Critical commentary and analysis of things cultural, political, and social.
Trump's tariff delusion reflects his view that, in any transaction, someone must lose. He pursued business that way and it is behind his approach to governing. He does not understand the concept of "win-win" and is miscalculating, very disastrously, with his trade war gambit.

Secretary of Defense, Pete Hegseth, leaked the war plan for an attack on Houthis in Yemen. At best, this fiasco shows how utterly incompetent and careless national security officials in the Trump Administration are. It brings us to a whole new level of “What the Fuck!”

A very unqualified Secretary of Defense, Pete Hagseth, invites Elon Musk, the King of conflicts of interest, to an information share at the Pentagon. What could possibly be wrong with that?
Congress is useless. This Administration is dangerous. This President is compromised. There is NO reason for Musk to have this level of access across our government. Our nation will rue the day we returned power to the GOP and re-elected this menace. #thepriceofeggs

Hitler was considered a loser, a joke, for much of his political career. It goes to show that even the most inept and dislikable person can succeed by channeling fear and anxiety. Of course, it all comes down crashing some day. Does this remind you of anyone today?

Journalists accurately reported that Adolf Hitler was a “Little Man” the whole world was laughing at, Timothy W. Ryback writes. It didn’t matter:
What the Press Got Wrong About Hitler
Journalists accurately reported that the führer was a “Little Man” whom the whole world was laughing at. It didn’t matter.

Sadly true and about to become much worse if the MAGA party gets its way.

The culture war is a cancer to society. This meme of Donald Trump is disrespectful, and that is the point. It is irrational to show deference to someone, even to a President, that harbors utter disrespect for everything and anyone from which he cannot derive personal benefit.

It is clear that Donald Trump is acting in his personal interests, not those of America and her allies.
