No one can be watching this Davos speech and reach any conclusion but that the President of the United States is mentally disturbed and that something is deeply wrong with him. This is both embarrassing and extremely dangerous.

Moulton: "When we had briefings on Venezuela, we asked, 'Are you going to invade the country?' We were told no. 'Do you plan to put troops on the ground?' We were told no. 'Do you intend regime change in VZ?' We were told no. So in a sense, we have been briefed, we've just been completely lied to"

That one person can drag us into a war without consulting or even notifying Congress, or our allies, or fully explaining to the American people why this is necessary, is absolutely bonkers.
Reminder that Congress has the power to stop all of this. Where the hell are they?

Nothing about this is okay.
The President of the United States is on Fox News right now gabbing about the U.S. attack on Venezuela before addressing the American people.
So the new order of information is: Truth Social → Fox News → the public → Congress, maybe?

The US is now responsible for the governance of Venezuela. Toppling the regime of a smaller country is always the easy part. The hard part is what comes after. Neo-cons always expect a pro-US nirvana. It rarely works out. But I suppose the oil companies can seize some assets.

Dear news media,
Why not spend a few minutes today explaining how the process of going to war is supposed to work in a constitutional democracy? Because it ain't this.

Das Auswärtige Amt erklärt, die Lage in Venezuela sei noch unübersichtlich. Ich helfe gerne bei der Aufklärung: Trump greift ein Land an & entführt dessen Präsident. Das ist ein völkerrechtswidriger Angriff & Staatsterror. Hier keine deutlichen Worte zu finden, ist an Heuchelei nicht zu überbieten.

Herr Hitler, in Demokratiekreisen gelten Sie seit langem als umstrittener Denker, als Freund der Provokation. Jetzt bezeichnen Kritiker Sie gar als "gesichert antisemitisch". Lässt das einen Profi wie Sie völlig kalt? Oder ist man da menschlich auch ein Stück weit enttäuscht vom Verfassungsschutz?

Mit Jason Stanley und Tim Snyder verlassen zwei wichtige Forscher zu Faschismus und Autoritarismus die USA für Kanada. Sie wissen, was kommt. Auch @brynntannehill.bsky.social, die schon vor Jahren vor dem warnte, was jetzt geschieht, geht nach Kanada ins Exil. Lest ihr Buch „American Fascism“.
This is like watching all the animals fleeing inland right before a tsunami. They know what's coming. So did Einstein in 1932 when he left.
Doctors Stanley and Snyder are two of the top experts on authoritarianism, and have called it quits.
I'll be joining them in Canada this summer.
