This is how many on the far left feel about him - many loathed him even more than the right did. I suppose her mistake was saying it in print, but she might as well have just owned up to it and told why she felt that way rather than go all "fake news."

She could have just chosen better words once again.  Separating children from parents is a wrong policy no matter who is doing it. She is not wrong about that as far as I can see.

 

Using drones to kill terrorists when many innocent die too is a moral conundrum.  There is nothing wrong with bringing it up, although I wonder what she thinks the alternative is? Fewer by far have died from drones than the bombing we've done. Are we supposed to just let terrorist train unimpeded? No thanks. Nevertheless, she is free to make her case, but when she uses the word murder in a way that the right will pounce on, I'm not listening with an open mind the way I might otherwise.

So much for our humanitarian effort in Venezuela. Can we finally just admit we don't care about sovereignty unless it's us.  What a disaster. And I am sure this surprises no one.

Reading up on the air disasters involving Boeing's 737 Max airliners-- 2 in the past few months, including the crash in Ethiopia yesterday.

Interesting to note that Boeing's stock has tripled since Trump got elected in 2016 and pretty much became the highest priced stock.  I wonder if there is a connection?
