From an operational security perspective, this is the highest level of fuckup imaginable. These people cannot keep America safe.
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.

As a side note, Trump exists in a world in which it’s always 1987, Musk exists in a world in which it’s always 2011.
yes, as in he's not as good as the Jon Favreau who created Iron Man, who Elon believes himself to be

Trudeau: "I want to speak first directly to the American people. We don't want this. We want to work with you as a friend and ally. We don't want to see you hurt either. But your government has chosen to do this to you. As of this morning, markets are down and inflation is set to rise dramatically."

Folks, I'm going to stop reading the news and go read about something more cheerful, like the Battle of Saipan.

1. Throughout my adult life, I've disagreed with Presidents and policymakers about the means of securing U.S. security and prosperity. And that's to be reasonably expected, because no one has a crystal ball or complete understanding of a situation.

People who voted Trump out of anger at high prices will get this as their reward: big price increases on vast array of goods from our 2 biggest trading partners. Plus economic damage from retaliation.
Trump posts that he will implement a 25% tariff on all products coming into the United States from Mexico and Canada his first day in office and will add an additional 10% tariff above current levels on products imported from China.
Buckle up for higher prices!
