"[My father] had one problem," Trump said. "
He started getting, what do they call it?" He pointed to his forehead and looked to his press secretary for the word that escaped him.
"Alzheimer's," Leavitt said.
"Like an Alzheimer's thing," Trump said. "Well, I don't have it."](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:drfb2pdjlnsqkfgsoellcahm/bafkreiddfjrkrizv6r5szmevc7gl3bgwmcoub2i7ondb7cpnnqslhsjtvi@jpeg)

The Carney vibe shift in the last 1.5 weeks implies that he not only knows that Trump isn't going to TACO out of detonating CUSMA, but is about to fuck global trade writ large.

We need to spend next year's entire DoD budget on AKs, C4, and Manpads.

Kind of wild to hear Carney say this so early tbh
In a speech to the World Economic Forum, Mark Carney says middle powers such as Canada must accept that the rules-based international order is effectively dead, and great power rivalry with is here to stay. Key excerpt:

There's a plausible scenario, maybe the most likely one, where Dems win in a landside in November with this fact used to retroactively claim their strategy of relative inaction was brilliant even though that's just the opposition party winning a midterm while the President is deeply unpopular.

Could be this, but I think some in the admin are happy to push Greenland occupation as a means to destroy NATO.
I say this with very little certainty, but I think Trump wanted to push the Europeans on this to see if he could get Greenland, but the European reaction will force him to back down. He will pull an Obama birth certificate move where he declares victory and gets out.
WELKER: Is Greenland or NATO more vital to natl security?
BESSENT: That's obviously a false choice
W: Not to European leaders
B: They will come around & understand they need to be under the US security umbrella. What would happen in Ukraine if the US pulled support? The whole thing would collapse

This is the sort of statement that was expected from every university president and law firm partner over the last year. That those statements weren’t made played a huge part in where we are now and people will remember.
Jerome Powell: "This is about whether the Fed will be able to continue to set interest rates based on evidence and economic conditions—or whether instead monetary policy will be directed by political pressure or intimidation."

I do not think he is doing these things to distract from the Epstein files.
Let's be clear. Donald Trump will indict the Fed Chair, kidnap foreign leaders and kill American citizens in MN if it distracts you from asking WTF is in the Epstein files because HIS BASE doesn't like pedophiles. None of this is normal. But everything he does is from weakness right now.

the odds that this man’s hard drives contain child porn are vastly higher than zero
rw press is using the fact that the shooter, an immigration officer, is married to a much younger recent Filipino immigrant whom he apparently met in the Phillipines as proof that he is not a racist. that is not what i would determine from that fact pattern. i would FOIA 911 calls at his address.

The thing these losers have figured out is that absolutely nobody with a megaphone is willing to just say they’re lying. So if they keep saying the “right” things even when it’s visibly false, they’ll get away with it.
