I imagine the world community is looking at the sanctions that will need to be imposed on the US if it just starts invading countries for their resources.

We went from a country that defended others from being invaded for their natural resources, to a country that is now threatening to invade others for their natural resources.

Demolishing the East Wing of the White House before finalizing plans for what will be built above its ruins is a near-perfect metaphor for Trump's approach to economic policy. The only difference is the wrecking crew doesn’t claim the rubble is evidence of unprecedented growth.

You know, apropos of nothing in particular, and although I haven't researched it yet, I strongly suspect that a president starting a foreign war to distract from his extensive ties with child sex traffickers is probably a high crime or misdemeanor under the Constitution's impeachment clauses.

I was just in China and this doesn’t surprise me one bit.
The EVs on the road there are outstanding and the prices are shockingly affordable. China let Tesla build and sell cars there, learned the playbook, then knocked them off and outperformed them in every way.

Your Black Friday reminder that in 75% of U.S. industries, a smaller number of companies now control more of the business than they did twenty years ago. We must stop the monopolization of America. Shop small if you can, please.

Gov Walz is saying what we’ve been saying. If the president is this erratic, then the public deserves to know what is going on. Four simple words: show the MRI results.
If Trump is fine, prove it. If he isn’t, step aside.

The war will end when Russia stops fighting. Therefore, pressure has to be put on Russia, so that they stop believing that they will win. Why is that so hard to understand?

The shooting of two Guardsmen in DC is a tragedy.
It is also EXACTLY what Trump wanted and was waiting for.
No POTUS has ever so premeditated getting our troops shot at for the sake a personal ambition as brutal as it is demagogic, dictatorial, and illegal.
This is on (a) the shooter, (b) Trump.

A lot of disinformation is circulating about what Senators/Representatives Slotkin, Kelly, Crow, Deluzio, Goodlander, and Houlahan actually said. Here is the transcript. It contains no accusation that the President issued unlawful orders, no call to disobey lawful orders, and no advocacy of mutiny.
