These sailors are being put through this for a war that is unauthorized by Congress and for which funds haven’t been appropriated by Congress, a war that is now utterly pointless and which Trump simply doesn’t have the courage to end. Disgraceful. www.theguardian.com/us-news/2026...

Wondering if states can go after a president for fraud and human trafficking because they're not bound by SCOTUS's "immunity for federal crimes" evidentiary bullshit?
