This guy was installed by president trump

Trump hits 32% approval and 64% disapproval in the new ARG poll. By this time in term 1 he had clearly reversed his decline. Now he is accelerating it.

Trump is toast. Keep the course.

Kevin Warsh just lost me. He argues he's going to be an independent Fed Chair, but refuses to acknowledge that Trump lost the 2020 election. If you can't state simple facts when you're in the political spotlight, you aren't independent. You're a coward.

Nine lessons for the US from Viktor Orbán’s defeat | Kenneth Roth As US elections approach, the Hungarian prime minister’s loss is a reminder that history does not march relentlessly toward autocracy

"Hungarian voters’ April 12 rejection of Orbán also holds important lessons for Americans who hope to resist Trump’s own autocratic tendencies," writes @kennethroth.bsky.social.

I like this chick.

Amanda Nelson: #f'djt Democracy is not a spectator sport.

I’ve heard that they do have strange weather patterns like that in Russia. Weird.

ARG poll out today puts Trump at 32% approval. I think he’s fallen below the GWB line.

He is well on his way to catastrophe. He will face accountability soon.

64% disapproval puts him at 2:1 Americans disapprove to approve.

By starting a war and driving up oil prices, Trump has handed a massive windfall to Russia while hurting growth for the rest of us.

He will mark history as a corrupt leader who was more interested in shielding Epstein and helping autocrats than delivering on his own agenda

And rest assured we are not idle here in the USA.

Yes I’m aware. Petrodollars days are numbered.

But I think Patel or Lutnick might be next. Didn’t the SecDef mid war seems … exceptionally irresponsible?

They’re setting Dan Driscoll up for promotion. I’m not sure I trust him but I think he will be an improvement. He seems to have some allies who are decent. Gen Randy George was a friend of his I think. And George was hella good

Me me me me me

The malignant narcissist can’t help himself

Call them anyway!!!

Do not fucking obey in advance. Deciding they don’t care is capitulation.

Call the mother fuckers regardless of your feelings.

yeah its 4.30 here. my sleep cycle has been off since Nov 2024. and getting worse lately. =\

yes. Russian Ruble is not the global reserve currency though either.

this is totally off topic, but i can always tell when the Euros wake for the day lol

on the other hand, i do feel bad for the fellow. he was dealt a pretty shitty hand.

well, we dealt him a pretty shitty hand. -_-

suppose it's worth noting that Russia has been targeting the USA with extreme hybrid warfare for 10+ years now.

and by golly have they done a good job.

heh.

but also ... what about that Havana syndrome. that's some scary shit. apparently we here in the US now have one or more of the actual devices responsible.

i was super involved in the UFO community and they thought it was aliumz (which it could be honestly).

that device can hack brians tho

for sure the American Exceptionalism is a false teaching. but a great many of us here recognize it as such. don't lump us all in together either btw. we're one of the (if not the) most diverse nations on Earth, and are made up almost exclusively of immigrants.

i think it's a domination thing.

diversity is a strength! even stubborn diversity ;)

so i know a lot of people imagine the 2A as being some great firewall against Tyranny. and it is in many respects but it's also seriously debated in today's age when muskets are irrelevant and machine guns tanks and air bombers exist.

so don't get tripped up too much on "2A defense against tyrants"

he has no ideology other than whatever enriches him the most. that is the fundamental truth you must understand about him. above all else, he only cares about what enriches him and empowers him.

now that he's in big trouble, he has to sacrifice some lambs. they were convenient.

lol yeah. and honestly this is a good sign for our democracy.

Trump doubled down on the 'no firings' early on bc he wanted to assert power.

this is political reality hitting him hard. even he faces consequences and must aquiesce to the citizenry.

it also pierces their imagined invincibility.

but to be fair the right has been increasingly fearful of any idea or dialogue that does not confirm their own biases for a couple decades now.

we are going to have to root them out to the very deepest parts of society now.

evil has no place in a civilized society.
