The Russian-backed government of Serbia under pressure tonight as massive protests fill the center of Belgrade.
It seems that only the US hasn't gotten the note that Russian-backed fascism just isn't cool anymore.
Donald Trump has disgraced the United States of America in countless ways since he first entered political life ten years ago.
But he had never disgraced the nation as badly as he did today.
He has brought shame on this country to an extent I had never thought possible. And he has only just begun.
The President is a truly demented man.
The comments under Trump’s AI generated Gaza video posted to his own platform are nearly all critical…
So Trump never really had an issue with criminals entering the country; he just wanted to skim a little off the top when they did. bsky.app/profile/atru...
Such a familiar story. We have completely inverted our morality.
Rather than act according to the good, we now believe we ARE the good.
Our hyper-insular culture has created a nation that believes the only good is for it to have its way, no matter what it may be according to one man’s whim.
Whomever thought Chris Christie should be invited needs to become better acquainted with him.
Pretty sure most of the civ-mil scholars are speaking pretty damn plainly about this stuff.
We may quibble on coup vs autogolpe, but we are ringing the alarm bells.
Not sure more than a few are doing discourse analysis to assess if there is a crisis.
Here’s a good start- remove the people responsible for gutting our government and shredding the separation of powers doctrine.
Till that happens, all other conversations are purely academic and meaningless.
Anyone that still supports Trump simply cannot be convinced of Trump’s moral and philosophical vacuousness.
This is about seizing and maintaining power to mollify the insatiable insecurities of a raging malignant narcissist.
We need to convince the few left who are willing to listen AND act.
Demented. The man is literally demented and so are the majority of his supporters.
If only millions of people had warned him about who Trump really is.
How has the world evolved to a place where the feckless and morally confused UN finds itself supporting Ukraine and the US is backing its sworn enemy instead of allies?
Rarely has so much ignorance & ahistorical BS been crammed into a single tweet. I know JD Vance & Donald Trump are busy surrendering to a KGB butcher, abandoning the cause of freedom, & destroying the security of America & her allies, but they'd do well to spend some time actually studying history.
Americans are too cynical to care. And that will be our end. Its sound will be the opposition’s whimpers of learned helplessness as the majority of Americans simply do not understand or care to know the truth.
Neville Chamberlain, to do him justice, never amplified under his own byline Hitler's propaganda against the Czechs
The Psychology of Populism describes something similar as the psychology and politics of relative deprivation.
Nobody is prepared to fill the void created by the US.
It’s a cult.
We have thoroughly destroyed every norm that makes self-governance practicable.
Some by complacent neglect. Others were killed quietly in the dark and nobody noticed.
And some are being slain in light of day by the very man who swore an oath to uphold history’s best attempt to codify those norms.
Absolutely true.
Of course Trump happens to be quoting a lien from a movie produced by the Russian government in 1980.
Of course.
I’m having great difficulty right now seeing how our political system doesn’t devolve into violence.
At the risk of sounding repetitive, because some people still haven’t realized it, the Republic is falling.
America is committing suicide in real-time to become something else. Not something new, but old and evil.
Not even Rome fell so far, so fast.
Reminder:
trump is a convicted felon who was also convicted of sexual assault.
Republicans are fine with that.
Trump is Mussolini to Putin’s Hitler.
Same seats, 80 years apart.
I have an eery feeling our UK brethren will be called for a reprisal.
I hope they find another Churchill. The world may need him or her.
Probably two years away??

The blood of Ukraine will now be on Donald Trump’s hands.

The shining city on a hill is no more.
So, friends, we have finally found some "waste, fraud, and abuse" in the federal government. $400m worth, and it is from Musk himself. He's just outright stealing money now.
Corruption and malfeasance perpetrated by the President himself. Both of them actually.
