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."

Really love how both in February and now Trudeau gave some of the most emotional speeches of his career while Sheinbaum has just said something like "I have instructed my ministers to implement the Rabid Dog Contingency"

At the same time that the entire Republican Party is complaining that Zelenskyy lacked sufficient respect, Trump is calling the leader of our neighbor and longest ally "Governor" and his Cabinet are doing shit like this.

Trudeau says in a statement that CBP seizures of fentanyl at the US-Canadian border fell to “0.03 pounds” in January, which is less than half an ounce. Trump is throwing a bomb at our economy and starting a trade war with our closest ally for the stated reason of fentanyl smuggling. Half an ounce!

this is going to be a sort of insane recession because usually what causes these things is all complicated and difficult to sort out and even harder to fix, but in this case it's very clearly one guy pushing the "fuck everything" button. gonna find out if there's a "unfuck everything" button ig

Regardless your specific view on this, consider what it means for the Trump/Vance administration to halt aid to Ukraine, but then in the same week rush $4 billion more to Israel as it blocks all aid into Gaza

Mary's right - at this point his moment has long passed, he's a political irrelevance doing it for some shot at attention. And it's not just politicians who should ignore him - the media should too. He only wants a platform!

@carlkinsella.bsky.social made a really important point on @louisemcsharry.bsky.social’s Catch up podcast this morning, about how the cynicism in US politics emboldens our own politicians to pull this crap. The influence can’t be overstated or ignored and if they get with it, what next?

There's a timeline where Prime Minister Farage is casting a jaundiced eye over the Irish Republic and considering a very different kind of reunification.

I think Trump-as-Putin-asset is not unfounded but clearly functions for many as a story to tell themselves that preserves American innocence. Trump does not need to be controlled by Putin to still benefit Putin because both are authoritarian illiberal nationalists

one of my favorite running storylines in culture is that people treat JAMES BOND as a franchise full of classic, beloved movies that has only recently lost its way, when the reality is that literally almost every single movie in the history of the franchise sucks.

We're two months into the collapse of the international order and FF/FG have spent it erecting a fence for Michael Lowry to sit on then whining when everyone hates it.

Kinda fascinating how Trump's awfulness is rehabilitating both Trudeau and Macron who were widely disliked if not straight up hated about a month ago.
