Every time Trump breaks the clear letter of the law, the NYT and WaPo write a story about how he’s “pushing boundaries” or “testing the limits of his authority”

He's not Chuck Yeager, guys. He's a crook.

WW3 happens if there are enough Americans stupid enough to believe this and too few brave enough to stop them. Frankly, I don't like the odds.
Bannon:  Canada is in the vital national security interest of the US.  This is inextricably linked to Hemispheric Defense. Hemispheric Defense for the US starts in Canada. Canada's rapidly changing,  these people are hostile to the US. Not neutral. They're hostile to the United States of America.
NBC: Trump has privately intensified criticism of Canada, arguing it is too weak to defend its Arctic territory from Russia and China. He’s urging higher defense spending and deeper U.S.–Canada Arctic cooperation. Unlike Greenland, Trump is not seeking to acquire Canada or deploy U.S. troops there.

Do it. And call in US debt. And implement visas for US travelers. And boycott US products. And don't travel to the US.
Europe may begin selling U.S. assets in response to a new conflict with the US—a move that could trigger a dollar collapse, Bloomberg reports. Deutsche Bank analysts warn Washington’s key vulnerability is living off global financing—and Europe may decide it no longer wants to bankroll the U.S.

BREAKING: The President of the European Parliament, Roberta Metsola, just delivered the strongest rebuke of Donald Trump we’ve seen yet regarding Greenland. Wow.

Fairly sure it’s unintentional, but the end date on this mug being sold by the Smithsonian does make it sound a little like they’re saying America dies in 2026…

The ultimate irony of Trump’s second term is that the self-proclaimed “Tariff President” is helping knock down trade barriers around the globe, writes @steveburgess53.bsky.social.
In response to his bullying, countries are cutting deals with each other. 🇺🇸 #uspoli

Danish Parliament Deputy Speaker Lars-Christian Brask:

"If I could come with some advice, it would be for the Senate & House to start to take control of political power in America because with this erratic & mad behaviour, you have to ask the question, is the President capable of running the US?"

No one could have foreseen this.
“Many had hoped reinfections of COVID would be milder or carry less long-term risk, but we found increased risks for a broad range of conditions, challenging the assumptions many had that children bounce back quickly,”
Keep getting the kids infected... It's going great.

For anyone who can't figure out why so many infection control docs are still desperately trying to manufacture a narrative that COVID isn't airborne, N95s don't work, and nothing could have been done differently in 2020...

...imagine having to face the guilt for this in the mirror every day.

Wut.
The Trump administration has discussed offering asylum to Britain’s Jewish population, a lawyer for the president has said.

Robert Garson, Trump’s personal lawyer, said that the UK was “no longer a safe place for Jews” ⬇️

Mark Carney's "solution" to Trump was to close our borders to arrivants, to kick out immigrants, and to attack all the vulnerable people in Canada. We do not defeat fascism by becoming a mirror of it.
There are Americans facing genocide and the world that doesn’t open its arms to Americans who need safe passage is a world that is leaving people to die, as it once did to Europe’s Jews

Plain and simple. Really.

More pediatric flu complications since COVID arrived

Time period: Complication Rate
2017-Mar '20: 53%
Mar'20-May'23: 63%
May '23-Aug '25: 64%

The authors blame the prevention of COVID infections rather than actual COVID infections aka 'immunity debt'.

I am so tired.

This is it. Options now are bad. Options later will be REALLY, VERY, AWFULLY TERRIBLE.
To those who are claiming that it'd be too cruel and extreme for the EU to cut off American tourist visas now (or to otherwise sanction or inconvenience us Americans in any way)....

You're REALLY not gonna like what happens if the madman Trump is permitted to set off a hot war with Europe.
