New in PN: Trump's ugly Thanksgiving meltdown

"Trump is always vile & erratic, but spewing slurs on Thanksgiving feels like an escalation even for him. It suggests he’s desperate to find his Reichstag Fire — a violent incident he can use to rally his supporters & as an excuse to target his foes."

Here's a pesky question:

How much has this absurd show of "military might" cost American taxpayers so far? The bombings? The societal infiltration by the CIA? This farcical, "We'll pretend it's about drugs"...

All for Trump's lust for their oil reserves.

They're not hiding it, folks—straight up neo-Nazi advertising, from the font to the language to the 11 stars for the Confederacy. Then you have the DHS openly using white nationalist language of "remigrate", which means ethnic cleansing.

We’re the only country that lets the gun lobby write the laws and then pretends to be shocked when children end up in coffins.
