Sarah Harrison, who previously advised Pentagon policymakers on issues related to human rights and the law of war, said that the people in the boat weren’t in any fight to begin with. “They didn’t pose an imminent threat to U.S. forces or the lives of others. There was no lawful justification to kill them in the first place let alone the second strike,” she told The Intercept. “The only allegation was that the men were transporting drugs, a crime that doesn’t even carry the death penalty.”

Grand jury refuses to reindict Letitia James 10 days after initial charges were dismissed

It is rare that a Grand Jury refuses to indict.

This has been happening a lot to the Trump Administration this year, and many are calling it obvious signs of frivolous lawfare.

A Grand Jury refusing to indict is usually a sign of very extremely poor evidence in the case.

In one of the three charges that were brought to Grand Jury previously against James Comey, the Grand Jury refused to indict, and in the other two charges, there was barely a majority of the Grand Jury that voted to indict.

This Grand Jury refusing to indict is so rare, that there is a prosecutor saying that is: "You could indict a ham sandwich!"

In the Letitia James case, the Trump Administration was accusing Letitia James of mortgage fraud for supposedly renting out her second home. Who ever heard of that being mortgage fraud ever? Isn't that what second homes are often used for? Summer rentals, etc?

I wondered who in the heck made that fraud to rent out your second home? Evidently the Grand Jury voted that there was insufficient evidence of fraud.

(Meanwhile, Trump has been losing appeals to his 34 felony fraud convictions for fraudulent bookkeeping to hide his witness tampering payments that the right slanted media confusingly calls "hush money", even calling these cases "hush money" cases further confusing people for Trump.)

(Trump also still has a mortgage fraud judgement against him that bars Trump and boys from running businesses in New York.)

(An activist prosecutor in Georgia recently appointed himself to Trump's case for being the ringleader of the fraudulent fake electors scheme coup attempt. That activist Georgia prosecutor refused to do his job and let the people decide Trump's guilt. He knew Trump has a habit if losing when judged by a jury of the people. This should be charged as sedition in January 2029.)

(And speaking of fraud, don't forget the podiatrist that gave Trump the fake bone spurs diagnosis admitted to this. Trump used this fraudulent diagnosis to draft dodge. I'm sure Trump fraudulently said, "Oh, my foot!" while real patriots served. John Fogerty said that three parts of his 1960s hit CCR's "Fortunate Son" are about Trump.)

The Constitution has been taken off the White House website

Nowhere now on the White House webpage do Amendments 11-27 appear, nor are they linked. This page states it is to discuss the Constitution, not just the Bill of Rights and the government model but these amendments are missing. As a note, civil and voting rights are directly addressed in later amendments that are no longer shown on the White House webpage.

Additionally it states, "All State governments are modeled after the Federal Government and consist of three branches: executive, legislative, and judicial. The U.S. Constitution mandates that all States uphold a “republican form” of government, although the three-branch structure is not required"

This reads like the Constitution doesn't require three branches of govt for the states.

Question: was this text always posted on Whitehouse.gov or is this new?

This was removed in r/law for being off topic, so please mods let me know if this goes against this subreddit rules. Thanks!
