A massive institutional failure right across the board. Cowardice.
A massive institutional failure right across the board. Cowardice.
Voters have endangered democracy by voting in lackeys. Trump has merely taken advantage of voters' not giving a shit about democracy.
Cowardice across institutions from all walks of life on a scale I truly would have thought utterly impossible.
PRITZKER: “.. The President of the United States is threatening to go to war with an American city. This is not a joke.” @nbcnews.com www.nbcnews.com/politics/don...
Shocking. Who could have foreseen this?
Important to remember that everyone involved in renaming the DoD to the Department of War is afraid to take the subway.
Delusion. On a grand scale.
Destructive capitalism.
Real George Orwell 1984 shit.
Real '1984' shit...
So pretty! #roadporn
I have no clue what Nichols is rambling on about. Too cute by half. All you need is 'eyes to see' and 'ears to hear'.
RFK Jr. lied to Congress in order to get confirmed. Why is he still Secretary? Why isn't he in a jail cell? Can anybody lie to Congress under oath and just brush it off like that? So many questions...
RFK Jr. is committing evil.
So, if they're not passing on the increase in costs to consumers, then the corporations are eating them. Trump and the GOP are taxing companies. Do they know about this? 🥳
Caligula only *said* his horse could make a good Senator. These groveling clowns have made an underwear model into Athena. 🤡
As Billy Connolly puts it, "Jesus suffering fuck!"
Winning!!
Trump's brain is rice pudding.
This guy is rotting in front of the eyes of the world... who's he kidding.
He couldn't find his ass with both hands and a flashlight...
NATO membership now. Article #5 now. If the US isn't on side, NATO should go it alone.
Colossal mistake for Ukraine to have given up its nukes. Second only to Ukraine's mistake of accepting security guarantees from the US and Russia.
Why would anyone be surprised that this dog's breakfast of economic, domestic, and foreign policy is cratering consumer sentiment, and - indeed - the economy?
Clean-up in Aisle 3!
🤡
It's the 'stag' in stagflation...
When will the average Joe get tired of winning so much? One wonders.
If you think what is happening in Gaza is OK, I don't care if you're Jewish, Muslim, or Zoroastrian. You've lost your sense of humanity.
For them to embellish the story in such a preposterous fashion means they are definitely covering up for something personally embarrassing/compromising. As if Rudy had any reputation left worth trying to preserve.
This is positively Homeric.

The President of Portugal Marcelo Rebelo de Sousa called the orange felon a Russian asset in a live televised speech. Well done, this is how you do it. 👏
Trump - the energizer of dictators, tyrants, and thugs
And, incidentally, so will the rest of the world...
Of course, inflation will surge. Prices will increase across the board, and the average American will get hammered, while economic stagnation bites deeply.
That Trump and Trumpism are fascist doesn’t explain the sheer vandalism of unleashing mass murdering mayhem via RFK to replace medical/scientific institutions of immense value and prestige with medieval peasant superstitions. That is a criminal madness facilitated by but above and beyond fascism.
We have not heard or seen from Donald since Wednesday. The guy who is so psychologically broken he needs to be the center of attention always is voluntarily away from the limelight? No way. Not a chance.
Miller has gone from brown-shirt to brown suit. How perfect.
And atomic bombs ...
Oink, oink Joni...
Guess it's Joni's turn to squeal now...
It appears the man is an IV pin cushion.
Sorry to say, but this market is in full "irrational exuberance" mode.
Trump and his gang are destroying what has made America great.
Clown show. Except this clown show is not funny. It's quite depressing, actually.
🤡
Why does this man, the duly elected President of the United States of America, need to demonstrate his inadequacies multiple times every single goddam day? Why?
Interesting nugget in Lisa Cook's lawsuit against Donald Trump: The entire Fed Board, and Jay Powell, in their respective professional capacities are also defendants. It looks like she's doing that because the relief that she seeks includes restraining the Fed Board from terminating her.
“.. democracy often erodes slowly at first .. But with each concession, autocrats become bolder.. and reversal becomes harder. Responses that, early on, can feel pragmatic—waiting it out, remaining silent, cutting a deal—only embolden ..” @dziblatt.bsky.social www.foreignaffairs.com/germany/hitl...
The worst mistake the non-Fascist legislators in Italian parliament made was to withdraw from parliament in 1924 in protest. This left the Fascists with an open playing field.
People can feel it....like when animals sense an imminent earthquake.
There is no bra in the world big enough to hold this boob.
Why don't they just fellate him on live TV? May as well...
Destructive/nihilistic capitalism hard at work.
....Trump: An embarrassment to Tinpot dictators the world over ...
My heart pumps piss for Russia...
Looks like a pre-cursor to debt repudiation or outright bankruptcy.
Perhaps - just perhaps - this iteration of America is not much of a friend to anyone. This is not a road to success...it is the road to irrelevance.
Guess they *couldn't* indict a ham sandwich ...
When does @jaketapper.bsky.social 's book on Trump come out?
We're all human...we're all flawed... but some of us are just plain awful ...
Good.
Chi?
Fun fact: Fascism (invented by the Italians) was also known as "corporatism" and was a core tenet of Mussolini's fascism.
E si, perche Zelensky non c'è stato all ricatto "dammi prove (false) contro Biden, se no, non ti do le armi gia promesse dal Congress".
Taking a 10% interest in a company is antithetical to the American way, free-market capitalism, and to the health of the nation.
😪
😳
😳
🔥
I just can't get used to the idea of America rolling over like this... Truly sad to live through this.
This moment represents a colossal collapse of American journalism, lawmakers, business leaders, Institutions, and citizens in the face of an existential threat to America. This is desperately sad to see ...
Now do Trump.
Looks like bruising from daily IV
They are dense

Genocide.
Fascism/gangsterism in full swing...
Nutlick....has a certain "je ne sais quoi".
Endlessly credulous about the pretextual actions of an authoritarian. It's not about mortgages. It's not about antisemitism. It's not about crime.
Yet another damaging and dangerous blurring of the line and the law to give this kind of political derision in the presence of troops. Secretary of Defense should be preventing it, instead is encouraging it.
🤣🤣
@morningjoe-msnbc.bsky.social Thought you'd like to read a counterpoint to your asserting that Trump has the cards. www.theatlantic.com/ideas/archiv...
Navarro has zero credibility. As an economics advisor, he makes a good pizza delivery boy. He knows nothing.
The style is called "Middle East Strongman Dreck"
Ignorant 🤡

Scaramucci is right: Lutnick needs a ground wire up his ass...
Netanyahu e un criminale di guerra. Andrebbe processato.
Stupidity, inanity, and dishonesty always cost. Bigly.
Donald claims all sorts of stupid fake shit
Le garanzie valeranno quanto le garanzie date all'Ucraina per abbandonare le loro armi nucleari. Un bel tubo.
Yes
This guy is one compromised dog's breakfast.
