Tom Friedman: "This is a total perversion of U.S. foreign policy practiced by every president since World War I. My fellow Americans, we are in completely uncharted waters, led by a president, who — well, I cannot believe he is a Russian agent, but he sure plays one on TV.​"

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.

This country has seen some bad moments in the 61 years, 5 months, 16 days I’ve been on this Earth. But it has never, ever before come close to the supertoxic level of stupidity, mendacity, narcissism, nihilism, and moral apathy that threaten to destroy it today.

He will burn down whatever he can, however he can Our systems of governance, rule of law, global alliances, even the Constitution. Consumed by vengeance and greed, he is the greatest threat to our Republic since its founding. We must meet this moment with the force of a thousand suns. Or perish.

"In other countries, this would be called 'an authoritarian coup.' In America, mealy-mouthed officials call our transition into a mafia state 'deeply troubling' and do little to curb the damage." -- HIDING IN PLAIN SIGHT (2020)

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!

😮🤬

Want to know what evil is? It's having $400 billion—and being projected to earn $600 billion more over the next 4 years—and knowing that you could awaken every morning for a month and point to a country and say I will end all hunger THERE without denting your lifestyle at all and instead you do this

Any news outlet reporting Mexico conceded anything to Trump to get him to delay tariffs has not done its homework. Trump boasts he got Mexico to commit to stationing 10K troops at our border. Apparently he didn't realize Mexico already has 15K troops deployed there prami.ibero.mx/informes-y-i...

These are the clowns Congress refuses to stop.

Dear Leaders of the Free World, Fight him at every turn. Make his life miserable. Expose his ignorance and sociopathy. Oppose and condemn and marginalize him. The decent people of this nation are not with him. We stand with you. johnpavlovitz.substack.com/p/dear-world...

This is a hostile takeover of the federal government by a private citizen of unlimited means with no restrictions and no transparency. Welcome to the Deep State www.reuters.com/world/us/mus...

If you are reading this from a country that is still a democracy: Regulate all social media now. Make platforms legally responsible for the content they platform. 70 million people here think Trump was innocent & had an election stolen from him

They are ALL guilty... never forget about his enablers.

Hitler-loving white nationalist Nick Fuentes on Elon Musk's salute: "That was a straight up like 'Sieg Heil',' like loving Hitler energy."

This isn’t a “seems like” or “appears to be” event… It was intentional, deliberate, and unequivocal.

Biden: "I want to warn the country of some things that give me great concern. That's the dangerous concentration of power in the hands of a very few ultra wealthy people and the dangerous consequences if their abuse of power is left unchecked. Today, an oligarchy is taking shape"

It seems 2025 will be very unsubtle with its metaphors and foreshadowing.

Only in America where the 400 richest people are worth a record $5.4 trillion, each has at least $3.3 billion and a dozen have $100 billion-plus fortunes—and an electorate largely comprised of people struggling to make ends meet votes in this crowd who will make themselves even richer.

John Roberts: peaceful protests targeting me are bad. Also John Roberts: If the President wants to sic violent protests on a co-equal branch of government, that's totally cool.

Happy New Year! 🎉🥳🎊

Good morning and Happy Tuesday to everyone who agrees that President Carter was the kind of man who lived an exemplary life as a Christian, doing good for others, while others just hurt people and sell expensive Bibles. In a world of Felon 47s, be a Jimmy Carter.🙏
