100% correct. The US will remain unreliable as long as it teeters between multicultural democratic governance and reactionary White supremacist fascism. And the world has no choice but to respond accordingly. Americans need to understand that choosing to be our worst selves has enormous consequences
ppl getting angry at this but he's talking alliances and he's 100% right- you cannot trust a country where every 4 yrs the foreign policy does a complete 180 & tears up treaties and reneges on deals and withholds payments because some sheep farmers in Wisconsin think too many black women have jobs
America is over. There is no coming back from this.

If we're lucky maybe we claw back some small-l liberalism for our daily lives. But even that might be too much to hope for.

The rest of the world has to move on from us.

They now know that the American people can't be trusted.

They're right.

They don't owe this Republic a fucking thing. They tried to give this country Healthcare, a better environment, better standards across all areas of life. You and the mealy mouthed MSM let perfect be the enemy of good and NEVER gave them credit for what they did do. Kiss their ass
Obama and Biden may think they are honoring the office of the presidency by keeping quiet at a moment like this — if so that’s just preening vanity — they owe it to the office and to the Republic that until last month it served to speak up loudly and clearly and without relent.

Hiring Daniel Penny is part of many deliberate signals being sent out. It's a signal being directed at white men who are comfortable with oppressing and harming people who aren't white men. It assures these people that if they will have the greatest advantages in the society that is being built.

The president of the United States is loudly, publicly calling for the ethnic cleansing of Palestinians. While the guy genociding them sits next to him and smiles. I have never seen anything this openly evil in my whole life.

Will any western media report this for what it is?

It’s also an example for everyone who believes there’s nothing wrong with any one person or company having so much money. No individual, especially non-elected should ever be able to BUY their way into this kind of power.
Kind of wild watching white man with no government authority completely take over and know other white people will wring their hands

it was never about rationality or civility

it's about people not believing we are worth fighting for

I'm sorry, but "they took over the whole federal payments system, fired the career staff, and won't let anybody see what they're doing" is not a situation in which you wait for more information. It's a situation in which you assume the worst. There's no explanation for it other than rampant crimes.

And so are the Repubs who are the majority. They aren't even blinking, probably because there's only smoke for one side.
Meanwhile, Dems are sitting on their hands.

I can’t believe this is being done again. This is the EXACT argument the Tea Party made 10 years ago.

It was a lie then, and it’s a lie now. I don’t understand DEMOCRATIC strategist parroting this nonsense.

It feels like we’re in the twilight zone.
Folks are trying to distance themselves by saying “I didn’t vote for all this. I just wanted cheaper groceries,” like the fact that they were willing to trade people’s basic human rights for the possibility of cheaper groceries isn’t a major character flaw.

Trump, Vance, Hegseth, and Combs all said they were briefed on the collision, so they all knew about this internal FAA report when they went on TV to blame minorities for the crash.

Today is *not* a “peaceful transfer of power.” It’s the completion of a violent coup attempt that began this morning four years ago. Yes, Trump won the ‘24 election; but he was only able to run because we failed to fully confront the fact of that violent coup attempt.

Republicans have been gaslit to believe that the events of January 6th was lawful and peaceful.

Democrats have been gaslit to believe that everything possible was done after the events to hold those responsible accountable.

Lies are the foundation of democracy theater.

Some see the electoral vote count this January 6th and the coming inauguration as a peaceful transfer of power respectful of the norms of democracy, but what they really are is a testament to the failure of our institutions and an abdication by those with power to hold others with power to account.

6. Whatever the Democrats do, it won’t be due to GOP malfeasance. It will be due to the Democrats’ willingness to fight. Laughing isn’t fighting. Indeed, it can be a cop out. It can be a way to feel morally superior.

9. The only way for people to know what’s going on is for the Democrats to tell them. They cannot presume that facts and truth will speak for themselves. They cannot presume that the criminal intent of the Republicans will be so obvious it goes without saying.
