Are we killing drug smugglers in boats, then pardoning their bosses?

Is that the new policy/executive order?

It is a very anti-marxist approach though - kill the laborers that created the value for the person bribing for requesting a pardon.
 
I think Pew's News Media Tracker tool is fascinating.

On the one hand, I'm glad he didn't tell us he was declaring war on Venezuela.

Prediction... the next president of a different party will wipe his name off anything federally related. Personally, I am ok with that.

They still need to do something amazing if they want their name on things. Think of how many dead presidents out there do not have their name on things because they didn't do anything amazing. They might have been a good president, but just didn't do anything. Winning the FIFA Peace Prize is not amazing.
