It’s wrong to lump all top Trump people in one category. There are differences among them. But they do seem to fall into three (sometimes overlapping) categories:

• Ordinary criminals (grift and corruption).

• Sex criminals.

• War criminals.

Bookmark this for the investigations to come: the Trump team’s boat bombings trace back to at least 2018. That’s when White House officials asked me & others about whether they could do something like this.

We said it was illegal then. Now they’ve done it anyway.

Extraordinary WSJ reporting today that unveils the extent to which Trump, Witkoff, Kushner and US business executives are salivating over business deals with Russia while Putin’s forces kidnap Ukranian children and bomb civilians in their apartments.

🎁 www.wsj.com/world/russia...
WSJ Gentry Beach, a college friend of Donald Trump Jr. and campaign donor to his father, has been in talks to acquire a stake in a Russian Arctic gas project if it is released from sanctions. Another Trump donor, Stephen P. Lynch, paid $600,000 this year to a lobbyist close to Trump Jr. who is helping him seek a Treasury Department license to buy the Nord Stream 2 pipeline from a Russian state-owned company. One sign that he may be serious is that some of his most-trusted friends, sanctioned billionaires from his St. Petersburg hometown-Gennady Timchenko, Yuri Kovalchuk and the Rotenberg brothers, Boris and Arkady-have sent representatives to quietly meet American companies to explore rare-earth mining and energy deals, according to people familiar with the meetings and European security officials. That includes reviving the giant Nord Stream pipeline, sabotaged by Ukrainian tactical divers, and under European Union sanctions. Earlier this year, Exxon Mobil met with Russia's biggest state energy company, Rosneft, to discuss returning to the massive Sakhalin gas project if Moscow and Washington gave the green light.

Trump’s America is brutal, perverse, regressive, insular and afraid. There is no hope in it; there is no light in it. It is a vast expanse of darkness and desolation. -Charles M. Blow

At left: a New York Times letter to the editor from October 9, 2001, warning that "the newly formed homeland security office" could lead America to a very dark place

At right: Tweets today from the Trump Department of Homeland Security
To the Editor: To aid the newly formed homeland security office, some Americans have advocated the formation of a volunteer ''army'' of citizens -- retired or otherwise -- that would be ''enlisted'' for purposes of neighborhood surveillance and investigation (letter, Oct. 9). This idea strikes me as frighteningly Orwellian. Will every out-of-the-ordinary activity be monitored? Will we have to keep our curtains drawn and doors shut for fear of being turned in by our neighbors, friends and children? Have recent events changed our worldview so radically that we are willing to endorse a police state? Is America to become a nation of spies? STUART LUTH New York, Oct. 9, 2001 DHS tweets: The stakes have never been higher, and the goal has never been more clear: Remigration now.

Today’s feed wasn’t outrage. It was obedience training. Influencers treated Trump’s “reverse migration” manifesto like holy scripture, repeating it word 4 word & celebrating mass removal as destiny. This is how authoritarian policy becomes normalized. #Voices4Victory #DV1 #ProudBlue 11/28/25 AM

This is Nazism. And the only reason some folks cannot see it is because they, themselves, are also dangerous fascists. This may be the most un-American statement ever uttered by a man currently serving as co-President of the United States. It spits in the face of everything America is.

Absolutely. Doing this remotely with drones or bombs is no different than pulling up in a boat and shooting them in the water. If this isn’t an illegal order, hard to imagine what could be.

And unlike some of the finer questions of “was the president’s inherent Art 2 powers in play”, shouldn’t offing people who are hors de combat be clearly known to be an illegal order all the way down the line to the lowest Seaman?

A reminder that the current SECDEF caught the eye of the president by championing the pardoning of American war criminals — men whose own units testified against them, and who were convicted by military juries

He should never have been nominated for, let alone confirmed in, this job

They're pushing hard to get rid of Zelenskyy because the russians are running out of time faster than trump can betray us all. They have no more time left. putler is desperate and this complex ops is pretty much his last card. If he fails now and also the frozen funds go to Ukraine the war is over.
