America spent 80 years building the most powerful alliance network in history. We blew it up in 12 months so one man could feel important. China is laughing. Russia is relieved. Our allies are making backup plans. Let’s flush the toilet of bad history. open.substack.com/pub/adamkinz...

We’re cooked

Remember when Trump removed Maduro and Republicans were celebrating because they thought Trump was going to bring freedom and democracy to Venezuela, but instead he just left the Maduro regime in place while stealing their oil like we knew he would?

In 2017, Donald Trump's then-Chief of Staff, John Kelly, accompanied Trump on a visit to Pearl Harbor. Kelly recounted how Trump turned to him and asked why they were there. He knew nothing about Pearl Harbor's history. The uncouth slob only knows about it now because of that visit.

Pretty wild that Trump just appointed JD Vance as a Fraud Czar to go after scammers right after he pardoned his 35th different wealthy crony convicted of fraud so far during this term with many more to come.

Thanks for this, @samsteindc.bsky.social. It's really hard to keep track.

💯 on 🎯

Amazing and appalling (but no longer surprising) that Trump won’t call out Putin. He reserves his anger for NATO allies.

Odd, how Trump criticizes NATO allies for not wanting to get involved in his stupid war, but *doesn't* criticize Vladimir Putin for using Donald's stupid war as an excuse to help Iran kill American troops.

But Pete Hegseth is living off millions of dollars of lobsters and fine wines. And sleeping in a king size bed.

🚨 SHOCKING MOMENT: A reporter asks Trump on Air Force One about the six U.S. service members who died last week. Instead of responding, Trump ignores the question completely and moves on. Why won’t he address the fallen troops? Hit the ❤️ and share to spread this!

For The Umpteenth Time: This Is Why Republicans Will Get Pounded In November: Another person died in ICE custody over the weekend, that’s 12 so far this year. This one was an Afghan National, here legally, who fought along side our troops in Afghanistan for over a decade. Why the fuck was he…

Boastful speeches are the first sign of weakness, and those who are capable of great things keep their mouths shut. ~ Cicero

Laughing at all the conservatives angry that Europe isn’t helping Trump’s illegal war in Iran. He tried to steal Greenland like a few weeks ago. Europe had to put troops on the ground to stop him. Why the fuck would they help him?

Every time he gets a question he doesn’t want to answer it’s the same playbook: “Who are you with? Fake news, I’m not answering.” Who they are with is irrelevant - his PAC sent out a fundraiser using a photo of a coffin to raise money. I don’t care who the reporter is.

They are suckers and losers to him, so why should he comment. bsky.app/profile/atru...

Fuck ICE. Fuck Trump.

😕

The President of the United States calls a female journalist a “maggot.” Real role model, huh MAGA? Real man, isn’t he?

Fox News admits to airing an old dignified transfer video on its program this morning, one that did not show Donald Trump wearing a white ball cap.

BREAKING: Trump FURIOUS at Kristi Noem – privately raging over her Senate testimony that implicated him in $220 million taxpayer-funded cosplay slush fund! What a bunch of idiots and cons that are running this country. The moron administration.

Maybe this is just me, but I kind of think massive military operations, in which we're demanding unconditional surrender as the outcome, probably should be authorized by Congress.

If it’s true that the United States bombed an elementary school and killed scores of children it is an unfathomable crime. I have never been more disgusted to be an American.

The fuck kind of answer is this

Calling in the Clinton’s in for a closed-door testimony while ignoring other widely implicated individuals is no mistake. This is an active, and massive, cover-up.

This is the post I’ve been waiting for from a Democrat.

The thrill Trump gets from having people blow up & kill other people, and from watching other people fight at UFC, comes from deep insecurity rooted in his personal cowardice. It makes him feel tough. It makes him feel adequate. Things he has never been but always wanted to be.

Sociopaths are terrific at spotting other sociopaths. {gift link} www.theatlantic.com/politics/202...

Also—just a hunch here—they probably didn't want their Olympic gold medal achievement to be overshadowed by being photographed and filmed with an adjudicated sexual abuser of women.

"Sometimes what's interesting is what isn't said. A few terms Trump never uttered last night: Equality. Rights. The rule of law. The Constitution. Republic. Democracy. Opportunity (used once, not thematically). Justice (used twice, in a narrow sense)." open.substack.com/pub/thebulwa...

America is watching today, so every reporter covering tonight's State of Delusion should be questioning why 50+ pages related to a woman accusing Trump of sexual assault when she was a child are missing from the released files.

I’ve only met a few of the Epstein survivors but the ones I’ve talked to are amazingly strong. The thing that they’ve said to me, the thing that I’ve not seen reported though I’m sure someone has reported it somewhere is that they face a ton of harassment from people online.

We are the laughingstock of the world because of our moronic and psychotic president. Deservedly so.

Four years ago, Putin launched his brutal invasion of sovereign and democratic Ukraine. The resistance of the people of Ukraine has been an example and inspiration for free people everywhere. Слава Україні! Glory to Ukraine!

John Barron making guest appearances in 2026 was not on my bingo card. Imagine being nearly 80 and still calling into TV under an alias. Cringe.

BREAKING: How the Trump administration will determine the “right” voters

This is a breathtaking article about the complete clown show at DHS being overseen by Kristi Noem and Corey Lewandowski (gift link)

How the fuck is Corey Lewandowski in any position to fire a Coast Guard pilot? What is his title? What is his job? What is his official position in the US government? If you are Kristi Noem’s boyfriend you get to fire Coast Guard officers?
