Canada’s Prime Minister Mark Carney is my HERO. He shut down Trump’s usual rambling blame session at the G7 meeting in Canada today.

Don’t rollover & sell our freedom for a short timeout. Peaceful oppression is a fantasy. Oppression requires the constant threat of violence, suffering & pain.

A larger percentage than many will admit are more afraid of diversity than dictatorship. "Other" people, sadly, scare a lot of "us." We have to get over it before we destroy each other.

Did Ms Garcia sleep through the first Trump fiasco? Did she miss the Trump admin's treatment of border crossers? Did she not hear Trump's 2024 campaign rhetoric about deporting millions if elected? Now she says, "this is not what we voted for." This is exactly what you voted for.
She thought the racism came with a carve-out for bilingual bootlickers.

The scary part is her desire to kill Central Asians living in Russia. Putin's hyper NATIONALISM is leading many Russians to extreme ethnic hatred. It's the rationale Putin believes will allow his war in Ukraine to continue. Radical nationalism can backfire & kill many more than soldiers & Putin.
NASA allegedly wanted to attack russia, but the mighty putin prevented it and other pearls from not so intellectual russian woman.
A glimpse into the mind and logic of the average russian. Spoiler alert - there is no logic in them.

I'm amazed that a Republican Senator would properly question Trump's "advisor" Lutnick. I'm not surprised that Trump & the four people, including Lutnick, who came up with the Tariff Policy have no clue what they are seeking.

From videos of these ICE assholes (ICE-holes??) I'm going to assume that there are "issues" at most ICE hubs.
Weapons Violations, Misconduct, and Whistleblower Retaliation at ICE

Scores of internal documents suggest a commitment to safety and law and order may stop at the entrance to ICE’s Houston deportation hub.

More examples of Trump failing to see the cascading effects of his tariffs. If he could plan ahead he might have seen that China could halt rare-earth due to his tariffs. But, unlike most world leaders he can't play 3-D chess or even regular chess. He's playing checkers & getting his ass kicked.

Once Trump is gone from the White House there will be one hell of a clawback of all the money he stole as President. And if TacoMan isn't around, we'll get it from his scummy kids. There will be a day of reckoning.
#Trump is a criminal who is abusing the office of the presidency for illegal self-enrichment at a vast scale. Our elected officials should impeach him, and our courts and juries should put him in prison where he belongs.

Keep this post, mount it on a plaque & put it in the appropriate Smithsonian museum. Why? Because one day in the future someone will ask, "just how stupid was Trump?" Instead of going through thousands of pages of research we can show them this post. And they will know the true depth of stupidity.
It must irritate him to no end that he has to work this hard to sabotage America.

It's not just the American ruling class. It also benefitted all American consumers & anyone who has an IRA or 401(k). As a group, Americans traded US manufacturing jobs with a livable wage for cheaper products & higher stock prices & dividends.

If AI developers are aiming to fulfill our need for 12 more "friends," what will happen to our three human relationships? Will we lose those relationships? My experience with AI "friends" is that they agree with everything I say. Will our future "friends" become just "yes" men & women?

Obama, like Presidents before him observed the Justice Dept's required INDEPENDENCE from politics. Trump uses DOJ, under AG Pam Bondi, to carry out his political policies. Congress can & must investigate this misconduct & cut DOJ's funding for these inappropriate activities.
… oh, if only ….🤦‍♀️

Trump's three-story penthouse apartment at the top of Trump Tower in Manhattan was covered with gold. Trump has never experienced anything but incredible wealth. Yet, he has no problem telling Americans, of all income levels, that they can do with less.
Things the president of the United States said on meet the press today:

He doesn’t know if he has to follow the constitution

He’s fine with a recession

Americans can do with less

Small businesses are just “a couple of little businesses”

Trump's reasoning for using the Alien Enemies Act to speed up deportations of Venezuelans by saying they're an "invasion or threat." But the Act was meant to be used ONLY during a war & is not meant for normal immigration enforcement.

If a "great America" looks like this why would anyone want it back?
The U.S. Justice Department terminated an agreement to remedy the ongoing sanitation crisis in Lowndes County, AL. Now residents of the county are at risk of criminal penalties or even property loss for sanitation conditions they can not afford to fix themselves.

I actually think he's gotten much worse. But that's really the story of his life. He started out rich with Daddy's money & the skills to be a slum lord & now all he can do is scream at our allies, destroy our economy & try to kill Democracy. (Which we won't ever let him do!)

When Trump's gone & Dems regain power someday, we should make English & Spanish America's two official languages. We can call it the "Trump Act".
April 30, 2025 at 10:50 PM
Are Trump's nominees for gov't positions the same people he pardoned for Jan6? They could be because I've never seen this many scumbags in the Capitol Building since then.

Also, every single Dem Senator better vote no on this guy or JUST RETIRE NOW!!!.
Hopefully a few GOP Sens will also vote NO.

Putin has increased troops on the Russian/Finnish border & he wants the Baltic states "back." If the war in Ukraine continues to be a stalemate, look for Putin to keep his military economy busy & divert Russian's attention by attacking Finland, the Baltic States or both. Oh, and all are in NATO.
🇪🇪Six HIMARS MLRS were handed over to the Estonian Defense Forces at Ämari Air Base. HIMARS were delivered to Estonia by the Ukrainian An-124.
