Losing the Game of Chicken

In the wake of Donald’s announcement that he would be raising tariffs against China again, trade relations between China and the United States have completely melted down. Donald's grand-standing is having serious negative and far-reaching consequences for the future of the American economy.
A Total Fucking Loser

[As of this writing, the Dow Jones Industrial Average is down over 930 points.]I’ve said this before, but under the circumstances, I think it’s worth repeating. Donald and I have basically one thing in common: we’re absolutely terrible with money. The difference in that one point of commonality, however, is that I have no problem admitting it. I do not have to endanger the global economy in order to prove that I’m good at something at which I am objectively terrible.
Targeted Interference

In anticipation of today’s Wisconsin State Supreme Court election, Elon Musk was in Green Bay over the weekend putting millions of dollars behind the right-wing candidate, Brad Schimel in what he called a town hall. What business he has holding such a thing is beyond me considering he is not an elected representative and has no legitimate role in our government. He started off by saying:They don't realize just how important [this election] is.
Donald's Handler Makes Him Angry

Donald said in a call yesterday with NBC News that he was “very angry” and “pissed off” after Vladimir Putin questioned the credibility of Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy’s leadership. Donald claimed that Putin’s comments were “not going in the right location,” by which I think he means they are not helpful in the context of the so-called peace negotiations. Donald seems to forget that he himself has called Zelensky a dictator.
Contempt of Service

Four US soldiers who went missing on Tuesday, 25 March during a NATO training mission near the Belarus border have been confirmed dead. When Donald Trump, the ostensible commander-in-chief, was asked about the incident on Tuesday afternoon, he claimed he hasn't been briefed. While the families waited in agony for any word of what happened, the an who is supposed to be in charge of the United States military couldn’t be bothered to ask a single question about the soldiers’ status.
The Ongoing National Security Debacle

We now have confirmation that Donald's advisors did in fact share classified military details about the Yemen strikes, which we all knew to be true despite days of denials from every level of the regime. But I want to start with the man who accidentally invited a journalist into the Signal chat in the first place: National Security Advisor, Mike Waltz who made an appearance on Laura Ingraham’s show. His goal was to do some damage control.
Crossing the Rubicons

Shortly after the election, after it became clear to those of us who were not yet entirely convinced that the second Trump administration would be everything he and the architects of Project 2025 told us it would be, we began to hear a lot about the Rubicon that must not be crossed. That was understood to be the dismantling of the rule of law by the Trump regime’s defiance of the rule of law.
Break Glass: THIS Is the Emergency

The precipice is here and we are on it. And we’re closer to falling off of it than we have been in over a hundred and fifty years. I cannot claim to have any insight into the minds of Democratic leaders. I don’t know if they are driven by good if tragically misguided and ill-informed motives; I do not know if they are blinkered by having inhabited the insular world of the Senate for far too long; I do not know if there are other, worse things at play.
The Last Card to Play

[Update: Per Talking Points Memo: Senate Democrats gave up their sole point of leverage Thursday, as Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer (D-NY) announced that he would help Republicans pass a continuing resolution that slashes domestic spending and specifically targets Washington D.C. with massive, punitive cuts.
Watch What He Does

Donald Trump, as we all know, is constantly starved for attention. This weekend he gave two almost identical interviews, both airing on Fox, during which he spouted the same nonsensical false propagandist talking points that are easy easy for him as breathing. It’s difficult to keep track of everything the madman utters (yesterday, while his Stock Market was crashing, he posted on his failing social media platform 100 times—that’s one hundred times—in six hours).
