Good set of comments on Amb Waltz's remarks. In summation, we have a UN ambassador who doesn't believe in the UN Charter, international law, or diplomacy. Fine. But why, then, is he UN ambassador? Because Trump fired him as NSA and this was a good bye present, apparently.
One of most remarkable US presentations at UN Security Council I've ever seen.
- No reference to UN Charter legal justification
- Claims Panama as precedent (which the UN condemned)
- Energy reserves ⤵️ as justification is illegal
- Sharp contrast with US Ambassador Pickering presentation in 1989

The federal government is completely controlled by Trump. The Supreme Court is dominated by his appointees and fascists. Both parts of Congress are controlled by MAGA. Nothing can be done at the moment. We must turn out the vote this year or things will only get worse.

Right.
If you want a good explanation of why the American system of government worked well enough for 200 years and then suddenly stopped, it's because Republicans in Congress suddenly started letting their partisan interests COMPLETELY override their institutional interests
