Sounds like a sh*t storm to me.

What kind of relevant experience does this guy have that makes him any kind of expert in international negotiations?

Wondering... what exactly is the strategy being used by the Trump administration in this war? What are the objectives? What will happen tomorrow? Next week? Next month? Or is it as I suspect and they are just making stuff up as they go along?

Here is a question to ponder this morning. What country stands to make a lot of money the longer the Straight of Hormuz remains closed? Answer: Russia. Oil prices will rise considerably, which will help Putin fund his war with Ukraine.

It's not that hard to grasp when you remember that Trump IS a convicted felon.

Washington is looking more and more like a seat of facism.

Trump's former attorney. "THIS IS NOT A DRILL!"

Good article. It is hard to say who of those people is the worst, although I personally feel Bondi is especially after her horrendous performance in the committee hearing. But all of those people have more negatives than positives for sure.

Thanks for all you are doing to defend our democracy.

Today's actions by Bezos demonstrates that he doesn't really care about the Post. Of he really feels that way he should just sell it and walk away.

Thank you, Mr. President.

So I assume this phone conversation with Putin was for Trump to receive his orders for the meeting with Zelenskyy.

How does Trump have the power to do this?

Zelenskyy has been remarkably consistent in his unwillingness to compromise the best interests of his country ever since Russia invaded. It reminds me of the "iron rod" that Churchill was in his defense of Brittain in the face of Nazi Germany's aggression in WWII.

Not sure he would want the job, but I believe Mark Kelly would make a good president.

The Trump apologist checklist after Trump or his administration does something awful:

1. Fake news, it didn’t happen.
2. It might’ve happened, but it would be OK if it happened.
3. So it happened, so what.
4. Whatabout [insert names of various presidents here]

Every time troops are deployed there are risks to the troops. And now they want to deploy 500 more? I'm not sure that is the right response to the shootings.

What he said Part 2: 💯 🎯

Yes, and unlike Trump I believe that most Americans do value and respect most other nations in the world. I would also like to think we aren't as grievously selfish and self-centered as he is.

Trump has sone this zero times as president. He only knows how to divide.

Trump's policies are leading us into recession, he's kicking people off of health insurance and denying them vaccines, he's destroying the rule of law, he's being played for a fool by Putin..but he's going to call the Department of Defense the Department of War! America is great again!

Pathetic.

A sea turtle surfacing by a MASSIVE school of rays near Clearwater, Florida a couple days ago. Another post into the BluSky void. Maybe 2 or 3 people will see this one and my time won't have been wasted. I'll keep trying a little longer. #nature #animals #amazing #wildlife #awesome #ocean

And it is nausiating to me that Republicans in Congress and the right wing SCOTUS are enabling Trump's power grab every step of the way.

@nealkatyal.bsky.social: “You’ve got the president who's imposed the largest tax increase on American consumers since 1993 … and he did it without Congress saying one word. That is not our constitutional structure.”

Lately, it's more like every day. I find it exhausting. Each morning I wake up wondering what crazy sh#t is going to happen today? I agree we need to put a stop to this. I just hope that enough people are taking this as seriously as they should.
