I may never be able to forgive America. This could only happen in a sick, sick country.

Any country would be a fool to trust America ever again. I don’t see a way back unless the Republican Party is vaporised.

The United States of America, born under the reign of a mad tyrannical king, appears to be intent on completing its story arc by going out the same way it came in.

We know where the US stands. It is now de-facto pro-Putin. We know where Britain stands. It will contribute troops to prevent Russian aggression. We need to know where Europe stands.

This is what should be on every front page right now. What's happening in the US right now is an illegal power grab by a private citizen. IT'S A COUP. It's a digital coup. It's Musk who's leading it. The consequences are terrifying. And it's coming for us next. 1/ open.substack.com/pub/broligar...

I remember in November people saying that “Trump is a threat to democracy” was not a winning message for the Harris campaign but it was at least 100% true and perhaps we can judge American voters a little for not caring

Here is something from a contract lawyer's perspective. Trump is not "transactional", for he will never be bound. Indeed, he is anti-transactional. A transaction is an exchange, an agreement. But for Trump the agreement is only there to be repudiated, so to gain leverage for his next demand.

Can’t believe the updates from The US… Two emotionally detached narcissists engineering what appears to be a mass looting of the country Triggering culture, tariff and diplomatic wars …while rolling out orders that will hurt the pockets, safety & health of its citizens.

Someone’s attitude towards transgender people is an astonishingly reliable indicator of an upcoming lurch into absurd right wing lunacy. As a leading metric it’s almost as reliable as being outed as a predatory creep.

Basically: A gang of masked men, torches in one hand and jerry cans in the other, are merrily strolling through vital government departments, stuffing sensitive documents into duffle bags or chucking them out of open windows. The enXitterfication of the US government begins.

This is truly dark and horrifying and sad. How did we get to this place. How did we let down previous generations of civil rights fighters so completely. So utterly. What a sad, disgusting failure. www.motherjones.com/politics/202...

At 10:00 AM ET today, RFK Jr.'s confirmation hearing for Head of HHS will take place. You can stream it from PBS. I'll be live-skeeting about it when I can. Little doubt he will eventually be confirmed. Hope to be proven wrong. www.youtube.com/watch?v=4JzV...

This is immensely dangerous anti-science nonsense that lionizes someone's personal experience with a drug to determine if it "works" or not. It's regressive, small-minded and incredibly stupid. (P.S.: right-to-try laws already exist for terminal illnesses. That's not an argument!)

One thing that is just absolutely incredible is that after Elon did his Nazi salute, a bunch of apologists tried to defend him by making reference to... ... ... the photo ops he did as damage control FOR HIS PREVIOUS ANTISEMITIC INCIDENT.

Trump's playbook for America is exactly the same as Elon's for Twitter. Be prepared for federal services to start responding to your inquiries with poop emojis.
