We should consider the possibility that when Trump and Musk call Zelenskyy a dictator, it is a term of approval. Minerals deal brewing?

Don't like the way Trump is tearing up rules, agencies, norms? Neither do I, but it's exactly that kind of radical approach that the right fear from the left, except they fear that the left want to go after the nuclear family, religion, the car, urban sprawl, plane travel, gas stoves, etc.

Still waiting for Ron DeSantis to swoop in and seize the GOP nomination for Prez, as MANY predicted he would.

Who believes Trump? His illiterate base.

Apart from the issue of traffic and the mostly UK only issue of affordability of housing near the workplace, I have no idea why people with flexible working are choosing to work at home for more than 1 day a week. I would always choose to see other people at work, in person.

The UK centrist attitude to every piece of bad news (which is 95% of all news) is to think "how is this, or can this be, linked to Brexit." Price of chocolate went up? Nothing to do with water management and climate change. It was Brexit! etc. etc. but for EVERYTHING

Lots of great people served in the Biden administration and did good work. But Biden and his family landed us in this mess with selfish decisions and deceptive behavior and I’m mad about it. I want to vote for someone in 2028 who’ll say that. www.slowboring.com/p/throw-bide...

Excellent @ericlevitz.bsky.social piece urging Democrats not to back themselves into just randomly defending everything that's done under the banner of "DEI." www.vox.com/politics/399...

Musk calmly announcing DOGE cuts with full governmental decorum

Part of me thinks that Trump's foreign policy on Europe is so reckless that he is trying to get Putin to do something that rapidly becomes catastrophic for the Russian army, like invading Lithuania. Given the military response it would elicit, it would be.

There's probably no long-term thinking going on. If Trump turns the presidency into a role of absolute power, then when a Democrat wins it, they will be able to Denmarkize the US in short order, with the superrich in no position to oppose their new confiscatory tax rates.

Bloomberg writer correctly calls #TrumpTariffs using a sledgehammer to crack a peanut. But the point of his rhetoric is not to crack the nut. It's to get everyone affirming that his sledgehammer is "impressively large", "the best" and "awesomely powerful" Does this remind you of anything?

You know how long even easy building projects take, but this one? Obviously it will take 10 years at least. (Berlin is still a building site and they started 35 years ago!) That's very telling, in that it tells us Trump plans to still be in office in 2035, when Gaza might be "re-constructed"

If Trump's support base will believe that he has achieved anything he claims to have achieved, then he really doesn't need to achieve anything. All signs point to their believing anything he says, right up to e not equalling mc². Completely post-truth #TrumpTariffs

Karoline Leavitt should be asked about the administration's hiring of unqualified lackeys. "What about the braindead slobs?" "They'll be given cushy jobs" Hiring on loyalty and sycophancy instead of ability never ends well.

When McGovern ran in vain against Nixon in '72 it was because Nixon's agents had sabotaged Muskie, Wallace, Jackson etc. Dems today seem determined to run a doomed McGovern-style candidate in 2028, without the GOP needing to bother with Watergate ratfucking.
