This is the kicker: ‘Paolo Zampolli, an Italian former modeling agent turned presidential special envoy, had asked ICE to detain Ungaro, his ex-girlfriend, amid an ongoing custody battle over their child’

And it might have escaped everyone’s attention except Melania Streisanded the f out of it

    When the DNC inevitably once again fails to do anything meaningful to stop or even mitigate the rise of fascism, you can blame me.

    It's my flippantly pessimistic comments that singlehandedly stymied the DNC and it has nothing to do with them being a party almost totally captured by the donations of the rich and motivations of lobbyists.

    1.) You can't pardon crimes related to your own crimes. They can and will be reversed by the next admin.

    2.) If they accept said pardons, the states that will be jumping in these traitor's asses with both feet will have open & shut cases against them.

    Ah yes the mythical anti war DNC

    It only shows up briefly whenever the RNC is in charge and never seems that effective at doing anything other than make noise and beg for donations. Then it dies the very second enough battleground states go blue.

    What a fascinating beast!

    Murder?

    Maybe the US has a different legal definition for it, but I understand manslaughter and murder to be two different things with the highest manslaughter charges usually being as severe as those of murder.

    The definition of manslaughter differs among legal jurisdictions, however is generally differentiated from murder based on the state of mind of the defendant, with the level of culpability for manslaughter decided on the presence or lack of reasonableness and negligence in their actions.

    Loosely, it looks more at intent. Could be the same recklessness and negligence that causes death, but causing death was something ignored rather than intended.

    The article gave me chills. The way they described children being brutalized because, Israel, brazen with the total lack of consequences and historical self awareness, calls them animals, is devastating. I'm glad journalists are finally getting called out for their cowardice alongside Europe, who learned nothing from their delayed reaction in WWII. What's the point of becoming a journalist if you let the fear of losing job security control you? They clearly chose the wrong line of work.
