The Democrat in Miami just defeated the Republican ICE cheerleader for mayor. Turns out even in Florida, people are tired of cruelty masquerading as leadership. Republicans had held this seat for the last three decades. Let that…sink in.

EU officials are weighing the 'Nuclear Option' of dumping U.S. Treasuries if Trump cuts a Ukraine deal and betrays the Allies. This would trigger an economic collapse in the US, millions would lose everything overnight and Saudi Arabia, UAE, and China would buyout the country.

David Ellison reportedly told Trump he’d make “sweeping changes” to CNN if Paramount’s takeover of Warner Bros. gets approved.
Meanwhile, Jared Kushner and three Middle East countries are backing the bid — while Kushner advises Trump on foreign policy.

Wow 🤯
It gets worse. Trump also says straight out that an invasion of Venezuela "on land" is coming and says he'd expand all this to Mexico and Colombia. Incredibly, no one even bothers pointing out anymore that he is claiming authority to do all of this without Congress:

U.S. layoffs set to surpass the Great Recession levels, on track to be worst since Great Depression. Spectre of economic collapse looming. Food lines growing longer across every region. Millions unable to afford basic medication or housing. Next year promises to be worse.

Completely agree. Sure, Americans voted this guy in but the Republicans in Congress are the reason Trump and his cronies are in office and destroying our democracy. And SCOTUS is an accomplice.
