Just watching the President of the United States willingly tanking the world economic order because he's a big stupid fucking idiot who doesn't know anything and he's surrounded by cowards and idiots who are afraid to tell him anything he doesn't want to hear.

Presidential desires for territorial expansion... only this time its the US President.
REPORTER: The president said today, 'We have to have Greenland.' By being here today, are you also conveying that message?

Two friends in gov tell me this is common practice in this admin as Trump & Co try to circumvent the Presidential Records Act and FOIA requests.

This is the wildest story I have literally ever read. In any normal circumstances, a half-dozen senior officials would be forced to resign over this—starting with the National Security Advisor. And I doubt anyone will face any accountability at all.
In 25 years of covering national security, I’ve never seen a story like this: Senior Trump officials discussed planning for the U.S. attack on Yemen in a Signal group--and inadvertently added the editor-in-chief of The Atlantic. www.theatlantic.com/politics/arc...

Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth disclosed war plans in a group chat that included the editor in chief of The Atlantic two hours before U.S. troops launched attacks against the Houthi militia in Yemen, the White House said. It was an extraordinary breach of U.S. national security intelligence.
