Today I wrote about the Epstein files, the abusiveness intrinsic to the billionaire mindset, and our culture's enabling instinct to permit depravity as a privilege of power.

"Where does it all end?" That's what's often asked. Rarely asked is "how do we end it?"

The deadly shooting in Minneapolis today was a straight-up execution of a protester by Trump's federal brownshirts.

The thugs wrestled him to the ground. They pistol-whipped him, then shot him multiple times. They murdered him.

I understand the logic of providing Trump an off-ramp so he can back out with some dignity, but I think it's dangerous to do so. Each time these issues are resolved this way, he will be tempted to conduct himself this way again. What he needs is a public spanking.

The choice is impeachment and removal or calamity for the United States. I don't see how anybody watching Trump's speech in Davos can draw any other conclusion. He's a senile madman.

Thought-provoking piece by @lewisgoodall.com. He argues that the US under Trump is no longer from the UK perspective a
- military ally (Greenland)
- strategic ally (Russia/Ukraine)
- political ally (NSS calling for empowering far-right in Europe)
- economic ally (tariffs)
The Valueless Presidency
America is no longer Europe's ally. Stop bleating about NATO. It's already gone.

It's 25th Amendment time.

The Belgian PM: "Until now, we tried to appease the new president... We were lenient hoping to get his support for the Ukraine war. … But now so many red lines are being crossed... Being a happy vassal is one thing. Being a miserable slave is something else"

NEW: I spoke with this bishop, who offered more context for his (entirely unprepared!) remarks.

Turns out other bishops (e.g., in MN) agree with him, and he recalled the moment he told local priests to get their wills in order.

“There was a little gasp,” he said. religionnews.com/2026/01/15/t...
