Today's Oval Office spectacle wasn't about showing strength, it was about surrendering to Putin. Trump and JD Vance have completely sold out America.

Looking forward to the new ad
@lincolnproject.us is dropping a new ad tomorrow, on January 6th, reminding Americans of everything Donald Trump wants us to forget.

The group's chief of staff @ryan-n-wiggins.bsky.social says it's designed "to remind people why we're not going to be finished with this fight."

Donald Trump’s Most Dangerous Cabinet Pick
Pete Hegseth considers himself to be at war with basically everybody to Trump’s left, and it is by no means clear that he means war metaphorically.

Kash Patel, rumored to be Trump’s main pick for FBI director, warns: “We will go out and find the conspirators, not just in government but in the media. ... we’re going to come after you... Whether it’s criminally or civilly, we’ll figure that out. But yeah, we’re putting you all on notice.”"

I never saw Trump as being strategic. So has he accidentally stumbled upon a killer cabinet, literally? Or is this an intentional act to take down the country?
As I told Wolf Blitzer here:

If you were seeking to destroy the country, the Gabbard, Gaetz, and RFK Jr. picks were exactly the ones you’d make. And that’s not surprising. Because Trump is a malignant narcissist, and malignant narcissists, subconsciously or consciously, *do* seek to destroy.

The GOP loves blaming the deficit on Social Security and Medicare. But the real culprit is giveaways to corporations and the rich.

If not for the regressive tax cuts under Bush and Trump, we would have a stable debt-to-GDP ratio.

That's one thing the GOP will never tell you.

I fear the U.S. government may actually collapse. When you look at who he’s picking, what they plan to do, who they plan to fire, how under-resourced and understaffed and perpetually anxious the remaining employees will be, how much institutional memory is being washed away, the utter lawlessness...
