More Trump murders, work permits don’t permit working, crooks impersonate cops impersonating crooks…

American military keeps killing sailors in illegal strikes against alleged drug boats

Excerpt: One was a fisherman struggling to eke out a living on $100 a month. Another was a career criminal. A third was a former military cadet. And a fourth was a down-on-his-luck bus driver.

Me again: And of course, even if they were all high-level criminals, killing them remains illegal under any and all laws.

To further obscure records, DHS no longer automatically stores officials’ text messages

Instead, officials are supposed to take a screenshot, send it to their work email, download it onto their work computer, and run a text-recognition program on it — every time.

Me, looking grumpy, reading the news

Jury acquits DC Sandwich Hero charged with chucking a sub at a federal agent

This is a tiny victory, but worth a smile. Sean Dunn chucked a freshly-made sandwich at buttercup/Border Patrol officer Greg Lairmore. No damage, no injuries, but Trump’s toady in DC, Jeanine Pirro, tried to prosecute Dunn for a felony. That’s the mindset of these bastards. The grand jury said no, so she prosecuted it as a misdemeanor, and now the jury has said nope.

Excerpt: Lairmore had testified that the sandwich “exploded all over” his chest and claimed he could smell mustard and onions. But a photo showed that the sandwich was still in its wrapper on the ground after it hit Lairmore in his bulletproof vest.

That’s the way it is,
