Hard to conclude anything else other than that he really is a Russian asset executing Putin’s plans to destroy America. www.nytimes.com/2025/01/28/u...

Every spare firefighter in the United States needs to head to SoCal NOW.

President Yoon is doing a huge favor to liberal democracies like the United States. A (hopefully momentary) demonstration of what happens when a reactionary, isolated and weakened executive fails at his job and tries to scapegoat the democratic order itself. We should watch and learn.
