Düsseldorf, Germany.

January 29, 2023. It was all there for everyone to see, who cared enough to notice.

March 5, 2023.

Now that’s a headline.

"No Other Land," the Palestinian-Israeli made film showing the destruction of the occupied West Bank's Masafer Yatta by Israeli soldiers, just won the Oscar for Best Documentary. It can't get a distributor in the US. Which tells you everything about censorship in the US.

Says it all.

Donald Trump has disgraced the United States of America in countless ways since he first entered political life ten years ago. But he had never disgraced the nation as badly as he did today. He has brought shame on this country to an extent I had never thought possible. And he has only just begun.

Trump and Vance needed to create an incident to provide a justification for their pre-planned abandonment of Ukraine now, then separation from NATO in the near future. That’s what that was all about, and that was always the way a second Trump term was going to go.

Trump and Vance would NEVER, EVER, talk to Putin like that. And everyone knows it.

Trump is a disgrace to the United States and the human race.

Trump and Vance’s shameful behavior has embarrassed their country. President Zelenskyy is a hero. He should have been treated as such

Come to cases, “America First” means the United States sacrifices allies and prestige in order to help Russia win territory in a war of aggression.

To be clear: Vance and Trump blew this up on purpose. Yet another gift to Putin. Pathetic.

have said for a month that Ukraine must look to Europe and elsewhere for support. This proves it. It is time for Ukraine to do this without the US. We are no longer a country that stands by our stated values and ideals - we are now morally small, vicious, and petty.

Watching Putin’s little stooges try to bully Zelenskyy in our goddamned White House is pretty repulsive.

I despise this orange scumbag with the intensity of a thousand suns.

You first.

Putin’s lifelong dream was to somehow separate the US from NATO. But how to break up a strong alliance that stood for 80 years and continued to expand? There really was only one way to do it, he figured it out a decade ago, and played the long game. Now his guy will do it.

Acosta: He is, essentially, a part-time president who has delegated the presidency to Elon Musk. And the question folks are going to have to start asking—and I think they already are—is: What the hell did we vote for here?

Pritzker: If we don’t want to repeat history, then for god’s sake, in this moment, we better be strong enough to learn from it.

Congrats, America. We're now on Putin's side.

The root that tears apart your foundation begins as a seed of distrust, hate, and blame. The seed that grew into a dictatorship in Europe didn’t arrive overnight. It started with everyday Germans mad about inflation and looking for someone to blame.

I put America first. That’s why I see my job as serving as a press spokesman for foreign oligarchs. by Donald Trump

Anyone want to explain to me how it makes any sense that the US and Russia are trying to negotiate the end to the war in Ukraine without any sort of Ukrainian delegation?

Are people finally waking up? The real fight isn’t about bathrooms or drag queens—it’s about who holds power & at whose expense. Culture war is just a distraction, keeping working people too busy fighting each other rather than noticing who’s actually robbing us blind: billionaires—not each other!

German President Frank-Walter Steinmeier: "We must not freeze in fear, or as the English saying goes,let's not be deers caught in the headlights. It is clear that the new American administration holds a world view that is very different from our own. One that shows no regard for established rules."

this is declaring trade war on literally the entire world

This is how a democracy collapses: "A senior official at the Federal Emergency Management Agency instructed subordinates to freeze funding for a wide array of grant programs Monday, just hours after a federal judge ordered the Trump administration — for the second time — to stop such pauses."

Déjà vu all over again.

Costco, which has come out saying it supports DEI, will make no changes to its existing programs, AND pays workers a minimum of $30/hour, is up 15% YTD. Target, which announced it is ending all DEI programs and has a minimum wage of $15-$24/hour, is down over 4%. Keep voting with your wallet.

Purging dissent in the security services and giving loyalists power is something we *instantly* recognize in other contexts.

So when do we get to the point when legacy media all realizes that he really did intend to do all the crazy shit he said he was going to do during the campaign that they ignored or shrugged off because it was just Trump being Trump hyperbole?

These accidents keep happening.

Trump is gonna lose his shit when he sees this

FBI Uncovers Al-Qaeda Plot To Just Sit Back And Enjoy Collapse Of United States

You voted for a psychopath.

I know we can’t run around on fire every time Trump says something but he appears to have just announced the new US policy on Gaza which is to take ownership of it, ethnically cleanse it of the 1.8 million Palestinians there and maintain a long term ownership stake as it’s “developed.”

This is a genocidal war crime endorsed by the president of the United States

This is so good.

This is why Musk went after USAID From Watergate to Elon-gate Musk is trying to shut down the agency probing his company’s equipment — and now workers are pushing back with a longstanding privacy law. www.levernews.com/from-waterga...

“We don’t have a 4th branch of government called Elon Musk.” Thank you @raskin.house.gov

The media is failing abjectly in how it is framing what this administration is doing.

So Trump hurt America's relationship with Canada and made markets wobble all to "get" Canada to do things Canada had announced back in December in coordination with the Biden administration, do I have that right?

Eggs UP Taxes UP Gas UP RX drugs UP Dow Jones DOWN Medicare, Medicaid, Social Security, ACA, VA all on the chopping block. Trump was never going to make anyone in America's life easier. In just 2 weeks he's made life harder for everyone except his billionaire friends.
