Once upon a time, to dominate one single country, a totalitarian regime needed propaganda and secret police. Now, Donald Trump dominates our every waking hour using nothing but his phone.
Shitpost totalitarianism
This week: no, Britain never had a claim to Greenland; and an extremely irritating map. But first: why Donald Trump is like a global toothache.

This is NOT NORMAL.
Trump: “Maybe we should have put NATO to the test: Invoked Article 5, and forced NATO to come here and protect our Southern Border from further Invasions of Illegal Immigrants, thus freeing up large numbers of Border Patrol Agents for other tasks.”

If Armando Iannucci and Stewart Lee making fun of Trump and his Board of Peace for half an hour sounds like just the ticket today, Ianucci's podcast can be found here. I laughed so hard: www.bbc.com/audio/play/m...

They would kick your butt straight to jail without passing Go. They’d make you sell your house, car and stuff or send bailiffs round.
But if you are Farage, they will shake their heads, have a little chuckle at ‘silly Nigel’ and go back to chasing us peasants for our hard-earned cash.

Definitely Trump Delusional Syndrome.
If any other president had said this despicable thing, it would result in immediate retractions and clarifications, days of media speculation about his mental state, lots of international criticism, and the resignations on principle of some staffers in the White House and broader administration.
Trump on NATO: "I've always said, will they be there if we ever needed them? That's really the ultimate test. I'm not sure of that. We've never needed them. They'll say they sent some troops to Afghanistan and this or that. And they did. They stayed a little back, off the front lines."

Great news that arts venues, museums, libraries and heritage buildings are set to be boosted by major new funding from the government.
Organisations mentioned - from Natural History Museum to the BFI - are cultural powerhouses. It’s vital they’re supported and protected.

NATO did not "stay a little back, off the front lines."
Danish, British and Estonian troops served in Helmand, and Canadian forces in Kandahar - the two most dangerous Afghan provinces.
Denmark, UK, Estonia & Canada suffered amongst the highest per‑capita soldier death rates when defending the US.

Russian attacks on the Ukrainian power grid are pure terror against Ukrainian civilians. They say it openly on their state media that their goal is a country-scale torture campaign. They want to dehumanize us and break our spirit. And if anyone cares at this point, yes, it's a war crime
