Our president is our national humiliation.
Not the sort of letter committed to paper by a well man. "Considering your Country decided not to give me the Nobel Peace Prize for having stopped 8 Wars PLUS, I no longer feel an obligation to think purely of Peace"

The way to end all this is for the EU to immediately get hyper-aggressive with sanctioning and tariffing every American they can find.

The man has worse approvals than at any point in his prior term plus it’s an election year. It’s all a bluff. Call it!

The idiocy of Trump is almost divine. Someone on that other site said "How stupid can he be if he ran all that real estate stuff in NYC?" Well, we could argue about that, but I will admit he has a certain animal cunning. Of course, my first agent used to say, "Shit full of gas always floats."

One death every three days
This is the sixth death in ICE custody in 18 days. This isn’t enforcement, it’s a system that cages people, outsources care, and shrugs when they die. Abolish ICE.

"Yeah, you'll notice there that Bessent was just trying to defend the President, but he didn't actually mention what the President did. The President threatened the Fed chair, Jay Powell, with jail. He threatened Jay Powell with jail for doing what Congress told Jay Powell to do."

We're on the verge of civil war in Minnesota and world war in Greenland due to a declining, psychotic, unqualified, authoritarian weirdo -- but sure, news media, keep collapsing on your fainting couches over a mayor who said the f-word 11 days ago. Way to prioritize.
KARL: In the hours after the shooting of Renee Good, you went on national TV and said to ICE, 'get the F out of Minneapolis.' Do you regret that language? That doesn't sound like turning the temperature down

JACOB FREY: I don't regret it at all. If I seemed like I was angry and frustrated, I was.

Citing the exact reason it must be investigated as your rationale for not investigating.
BREAM: Is the FBI investigating the ICE agent who shot Renee Good?

BLANCHE: What happened has been reviewed by millions of Americans bc it was recorded. We investigate when it's appropriate. That is not the case here. We are not going to bow to pressure. So no, we are not investigating.

Congress can stop ICE. Congress can block the use of force in Greenland. In other words, in this crisis, Congress can act to support civil liberties at home and free nations abroad. To fail to act would be to be complicit in a dreadful outcome.

Four GOP Senators.

At most four Repubs in the House.

Together they could stop nearly all the mad-king's rampages. They would be known to history as Profiles in Courage. They might/would lose the next election. But people have sacrificed a lot more, for a lot less.
I can't repeat this enough.
I've said this before and I'll say it again.
It would only take a tiny handful of Republican Congress members or senators to stop the slide of America toward authoritarian fascism, but nope. They're all in.

The president's threat to impose tariffs on countries that oppose his desire to acquire Greenland shows that he does not see tariffs as an economic tool to help America, but as a weapon to hurt his enemies. That's the fundamental nature of his entire presidency.
