Just as everyone predicted with the exception of Donald Trump, Scott Bessent, Howard Lutnick, and Kevin Hassett. The last 3 knew they’ve been lying, not sure with Orange Caligula because he’s a moron and a liar so in his case it could be either one or both.

We are watching one of the wildest things a nation-state has ever done: A superpower is committing suicide because the GOP Congress is too cowardly to stand up to the Mad King.
This is one of the wildest moments in all of geopolitics ever.

We should take Trump’s letter to Norway and project it on every public building at night, every reporter should make a T-shirt of it and every American should keep a laminated copy of it in their pocket to talk to their friends about.

By the way, don't fall for this nonsense. Trump's actions have nothing to do with the Nobel Prize whatsoever. That's a deflection strategy. The real reason is that Putin wants to destroy NATO, which Trump's actions will accomplish.

Now I’m facing 17 years in prison for standing up to this administration and to ICE. But if they think I’ll back down, they are wrong.

2026 is going to be a very dark year for US foreign policy, where everything that was built over many decades by leaders for collective security is torn apart by one madman, but only because people in his own party remain silent.

As of Thursday, ICE-Gestapo was holding over 73,000 people in their concentration camps, a record amount in their disgraceful 23 year history.
They aren’t a law enforcement agency, they are a militarized terrorist organization that should have been disbanded long ago.
