More: O'Donnell tore into the comment and what he thought it implied:

"No wartime president of the United States has ever said, As soon as I want the war to end, it will end.' And so what Donald Trump told American voters last night is, I don't want the war to end. I don't want the war to end today. I don't want the war to end tomorrow. I don't want the war to end next week.' Donald Trump is saying, It's my war, and it will end whenever I want it to end. And because I'm not out there fighting it myself, I do not want it to end.'"

This really isn't anything new. We were doing the same thing in the late 90s when I was still in the Marine Corps. I had a buddy who was in a river assault boat unit that got sent to South America a few different times.

Watley never stood a chance against Cooper. Cooper was an excellent Governor and is extremely popular here. Watley is one of those yankee transplants Boaz loves to scream about.

Trump was in Alaska doing a rally with Sullivan two days ago. I don't buy what this article is selling.

Also, I don't think it's officially dead.

It's just going to likely take more than a single election.

Going to take a generation or two.

More: "She has been a wonderful asset to the team, and we wish her well," Zacharia said of Guilfoyle, whose status has come under an avalanche of scrutiny following multiple critical articles about her conduct before and after becoming an ambassador.

More: Donald Trump has shrugged off overwhelming evidence that his dictator pals are helping out the very country he's been at war with for the past seven and a half months.

"I see so many comments from the Radical Left Morons and Lunatics that China and Russia are helping the wonderful' Islamic Republic of Iran," the president wrote in a late-night Truth Social post on Monday.

"If they are, it's at a very low level, but I don't believe they are at all," he went on. "They have too much to lose, and we would know about it, and know about it very fast!"

"You know why I'm furious right now? I was hearing from everybody on plaintiffs' side that this was going to happen and I said repeatedly, no, I trust the government," Judge Ana Reyes told the DOJ. "I trusted you all not to do precisely what you have done."

Reyes imposed a temporary pause on the Justice Department's tree removal at the golf course until Tuesday morning, demanding to know who ordered the weekend removal and how long government attorneys knew of the plan. She said that if her current order is violated by "even two seconds" that there will be contempt proceedings, and flatly rejected the administration's claims they had done all they could.

"Do you have email accounts? Do you have cell phones? Do you have regular phones? Do you have the ability to get into a car and go to where plaintiffs are and tell them?" she asked of their efforts.

"You did not do your best. You did your absolute worst."

This twitter thread gives an excellent play-by-play of the judge's reactions to the Trump administration's lies.

This is what we've sunk to here in "The Land of the Free." Public executions for sport.

The America we grew up in is gone and will never return. We live in its festering corpse now.

It's an unlocked gift article.

More: If Democrats make big gains in the midterm elections in four weeks, it may not only be because their most loyal voters come out in force, or because their candidates have converted Republican voters to their cause.

Instead, the Democrats' dream blue wave could come from Republicans who sour on President Trump and stay home. It already has a name: the red undertow.

Across the country, signs are emerging of an enthusiasm gap between Democrats and Republicans, even among those who consider themselves likely to vote. A stretch of rural southwest Michigan " long a Republican stronghold " illustrates the point, with more signs for blueberries and eggs than for political candidates. Volunteers are not showing up to door-knock. And many voters say they are tuning this election out.

More: The Department of Transportation is aiming to water down longstanding passenger protections, pushing, for example, to change how prominently airlines display prices in advertising and to clamp down on compensation for disrupted flights.

These recent steps have alarmed consumer groups and elected officials, with some saying that the proposals tilt the scales in favor of the airline industry. In addition, they say, the department is steadily taking a more hands-off approach to policing airlines, and that could end up hurting passengers.

More: In late March, at the height of the Iran war, Israel quietly approved more settlements in the Israeli-occupied West Bank than it ever had at one time.

Staff members at the United States Embassy in Jerusalem saw the move as potentially flouting one of President Trump's explicit red lines for Israel " no annexation of the West Bank " and drafted an urgent report intended for policy makers in Washington.

That memo never reached Washington. It was quashed by David Milstein, a top aide to Ambassador Mike Huckabee, according to three U.S. officials briefed on the process.

This was no isolated incident.

Since taking up his post in April 2025, Mr. Milstein, 36, has repeatedly suppressed or significantly revised embassy reporting on Israeli activities to present the Netanyahu government in a favorable light, according to a dozen people who work with or interact with Mr. Milstein in both Jerusalem and Washington:

As settler violence in the West Bank surged in the spring, for instance, he stymied embassy reporting suggesting that the Israeli government was failing to take action, according to the three officials. Instead the embassy sent a cable to Washington, viewed by The New York Times, praising Israel for "cracking down" on the attacks.

When members of Congress pushed for accountability over the killings of nine Palestinian Americans by Israeli settlers and security forces, he suppressed a detailed report that the embassy staff had written, effectively stonewalling lawmakers' efforts to gain information, according to multiple officials briefed on the matter.

Soon after arriving in Jerusalem, Mr. Milstein began insisting on approving communications from the embassy section that handles Palestinian affairs, multiple officials with direct knowledge of the process said. The flow of cables plummeted from several a week to a few a month, as some staffers refrained from writing reports for fear that Mr. Milstein would block or rewrite them, these officials said.

