Maybe Trump should unconditionally surrender

Nice talk by #Fareed Zakaria at #Brown University last night on India and broader topics. He has hope that despite its current autocratic bent, India will ultimately move in a Western, liberal direction. Sees the world at a crossroads, with the collapse of postwar syistem of int'l collaboration.

Just finished "Naming Names," #Victor Navasky's terrific book on the Hollywood blacklist. Must read for anyone wanting a definitive account of that dark period. The story is eerily relevant at a time so many in politics, academia, etc are shamefully choosing to collaborate with the Trump autocracy.

🤣

Time to search Jared’s laptop

👏👏👏

Great thinking- in the middle of a war we and Israel started, let’s piss off as many countries as we can.

And thank me if your kid gets the measles

Do even MAGA people believe this nonsense?

Are we back in Munich, 1930?

Mendacious milkmaid 🤣🤣🤣

Instead of America First, it’s time we called US foreign policy what it has now become: Trump First

Oh my god

You mean the annihilation of the Iranian people?

🤣🤣

Well said. You are right. I wonder if this asshole would have vented this hatred if one of his star football players was a Muslim.

Stupid idiot

Ha Ha, yes, he and his billionaire friends can sail through in their yachts.

The Colombia prison would be nice.

You mean he does not embrace hatred as a value?

Wish the media would stop saying, "there was no evidence of widespread #voter fraud" in 2024. I mean, was there any voter fraud at all? If not, say so. If there were a few isolated cases, say that. "No widespread fraud" seems to infer Dems did cheat and only the degree of fraud is in dispute.

Why is Israel seeking to bomb Lebanon into oblivion? And why does nobody seem to care?

Can we talk about #regime change in the United States?

To me, not a close call. Absolutely not. In no way, shape, or form should Democrats help Trump and Republicans out of the mess they are creating. I mean,winning elections has got to be a priority now.

Really these Republicans are like eager to please but not very smart dogs, just lying at the feet of their masters.

👏👏

David, great job on 1A explaining the situation with the Trump administration’s trashing of VOA. Beyond disheartening.

Agreed. Taking Putin's word is like, well, taking Trump at his word.

Great to hear @jelaniya.bsky.social at #Brown University last niight, offering insights into Martin Luther King's thinking and reflections on how we can apply the lessons of that time to the current crisis in democracy. Kudos to Brown for sponsoring this timely event, its annual MLK Lecture.

There must be an argument against year-round daylight savings, but can't imagine what it is
