Pete Hegseth is openly saying we’re going to do war crimes.

His removal is not enough. Passing laws to prevent stuff like this administration from happening again is not enough.

He has to be held accountable. Made an example of.

β€œEvery gun that is made, every warship launched, every rocket fired signifies, in the final sense, a theft from those who hunger and are not fed, those who are cold and are not clothed...This is not a way of life...it is humanity hanging from a cross of iron.”

The Most Chilling Detail in the U.S. Attack on an Iranian Naval Ship The Iranian warship was taking part in an international exercise with many other countriesβ€”including the United States.

This is a chilling crime. A shame on our country. The Iranian ship was unarmed. The US knew this. The sailors were murdered by our navy, and the survivors were left to die at sea.

South Korea uneasy as US weighs moving air defences to Middle East Fears are growing in Seoul that shifting US Patriot and THAAD missiles to fight Iran could leave it vulnerable to North Korea.

"We aren't following any stupid rules of engagement." Hegseth orders a submarine to sink an unarmed Iranian naval vessel in the Indian Ocean to participate in India's peace exercises. A war crime? Well, the US tried, convicted and imprisoned German naval officers for doing roughly the same thing.

Minnesota U.S. Attorney acknowledges β€˜mistakes that have been made’ in unfulfilled immigration court orders For the second time this week, Daniel Rosen was ordered to appear in court for a contempt hearing.

It's been so common for ICE to not return personal items of folks they abducted and detained that I believe there is either some sort of memo or expectation shared among agents to purposely discard or steal from people detained.

Why is the Minneapolis Affordable Housing Trust fund, that all residents pay for, only available to developers and not to residents especially in emergency? Also think about who would crash out if we even suggested we all had access to a fund we pay for.

Time to End the American-Israeli Alliance Alliances are built on shared interests. Those do not exist here.

Israel collects tens of billions in American subsidies, treats the trillion-dollar American military as its personal plaything, and contemptuously ignores U.N. resolutions to halt annexations of Palestinian land. In return, America gets its international reputation tarnished.
