Guaranteeing impunity for violent insurrections against the government, as long as you are on the side of the president. https://www.nytimes.com/2025/01/20/us/politics/trump-pardons-jan-6.html?smid=nytcore-ios-share&referringSource=articleShare

Ordering Americans to raise global temperatures, burn California and Arizona and sink Florida even faster. https://www.nytimes.com/2025/01/20/climate/trump-paris-agreement-climate.html?smid=nytcore-ios-share&referringSource=articleShare

Helping the next global pandemic to kill even more millions of Americans. Maybe it’s bird flu, it could be here already https://www.nytimes.com/2025/01/20/us/politics/trump-world-health-organization.html?smid=nytcore-ios-share&referringSource=articleShare

Marburg disease is brewing in Tanzania. Let's hope they are able to contain it, otherwise we are fucked.

Helping the Chinese government flood Americans’ brains with garbage, as long as its pro-Trump garbage—he can pull the plug whenever he likes https://www.nytimes.com/2025/01/20/technology/trump-tiktok-ban-delay-executive-order.html?smid=nytcore-ios-share&referringSource=articleShare

Amusing that he’s delayed the tariffs until “maybe February 1” though. Wouldn’t be surprised if they’re a fraction of what he promised, or don’t happen at all. https://www.nytimes.com/2025/01/20/us/politics/trump-tariffs-executive-order.html?smid=nytcore-ios-share&referringSource=articleShare

He has huge negotiation leverage through these tariff threats. Dozens of governments are pandering and grovelling to him. He will spin it out until he gets what he wants.

He’s asking for the bribe from importers. Trump has unchecked power to impose tariffs and, although magical tariffs is one of his two policy beliefs, is going to take the money.

He cites the W.H.O.'s "mishandling of the COVID-19 pandemic" as one of the reasons for withdrawing. The guy who thought injecting bleach was a good idea...
