First it was "we have to blow up dozens of people on boats because of fetnanyl." But obviously it wasn't fentanyl being trafficked so then: narco terrorists are shipping cocaine! But then Wiles tells a reporter it's all about regime change and today it's bc US oil companies got kicked out in 2007?

Quickly lost track of how many lies Trump shouted out tonight, but the main takeaway is that he has clearly lost touch with reality. Delusional.
The most honest thing he said was, “no one can believe what’s going on.”

While the media chums it up with Greene, reminder that she has a bill going before the House today to make it a *federal crime* to provide or advocate for healthcare for trans youth.
Marjorie Taylor Greene: "What I'd like to see from the president is empathy for Americans. Donald Trump is a billionaire and he's the president. When he looks into a camera and says 'affordability is a hoax,' he's talking to Americans that are suffering and have been for many years now."

As a psychologist I’ve definitely seen an increase in the last 15 years. One of the big changes, I think, is that boundary setting and a refusal to ignore bad behavior for the sake of calm definitely escalate the process. I have a hunch that’s got something to do with “male loneliness,” too.

There's no hard data, so it's impossible to know for sure, but I suspect the number of adult children cutting off their parents isn't significantly higher than it used to be, and what's actually new is that the children are now explaining it in therapy terms rather than simply ceasing contact.

Funny (not funny) thing is that Trump first gained power because the GWB administration made a war out of thin air. Criticizing the Iraq war was largely how he separated himself from the other 2016 GOP presidential candidates.
If only he was able to remember this.

I still can't believe they're trying to make a war happen out of thin air. Not just their abrogation of Congress's role in formally declaring a war -- that's been a slippery slope for decades -- but their total unwillingness even to go through the motions of drumming up public support.

Bari Weiss’ anti-woke “university” is chaired and co-founded by Joe Lonsdale, the tech billionaire who recently defended Trump’s illegal boat bombing campaign on the grounds that it’s “masculine.”

A good rule of thumbs is that if a country doesn't have a strong enough opposition to unseat their own dictator, they don't have a strong enough opposite to fill the power vacuum if you do it for them. Something you'd think the US would have learned after like the 15th time this century.

Unbelievable. This would be a terrible blow to American science, writ large. It would decimate not only climate research, but also the kind of weather, wildfire, and disaster research that has underpinned half a century of progress in prediction, early warning, and increased resilience.
Exclusive: The Trump administration is moving to dismantle the National Center for Atmospheric Research in Colorado, according to a senior White House official, taking aim at one of the world's leading climate research labs.

That means higher insurance premiums will go into effect for millions of Americans next year.
