The Russian-backed government of Serbia under pressure tonight as massive protests fill the center of Belgrade.
It seems that only the US hasn't gotten the note that Russian-backed fascism just isn't cool anymore.

Donald Trump has disgraced the United States of America in countless ways since he first entered political life ten years ago.
But he had never disgraced the nation as badly as he did today.
He has brought shame on this country to an extent I had never thought possible. And he has only just begun.

Complete batshit lunacy on the president's Truth Social account. Yes, he really posted this.

So Trump never really had an issue with criminals entering the country; he just wanted to skim a little off the top when they did. bsky.app/profile/atru...
Trump: "We're gonna be selling a gold card. You have a green card, this is a gold card. We're gonna put a price on that card of about $5 million and that's going to give you green card privileges, plus. It's gonna be a route to citizenship, and wealthy people will be coming into our country."

Pretty sure most of the civ-mil scholars are speaking pretty damn plainly about this stuff.
We may quibble on coup vs autogolpe, but we are ringing the alarm bells.
Not sure more than a few are doing discourse analysis to assess if there is a crisis.

Anyone that still supports Trump simply cannot be convinced of Trump’s moral and philosophical vacuousness.
This is about seizing and maintaining power to mollify the insatiable insecurities of a raging malignant narcissist.
We need to convince the few left who are willing to listen AND act.

Rarely has so much ignorance & ahistorical BS been crammed into a single tweet. I know JD Vance & Donald Trump are busy surrendering to a KGB butcher, abandoning the cause of freedom, & destroying the security of America & her allies, but they'd do well to spend some time actually studying history.

We have thoroughly destroyed every norm that makes self-governance practicable.
Some by complacent neglect. Others were killed quietly in the dark and nobody noticed.
And some are being slain in light of day by the very man who swore an oath to uphold history’s best attempt to codify those norms.

Of course Trump happens to be quoting a lien from a movie produced by the Russian government in 1980.

No kidding, this is a line of dialogue from a 1970 movie funded by the Russian government.

So, friends, we have finally found some "waste, fraud, and abuse" in the federal government. $400m worth, and it is from Musk himself. He's just outright stealing money now.
It appears Musk is forcing the State Department to buy $400m worth of armored Tesla cybertrucks which one would assume would be placed prominently outside American embassies across the world as a marketing and sales effort for his flagging company.
Interesting: the State Department’s procurement forecast detailing a $400 million order for "armored Tesla" has now been edited to "armored electric vehicles." The document shows the edit was made tonight at 9:12 p.m. -- after it was highlighted in reports