Mr. Milstein's interventions go far beyond those of any recent predecessor, several officials said. They and others said they were speaking out of concern that officials in Washington were getting a distorted view of Israeli actions through core diplomatic channels.

Mr. Milstein's efforts have helped insulate Israel's right-wing government against potential blowback from a Trump Administration that has been its closest ally.

More: A former prosecutor forced off a high-profile murder case for peeking at the defense team's strategy documents.

A onetime gambling executive who promoted conspiracy theories about the Las Vegas massacre in 2017.

A Florida activist who once served 20 days in jail for hacking a local elections system.

They are among the 130 lawyers who have recently joined the Justice Department's short-staffed civil rights division as the Trump administration has struggled to fill the depleted ranks of a unit that was once a magnet for legal talent. Since early 2025, upward of 300 nonpolitical career employees, representing decades of experience, have left the division after its leader, Harmeet Dhillon, repurposed it to pursue President Trump's agenda.

As a consequence, the division has opened its doors to recruits, many of them conservatives, some with education and work histories that might have disqualified them from being hired in the past, former officials said. Some have left a trail of hyperpartisan, conspiratorial and, in some instances, bizarre statements, according to an examination of about a dozen recent hires based on court records, social media posts and interviews.

Jim Bakker, too. Hell's getting crowded

I grew up in Charlotte, very near the epicenter of the PTL cult. Jim and Tammy Faye were unavoidable. Their downfall was a gift to us punk rock kids. Now he's dead, even better.

Why should anyone believe a word Florida cops say?

Attorneys representing Tennessee death row inmates previously alleged that the state appeared to have obtained pentobarbital through the "gray market," citing manufacturer restrictions that they said prohibited the drug from being sold for use in executions.

The allegation was detailed in an April 10, 2025 request to Gov. Bill Lee seeking a reprieve for death row inmates Oscar Smith and Byron Black while a legal challenge to Tennessee's then-new execution protocol proceeded.

"If the chemicals are manufactured, then it appears nearly certain that TDOC has procured the chemicals from the gray market," Kelley Henry and Amy Harwell of the Federal Public Defender's Capital Habeas Unit wrote in the request.

The attorneys wrote that every manufacturer of pentobarbital had placed distribution controls prohibiting sales of its products to corrections departments for executions. If Tennessee had obtained commercially manufactured pentobarbital, they argued, the drug would therefore have been acquired "outside the approved and tightly controlled commercial stream."

Tennessee officials subsequently claimed that the pentobarbital used in the state's executions was commercially manufactured, Nashville Public Radio reported in December 2025.

The Tennessee Department of Correction has, however, declined to publicly identify its pentobarbital supplier, according to the outlet. State law protects identifying information about people and entities involved in procuring drugs and other supplies used in executions.

The allegations have resurfaced following Tennessee's unsuccessful attempt to execute Pike, 50, on Wednesday, Sept. 30.

Why Good's Family Is Invoking the KKK Act

At the heart of the lawsuit is the Ku Klux Klan Act of 1871, a federal law enacted during Reconstruction to combat organized campaigns of violence and intimidation against newly freed Blacks and their allies.

The act allows civil litigation against conspiracies that deprive people of equal protection under the law, with one provision specifically referencing people who go "in disguise on the highway" to deprive others of equal protection.

The plaintiffs argue the law applies in 2026 because masked federal agents allegedly carried out discriminatory enforcement actions and because Good's killing furthered an effort to intimidate observers and targeted communities.

"Congress enacted [the law] to address precisely this scenario: the acts of individuals who ride the public roads with their faces covered, to strip a despised group of the equal protection of the laws, and conspiracies to accomplish the same," the complaint, filed in the U.S. District of Minnesota, read.

Hard to decide which is more pleasing to read about hunting accident deaths or anti-vaxers getting exactly what they deserve.

Said it before and I'll say it again, capital punishment is barbaric. We're made less as a society/nation/people because we allow it to happen.

What decision?

You really should ready things before you comment on them.

"The justices, with the court's three liberals dissenting, granted an emergency request filed by the government seeking to block an appeals court ruling that said the current process is unlawful because the affected people are not given a proper chance to raise concerns about safety risks in violation of federal immigration law.

In the brief unsigned order, the court also said it would hear oral arguments in December and issue a definitive ruling on the legal questions raised in the litigation."

We're not sure if this is legal or not but you can keep sending people to third world hell holes where they will be in extreme personal danger until we get around to making a decision is a ridiculous position for any court to take.

More: Until March 2010, Umar Kremlev did not exist.

Before then, the man who would go on to pay for Donald Trump Jr's post-wedding party in the Bahamas was called Umar Lutfulloev.

At 28 years old, with reported convictions for extortion and battery under his belt, and his hope of building a boxing career extinguished by ill discipline, Lutfulloev wanted to turn over a new leaf and climb the rungs of Russian society.

There was no better surname than Kremlev " "The Kremlin's man".

Without the (racist) whites, Trump had no one.

He'll always have boaz.
