Whatever dam of despair that kept so many Americans quiet or despondent has now broken. People flooded the streets with a popular and reasonable demand: Stop destroying the country. Trump is unlikely to listen but the many powerful people who have folded or stayed silent or supported him? They might

Today, at the apparent behest of Assad-acolyte Tulsi Gabbard, the US derecognized the government of Syria at the UN. And today in the Oval Office, Trump pronounced that Syria was again a satrapy of Erdoğan's greater Ottoman Empire. These are the weirdest foreign policy moves in decades.
Trump: "I said that to [Erdogan]. I said 'Congratulations, you've been able to do what nobody has been able to in 2,000 years. You've taken over Syria' ... you gotta hand it to him."

Two U.S. officials tell WSJ that Trump national security adviser Mike Waltz has created and hosted *multiple* other sensitive national-security conversations on Signal with cabinet members — including separate threads on how to broker peace between Russia and Ukraine as well as military operations.
Mike Waltz Is Losing Support Inside the White House
Although Trump decided not to fire his national security adviser over the Signal group chat, Waltz’s position is tenuous, officials say.

Funny. Not so funny.

It is a complete endrun around national security channels to use an insecure device and app to discuss highly classified, imminent military plans.

The Trump Administration Accidentally Texted Me Its War Plans
U.S. national-security leaders included me in a group chat about upcoming military strikes in Yemen. I didn’t think it could be real. Then the bombs started falling.

If you enjoy fearless reporting with a side of dark humor, keep us caffeinated. Because if we go down, all you’ll be left with is the mainstream media’s idea of “news”—and nobody deserves that.
