What 60 Minutes captured, even through its cautious editing, was a man collapsing under the weight of his own mythology, the first president to hold both records for longest shutdowns, to confuse tariffs with taxes, nukes with metaphors, and pardons with poker chips.

Sixty Minutes in the Twilight Zone

Donald Trump’s CBS meltdown reveals a president who doesn’t understand tariffs, nukes, health care, or democracy, but does know he’s “better looking” than Zohran Mamdani.

A president who believes he can declare war without Congress, spy on citizens without warrants, and suppress journalists without consequence. A DOJ that treats oversight as optional. A Pentagon press shop that treats the First Amendment like a draft notice.

Oil, Lies, and Videotape

Inside the administration’s phantom war on “drug traffickers,” the media blackout around Epstein’s finances, and the steady unmaking of democracy, one OLC memo at a time.

“They were careless people,” Fitzgerald wrote, “they smashed up things and creatures and then retreated back into their money or their vast carelessness or whatever it was that kept them together, and let other people clean up the mess they had made.”

Young people say, ‘What good can one person do? What is the sense of our small effort?’ They cannot see that we must lay one brick at a time, take one step at a time

The Constitution explicitly says states and Congress set the rules for elections, not the president. Donald Trump cannot do whatever he wants to, because Donald Trump is not a king. The rule of law still stands.

Good News: A Court Rejects Trump's Effort To Suppress The Vote

In March, Donald Trump issued an executive order titled “PRESERVING AND PROTECTING THE INTEGRITY OF AMERICAN ELECTIONS.” Predictably, it was designed to do anything but that.

I remember, and they treated it like it was a stupid argument. Ask the families of the Venezuelan and Colombian victims who were killed while fishing their how they feel about it. Not so stupid or hypothetical now, huh?!

And perhaps that’s the most fitting metaphor for Trump’s America 2.0, a country run by men who think the world is their stage, the Constitution their prop, and the truth just something you can edit out in post.

The government isn’t shut down because of gridlock, it’s shut down because Trump is terrified of the Epstein files and will hold the nation hostage to keep them sealed.

In the end, a president who “doesn’t give a shit” only survives when no one else does either.
