> “Montes was motivated by ideology, not personal gain. She agreed to work for Cuban intelligence in part based on her opposition to the Reagan Administration's activities in Latin America.” I mean, I get it…. Seems reasonable to me.
[ "One of the reasons she was so difficult to detect was that she memorised all of the material she passed to her handlers. During exit inspections she never held classified material and never passed physical documents removed from DIA.

> In particular, a report from the defence department's inspector general found, she is believed to have been angered by US support for the Nicaragua Contras - a right-wing rebel group suspected of committing war crimes and other atrocities in the country. Yeah, it’s a logical conclusion after seeing your empire funding openly evil acts against innocent people. But America can’t tolerate the kind of actions it openly encourages in regimes it hates. Especially when we KNOW it’s for a good reason.

> The only death she's been publicly linked to is a Green Beret who was attacked in El Salvador. Green Berets were in El Salvador to train, and equip the Salvadoran regime's brutal and repressive guerilla soldiers who committed innumerable human rights abuses against ordinary people. We propped up this monstrous dictatorship in order to prevent efforts to redistribute the approximately 80% of arable land that was owned by 0.01% of the population. Around a third of the population effectively served as slave labor on coffee plantations because the owners of the land formed an oligarchy to suppress wages. The US's involvement was absolutely shameful, and resistance against it was righteous. That Green Beret was supporting a regime that was on par with Bashar al Assad's, or Saddam Hussein's and he was contributing to a humanitarian crisis that continues to unfold more than three decades later on the southern border of the US. He was fighting on the side that repressed, tortured, raped, and murdered thousands of innocent women, children, and quite famously priests. Given that, what Montes did wasn't wrong. Assuming she saved a single Salvadoran life, I'd say she's a hero.

> Let’s assume everything you said was correct. I’ll admit, the US has been the bad guy in a lot of conflicts. Is the correct response to bad US foreign policy to actively work to kill the Americans involved? Would you have supported her assassinating the US President involved in making those decisions? The answer to your country’s bad foreign policy isn’t to work to kill those involved. She is at least alittle the bad guy, like I said. Not to mention, you could make the exact same argument against Montes for supporting the brutal Cuban regime.

Shes also vehemently Pro-Putin.

> "Opinions I disagree with are Chinese propaganda. Or maybe Russian. Idk, but it's definitely propaganda from some big baddie, because there's no way someone could possibly disagree with me." I personally don't care if they have the label "American" or not. Plenty of Americans are terrible people, and being American isn't some sort of virtue. For most people, it's nothing more than a birthplace. Judge people by their actions and motivations, not where they're from.

Is it public or private property? I see seasonal decorations all the time along the roads this time of year. I love it. People put garland and baubles on the windbreak trees between the roads and the fields. But those trees belong to whoever owns the fields. They planted them, they can decorate them however they want. Same with roadside memorials for those who passed away. If it’s on private property, and the owner is okay with it, then so be it. Usually there are people who tend to the memorial to make sure it’s not unkempt.

This is the best tl;dr I could make, original reduced by 79%. (I'm a bot) Protesters gathered outside a prison near the Iranian capital on Sunday night in an attempt to prevent the rumoured imminent execution of two young detainees found guilty of running over a police officer in a car during protests in November. The repression, which is seen by the Iranian authorities as an appropriate response to injuries inflicted on security officers during the protests, is stifling any chances of the talks of a renewed nuclear deal, pushing part of the Iranian regime to look for closer relations with Russia as an alternative to the west. The Canadian foreign minister, Mélanie Joly, also denounced the executions, saying: "Two more lives lost to senseless executions from the Iranian regime." Calling on Iran to put an end to such brutal and inhumane sentences, Joly expressed solidarity with Iranians who have a right to their human rights.

Republicans have pledged to use their new, if narrow, House majority to frustrate his plans and cast him before the American public as too old and outwitted to deserve a second term. Top House Republicans have pledged to use their new powers in ways that could lead to some uncomfortable moments for the White House, from subpoenas and public hearings to showdowns over funding the government and defaulting on the nation’s debt. The GOP doesn’t even hide the fact at all that once they have taken over the House, they have absolutely no intention once again at doing anything to help the American people. Americans saw them try to overthrow our government just two years ago from yesterday, overturn Roe, and say stuff like these things, and yet three million more people (54.5 million in total) thought, “yeah let’s put them back in charge!”. I am happy the Democrats were able to still limit the loss of seats with all the circumstances surrounding this election, but it’s just sad to think that sometimes.
