Trump won't be impeached and he won't be removed from office. We're all going to be forced to watch in horror as he completely destroys America's standing in the world, its economy, and the stability of the world order.

There's nobody that's going to step in to stop this. No one can.

The saddest thing is that they're just figuring out now that he's nuts.

They're just figuring out that he's 🦇💩 crazy.

The world should have embraced Kamala Harris & celebrated her like a God, like they did with Obama in Berlin.

Or they should have stood up for Biden & made clear he was just fine!

No Ozempic for Oprah.

Given our country’s moral compass, the Ozempic might finally do him in.

You cannot overstate how startling it is to see a politician just say the thing with clarity and poise. No fearful hemming. No overwrought qualifying down til it’s meaningless. No lingering sense that there is a loyalty to a donor class or an ideology of stasis that they’d never admit to.
Mamdani: "I am in support of abolishing ICE. What we see is an entity that has no interest in fulfilling its stated reason to exist. We're seeing a government agency that is supposed to be enforcing some kind of immigration law, but instead what it's doing is terrorizing people."

Truth!
The danger is not that neoliberalism is ending, but that it is being replaced by something worse: a world of militarized competition, eco-fascism, and technocratic management of permanent crisis. Acknowledging the collapse of the old order is not the same as building a democratic alternative to it.
What Mark Carney gets wrong about the end of the rules-based order
To re-establish power, defend sovereignty, and strengthen democratic values, Canada and its allies must do more than challenge the American state. We must also confront the influence of US corporate p...

Trump mocked Renee Good’s killing. I watched the video of this yesterday. And this is how the simps at the NY Times lie to their readers about it.

Carney is gutting the areas — global affairs, Statistics Canada — that are absolutely essential to creating the Canadian resilience he claims to seek.
I’m not asking for miracles. I’m looking for him to pay attention to the basics that would actually lay the groundwork for his professed vision.
He’s expanding our military. Updating our systems. And so on and so forth.

I don’t know what you expected. Miracles? To pretend we have power we do NOT have and bluster and fight a battle we aren’t ready for?

If all this is really about bolstering Greenland's capabilities, as Graham is claiming, why is the White House so angry about other NATO states bolstering Greenland's capabilities? And why couldn't the US have done it within existing frameworks that allow for a US military presence?

Neoliberalism’s ideological propaganda was “free markets”. The reality of neoliberal governance was empowerment and protection for the rich, powerful elites.

The renewal of crony capitalism is a continuation of the reality alongside a repudiation of the ideology.

Carney made a good speech today. Now we'll see how he's going to implement it in his actions towards Donald Trump. IMO he's gotta do it before "it" happens, so that Trump's evil sycophants and puppeteers can't try to make us believe it wasn't as bad as it was and demand that we forgive and forget.

Democrats caved on "ICE shouldn't deport U.S. citizens," yes.
They can’t manage to not deport us citizens? Is that a joke?

The vitriol when you do anything other than uncritically praise Carney on threads is unmatched.

It’s also fascinating how they manage to trigger my imposter syndrome with the perfect combo of deep, unrelenting condescension and attacks on my journalistic skill lmao

Compare & contrast. This is Trump’s demand for Greenland. And this is Hitler’s for the Sudetenland.

There is no difference. The language. The unstoppable need to dominate. The megalomania. It’s the same.

And Keir Starmer’s response is appeasement. We are in that moment.
