To prove that the boat US military forces illegally blew up off Venezuela was crewed by 11 drug traffickers (who were all killed), will the Trump regime provide the quality of evidence the IDF does when it bombs another hospital or cluster of journalists in Gaza?

How to record ICE: 1) Record from a safe distance. DO NOT INTERVENE. 2) Put the DATE, TIME, & LOCATION on the video. 3) Ask for NAMES & BIRTHDAYS 4) CONTEXT, how many people were taken? What happened? How? 5) If possible, document vehicles used and agents, even if masked. @eltragon.bsky.social

If this orange thing was elected & the takeover was legitimate, then why not just follow the Constitution? They have all branches of government. BECAUSE THEY KNOW THIS IS A COUP & ILLEGITIMATE. They had to rapidly demolish any systems that could prove their TREASON or expose them. It’s that simple.

How do any lawyers or legal commentators still say the Supreme Court majority believes “unity executive theory” and rules according to that interpretation? You witnessed years of the same Justices restricting a president only to do the opposite when the White House changed hands. Why help the lie?

The legality of the US strike on a drug smuggling boat in the Caribbean is simple: it was illegal. There is no lawful basis for extrajudicial assassination of people. Suspicion that they're committing crimes is not a valid basis. It's murder.
