Tiny native yellow violets up here on the Oregon coast. These are called redwood violets, the purple ones here are introduced. They only grow in deep shade, where the ground cover is more moss than grass.
Just assuming the epic fury at Biden for the tragic American deaths withdrawing from a war will not be matched for starting one.
Raskin: "I want the whole country to look at this. This is the attorney general of the US whose job is law enforcement. We've never had a witness who has misunderstood our rules and been unable to conform his or her conduct to our rules before. Excuse me."
Plum buds and blossoms
Spring up here on the Oregon coast. My plum tree is blooming.
They are trying to create an excuse to invoke insurrection act.
I don't know what to do about the crisis actors, but...

TRUMP: “We need Greenland”
The guardrails are gone
I've heard from many Trump cultists today, and—I can't emphasize this enough—*100% of them* appear to have turned off their TVs after learning Maduro was in custody without hearing Trump say he'd also taken control of Venezuela contrary to a decade of America First foreign policy
Until we flip congress, Trump will keep right on doing what he's doing.
So watching people who supposedly don't like what trump is doing attack Democrats is quite revealing.
If they really wanted Trump to stop what he's doing, they wouldn't spend so much time attacking the only other viable party.
For all that the media has spent years freaking out about what social media does to our brains, I don’t understand why there appears to be little effort to grapple with the fact that these chatbots are, for some not insignificant portion of the population, literally psychosis machines
it's darkly humorous to listen to Trump and his cronies reference the fact that Maduro was indicted in SDNY as evidence he's a dictator and overall bad guy
Zelensky on Venezuela:
“About Venezuela? How should I respond to that? Well, what can I say? If… If it is possible to act with dictators like this, it means the United States knows what to do next. Thank you”
Omg I love it.
The worst part in all this is based on their track record the Trump administration will botch any trial against Maduro due to shoddy, Trumped up evidence or incompetent lawyering.
the reason Maria Machado isn't overjoyed at Maduro's kidnapping is that her goal is the reinstatement of democracy in her country. she wants to live without fear in a free Venezuela.
this ain't it.
In the Maduro capture operation, the Trump administration relies on Bill Barr’s (discredited) 1989 memo claiming a President can disregard the UN Charter (CNN report).
That is a loaded gun. The legal analysis is utterly flawed.
My assessment just published:

they're trying to sanitize it, but all the lipstick in the world won't make this pig pretty. Trent Lott was a student leader when James Meridith was forcibly admitted to the student body by the federales. it's racists, not turtles, all the way down in Mississippi.

If you got $1 million, you can pretty much commit any crime you want and Trump will pardon you. I would recommend Pam Bondi’s brother for representation. He seems to get the best results, for some reason.
