"The Trump regime is a disaster not just for public health in the US, but worldwide. There has been a great deal of discussion of the ways in which Trump’s reckless foreign policy has put global security at risk. But US abandonment of public health leadership may well be even more consequential."
Trump somehow got worse on public health after covid
He's incapable of learning lessons and actively resists it.

If Trump's seizure of Venezuela's oil is simply "diplomacy," so were Bonnie and Clyde's visits to banks.
Chris Wright on seized Venezuelan oil: "We've sold about $1 billion of oil so far. We've recently signed agreements to sell about another $5 billion in the next several months. So you're talking well north of $10 billion a year ... this is way out of the box, groundbreaking Trump diplomacy."

I see the talking points have been issued, and they're going to parrot them no matter how stupid they are
Rep. Steube: "They want ICE agents to have their ID, but they don't want voters who vote in our nation's elections to have ID to show they're actual citizens of our country. The hypocrisy is beyond the pale."

So we launched an unprovoked military operation, seized and sold a foreign country’s natural resources, and stashed the profits in a bank in Qatar.

The Energy Secretary calls this “diplomacy,” but I don’t think that word means what he thinks it means.

In a way, not surprising at all. Public officials like Dr. Birx (who was actually a respected expert on AIDS before Covid) and Fauci often restrained Trump's impulses and Trump hated it. He believes Covid cost him the election (and it did). His new appointees are a revenge against public health.
Not only did Trump fail to learn any lessons from covid, but his public health policies have somehow gotten far more dangerous and destructive in Trump 2.0. God forbid he and RFK Jr have to handle a global pandemic. We'll be pining for the days of Dr. Birx.

"When Lewandowski was told Noem's personal items had been left behind, including a heated blanket, he yelled at Coast Guard staff

The pilot came out of cockpit to see what was happening & Lewandowski insisted plane return to collect Noem's items

When he refused, Lewandowski announced he was fired"
Noem's use of Coast Guard resources strains her relationship with the military branch, sources say
Some early decisions by the homeland security secretary, including to divert Coast Guard resources from a search and rescue mission to the deportation of immigrants, set the tone early.

Rep. Thomas Massie & I called on DOJ to stop protecting this man & underact his name. They relented. Then I took to the House floor to name names. Today, he resigns.

We will not rest until there is elite accountability for the Epstein class.

Could we please stop fucking electing celebrities and get back to the business of running the country with boring people who just want to do a good job.

Zelenskyy has the highest favorability rating of world leaders among Americans. Putin has the lowest.

And who the hell are the 2% who have a very favorable opinion of Putin and Kim Jong Un? Are they nuts?
