“They’re coming to our land.”
That’s what Trump said yesterday about some Ecuadorian men he had killed yesterday off the shore of South America. The men were in a fishing boat that had no top at all. If you sealed the entirety of the boat and filled it with gasoline then built another boat on top of it, that boat would not have enough gasoline to get within 2000 nautical miles of the United States.
So what did Petey Margarita and Dementia Don decide to do?
Light them fuckers up! One 500 pound Hellfire missile on those smug fisherman thinking they are going to just go off the coast of their country and not get shot?
Excuse me Mr. Fisherman/Drug Smuggler how did you like that 500 pounds of freedom we brought you bastards?
You know, because drugs bad.
It’s interesting to me anyway. When I was a teenager I had .....

By that standard, Trump is a strong leader. So was Stalin.

Ironically, Biden may be wrong. President Trump appears to not be a weak leader, but instead has imposed unity on Republican government officials in DC, and coast to coast.
By that standard, Trump is a strong leader. So was Stalin.

The problem with allowing this ultra-partisanship within the exec. to spill over into the judicial is not merely expanding the destructive detriment of such contrived division.
Within the judicial branch of government, where only Republican-appointed law judges can criticize a Republican president it fortifies the notion that within the U.S. itself justice is partisan, and
the same criticism of a Republican president by a Democrat-appointed law judge should be reflexively dismissed as partisan bias, not patriotic critical analysis.
For now we'll have to settle for half-a-loaf. Perhaps we should take comfort that at least one judge is willing to say so.
But as long as the Republican party collectively continues to prioritize partisanship ahead of citizenship, the People and nation of the United States of America will remain at great peril.
The demolition is not merely metaphorical.
Reportedly, the East wing of the White House is now rubble. Trump lied about that too.

It was a scene that could make even the furniture in the East Room cringe: Donald Trump basking in the glow of Mark Rutte’s compliments, nodding like a Roman emperor being told the crops were bountiful. The newly minted NATO Secretary-General, once Europe’s pragmatic Dutch prime minister, now recast as the alliance’s designated Trump whisperer, sounded like a man mistaking survival strategy for sincerity. “Your leadership,” he cooed. “Your vision of peace.” The adjectives came thick as syrup; the self-delusion, thicker still.
In truth, Rutte wasn’t there to flatter Trump’s ego; he was there to keep him from detonating the world order by accident. Europe, desperate for a ceasefire in Ukraine and a stable Washington, had quietly deputized Rutte as the one man who might soothe the beast. His task wasn’t diplomacy in any classical sense, it was damage control, disguised as deference. The goal was simple: convince Trump that ending the war would make him look brilliant before he decided to prove it by doing something catastrophic.
And so the press conference became a kind of theater of survival. Rutte played the loyal chorus, feeding lines to a man who thinks he solved the Middle East with “peace plus seven,” and Trump, ever the unreliable narrator, performed his delusional soliloquy about ending “nine wars,” cutting gas to $2, and personally saving Los Angeles from combustion. Every absurdity went unchallenged, every fantasy transcribed as fact. It was hostage negotiation conducted in daylight.
Trump, naturally, lapped it up. “We solved the Middle East,” he declared, just casually, like you might say ....

BREAKING: Donald Trump melts down, screeches “FAKE,” and flees from trade negotiations with Canada after they release an old video of Ronald Reagan slamming tariffs.
For the umpteenth time, Donald Trump just proved that his ego is a bigger threat to America’s economy than any foreign nation. In an outburst that would make even a toddler blush, Trump announced on Truth Social that he’s cutting off all trade negotiations with Canada because of — wait for it — an ad.
That’s right. The Province of Ontario aired a clip of Ronald Reagan (yes, Saint Ronnie himself!) warning against tariffs back in 1987, and Trump lost his mind.
“ALL TRADE NEGOTIATIONS WITH CANADA ARE HEREBY TERMINATED,” Trump shouted online, insisting that the video was “FAKE” and somehow part of a plot to “interfere with the decision of the U.S. Supreme Court.”
Because, of course, in Trump World, a decades-old Reagan radio address is now a deep-state conspiracy.
The ad, which cost Ontario about $53 million to air in the U.S., simply used real Reagan quotes criticizing tariffs for destroying markets and costing jobs. But Trump — who worships tariffs like they’re gospel — took it as a personal attack and decided to blow up trade with one of America’s closest allies over a commercial break.
Even the Reagan Foundation piled on, bizarrely calling the ad “misleading” and threatening to “review ....

Ontario to Pause Anti-Tariff Ad After Trump Terminates Trade Talks With Canada
The ad will be pulled on Oct. 27, after it airs during the weekend’s World Series games.Ontario Premier Doug Ford said following a discussion with Prime Minister Mark Carney his province will be pausing its TV advertising campaign that led U.S. President Donald Trump to end trade talks with Canada. The ad will be pulled on Oct. 27, after it airs during the weekend’s World Series games.
“In speaking with Prime Minister Carney, Ontario will pause its U.S. advertising campaign effective Monday so that trade talks can resume,” Ford said in a statement posted on social media on Oct. 24.
Ford said the intention of the TV advertisements, which featured late U.S. President Ronald Reagan speaking critically of tariffs, was to “initiate a conversation” about the U.S. economy and the impact of tariffs on workers and businesses.
“We’ve achieved our goal, having reached U.S. audiences at the highest levels,” he said.
Ford said he has directed his team to “keep putting our message in front of Americans over the weekend” so that the commercial can be aired during the first ....
