2026 is going to be a very dark year for US foreign policy, where everything that was built over many decades by leaders for collective security is torn apart by one madman, but only because people in his own party remain silent.

This is where we are at. For what? For nothing. For stupidity. For ego. For an old, demented malignant narcissist who expects the world to jump at his every whim. Well, when you follow international news you can see that the world has pretty much had enough of his bullshit.

Renee Good's words to the ICE agent, "That's fine, dude. I'm not mad at you," are not the words of someone trying to commit murder.
You know what does show intent to kill? ICE calling her a "bitch," preventing her from getting emergency medical care, letting her die, and preventing investigation.
