Ukraine thrown under the bus so Venezuela could be staged. One man removed, the system left intact. Russia appeased. American kleptocracy strengthened. Oil barons satisfied. Democracy sidelined. Nothing changed but the headlines. All optics. Heavy, hollow, transactional Republican leadership.
1/ Trump’s own rhetoric and reported posture point toward a hemispheric dominance doctrine, explicitly framed in revived Monroe Doctrine terms (“Donroe Doctrine”).

USPS quietly changed its postmark rules — mail is no longer dated when you drop it off. The “official” date is when it hits automated sorting — sometimes days later
Which could have major implications for mail in voting — it’s a clever way to disenfranchise voters that’s going largely overlooked

So the question “what, like you think he cares?” is inapposite. The question is whether *you* care. I think you should, which is why I bother.

I have met Susie. She could not have been more pleasant to me in person. It was also *palpably* obvious that she is Evil. I don’t mean that in a small way of she’s mean or devious, but a big one: she’d wear your skin as a suit in a nanosecond if it was chilly outside and never think of it again.

Donald Trump has instructed the entire FBI to prioritize finding ways to bring charges against anti-fascists and other activists. Any FBI agent who wants to advance his career now has an incentive to set up naïve kids for an entrapment case.
Please read about entrapment and how to protect yourself.
