Something spicy & delicious as a taco has gotten under Trumplestiltkin's thin tangerine skin. Seems the master of mean, juvenile nicknames can dish them out but when directed towards him, he can't take it, angrily calling it "nasty."🤣 Good to know. (you know what to do!) 🌮🌮 🌮🌮 🌮🌮 🌮🌮 🌮🌮 🌮🌮 🌮🌮 🌮🌮 🌮

I think that is a very conservative estimate. I don't actually know anyone who is planning on holidaying in the US in the near future.

Impressive devotion to duty here from Alan, as some of you may have heard I was the early shift today waking you up to news on some tariffs being paused by a court. Honestly though, trade policy was never meant to be the 24/7 story requiring constant attention.

I don’t want to live in a world where somebody drives a car into a crowd of people who just want to celebrate their football team. And I don’t want to live in a world where the police have to specify that person is white & British to stop hotels & mosques being firebombed.

It demonstrates just how far this country has sunk into the gutter when the mob’s first concern isn’t the dead, dying or injured in Liverpool - but the ethnicity of the criminal so they can weaponise it to push a racist agenda. It is so fucking shameful. The absolute antithesis of patriotism.

Every year on Memorial Day, I share this video of French caretakers who take sand from Omaha Beach in Normandy, and scrub them into the letters to give them the gold coloring. They do this for all 9,386 US soldiers who died. France also gave us this land as American soil.

As I’ve often said, he needs the smallest circle possible because the things he expects his peons to do require ripping out one’s soul first, and not many are willing to do that with the alacrity, thoroughness or finality Trump requires. Thankfully there _isn’t_ a Karoline Leavitt under every rock.

You can only presume that Trump & his cronies make an absolute killing every time the markets balk at his latest tariff tantrum. And another one when he inevitably backs down. Jimmy Carter putting the family peanut farm in a blind trust for the duration of his Presidency feels very, very far away.
