Democracy dies in broad daylight.
Jim Jordan must be talking about Trump’s pardon of January 6th rioters.

All over the world, revelations from the Epstein files are ending careers, except in the U.S. It’s all about money and politics here, so the powerful are completely insulted by the consequences of their actions.

All 20 people watching from home were deeply moved. Trump wasn’t one of them, as evidenced by video showing the Mar-a-Lago crowd watching Bad Bunny.

I’m not saying this is unpresidential, because it should be blatantly obvious.

I was just watching TV the other day. There was a recording of a violent murder by ICE agents who tacked a man to the ground and emptied ten rounds into him, taking him from his family. These are the people McCormick wants to stand behind. That was what the president ran on.
Sen. Dave McCormick: "I was just watching television the other day. There was a recording of a violent voicemail that was left for an ICE member and his family. These are people that we need to stand behind. They're enforcing the law. That was what the president ran on."

The U.S. will defend its interests against China by severing its military and trade bonds with NATO allies — causing the EU and Canada to re-risk from the U.S. and pushing Canada into trade deals with China. It’s the biggest own goal I’ve seen in my lifetime.

The Speaker of the House openly admits to abdicating his responsibilities. If he disagrees with the President, he does what the President says. There’s no need to continue an interview with a guy that has no agency.
WELKER: MTG says you're '100% under the direct orders of the WH'

JOHNSON: The president and I work closely together because we have unified govt. That's what the American people voted for

W: Is there any area where you disagree?

J: Yes. But we do that privately. I'm going to support my president.

Trump’s feeling the heat, so it’s to start throwing people under the bus. If things don’t cool down, Noem’s probably next.

Bessent’s argument is that, you have the right to bear arms. If you do, ICE can shoot you, regardless of whether you draw your weapon, and even after they’ve taken it from you.
Bessent: I'm sorry he is dead, but he did bring a semiautomatic weapon to what was supposed to be a peaceful protest.

Karl: There's no evidence that he brandished the gun whatsoever

Bessent: But he brought a gun!

Karl: We do have a second amendment in this country.

For the sake of argument, let’s pretend this was a city’s local law enforcement. Let’s also assume that the man being subdued by multiple officers was an actual criminal. This would be murder. Police aren’t allowed to just kill people. We can stop pretending now.
More evidence that the US government are lying liars who will lie about anything, this footage of ICE killing Alex Pretti supports the claim he was protecting a woman from violent ICE agents. The only thing he was brandishing was a phone.

This is more than an abdication of job responsibilities. It’s an abdication of morality and personal accountability in service of a party in service of compensation for addictive media attention. When evaluating tradeoffs, even murder is acceptable.
They’re just gonna try to lie their way through it

This is the kind of guy that would start World War III by invading an ally and claim victory for ending it when he abandons his country and flees to Argentina.
Trump to the Board of Peace: "We have peace in the Middle East. Nobody thought that was possible. We've settled 8 wars, and I believe another one is coming pretty soon. And you know what that is. The one that I thought was gonna be a easy one."

At what point will the press start pressing him as lying or incompetent? One is true. In a dictatorship, there is little point in interviewing underlings. They don’t have opinions. They don’t make decisions. Trump is mercurial. Johnson and his team are playing dress-up and wasting everyone’s time.
Surprise! Mike Johnson says he hasn't seen any of Trump's (bonkers) speech in Davos

Incredibly cynical stuff here. They’re going to gaslight their way through it.
BARTIROMO: I mean, we talk about evil action from Putin going into Ukraine. People are looking at Greenland and saying, 'How is it possible the US can acquire another country even though they're pushing back?'

LUTNICK: I don't remember Greenland being another country. We're not taking over Denmark.

Bovino must want to release the Epstein files that the DOJ has withheld to protect pedophiles in violation of a court order.
Bovino: "Think about it just for a second -- what the rape of a child actually entails"

Davos will be a litmus test for Europe. They all know that Trump also invited Russia to join. To sign onto his “Board of Peace” will mean total capitulation for any joining country. They might as well tell Trump to do whatever he wants.
