JD Vance’s comments about “Chinese peasants” reminds me of the 1963 movie, “The Ugly American.” Vance could easily be recast as the culturally clueless ambassador in a remake of this movie. No auditioning required.

Every decision by Trump is transactional and very personal. Raising the tariffs on Canadian steel and aluminum today has nothing to do with economics or trade imbalance. It’s getting back at Canada for its leaders saying bad things about him personally.

Trump is now demonstrating on national TV why he is about to implode. Probably the most un-presidential conduct in history. The go between with Trump and Zelinski was dispicable.

Does Joe Biden get credit for creating 256,000 new jobs in December? Or is Trump going to say he is responsible for the increase because of his election?

Sen. Fetterman thinks visiting Trump will result in opening a dialogue with him about important issues. Trump could care less about Fetterman’s concerns and will only use him in a political toy to show Trump is open to “listening” to Democrats.

Can’t wait to see how the MAGA folks and Trump will handle the release of the Gaetz Ethics Report. Will Trump say he never really knew Gaetz very well?😂And will MAGA world say the report is “fake news?”🤣

#2 Continuing with “Monsters on Maple Street.” If fact there were aliens who landed on Maple Street. The ending scene were the aliens saying they can take over earth without firing a shot. Just let the earthlings turn on each other.🤷♂️

With all the conspiracy theories flying around, does anyone remember the TV Twilight Zone episode, “Monsters on Maple Street”? A kid in the neighborhood said aliens could be the cause of a recent flash across the sky. The neighbors then went nuts accusing each other of communicating with aliens😱

MAGA Republicans finally admit today that cuts to Social Security, Medicare and Medicaid are on the table for serious consideration. So when does campaigning for the 2026 midterms begin?

For those concerned about the Hunter Biden pardon, this act will have a 72 hour life in the media until another thread like the Patel nomination gets all the attention. And just let the MAGA folks vent their false and laughable rage.

10. To be clear, DoJ didn't need the committee's stuff because they didn't do any work. They had all their interviews and they had to compare them with the J6 interviews because if there are inconsistencies, trump could use that to impeach DoJ witnesses. That's how Durham lost his case. 10/

9. Also meanwhile, we had Judge Cannon letting trump sue for a special master, which Garland fought and won. It was around that time he appointed Jack Smith. It was also around that time the J6 committee was refusing to give its stuff to DoJ. Stalling another three months. 9/

7. For the next year plus, 8 key witnesses in Garland's case were claiming executive privilege, so DoJ had to sue to force their testimony. Because of the court slow schedule, backed up from COVID and J6, this fight - which Garland won - took over a year. There would be no case without these 8. 7/
