’s happening in plain sight.”
So under the guise of waging a “war on drugs” Trump and Hegseth illegally bomb boats in international waters with no proof of drugs or wrongdoing. They simply bypassed the rules of international engagement, the rule of law, and slaughtered everyone without due process. (As a “wag the dog” distraction from seizing Venezuela’s oil…)
Those are actions that are considered illegal in the international criminal court.
And ironically, Trump has now …
“Trump Names Government Building After His Favorite President”
“Trump renames the US Institute of Peace after himself while his administration wrestles for control of the agency”
“Trump has sought to cast himself as a peacemaker on the global stage, though his bid for the Nobel Peace Prize has been unsuccessful”
Apparently it’s challenging for some people to tell the difference between “legal” vs “illegal”. And “peace” vs “war”.
Yep, it’s like a ridiculous opening act of SNL, but it’s really happening right now by an incompetent and corrupt gangs of thugish Keystone Cops masquerading as the defenders of our democracy. Now what?
Exactly. Its always been a tough one to believe as its also something that has always and is still a civil matter. There isnt a way except to lie to say that those boats were a threat to Americans OD'n on Fentanyl. No range to get to america from where they were bombed. Too open to be smuggling. Smuggling means hiding something illegal. The facts dont line up as a matter of fact it shows incompetence or a precursor to - ? Many of who knew this could happen are still shocked as to the amount of wrong going on. America looks real bad to the world now. He is getting is worry about being laughed at.
Your threads are always so informative and well researched. I am a Canadian watching political action in both our countries. I do appreciate your work but unfortunately I am a senior on a small
Pension and cannot stretch my budget to upgrade. Keep up the good work
All this lip service on all these crimes does nothing. When and who is going to arrest and prosecute for murder? And trafficking. And treason for unconstitutional acts. And Nazi behavior of immigrants. And separating children from parents. And tearing down the people’s house with no oversite. When and who?
Unfortunately, the nation's chief law enforcement officer is just fine with all the high-level criming, and thoroughly complicit in a lot of it. Right now, she seems to be using the 30 days that Congress gave her to produce the Epstein files to redact, delete, obfuscate, and destroy any mention of the mob boss she reports to. Is she above tampering with or withholding evidence that we the people are entitled to see?
Accountability is going to have to wait for the next Democratic administration. Pray that we don't get another wimp like Garland.
You have a great talent for cutting through the bs and exposing these wanna be dictator tough guys for what they are. Murderous psychopaths playing their first person shooter games with the Pentagon playstation. Trump’s criminals taylor made for the death penalty.
In Vanessa Williamson’s Power of Taxation in American History(https://bit.ly/44Hswxp) she makes the point that cuts through the myths surrounding taxation and democracy, spotlighting how fiscal choices reveal who a country is actually built to serve Does it serve WE the People or does it serve the wealthy?
What becomes unavoidable is the way taxation functions not as an accounting exercise but as an architecture of democracy—one that is deliberately weakened when authoritarian movements want to keep public institutions too poor to challenge private dominance
The history she interrogates shows that when opponents of democracy fear the public’s voice, they don’t just suppress votes; they drain the revenue that makes self-government real This is at the heart of Project 2025 Render the federal government nonfunctional so that the wealthy class can rule through a dictatorship This has always been the Republican Nazi playbook since Reagan in the 1980’s Get the wealthy to replace the "social safety net" BUT by their rules
One such example is Michael Dell of Dell Computers is making a “donation” to kids of low income families to the tune of $6B (yes that’s with a “B”) to fund what will be called “Trump accounts” Of course this is not out of the generous heart of Dell He’s been cajoled to make a Republican Nazi “business deal” donation for Cheeto so he can make good with his “Trump accounts” or baby accounts(https://bit.ly/4oDh2T1)
It is now clear how the Nazi party wants to implement Project 2025 Create programs that businesses will support but can pull at any time at their own discretion leaving WE the People holding nothing Classic counterparty risk and no accountability

To put it in simple terms, it's pure murder for the most evil reasons.

I posted this on Facebook yesterday:
The War on Drugs:
Trump officially pardoned former Honduran president Juan Orlando Hernandez yesterday and he was released from federal prison while serving a 45 year sentence for drug trafficking and conspiracy to traffic weapons into the US. He served less than 2 years of his sentence.
Don't you think that keeping Hernandez in prison would have a greater effect on curtailing drug trafficking than murdering fishermen off the coast of South America?
Trump said he didn’t know anything about Juan Orlando Hernandez that he pardoned. So tired of this half a brain control freak.
I'll bet Trump remembers the dollar amount in his Pay for a Pardon scheme.
Me too. With all the brave and talented people in the world, why are we stuck with the lunatic fringe? It is always those in power who have never had to go to war that want to start one. Pathetic.
We're stuck with him because the republiCRAPS prefer the Dump (man) rather than having Harris (woman) in the Oval Office. Plus it didn't help that so many people didn't like either one so didn't vote.
According to reporting on MS NOW Roger Stone has something to do with this pardon
I read that too... Stone called in a favor with the so-called prezident. (sic)
Was it Hillary on the autopen, again?
Drugs is a distraction. Felon 47 wants Venezuela oil.
As Michael said - “It’s tempting to laugh at the absurdity of it all. But don’t. Because this isn’t a comedy. It’s murder. First-degree. And it’s happening in plain sight.”

absolutely
That must be right up there with the stupid idea of privatizing prisons.
This explains the pardon. It's worse than you think.

It’s sociopaths all the way down.
Thanks for the link, Concerned Citizen. I just kept shaking my head reading it. Will we survive this depravity?
We will, but is is ugly and depressing right now.
I love your optimism, Susan. Wish I felt the same way. Too scared and worried that we won't even make it to the midterms.......
Yes. But that would be a logical conclusion, something alien to Trump and his regime of narcissistic incompetents.
Wonder how much Donnie charged him for that

LOVE what I’m reading, and I am one of the loud ones! Please keep up your crucial work, Meidias family (and please forgive my spelling!)

As a veteran this is what I see:
The smoking gun is Hegseth changing actual doctrine for pre mission planning.
This happened awhile ago — and was the catalyst for Holsey retiring vs complying.
This is the smoking gun — not anything that happened afterwards — bc it shows premeditated intent and conspiracy before any bombs fell.
In the military there are so many people involved in missions and tons of paperwork and planning — here is no different.

Alive fishermen ruin the narrative worse
Dead men tell no tales.
The very first strike was murder! The others are mass murder and serial killings with terrorist destruction!!!
yes
And, it distracts everyone from Epstein.
agreed
Honestly I don't think an Alien invasion can save this administration. They have not done one good thing for the people of America
yep

Nothing to see here, move along…. Have you noticed that storm troopers never live long in the movies?? We should make that happen here.
Well said Michael. May these be the murders that hang them
Treason/mass murder = Firing squad, lethal injection or hanging
You have impeccable writing skills. Whole sentences, complete thoughts, “using big words”, I love it. Your Dad should be proud. I know I am.
