Quote from the former Republican political consultant Sarah Longwell: We need to burn MAGA to the ground and then salt the earth so that it’s another century before someone tries to overthrow liberal democracy. I concur. Longwell, Sarah. How to Eat an Elephant. 2026.

Of course: It turns out that the initial plan to allow the beef imports was announced the day after a closed door meeting between Trump and a Brazilian meat packing billionaire who is a major donor to Trump. ... very Trumpian story. It’s got this combination of raw corruption and raw incompetence

The stupidity is painful.

Anyone dumb enough to start the war with Iran is also too dumb to get out of it. Sigh.

Paul Krugman writes: Iran taught foreign governments not to fear American might; China, along with the crypto industry, has taught rogue countries that they needn’t fear American financial control; and Ukraine has taught foreign governments that they don’t need American support. What a clown.

Steve Bannon and Elizabeth Warren warn about an AI bubble burst and corrupt Trump admin bail out

The United States has pursued freedom of navigation as a core principle for most of its existence — essentially since its founding. Trump is an epic failure. www.nytimes.com/2026/05/21/w...

Gerrymandering is awful. The politicians choose their voters which is all wrong. My dream is for a national law requiring compact, contiguous, county-respecting districts with multiple representatives. This would allow for proportional representation to be achieved more closely. I dream.

Although born British I am in no way a royalist but I was pleased to see King Charles politely stick it to Trump in his speech to congress. www.youtube.com/live/ZhoflAu...

"Trump’s War With Iran Is a Product of His Deep Stupidity" I couldn't write a better headline. newrepublic.com/post/207989/...

34 names and counting...... Keith Porter Jr. Renee Good. Alex Pretti. Their blood is on Trump's hands. On March 28, we bring the reckoning. We don't forget. We don't forgive. #NoKings2026 social.demcast.com/s/xkL2gaX3

Drivers pay an average of 5 cents per mile for an EV and 12 cents per mile for an ICE vehicle. Electricity typically runs about $0.04/mile, while gasoline runs about $0.11/mile. It is only going to get worse for ICE vehicles.

Trump boosts the move to renewable green energy. There he goes playing 4d chess. His real goal is to accelerate the move to renewable green energy by launching a grotesque and pointless war to boost oil and gas prices. Brilliant. Genius. www.morningstar.com/markets/what...

It is all about the "Epstein class". The reason life is unaffordable is because all the increase in wealth is hoarded by the "Epstein class" which leads to corruption of our politics and the rise of Fascism.

That was a good speech. Go Ossoff. youtu.be/hzQY53_hpWw?...

Just saw a Ring ad to find lost dogs. But I am thinking you would have to agree to a lot more than searching for lost dogs. I am thinking you have to agree to ICE accessing your camera.

One reason crypto is bad is there is no recourse if your assets are stolen. Let's say by kidnapping someone and torturing them until they hand over the digital key. There is no way to force the return of the digital key.

Please gods save us from this clown. www.nytimes.com/live/2026/02...

ICE exists to enforce CIVIL immigration law, not CRIMINAL law of any kind. Ergo, there is no legal justification for them: * to be armed. * to be masked. * to kidnap anyone they want when they require judicial warrants to make CIVIL arrests. * to provide security for the Vice President, ever.

Just listened to this podcast and my biggest criticism is allowing Ben Shapiro to talk over Newsom when he is making a point. podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/t...

Impeach, convict, remove. Now. What do we need? Only 5 GOP representatives and 20 GOP senators to stand up for the USA. Sigh.

No there is no strategy. Stop looking to rationalize this diseased behavior. Trump is a malignant narcissist who thrives on conflict and chaos. Here is a gift link so you can read the whole stupid take. www.nytimes.com/2026/01/20/u...

The idiocy is painful.

The only way media should discuss Trump is not as a normal politician but as a mob boss enriching himself and his clique. open.substack.com/pub/paulkrug...

Why would an USA oil company invest in Venezuela when you have no guarantees and it is a very unstable situation.
