Which is why all the talk about future bipartisanship needs to stop.

We’re going to restore the rule of law. If Republican elites come along, great. But we’re not giving them a veto on what’s “bipartisan”

If they start targeting each other’s water desalination plants, the region may end up with tens of millions of thirsty refugees. Trump is playing a game of Mutual Assured Destruction with a culture that glorifies martyrdom. What could possibly go wrong? ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

The thing is, that is how he really thinks. There is no filter between brain and mouth. His internal dialogue is either
1. that disordered, or
2. embraces multitudes

Iran is totally defeated but also Donald Trump needs and wants help from China to tackle them but also they're wholly decapitated and also it's all definitely fine.

While The Sopranos, as explained by Chase himself, devolved to a music video, which left one wondering how many hours had been wasted on the series.

With Trump term 2, the finance and energy industries, and much of the business community, decided nothing matters, nothing's real, line goes up.

Corruption? End rule of law? Global disruption? Meh. Like everything is a meme stock.

They'll deny it as long as they can, but reality will have its say.

The fact that almost all Republicans go along with this shows the power of extreme Authoritarianism. Trump & his gang want the US to be a new Sparta - a warrior country cowing the rest of the world with our pure killing power. It's so sick.

It almost surely is not, but a bad motive is, here, equally surely lacking.

Now I thought of the distinction! del Naja has never shown the slightest trace of a sense of humour, while ‘Banksy’ has a broad puckish streak.

🇺🇦 On the night of March 14, the Ukrainian Defense Forces:

Jon Bream spoke w/ Patti Smith this week and she said: “My message to Minnesota will be of gratitude and admiration because of the resilience shown with everything that happened, seeing how people in the freezing cold stood out there and kept their position, even [with] a sense of humor at times.”

There is NO ONE in the top councils who *ever* has the logistics/staging/timing light bulb light up.

Some still believe that getting Middle Eastern oil flowing again (production and its transport to the rest of the world) is as easy as turning on a light switch when the time comes. It isn't.
