[UPDATE 8:15 PM: Apparently Mangione’s attorneys are withdrawing the plea, although it’s not at all clear why. So, as Emily Litella would say, “Never mind.”] It’s not as though Mangione’s lawyers have a lot of options. There’s little doubt that … Continue reading →
From Trump: At my direction, the United States Southern Command delivered a swift and lethal kinetic strike to successfully execute Niño Guerrero, the infamous leader of Tren De Aragua, one of the most bloodthirsty Terrorist Organizations on Planet Earth. Before … Continue reading →
