It’s happening. The takedown of Jimmy Kimmel is likely the start of a campaign to use the murder of Charlie Kirk as a pretext to use the power of the White House to wipe out Trump’s critics and his political opponents.

But we aren’t powerless. We can mobilize and organize. Now.

Trump actually is an internationalist and a global meddler, except in all of the worst possible ways for our nation's interests. From the recent archives, @saletan.bsky.social on Trump's "felons first" foreign policy: www.thebulwark.com/p/trump-fore...
Trump’s Foreign Policy: Felons First
The pattern is clear—he’s using American power not to help Americans but to shield foreign authoritarians from justice.

🇺🇦 finally will have means and numbers for a sustained deep strike campaign across occupied areas.

ERAM has smaller war head than SCALP/Storm Shadow. Very strong anti-EW capabilities.

Ukraine is a secondary topic for both Trump and Putin in Alaska. This is a mafia meeting arranged by war criminal Putin to restore Russia internationally & economically. Trump wants his "peace" glory and Putin used that to get this summit. But it's mainly about money for both of them, as always.

Online conspiracism is an easy path to power on the MAGA Right. The audience is credulous and demands nonsense.
