Lyrics like this are why the Dalai Lama was eventually fired from the Rolling Stones.
One of the few world leaders, who is not afraid of Trump and his threats, is Canada's Mike Carney. And Spain's Prime Minister Pedro Sanchez. A few others more too (the pope, but I would not count him as a politicial leader like the others).
We need more of them.
When a sitting U.S. president makes insulting remarks about Canada and threatens its sovereignty, I’ll criticize the United States and its administration if I bloody well please. What happens in that country has a big impact in the world, so no, I won’t “stay in my own lane.”
Normalizing relations with Belarus is incredibly dangerous and traitorous.
Trump is cozying up to a regime that actively aids Russia against Ukraine.
This move gives Putin a major advantage in avoiding sanctions while betraying global democracy

Ukraine has been an inspiration to us all.
For centuries, we're going to be pointing to them as an example of what humans can do when they're committed, dedicated, and have even the most tepid and sputtering material support from outside.

Our goal is to trace every child, secure their return, and ensure full accountability ↓

KALLAS: Yes, we expect an agreement within 24 hours.
@aaronparnas.bsky.social Aaron-in my Opinion having Writers continue to add "if Biden...." It doesn't help us, and could irritate others. DJT is doing these things, in comparison to No One. They stand by their own Terrible existence. Biden needs to be left out of it. (We know) PLEASE.
scientists seem to agree that “miss me yet?” over the scariest laser eyes picture of biden is a possible yardsign in yardsign-possibility-space, but none have dared, and none should dare, to bring it into reality. for upon its realization there would, all models project, be blood to pay
Warsh declines to say whether Biden won 2020 election
#Trump
Pete Ricket's is blaming Biden for the inflation rate. Biden was trying to bring America back from Covid. We were ahead of the rest of the world.
Treyz drew a stark contrast between Trump’s second term economy compared to Biden's.
“It’s pretty amazing when you think about what the president inherited,” she said. “We were coming off continuous prosperity, lowering inflation, prices coming down, growth in the manufacturing sector.”
Former Presidents Clinton, Bush, Obama and Biden reveal why they have hope for America's future
For more on centrist hubris, see "How Biden and Harris gifted America to fascism" 🙄
Let’s be fair.
Consumers have watched their fortunes get worse every year since 2021.
That the fall is continuing across administrations and parties proves beyond any doubt at all that neither the Democratic conservatives led by Biden & Clinton, nor the Trumpublicans, have any good economic ideas.
Damn
Imagine, 1500 maga were arrested + put in jail after trumps Coup, only to have trump pardon all of them but, yeah, blame Pres Biden, while the DOJ, Congress + SCOTUS protected trump
Too many did not do their fucking jobs, like Congress, SCOTUS + many Judges
BUT, it's ALL Pres Biden's fault
😡
CHRIS WRIGHT: Energy prices are still well lower than they were in middle of the Biden adminis--
CANTWELL: I want to stop you right there. There is nobody in the Northwest who thinks that. Not when they wake up & airline flights are being canceled because of high fuel costs. No one thinks it's okay
