I mean, it's important to have a country where people have the incentive and the feeling they should try to work together and make this all work out, not the opposite.

Yeah.

Pretty obvious war crime that seems to have been committed, if the Washington Post reporting is to be believed, and no one's really challenged it seriously.

Blowing up all these boats is probably a war crime or lawless, certainly, as even Andrew McCarthy of National Review says, but ordering a second strike to kill the two survivors, which seems to have happened.

is literally the definition of a war crime.

It is the definition of a war crime in the Defense Department manual.

Killing people in a shipwreck is sort of the quintessential thing you can't do, even if the original thing were lawful, which it probably wasn't.

So terrible that we did it.

Yeah, absolutely.

And then, of course, we have the normal financial crimes, money crimes, the grifting.

I mean, it's so out of control.

It's so massive.

It's so many different people are now involved in so many different fronts.

Some of it's now mixed up, maybe always was, but a little more obviously mixed up in key foreign policy decisions.

It's not just that they're getting rich, which they shouldn't because it's against the law to do what they're doing, but also they're getting rich at the expense of our national interest of doing their duty as public servants, beginning with the president and all the way down.

But the amount of it is really astounding.

So that's upsetting.

Then, of course, there's the Epstein thing.

We'll see if they continue to try to cover up those sex crimes.
