"Don't take the easy path," he wrote. From Canada.
In 2026, we can’t take the easy path by giving in to despair. We have to keep doing something to be ready for the moment the right combination of events align and we can see a better future.

It won't surprise anyone that I think this is pretty weak stuff. And, if you think it rocks, that's cool. That's cool. But, like, is it a good idea to a) front-load the opposition's rationale for their illegal acts or b) repeat and center "America First" framing?

I've been very pessimistic, which I understand to mean that this is all my fault. Apologies.

Vance too. The only difference between Trump and Vance is dementia. And possibly pedophilia. Getting Trump and Hesgeth out but leaving Vance and Miller is throwing a Band-aid on a festering wound.
Also, the American government HAS to make moves to impeach Trump and Hegseth immediately. Anyone who doesn't break from Trump right now is going to be labeled in the history books as a Nazi. Nobody in 2050 is going to care that you were a Democrat.

Can't help but feel like this is one of the reasons why the Constitution says If a dude in office does an insurrection, don't let that motherfucker hold office again
Bc clearly they cannot be trusted with power & control over the levers of government, & they do not care about democratic constraints

the lunatic criminals who run our government kidnapped a sovereign country’s leader after murdering countless of his citizens off that country’s coast and are now making up fake charges to justify this obscene crime
The US Attorney General confirms Maduro is being charged with "conspiracy to possess machine guns" - something Republicans usually call a constitutional right.
