Yes, no elected US official will do anything right now. Is there a statute of limitations for murder? For war crimes? I know we’re exhausted from all of the other criminal malfeasance, but we have to stay outraged so that at some point we can push for action on this criminality. Trump will die. Hegseth and Rubio are much younger. It’s not okay.
