On Thursday the richest man in the world called his ex-bestie a pedophile. On Friday that pedophile surged ICE raids in California. On Saturday that pedophile deployed troops against Americans. Pretty sus timing!

So, that new give Putin all he wants "peace" plan Rubio floated this week? It appears to be illegal under a 2022 American law Rubio himself helped pass. www.politico.com/newsletters/...

The Plan 1) Economic sneak attack on allies and partners. 2) Threaten to invade Danish territory and to annex Canada. 3) Sell out Ukraine to Putin, wreck NATO. 4) Permanent 10% tariff on former friends. 5) Surprise and hurt that nobody wants to help Trump find a face-saving exit

They have identified the core flaw in the Trump tariff plan: not enough uncertainty. Need more uncertainty, a lot more.

Just a legal historian here reminding everyone that “high crimes and misdemeanors” do not need to be felonies. They can include political abuses and stupidity, like, hypothetically, destroying the economy and wiping out people’s savings in 3 days.

I'm watching CNBC. These anchors are so angry. They really didn't believe he'd do it. They're actually just now, 10 years into this shit, realizing he's a maniac hellbent on revenge and there's no grand plan for the markets. Better late than never but holy shit.

Trump has ample warning from financial markets of how harmful his tariffs will be. He is proceeding anyway, because the only way he can feel alive and fulfilled is by intentionally hurting people.

Pritzker: The question I ask is: if you’re willing to hand the keys to Europe over to Putin, what’s next? How does the US retain its leadership in the world when he’s essentially retreating to our own borders? He’s even made enemies of the Canadians—I can’t imagine anything more telling than that.

French Senator Claude Malhuret: "Washington has become Nero’s court, with an incendiary emperor, submissive courtiers and a jester high on ketamine... We were at war with a dictator, we are now at war with a dictator backed by a traitor."

A lot of very rich people are still wrongly assuming that they will be fully insulated from the deep social dysfunction, economic collapse, and rising authoritarianism being ushered in by Trump. They won’t—but it currently looks like they’re willing to find that out the hard way.

Generations of American patriots, from our revolution onward, have fought for the principles Zelenskyy is risking his life to defend. But today, Donald Trump and JD Vance attacked Zelenskyy and pressured him to surrender the freedom of his people to the KGB war criminal who invaded Ukraine.

This scrum of pot-bellied, sunken-chested betas trying to bully an all-black clad badass Eastern European wasteland survivor while dressed like Men’s Wearhouse mannequins is peak cinema.

Elon Musk to reporter: “We post our actions to the DOGE website. All of our actions are maximally transparent. I don’t know of a case where an organization has been more transparent than the DOGE organization.” Here’s the doge.gov website IN ITS ENTIRETY. It’s literally a blank page!

I understand that trying to convince someone who has spent their entire life constructing insane conspiracy theories—built on a foundation of staggering ignorance mixed with an astronomical level of self-importance—is pointless.

Clip and save. The red ones are the states that elected Trump. If you absolutely have to go to the states, don't spend in the red ones. #cdnpoli

Every single thing that everybody suddenly wants to do in Greenland - mine for minerals! use shipping lanes! set up bases! - can be done right now, while Greenland is part of Denmark. The discussion of "occupying" Greenland is just a pointless piece of aggression towards an ally.

I’m going to say something historians rarely say. We haven’t been here before. We haven’t had a near-authoritarian takeover of our government. Admittedly, we don’t know what comes next. There’s a wide array of options. But know that in the US, this is new ground. And none of this is normal.
