John is Curious 🇬🇧 🇧🇻 😂

Rain Clouds moved silently into view and soon the sky was uniformly dark A breeze played across my face and the first spots fell on ink blotter hair Soon I knew the rain and the breeze were chilling my skin but my tears froze my soul Trump was crowned.

Now there's a shock. Punishment unless you you capitulate to my unreasonable demands apnews.com/article/trum...

America First? Sorry. No. Trump First.

A man with a plan. Move the Palestinians out of Gaza while bulldozers clear the rubble. Build a Riveria and open up to condo owners and tourists. Palestinians? Well some can come back to serve and wait and clean. As I said, Trump's a man with a plan. Bibi's smiling

Thought: Being in your face everyday is what keeps Trump alive

Is Trump's manipulation of global stocks a good or bad thing? Is Trump romancing with 1929 for ego stroking and showmanship?

Anyone notice that Trump hasn't told his lame brains and walking wounded that he gave way on guns into Mexico? Is he the 1st Republican to move on Guns?

He’s such a moron

According to Trump, it won't be fair until a. We accept American private health insurers/providers and b. We take hormone beef and chlorine chicken (if there are any left). BBC News - UK-US trade fair, No 10 says in face of Trump tariff fears - BBC News www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

Is there a connect? Gov Newsom gets a kiss from Melania in LA and Trump throws away water from 2 reservoirs. A while back Justin got some admiration from Melania and now Canada is getting unfair heat? I'm curious. 😊

Mexico is complying and can keep beef exports into USA for a while, says WH but Canada is misunderstanding - this is not a trade war. But is Trump the deal maker playing one off against the other?

In the UK, the NHS, (always free at point of delivery (though cracks appearing)), is for the people and is very important to the people. The NHS has become a political football and a commercial cash cow: It has suffered from inept governance. But it belongs to the people and Trump wants it 😳☠️

This is just more than the American people will tolerate, I’m afraid…👇 Isn’t it?! 🤚 A. Step. Too. Far.

Elon Musk now has access to your Social Security number. The world’s richest man has gained access to the confidential personal information of every taxpayer in the United States.

Starting trade wars to make it easier to take over the government was literally the plot to the Star Wars prequels.

the other thing about these moves is that the union becomes untenable if your access to the good faith and protection of the national government is contingent on whether you renounce your co-sovereignty as a state and submit to the whims of a president who has claimed sovereign authority

🇺🇲👇👍

It’s a political version of the thermodynamics axiom: once you (or Trump) breaks things down, it’s much harder to put them back together. www.theatlantic.com/ideas/archiv...

“Musk’s DOGE crew lacked high enough security clearance to access that information, so the two USAID security officials — John Voorhees and deputy Brian McGill — believed themselves legally obligated to deny access.” apnews.com/article/doge...

Now that Beyoncé won for Best Country Album, how soon before Trump issues an EO to ban DEI from the Grammys and install Elon to count the votes?

These are the Dem senators who voted to confirm Bessent, the dude who handed over YOUR personal/financial info/Social Security/Medicare/tax refund info- EVERYTHING - to Edolf Musk. Write to them. Call them. Now. Demand they do something and that they NOT confirm another single appointment.

Imagine you’re a lifetime civil servant and some snot-nosed college kid who interned for Elon Musk rolls in looking like he’s hungover from last night’s frat party and demands you defend your work.

Mexico has joined Canada in placing 25% tariffs on the US. China has filed a suit against the US at the World Trade Organization. People across all European countries, Mexico, Canada and parts of Latin America are organizing a world wide boycott of all US products. “Buy anything but US”

My book club has always used FB messenger for group chat. We decided to migrate to Signal because the federal employees/spouses of federal employees don’t feel safe using Meta platforms. We’re basically just wine moms but being on FB could endanger their careers. That’s so tremendously fucked up.

RFK Jr. loves unpasteurized milk. So does the bird flu. He should not be in charge of our national health services.

RFK JR. Definitely a DEI hire.

If it’s USAID that’s the criminal organization, why is Elon running around with naive college-aged kids with no security clearance, raiding gov. agencies? I wonder how these kids are going to feel when they realize they served their purpose.

This is turning out to be just as bad as I expected, but I was hoping I was wrong.

You know what? The EU & UK should put tariffs on US goods (from red states) in solidarity with Canada and Mexico. Rather than watching others get bullied and waiting our turn - we should unify against this bullying until the bully drops that behaviour.

BREAKING: Two USAID security officials denied Elon Musk’s DOGE crew access to classified material that they lacked clearance for. Trump just put them both on leave for doing their job. The lawlessness continues. Please make it STOP!

💯💯💯

“Now, as fears emerge Trump’s administration is ‘dangerously’ undermining the U.S. dollar, Musk has confirmed he wants to put the U.S. Treasury on a blockchain, the technology that underpins bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies—including Musk’s pet project dogecoin.” www.forbes.com/sites/digita...

Trump: What to do about a weird guy who wants the world to pay off the interest on the US trillions of national debt the US can no longer afford to pay back.

unfortunately for these folks the odds are that they aren’t going to go after violent criminals at all — too hard — and going to go exclusively over the easiest targets, which are law abiding workers

🚨Trump’s trade war is spiraling. Canada is hitting back with massive tariffs targeting US goods, from whiskey to Teslas. Prices are about to soar and the US has become a global pariah. Catch up on all the fallout in Ron Filipkowski’s weekend bulletin.

📌From Timothy Snyder:

Business that supported Project 2025, seems like a daunting list but it’s easy to mentally flag McDonalds, Wendy’s and Dairy Queen which leaves Burger King and any non franchise business to have a burger. This list is all over Facebook, IG, and threads with no community notes.
