ephemera

delgrosso:

Lowering the Bar summarizes:

• The government dropped a bomb on a U.S. citizen,
• who, though a total dick and probably a criminal, may have been engaged only in propaganda,
• which, though despicable, is generally protected by the First Amendment;
• it did so without a trial or even an indictment (that we know of),
• based at least in part on evidence it says it has but won’t show anyone,
• and on a legal argument it has apparently made but won’t show anyone,
• and the very existence of which it will not confirm or deny;
• although don’t worry, because the C.I.A. would never kill an American without having somebody do a memo first;
• and this is the “most transparent administration ever”;
• currently run by a Nobel Peace Prize winner.

Merry Christmas!

You skipped the part where said Nobel Peace Prize winner also ordered the death of that U.S. citizen’s son, a sixteen-year-old boy.
