Greetings from outside the USA, where corruption is now considered the only path to success.

How is it that we already know so much about the guy who shot 2 national guardsmen this afternoon but we know pretty much nothing about the two guys who tried to assassinate the president months ago?

On this sacred day I'm thankful for bathroom light switches that are inside the bathroom. For some reason, in much of the world, they are outside the door, giving little brothers endless sources of entertainment.

This is from the WBUR article. There’s…kind of a lot to unpack here.
![Department of Homeland Security spokesperson Tricia McLaughlin said in a statement that Ferreira had a "previous arrest for battery." She entered the U.S. on a tourist visa that required her to leave the U.S. in 1999, McLaughlin said.
"Under President Trump and Secretary [Kristi] Noem, all individuals unlawfully present in the United States are subject to deportation," McLaughlin said.
A lawyer for Ferreira was not immediately available for comment.
No battery charges against Bruna Ferreira could be located in Massachusetts' online court records.
Michael Leavitt won $1 million in a DraftKings contest in 2014, according to The North Andover Eagle Tribune. At the time, the story said, Leavitt and Ferreira were engaged and their son was 8 months old.](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:jmkqmjhcix7yldblun3fxjyy/bafkreifhkcmfr64hdluww4vocxb26fwfxkn4eei5rl4wyfzvvygekc3v3e@jpeg)

US oil companies a few months ago were resigned to working with Maduro and he was prepared to give them all sorts of benefits.
So "oil cos will get the oil" is an especially silly "selling point."

This article is ok, but it memory-holes that Elon Musk threw up a Hitler salute *at the inauguration.* It happened in front of all of us. It was the most anti-semitic thing I've seen in mainstream US politics. People couldn't believe their eyes so they just forgot it. www.nytimes.com/2025/11/23/u...

I have a brilliant idea on how to counter Russia and China. We could focus on building up our partners in Asia and the ongoing conventional fucking war in Europe instead of a pointless war in South America.

Cracks me up how you could just replace Venezuela and Venezuelans with Iraq and Iraqis and it’d be indistinguishable from something written in 2002

I don't think these results show what people think they show. Lots of lefty wishful thinking about this being a Vietnam for Trump. Handled right, it could be his biggest success. Not likely but possible, and people need to be aware of that.
Trump had found an issue more unpopular than his handling of inflation - attacking Venezuela:

Strong disagree. Panama and Granada partly succeeded because Americans didn't know or care about the countries ahead of time. I'm guessing you don't know much either. Without looking, which is larger, Ukraine or Venezuela?
There's a reason most administrations that want to take the nation to war spend a little bit of time, you know, trying to make a case for it?

I think this clip is the key to understanding why Trump acted the way he did with Mamdani. His world revolves around TV ratings.
