Twitter accounts are based in Russia. BlueSky accounts are based in homes with, frankly, too many books, plants, obsolete cables, and pieces of rustic pottery, that could do with a bit of a tidying up, to be honest.

I think Cory Doctorow really put it best

Conservatives think everything in the past was different from what is really was because they are remembering it from the viewpoint of childhood naïveté

The United States is no longer negotiating with Canada because the America's Republican President does not understand his predecessor's view of tariffs.

Forget the clip that worries the President. Reagan was consistent, and here's a different speech where he made his case.

Anyone blaming Canada for not getting an agreement with this lunatic should shut it
Trump is pissed about an ad that Canada recently ran in the U.S. showing Ronald Reagan talking about tariffs in 1987.

“Based on their egregious behavior, ALL TRADE NEGOTIATIONS WITH CANADA ARE HEREBY TERMINATED.”

I for one think the Epstein Ballroom will be magnificent. I love the decor theme of “what if Uday Hussein ran a Ramada Inn.” And giving it a theme song everyone will associate with it is a stroke of brilliance! “Thank Heaven for Little Girls” is very catchy.

Law of the sea expert chiming in to say there is no lawful basis for military strikes against vessels for customs infringements on the high seas or in any other maritime zone, including the territorial sea. These are unlawful extra-judicial killings.
The U.S. military carried out a new strike on Thursday against a suspected drug vessel in the Caribbean, and in what is believed to be the first such case, there were survivors among the crew, a U.S. official told Reuters.

It's this simple: the GOP controls the White House + Congress. They could pass a clean CR that keeps the government open. They would rather slash health benefits for working class families. Trump and the GOP are holding sick Americans hostage. Democrats refuse to abandon sick Americans. That's it.

This may have been the most insane and incoherent four days of his presidency. Tylenol, the U.N., I hate my opponents, other countries are going to hell, this escalator's broken, I'm mad at a TV comedian, I like Ukraine now. It really feels as if some minimal tether to reality has snapped.
