Slide with a mural depicting Trump, Xi, and Putin reads: Foreign Policy under Trump 2.0 Presentation for the Great Decisions program St. Mark Presbyterian Church, Newport Beach January 26, 2026 Dr. Erin Lockwood University of California Irvine, Dept. of Political Science @erinkaylockwood.bsky.social
I was invited to give a talk in the community last night on Trump's second-term foreign policy. I thought I'd share my slides and bullet points here too.
Un texte de @maviau.bsky.social qui met le concept de neoroyalisme (Stacie Goddard et @abenewman.bsky.social) au travail!

OPINION 💥 «Pour nos champions de l’énergie fossile, chaque événement qui perturbe le cours "normal" des choses représente une occasion d’exiger la construction d’un pipeline.»
Notre directeur @maviau.bsky.social démonte cet argumentaire dans @ledevoir.com ce matin : www.ledevoir.com/opinion/idee...
Canada needs more big thinking on public service like this by @mendelmatt.bsky.social. Tinkering around the margins with new intra-government committees isn’t going to cut it

the natsec folks can maybe sketch out the logistics of how this happens after the fact, political scientists can offer insight about what it might mean in the future, but all of this is like stumbling into an angry werewolf hanging from the ceiling in your living room, none of it should be possible
Congratulations to everyone who wrote an op-ed about how he just wants americans to eat better
Sabrina walking the dog
Sabrina Carpenter made the White House delete their fuck ass tweet.
The CEOs of both Ford and Stellantis, who are there to celebrate the rollback of vehicle emissions standards (which will drive climate change), are standing right behind Trump as he makes these racist comments.
Danielle Smith tried to sell her federal-Alberta energy deal to the UCP convention crowd: tepid applause.
She told them that this proved Canada can work well for Alberta’s interests: loud boos.
This ain’t a base that wants Smith to work with a Liberal PM on a better industrial carbon tax.
Canada budget update: A $2.7bn cut to international assistance over 5 years, or about 10-12% of the budget. Particularly focusing on global health, which is worrying because it's a core Canadian priority
Not sure we need a resurgence of polio on top of everything, but what do I know
"Pour l’année 2025, Montréal compte 4 des 10 compteurs de pistes cyclables montrant la plus grande affluence en Amérique du Nord. Si on prend un mois d’été typique, par exemple juin 2025, le REV Saint-Denis arrive au 2e rang en Amérique du Nord et au 6e rang en Europe."
In 10 years of working G7s, I've never read a G7 Development Communique like this.
No health, no education, no rights, nothing on upcoming replenishments
Instead, critical minerals, private sector infrastructure, transport, agribusiness, and energy

Today is a day when arts degrees are worthless, but the product of those degrees is so valuable it would kill an entire industry if they were made to pay for it.

Nancy Mace tweet: Time to bring back the death penalty superimposed on an image of Mr. Burns tenting his fingers as he talks to a crowd
Smithers whispers in Mr. Burns's ear
Mr. Burns pushes Smithers away
Nancy Mace tweet: We truly belive if Tyler Robinson had ever sat down across from Charlie, the great debater, the man of faith and grace he was Tyler wouldn't have pulled the trigger superimposed on an image of a chastened Mr. Burns speaking to the crowd about a different subject
This. FWIW no one seems to be listening to those of us still out here beating the drum, trying to explain and understand this stuff anyway. It's depressing how we have this *same conversation* every time. Even more depressing that I need to say "every time" because this violence is so common now.
A screenshot of a tweet from the Daily Caller, which has been reposted by Rep. Nancy Mace. The tweet reads: "'ENOUGH IS ENOUGH': Rep. Nancy Mace comments on reports of Charlie Kirk's killer allegedly being 'pro-tranny'". The tweet includes a video thumbnail showing Rep. Nancy Mace outdoors wearing sunglasses and speaking to reporters. The timestamp is 11:29 AM, September 11, 2025.
A screenshot of a tweet from Rep. Nancy Mace (@RepNancyMace). The tweet, posted at 10:36 AM on September 12, 2025, reads: "We know Charlie Kirk would want us to pray for such an evil, and lost individual like Tyler Robinson to find Jesus Christ. We will try to do the same."
Nancy Mace acting on disinformation that the shooter was trans: goes off on tirade against "trannies"
Nancy Mace when the actual shooter is a Christian white man: "he's just a poor lost boy, let us pray for him."
This is an excellent thread which through Judith Butler's notion of "grievability" captures a really important aspect of current moment: the authoritarian mourning that is demanded for some in place of the cultivation of an empathic and universal humanity.
In June, a Democratic state rep in Minnesota was murdered, and a state senator was shot.
And a couple of days later, Trump said he wouldn't phone Gov. Walz, calling him "whacked out" and "a mess"
La différence entre l'individu injurieux qui insulte à tout vent et le portrait de citoyen modèle dépeint par Dutrizac est frappante. Rien de hasardeux à cacher son identité à la radio publique, il se cache. QUB est une honte.
Trump confronted by protestors in a DC restaurant…
Lemme just say if President Bernie Sanders had unilaterally imposed, by executive fiat, hundreds of billions of new taxes, personally browbeat executives about job cuts and investments and then fired the head of BLS, the Chamber of Commerce and the business orgs would not be sitting idly by.
Une lettre ouverte que je co-signe aux côtés de @maviau.bsky.social. Le premier ministre a un mandat pour agir vite et protéger les intérêts des Canadiennes et Canadiens. Mais il n’a pas le mandat de contourner les processus démocratiques et les normes applicables pour ce faire. #C-5
OPINION 📣 Nous cosignons ce matin une lettre avec le @cqde.bsky.social pour partager nos inquiétudes sur le projet de loi C5, qui porte sur les projets «d'intérêt national».
Pour des organisations soucieuses d’offrir un avenir sain et sécuritaire à nos communautés, C5 nous donne froid dans le dos.
