"That assumes Trump has any vision at all, of course.
His supporters have a tendency to say that he’s playing five-dimensional chess, only to discover too late that he has eaten half the pieces."

Two questions:

1. Do we still have a War Powers Act, which prevents a president from carrying out military aggression without Congress’s consent?

2. Do we still have a Congress?

What is th United States doing??? Where are our congressional members?

We are bombing a country and abducting their president in defiance of all rules that govern hostile actions against other sovereign nations.

This is the way that Putin behaves not the USA.

Disgusted and angry!

The only mineral rights that Ukraine should grant to Trump should be that he (and only him) personally can excavate via manual labor and no PPE, any minerals within the Chernobyl zone.

We get news of an apparent breakthrough in pancreatic cancer — usually a death sentence, one of the cancers with the worst outcomes — and Trump and Musk are blowing up NIH and with it future cancer cures.

The American people didn’t vote for this.
Not even close to 49.8% did.
current status of American science in two posts:
existential crisis vs transformative breakthrough

a metastable state that will collapse into one future or the other

For those following the story of unidentified men violently dragging a protester from a local Idaho GOP meeting, it turns out they were from a private security firm called LEAR Asset Management.
