Trump-occhio!
- The false claim: On social media and during a public statement, Trump announced that the U.S. military had successfully struck an alleged drug boat in the Caribbean. He claimed the boat contained "massive" amounts of drugs, and that the administration had "tapes" of the alleged smugglers speaking.
- The facts: According to reporting from ABC News, the Trump administration offered few other details on the operation, citing security concerns. Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth identified the boat's occupants as suspected members of the Tren de Aragua gang but did not provide specifics on how the strike was carried out. Critics and reporting from news outlets pointed out the murky legal basis and lack of transparency around the details of the strike.

But you CAN do something. Hands Off is a great place to start. Indivisible is another great place. Another great blog is fafo.org. If you want to get to a really adventurous trek, start your own protest! It doesn't matter whether it's five people or 100,000. It doesn't matter if you're from #ChesneeSC, #ClintonSC, #CloverSC, #CopeSC or #CowpensSC in #SouthCarolina - or anywhere in the United States - just do it!!
By the way, the second some jackarse goes for the anti-trans bandwagon, offer your opposition immediately!!! I can't make any promises, but the sooner you're working, the better the chances! Oh,, if no one sticks their toe out, YOU can do it!!!

Out!!!
Oh yeah... draft Malcolm Nance for the House of Representatives!
You should have seen pictures of the boat. It looked more as if they were refugees than drug smugglers, as claimed by Trump. How disgusting, that he feels a need to kill people when a simple intervention would do.
