Trump doesn't, and will never, care about Ukraine or whether Russia swallows it whole. He only cares about what he will get -- what Russian might give him, what Ukraine might give him -- what grift he can achieve. Putin, trained by the KGB, is toying with Trump and his emissaries.

newly released National Security Strategy, align with autocracies, not democracies--there is no f**ing way rump thought this up, wrote it, or read it. He's just the "instrument" (as Bannon refers to him) for Miller, Vance, and Proj 25 devotees aaronparnas.substack.com/p/urgent-tru...?
Urgent: Trump National Security Strategy Embraces Authoritarian States and Abandons Democracy in Significant Shift
I spent the past several hours reviewing Trump's national security strategy. It is a stunning departure of American norms and ideals.

“The American Revolution,” Ken Burns’ new docuseries, “is intelligently self-critical history of a kind most people worldwide are deprived of,” John McWhorter writes. “Showing us what the era entailed for all different kinds of early Americans isn’t woke; it’s accurate.”
Opinion | ‘The American Revolution’ Is Not Woke. It’s Magnificent.
Don’t be shocked: There were Black people and Native Americans during the colonial era.

"The president could also stop mass deportations of the agricultural workforce, which even his own administration says is a threat to 'the stability of domestic food production and prices for U.S. consumers.'"
Trump’s Affordability “Con Job”
He pooh-poohs cost complaints as a “hoax.” Here’s what the numbers say.

I called the boat attacks murder as soon as the first one happened, but after reading the details of it all I think that undersells it. It was murder combined with torture. An utter atrocity for which everyone in the chain of demand, on up to Trump, deserves prison.

1-seems unlikely that two probably injured people clinging to a boat intended to continue "their drug run" without an operable boat 2-while trump/hegseth have no problem throwing the Admiral under the bus, it's doubtful the Admiral will try to throw his commanders under the bus

there is no longer sensible and serious leadership in America
In a more sensible and serious world, Mark Kelly would take Pete Hegseth’s job as secretary of defense, @radiofreetom.bsky.social argues:
Senator Mark Kelly Is in the Wrong Job
He should be secretary of defense.

that name is going to be chiseled the hell off that building when he's drummed out of office
Step 1: destroy and pillage US Institute of Peace (also USAID)

Step 2: try to rename the Department of Defense “Department of War”

Step 3: commit war crimes

Step 4: demand Nobel Peace Prize

Step 5: threaten to invade Venezuela

Step 6:
TRUMP: "This is our first occasion in this building using it for PEACE. Marco, You've done a fantastic job."
