This is Michael Cohen, once Trump's attorney, who went to prison for various various Trump-related things. He helped bribe Stormy Daniels and he lied to congress.

He would have kept helping Trump if he hadn't been caught. Now he's just pissed that he can't commit crimes with Trump anymore.

We are in a recession, by the way. A bad one. Prices are way up. People can't find jobs.

I am plugged into this in a very real way. The stock market is just not important unless you are in the top 10%/1%.

I have not seen a labor market this bad since 2008. The 2nd Great Depression is coming.

I just don't know if this whole dictator thing is going to work out. The economy is in a recession and people are struggling. They might have moved too fast. Vance could totally do the whole "war with Venezuela" thing in 2028 and wait until then to cancel elections.

Want to know something crazy? The Trump cabinet could just 25th Amendment the guy and it would be better for all of them. Vance could stop all the crazy tariffs, stabilize the economy, and generally make the population happier. He could still seize power and stay forever, and nobody would care.

"now allies?" we've been allies for decades. We have military bases in Qatar. We've sold them weapons for a long time. This isn't a new thing.

Best-case scenario, Trump tries to declare martial law at the exact moment that hundreds of thousands of service members are unable to buy food.

Basically half the world's air forces do training in the US. Dozens of countries. It's been a big thing for a long time. At any given time there are lots of them in the US at various bases. We effectively are their training academies on the planes and weapons we sell them. It's not a novel thing.

MAGA people started threatening the Chicago judge (for the national guard deployments) 10 minutes after she was assigned to the case.

MAGA is the most violent, evil movement this country has ever seen.

As Perry questions Hamilton about whether DOJ believes that threats against federal agents is enough to warrant the deployment of the National Guard, she says she started getting threats about 10 minutes after she was assigned to this case.

never fear! the Glide Phase Interceptor will soon be here. at $69M per AUR, we will procure 3-4 AURs per year. Every large surface combatant will get one, eventually.

Damn looks like a war zone, just like Portland. People dug into trenches, artillery fire being exchanged, drone strikes, people bleeding out. You know, war stuff.

Judge Perry has now entered a temporary restraining order that says federal officials are “temporarily enjoined from ordering the federalization and deployment of the National Guard of the United States within Illinois” for the next 14 days.

An appeals court might soon allow Trump to federalize the Oregon National Guard and deploy them to Portland, overturning the earlier ruling from a lower court that blocked the deployments of Guard units from Oregon, California, and elsewhere.
