He’s a disaster for everyone but Putin.
Ask yourself why.
He needs to destroy it all for two reasons.
1. He works for Putin, it started in the 80’s. It’s documented. Russia is the only country not on the tariff list.
2. When it’s totally destroyed he’ll claim “ Only I can fix it”
Be ready

Great point listening to a talk by @timothysnyder.bsky.social: U.S. is making itself and its allies less powerful, which increases Russia’s relative power and influence, and brings about the multipolar world that it wants

Useful quick overview of federal spending, showing why slashing the federal workforce--only 4 percent of spending--won't make a dent in the deficit. Ignore the takeaway about "expensive" programs, though. We just need to pay for them, especially by taxing billionaires www.nytimes.com/2025/03/31/b...

Mike Johnson threw a tantrum after losing a vote to let parents work and parent—because nothing terrifies MAGA more than women having power. This is Project 2025 in action: shove women out of politics, kill work-from-home, and drag America back to 1953. The goal isn’t order—it’s obedience.

🚨UPDATE: Rümeysa Öztürk has now suffered three separate asthma attacks while in DHS custody.
She has not received her required asthma medications—a violation of her fundamental right to medical care.
This is cruelty, it is neglect, and it is a damning moral and legal failure.
