That’s because their residents voted for Donald Trump and their governors flatter him.

This isn’t about immigration; it’s about deeply damaged Donald’s brittle ego.

In the blink of a sleepy Trump eye, writes @sashaabramsky.bsky.social, the world has regressed from a purportedly post-colonial era to a most avowedly colonial one.

About half of the Declaration is a list of 27 specific grievances lodged against King George III and his regime.

Nearly 250 years later, many of these grievances apply to the reign of Donald Trump. Here’s a look at how Trump stacks up against the Mad King.

The Venezuelan people elected Edmundo González to run their country.

Not Pete Hegseth or Marco Rubio.

The American people do not support another expensive foreign war that risks the lives of our men and women in uniform.
