For the last decade Trump has been signalling he’d use Nukes and Nukes are not off the table. He was signalling that for a reason, folks.

Didn't Mike Johnson call off 2026?
He's exhausted, guys, give him a break. After Trump gets all the oil into Mar A Lago, the two houses can convene to issue strongly worded letters.
And CBS will have a riveting 8-part series on Biden's age.

Jesus Christ, I just saw that Trump even ordered the bombing of the dead body of Hugo Chavez in his mausoleum.
You may recall that Trump subscribes to the insane conspiracy theory that Chavez rigged the 2020 presidential election from the grave.
That’s how deranged all this is.

I feel like at this point, most people know about herd immunity. It was preached from the heavens during COVID. There’s just a much bigger “you’re not gonna tell me what to do” crowd now.
Many don't realize that the most vulnerable or immune compromised depend on the rest getting vaccinated properly to keep diseases from spreading out of control. It's not just “my body, my choice” when it comes to saving lives.

Often the crime *is* worse than the cover-up. And this amount of cover-up speaks to absolute horrific magnitude of crimes.

In authoritarian crackdowns, it’s important to randomly ensnare some people whom one would think would be safe, so that everyone is at least a little bit afraid that something could happen to them. The regime scales up its power of intimidation over a much larger group than those directly affected.
