You can’t out run a fascist superpower. No where will be safe. We live in a very dangerous time.

Trump is a poor man’s idea of wealth, an ignorant man’s idea of greatness, and a weak man’s idea of strength. When he burns the country to the ground (again), when its economy collapses (again), brought down by his incompetence (again)—laugh in their MAGAt faces #Talibamicans
In a characteristic display of open corruption, while he commits war crimes by blowing up boats in international waters — most of them crewed by fishermen — he simultaneously pardons a former president of Honduras who was openly a cartel leader

Canada’s economic growth beat expectations this quarter.

We’re diversifying our trade, building big, and creating well-paying careers — and we’re getting results.

Now only did White House pool reporters not stick up for their colleague who Trump repeatedly called “stupid” but you can hear them thanking Trump a few minutes later after he ended the Q&A. Sad stuff.

This is pretty much the actual definition of a war crime.
Hegseth issued an illegal Caribbean strike order: “Kill them all.”

SEAL Team 6 hit the boat and saw survivors clinging to the wreckage.

Commanders then ordered a second strike to finish them off.

Killing survivors is blatantly illegal.

Belgium is once again holding up €140 billion in support for Ukraine. PM Bart De Wever told the European Commission that using frozen Russian assets for reparations could interfere with signing a future peace deal between Ukraine and Russia.

What interest does Belgium have here?

Among other things, the (nebulous but clearly unconstitutional) attack on naturalized US citizens contained in this screed is a significant escalation.
Trump: “I will permanently pause migration from all Third World Countries … denaturalize migrants who undermine domestic tranquility, and deport any Foreign National who is a public charge, security risk, or non-compatible with Western Civilization.“

This is unhinged, unadulterated white nationalism that is so off-the-charts fascist not even David Duke would have said that in public.

Oh….

The Russian bribery net is closing in on Nigel Farage - it’s time for a full and thorough investigation into Farage, Tice, Reform, UKIP, and the Brexit Party, to find out the extent to which Farage was involved in this outside influence from Putin and Russia… 🇷🇺 🤔

Experts say it’s highly unusual for the White House to tell agents to give up custody of potential evidence in an investigation, as it did with the Tates.

“I’ve never heard of anything like that in my 30 years working,” an ex-DHS official said.
The White House Intervened on Behalf of Accused Sex Trafficker Andrew Tate During a Federal Investigation
Federal authorities were chided for seizing electronic devices from Tate and his brother, and told to return them, records and interviews show. Experts said the intervention was highly inappropriate.

Nothing to see here: Just a CIA trained killer from an elite unit travels from Washington State to DC to shoot random National Guard troops at a random train station on Thanksgiving Eve. Even MAGA has to know this smells rotten.

This reads like Trump just gave a greenlight to China to invade Taiwan because if you’re China and you’re hearing this, there’s never been a clearer path than there is at this moment. That stupid trade war that self sabotaging myopic idiotic trade war.
“.. Japanese officials said the message was worrying: the president didn’t want friction over Taiwan to endanger a detente reached last month with Xi, which includes a promise to buy more agricultural products from American farmers ..”

If the state of Delaware prohibited companies incorporated there from spending on elections in any way, Citizens United would be dead in the water.

Delaware incorporates more companies than any other state.

It’s a blue state. Let’s get cracking on moving Delaware lawmakers on this!

You have to ask, why was Witkoff chosen for this critically important role of special envoy to Putin? He had no diplomatic or foreign policy experience. No education on those subjects. So of all people, why him? I think what we all surmised is clear - Putin wanted Witkoff.

I was just thinking about contributing to the "charity" Feeding America. Until I discovered that the salary for its CEO, Claire Babineaux-Fontenot, was approximately $949,866 in 2024, with her total compensation being $1,113,502. Apparently, feeding America isn't her top priority.
