From 2016 on, Trump's careless, undisciplined, laissez-faire management style points to state destroying mayhem. Emboldened by a 2nd term and bolstered by the 2024 SCOTUS presidential immunity decision, Trump's got himself way out over his skis in 2026. He struggles with his malign impulses.

Trump hinted this morning that he's open to talks with Iran concerning their brutal attacks against Iranian citizens in the face of domestic protests. That, of course, gives rise to the question, is Trump also open to reciprocal talks with Iran concerning ICE brutality toward domestic US protesters.

Just read Nikki Glaser's monolog script with someone's idea of 21 choice one liners. Hope her delivery earned her good reviews because the text is as flat as milk on a plate. Now, Don Rickles! There was a guy whose pace and timing were impeccable when he hilariously shived someone during a roast.

Don't you thrill when a few people with spines of steel push back in the face of Trump's bully boy tactics in pursuit of puerile revenge against enemies, real and imagined?

Headline: Big oil fracks Trump's Venezuelan gaslighting.

Who believes when SCOTUS reduced the limits on executive privilege in 2024, they tried to anticipate the lengths a malign actor like Trump would go to expand his authority even further? In 12 months, he has worked feverishly to eliminate every limit on executive privilege, and he's winning.

persistent discussion of his personal ambition to steal Greenland's natural resources via forced occupation should be a wake-up call to the 77 million Americans who foolishly voted for the renegade in 2024. They probably did not vote for war with NATO, being Europe and their northern neighbor.
January 11, 2026 at 3:10 PM
Trump seems oblivious to the US NATO obligation pursuant to Article 5, by design or ignorance, if Greenland is forcibly occupied by Russia or China. An forced occupation by the US would create a crisis within NATO itself that could potentially lead to a shooting war with Europe and Canada. His

Unless, of course, the "defend our domestic security interest" argument is a ruse to cover Trump's true motive: the larcenous acquisition of Greenland's natural resources. Kinda like the way drug interdiction is the fraudulent justification for Trump's Venezuelan adventure and not its oil resources.
January 11, 2026 at 2:44 PM
Greenland via its alliance with the Kingdom of Denmark is a member of NATO, and if invaded by Russia or China, Article 5 of the NATO Treaty obliges its members to engage the occupier. Trump would be called on by its Article 5 obligation to defend Greenland and protect its own security interest.

Classic Trumpian babble. He is so galactically ignorant. Greenland is a self-governed, autonomous territory within the Kingdom of Denmark. They have the legal right by constitutional fiat to declare independence if they choose, and they are clear they choose the Danish alliance, not that of the USA.

Another hypersonic policy fart shoots out from Trump's ass. He keeps 'em coming. No expertise in the economic significance of managing credit card interest. Or mortgage interest. Or Fed controlled interest rates. No research. No scholarly reflection. Just ad hocery from a 3rd rate economic thinker.

If the UK government is not to Musk's taste, and one he rebukes as fascist because it threatens to impose just limitations on X's mysogynistic and pedophilic permissiveness, what would be an appropriate identifier for someone as warped as he is.

Do you mean the Delta Force commander who failed in his duty to his oath and country by refusing to follow an illegal order? When is his court marshal scheduled?

Let the Capitol Hill Democrats and the few Republicans with a conscience and moral compass revolt against Trump's despotic reign, and impose a strict tariff against Trump, Noem, Miller, and the others who represent the administration's worst instincts.

Distain for someone who has a measure of human compassion is the province of the emotionally still born. No surprises here. America knows what Machine Kelly, the gangster, not the rapper, is not. Female narcissists make up a small fraction of all narcissists, but if the label fits, wear it.

Message to the Trump administration's shameless MAGA liars. They'll be hounded daily by an enraged public until Jonathan Ross stands in the dock charged with murder. He may be a dupe who drank the Koolaid, but he's their dupe, and he's a dupe who seems to have acted with malicious, criminal intent.

The misspelling of Kash is intentional.

The world's been smacked in the face by the truth of the grievous murder of Renee Good by an out-of-control and negligently supervised ICE agent. Trump is the Liar in Chief, and Vance and Noem, his dutiful elves. Try reconciling the galactic nerve of charging Cash Patel to superintend the cover-up.

No, it didn't! Venezuela crude is low grade; it is sludgier than Alberta heavy oil. Big US oil and gas companies aren't going back to Venezuela without huge subsidies and overwhelming military security. Estimates to return Venezuela to past production levels is 7-10 years and billions of dollars.

What an arsehole! Big Diomede Island (Russia) is 2.4 miles from Little Diomede Island (Alaska). From Cape Prince of Wales (mainland Alaska) to Cape Dezhnev, mainland Russia is 53 miles. Apparently, Trump says in ignorance, who wants Russia for a neighbor in Greenland. But it already moved next door.

All the feds need to justify ICE harming suspects, protesters, and spectators is a shooter who fears bodily harm or death at the hands of the victim, and who the shooter can describe as an extreme left wing radical. This has become the default defense for all ICE shootings or other misbehaviors.
