‘The devil is in the details’……in this case literally. The details of these lesser reported issues, such as Venezuela and the staffing of African consulates, reveal Trump and his regime for what they truly are - racist white supremacist dictators who will take by force and then plunder by coercion.
I had no knowledge of the inner workings of the Venezuela file. And now that I do, I find it exceptionally disturbing. But why am I surprised? After all….kings colonize. And my country is on his wish list. 🇨🇦
Happy 250th Birthday USA, you are now officially a rogue state. I can barely stand to read your summaries anymore Mary, but keep them coming. You, Shanley and HCR are documenting the demise of the nation in real time. Future historians will thank you.
Everything is being turned into a Trump organization transaction. That is the sole purpose of a man who is not content to ruin the US but the entire world. Trump is not a wannabe king. He's a despot in every rotten sense of the word.
Just looking at the photo itself, Trump has a dumb thumbs up and a stupid smile. Prime Minister Ali al-Zaidi is making a fist. I’m not a writer, so I can’t even come up with any words to describe how disturbing this image feels to me.
Seems to me this morning that the only ones who know how to handle trump are the Iranians. I admire their F-You approach to all of this in contrast to all the sycophants who are enabling him. He is now killing innocent people in the streets of America with impunity ... just like he killed Venezuelans. Remember when he said he could shoot someone on 5th Avenue and his followers would still love him (or something like that). Well, it's happening. Don't underestimate what could happen in the fall election. Anything is possible. Prepare for all possibilities. Unrestrained power, zero morality, fighting for his very life, and backed by his completely insane posse.
I find this all so frustrating because day by day he's advancing and I cannot detect effective resistance ... hopefully there's strong resistance planning happening in the background. It's not that I'm a prescient being ... he tells us thru both word and deed what he's going to do. I have believed him from the outset and I see that he's now turning the White House into a fortresss. It's not bc he prefers a different kind of column ... it's protection. Not protection from Iran or any other foreign entities, protection from Americans who attempt in any way to thwart his authoritarian regime. The ballroom/bunker won't be fully finished before the fall election and he has said that he realizes if GOPs lose power, he will be impeached. So he's ensuring his personal security. I admit to some curiosity about the speech on TV tomorrow night. I won't listen to it because the sound of his voice makes me physically ill. But I'll read trusted sources to find out what's going on in his addled mind. I've also heard it reported that his administration advises that there will be more of these television broadcasts, so there is a plan unfolding for sure.
The Trump coup continues, apparently extending beyond despotic rule of the U.S. to seeking to rule the world and plunder its assets by force, threats and bribery.
Tomorrow night Trump and the coup masters will return to 2020 election denial and Big Lies to set the stage for 2026 midterm election interference and denial of unfavorable results.
That major media is giving Trump a platform for this Hitlerian propaganda absurdity tells us how far we’ve gone towards an unrecognizable country that no longer pretends to honor the rule of law much less truth.
What the idiot doesn't know (among a million other things) is that 'thumbs up' is the middle finger equivalent in Iran and other Mid-Eastern countries.
Same here , Joy. That’s what their vote got us,not what was promised, nor most expected, and will get far worse. I don’t hate the fooled nor the complicit, as most of them will get bit eventually too.
Trust is gone for generations , and more innocents will continue to suffer. Sorry.
For those of you who can , remove yourself best possible from dependency of systems , create your own entertainment, live simply as possible,teach others lovingly -whoever else -how…and why. Corporate will absorb all they can out of anyone, and that was the feudal plan.
Re Trump and his terrorizing Iranians with destruction: he claims that will force Iranian officials to the negotiations table.
Might do. If they cared about the ordinary citizens of their country.
I think they have as much concern for the average Iranian as Trump does for the average American. I don't think I need to elaborate.
As for other news: "Trump said Iran’s military capability had been reduced to a fraction of what it had been... and would require 20 years to rebuild."
And their infrastructure too, no doubt.
Meanwhile, rebuilding America after the Trump regime destruction will take far more than 20 years. I doubt it will happen in my lifetime (I'm 73), if ever.
This info makes me truly sick. The U.S. has become the thug of the world. Who will ever trust us again?

And Robin Snyder. These four women present all the news I need... whether I like it or not. 😞

About the Strait, the quote “I want to be reimbursed” says all you need to know about the wannabe king.
