I think Leticia fits your description and I admit to not feeling sympathetic to her. I think her lawsuit against trump was purely political and wrong.

From what we know comey didn’t authorize or even request the leaking of his memos.

I think weaponization of the legal system is wrong regardless of who does it though.


the only way for it to stop is when the right call out the right or the left call out the left for doing it. people claiming the other side as evil then expecting them to be better is insane.

2 survivors taken alive from the 6th US strike on 'alleged drug boats' in the Caribbean, which means the they can be identified, their stories verified and/or prosecuted, which could vindicate the operations or turn them into a shitstorm if the guys were innocent. Or just muddy it, if its a muddy picture.

The drug boat bombing has been pretty weird since the begining. Perhaps I lack details, but typically vessels in international waters are not immediately bombed, but hailed, boarded, and inspected before action taken. Unless obvious combatant ship.

Wonder how much $ been wasted versus intercepting them close to US shore.

Comey is one of those who weaponized it, now it blows up in his face and you expect me to care. No


pendulum swinging the other way like a wrecking ball?

The comey and James indictments look bogus as can be, but this one seems to have actual substance from what it looks like.


comey is a liar. he lied to congress. he lied and backed up the russian dossier (among other things). he said "no fuzz on it" basically claiming russian dossier was purity.
he is 100% part of the russia hoax. just another liar with TDS

It's crystal clear, okay? "The Russians interfered in our election during the 2016 cycle," Comey said. Ain't no fuzz on it. No fuzz at all.

I think people misunderstood this. Russia clearly tried to use misinformation to influence the election greatly preferring Donald trump to win. But that interference didn’t mean Russia and the trump team collaborated or “colluded”.

The message... "We will kill you without due process outside of the U.S. because you might have drugs."

History? They have already blown up boats they claim had drugs, but there is nothing left to actually investigate.

Yes that's the message.


Which is basically illegal. Much smarter law professors have already said so.

Under Article 2(4) of the UN charter, countries can resort to force when under attack and deploying their military in self-defence.

Tell me how it is self defense to blow up "alleged" drug boats without providing evidence. If there is evidence, they should prove it. Where is the evidence?

Quote
After the first strike, Prof Michael Becker of Trinity College Dublin told BBC Verify that the American action "stretches the meaning of the term beyond its breaking point".

"The fact that US officials describe the individuals killed by the US strike as narco-terrorists does not transform them into lawful military targets," Prof Becker said. "The US is not engaged in an armed conflict with Venezuela or the Tren de Aragua criminal organisation."

Prof Moffett added: "Labelling everyone a terrorist does not make them a lawful target and enables states to side-step international law."
