Trump cannot do what he does to the US and its citizens without the help of hundreds of thousands of "average" Americans.
Putin cannot wage his immoral war against Ukraine without the help of millions of "average" Russians.
They are all complicit.

The rules based world order is no more.
Thanks to the various authoritarian regimes in north America, the middle east and eastern Europe, the world is in a seriously bad position.
Those regimes and their people will suffer too.
Three of them will be too old to suffer long. It will be their legacy

I'm still amazed at how many GOP reps still repeat the lies and support the cruelty and lawlessness being perpetrated.
Is the threat they're under really that bad?

In the Russian war with Ukraine (that what it is!), I'm tired of commentators telling us that the Russian economy is on the point of collapse.
Many have been saying 'I give it six months' for the past two or three years.
I know they're in 'war economy' mode, but they still keep going.

One thing that is not getting enough attention is that Trump has normalized the idea of the United States supporting the transfer of territory and millions of people from a democracy to a dictatorship.
The ending of freedom for millions is now the official US position.

What the MTG situation shows is that Trump demands loyalty but shows none in return.
All those clowns sitting around him at the oval office desk, who think they're going to be rewarded may be in for a shock.

The US non attendance at the G20 summit shows the sheer ignorance of the Trump Regime.
These are the countries that provide the US corporations with their income.
If the world moves on without the US, it won't be long before alternatives are created.
And that could mean the end of US supremacy.
