Interesting to learn that "affordability" is now a "Woke" word and part of a Democratic hoax.
Also, though, it's no longer the working class and the Uber Rich, but the working class and the Epstein Class.

The statement to which Parnas is referring above (/8) is "Statement of the āFormer JAGs Working Groupā on Media Reports of Pentagon 'No Quarter' Orders in Caribbean Boat Strikes." This document is linked below. It says,
"The bottom line is that, since orders to kill survivors of an attack at sea are
'patently illegal,' anyone who issues or follows such orders can and should be prosecuted for war crimes, murder, or both."
"Trump claims these murderboat operations combat drug trafficking. That was always suspect. Not only are many of the people killed at most low-level shippers, but killing traffickers was less useful than capturing them.
And Trumpās promise to pardon former President of Honduras, Juan Orlando HernĆ”ndez, who was a major drug trafficker, suggests Trump is not so much opposed to drug trafficking, he just wants a cut."

Murder - emptywheel
We don't know why Rahmanullah Lakanwal allegedly targeted two members of West Virginia's National Guard, just like we don't know the real reason Pete Hegseth keeps targeting boats for murder in the Caribbean.emptywheel
"Today, a group of former military lawyers concluded that Pete Hegseth has committed war crimes or murder, and that anyone who assisted in his illegal strikes in the southern Caribbean may also be implicated. At the same time, a Congressional inquiry led by a Republican has opened into Hegseth just as Trump pushes America closer to armed conflict in Venezuela."

NEWS: Group of Military Lawyers Conclude Hegseth Committed War Crimes, Murder, or Both
A group of former military lawyers have concluded, in a new statement, that Hegseth and anyone under him, have committed war crimes, murder, or both.Aaron Parnas (The Parnas Perspective)
"Even if you were to buy into the regimeās claims that they are conducting these killings to root out drug traffickers who cause harm to Americans, Trump utterly belied that argument yesterday by providing a full pardon to former Honduran President Juan Orlando HernĆ”ndez, who has been serving a 45-year prison sentence for drug trafficking."

'Textbook War Crime': Critics Slam Hegseth For 'Outright Murder' After Shock Report
Observers say a new report in the Washington Post details potentially illegal activity by the defense secretary.Ed Mazza (HuffPost)
"As the smoke cleared, they got a jolt: Two survivors were clinging to the smoldering wreck.
The Special Operations commander overseeing the Sept. 2 attack ā the opening salvo in the Trump administrationās war on suspected drug traffickers in the Western Hemisphere ā ordered a second strike to comply with Hegsethās instructions, two people familiar with the matter said. The two men were blown apart in the water."
"The longer the U.S. surveillance aircraft followed the [Venezuelan] boat, the more confident intelligence analysts watching from command centers became that the 11 people on board were ferrying drugs.
Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth gave a spoken directive, according to two people with direct knowledge of the operation. 'The order was to kill everybody,' one of them said."

āThings happenā
#WashingtonPost Editorial Board
Setting the record straight about our murdered colleague.
The #US govt often advances its interests by working with nasty people, & #SaudiArabia Crown Prince #MBS is one of the nastiest. Itās one thingā¦to reluctantly deal with himā¦[but] #Trumpās performance at the White House Tuesday was something else entirely: #weak, #crass & of no strategic benefit to US.
"A lot of people didn't like that gentleman that you're talking about. Whether you like him or didn't like him, things happen, but he [#MBS] knew nothing about it. And we can leave it at that. You don't have to embarrass our guest by asking a question like that,ā #Trump said as if likability excuses #murder.
[Helsinki flashback] #Trump contradicts #US #intelligence, says #MBS 'knew nothing' about #Khashoggi death.
Then in classic Trump fashion, Trump dismisses a reporterās question on the #murder of #journalist #JamalKhashoggi as an attempt to "embarrass" the #SaudiArabia leader, horrifically adding:
šØ "things happen" [umā¦ dismemberment doesnāt just āhappenā] šØ
Trump asked the reporter where she was from, then called her "fake news."
This is MBS's first visit to the US since the 2018 killing of #journalist & Saudi critic #JamalKhashoggi in the kingdom's Istanbul consulate.
#Khashoggi was killed & dismembered in Oct 2018 by Saudi agents in an operation US intelligence believed was ordered by #MBS.
Khashoggi had criticized the crown prince's policies in his #WashingtonPost columns.
He had traveled to the #SaudiArabia consulate to obtain papers to marry his fiancƩe, a Turkish citizen.
#Trump is rolling out the red carpet for Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman [#MBS] Tuesday, with the #SaudiArabia de facto ruler seeking to further rehabilitate his global image after the 2018 killing of US based journalist #JamalKhashoggi & deepen ties with Washington.
#US #AircraftCarrier arrives in the #Caribbean in major buildup near #Venezuela

#Trump has accused boat crews of being *narco-terrorists*. The truth, AP found, is more nuanced
One was a fishermanāÆstruggling to ekeāÆout a living on $100 a month. Another was a career criminal. A third was a fmr military cadet. And a fourth was a down-on-his-luck bus driver.
