I am ratcheting down my social media, but let me just say that all European leaders except on the far Right should note that the U.S. now seeks regime change in their country; basically seeks to depose them. US strategy is to support the political forces that threaten liberal democracy in Europe.

Six decades of insufficiently taxing the wealthiest Americans has become a threat to democracy worldwide.
I wish this were an exaggeration of the new US National Security Strategy. It isn’t.
The NSS makes clear: The US sees as its partner not the people who actually govern Europe, but the factions there aligned with the global far-Right.
‘Sovereignty’, excepting the US, is goodspeak for satrapy.

Remember that California responded by passing Prop 50 last month.
Other states must also counteract Trump's attempt to steal the 2026 midterms.
