Brilliant but devastating editorial in the Financial Times. “In the past 10 days, he [Trump] has all but incinerated 80 years of postwar American leadership. If you are not at the table, you are on the menu. America has turned.”

Usually I'll find someone much wiser and measured than me to help make sense of this week but it's been so batshit crazy that I can't find anyone who has written anything which helps calm me. I've reverted to beer drinking. I still can't make sense of any of it but I care slightly less now.

This is a poor headline from the BBC. The US aren't offering a "deal" - they want the minerals in return for support already given. It's straight up extortion.

So many things I'm worried and angry about, both domestic and international, made worse by the knowledge of not being able to do a damned thing about it...for now.

I adore this thread. On a day when I'm dealing with pointless questions and endless admin, this was the very escape I needed. You are all very lovely and strange folks and I'm here for exactly that.

I find it ironic (stupid, dangerous, hilarious) that Trump spent so much time trying to prove Obama was not born in US only for him to appoint someone who is de facto President and who most definitely was not born in the US.
