Trump’s Rob Reiner comment was low even for him, but it’s the week of Epstein Files release and Affordable Care deadline, so look for more stupid Trump stuff to distract you from that.

Epstein. Health care. Eye on the ball.

The conservative justices on our Supreme Court effectively voted that a sitting president can legally commit an insurrection. One of their wives helped to plan it!
Those justices are traitors to our nation.

“This is not America having priorities that don’t involve Europe. It is not isolationism. It is America taking sides with Russia against Europe, because one of America’s two political parties now sees Russian autocracy as preferable to European democracy.”

Fox News’ Chief National Security Correspondent. We are about to go to war for oil, while citing a lie as justification. Again.

Almost daily someone wants to tell me that I should mind my own business and stay out of US "politics". So almost daily I have to remind them that Trumpism affects global economics, environment and peace. I'll do what every concerned global citizen should do. I'll express my opinion. Loudly.

The real enemy of America is Fox 'News.' It keeps Americans in the dark, and feeds them a steady diet of misinformation and all-out lies to ensure their continuing obeisance to the Republican Regime. Sickening.

Biden shows a bit of cognitive decline:

@jaketapper.bsky.social writes a whole ass book.

Trump falls asleep at his own cabinet meetings and daily acts like the most demented psychopath on Earth:

@jaketapper.bsky.social says "that's just Trump being Trump."

That's why Jake Tapper is a damn clown.

Interesting take on why Trump and the MAGA movement are so destructive.
MAGA’s Death Wish
Stephen Holmes attributes the urge for destruction animating Donald Trump's supporters to the fury of frustrated nostalgia.

So disappointed in Mark Carney's approach on this issue. Just wrong in so many ways. But..."Don’t expect Carney or Smith to stake their political fates on telling that hard truth. Hughes, however, can’t ignore the reality of our predicament: “I have four grandchildren who will feel it.”"

Don’t forget LBJ and the war on poverty. If the Dems could just divorce themselves from wall street and dirty money, grow a spine and a set of cajones, and walk the walk, that’d be super.

The Liberals, and Carney, may have lost my support over this antic. I'm from BC, the province the pipeline would cross, where the port would be located, and where oil tankers would transit (through treacherous waters) and where a spill would be devastating. But... BC was not at the table.
