Trump is a goddamn traitor to America. Any congressional Republican who supports him — or is afraid to stand up to him — is just as much of a traitor as Trump.

Fascism isn’t coming to America, it’s already here. We are long past the warnings of an approaching existential threat looming on the distant horizon of our story, which many of us spent the past decade imploring people not to ignore. johnpavlovitz.substack.com/p/fascism-is...

Want to go visit the national parks this year? Sorry. The reservation system is shut down, EMT personnel are gone, so don't get hurt or lost. No one can clean the bathrooms or cabins, so they'll be closed. Rangers are fired. www.sfchronicle.com/bayarea/arti...

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.

Biden & the Dems did NOTHING to protect the country from what everyone knew was coming (except for some last minute preemptive pardons). That tragic lack of imagination helped foist this catastrophe upon us. At the very least, I pray that files have been backed up somewhere for future use. Maybe.

President Zelenskyy: “At the Munich Security Conference, I emphasized that European policy must not just be promising — it must make America want to stand with a strong Europe.

What these nihilistic vandals are doing to dismantle science & medicine—generations of expertise & public service & life improving benefits—is cultural revolution level national self harm. No foreign foe could inflict such brutal damage & senseless suffering on US so fast & effectively & unresisted.

Europe can’t rely on the strength of the transatlantic relationship to help contain Russia’s threat – it must lead from the front and be the true force of support that Ukraine needs. Not just for Ukraine’s sake, but for a free and sovereign Europe.
