@schumer.senate.gov you and the other yes votes have just sold us down the river. You think we’re going to forget? You’d be wrong. You’ve just lost your entire base. I hope you’re happy. God damned the lot of you.

The Trump Vance performance today was one of the great foreign policy fails in US history, the biggest Oval Office clusterfuck the public has ever had the chance to watch in real time. But it was much worse than that. Another piece from me. www.thedailybeast.com/trump-thinks...
Trump Thinks He Humiliated Zelensky. He Really Humiliated the United States
Trump’s Oval Office mob show proves he’s no Don Corleone. He’s Luca Brasi—with nukes.

It took Hitler a bit longer to destroy Germany. Trump is doing it in mere weeks.
This whole effort was brazenly illegal. From the big picture down to innumerable individual acts. But even if course was shifted now, which is basically unimaginable, Musk likely has already essentially destroyed the organization. Under the best circs will take years or decades to rebuild.
USAID’s website has been deleted, all that is left is a note saying all personnel are now on administrative leave and personnel outside the US are to be brought home. Completely illegal, no act of congress or even executive order was signed to dismantle the agency

A leaked House Republican plan slashes $2.5 TRILLION of mandatory spending, potentially targeting Medicare & Medicaid—seniors, low-income families, kids, and pregnant women. Millions could lose care, all to fund tax cuts for the wealthy.
