Trump is going to declare martial law with or without protestors. He’s already rounding up thousands of innocent people, dismantling the government, looting the treasury, and peacefully playing golf in between. It’s now or never.

Did Musk’s alleged effort to access the government’s payment systems have Trump’s blessing? Or was he going rogue? Either scenario is bad, but one’s a little worse.

Crazy move.

According to AP, the US CDC ordered to immediately halt all collaboration with WHO and U.S. public health officials caught off guard by sudden directive.

No way this helps anyone.

not only that - he has already suspended public communications from the health agencies tracking the bird flu epidemic!
it’s very funny in a cosmic sort of way that immediately after winning an election based on grocery prices after totally bungling the pandemic response, Trump sees the highest egg prices on record because of a pandemic. Mandate of Heaven type stuff.
