The U.S. borrowed $50 billion a week for the past five months, finds the CBO: 'Our fiscal problems will not solve themselves' | Fortune "We need policymakers to come together, agree to reduce deficits ... and put our national debt on a downward sustainable path as a share of the economy."

Not sustainable.

How We’re All Now Paying the Price for the Myth of Trump’s Competence The administration’s war with Iran is setting a mountain of taxpayer dollars on fire every day—mostly because he doesn’t know what he’s doing.

Sadly so true. "I'll end the war in Ukraine on Day One, will bring prices down blah blah"

Starmer rebukes Trump over ‘frankly appalling’ remarks on Nato troops in Afghanistan PM joins veterans in condemning claim that troops avoided frontlines and suggests US president should apologise

Making disrespectful remarks about soldiers who died in battle side-by-side with American soldiers is so typical and predictable for a five-time draft dodger like "Corporal Bonespurs"...

Trump’s Greenland framework sounds a lot like an already-existing 1951 deal | CNN Politics After President Donald Trump said suddenly Wednesday that he had secured the “framework of a future deal” on Greenland, nearly everyone involved was conspicuously tight-lipped about what it entailed.

Duh!

Jack Smith: "My fear is that we have seen the rule of law function in our country for so long that many of us have come to take it for granted. The rule of law is not self-executing. It depends on our collective commitment to apply it."

Majority of Americans is blissfully unaware of what life is like outside the USA. Part lack of interest / part fact that US news media relatively speaking hardly cover what happens in the rest of the world.

E.g. elections in major European countries rarely make it to front page.

Yup. Taco Drumpf backs down and folds.

waarom lacht Rutte altijd, ook als het totaal ongepaste situatie is?

Niet echt Holland's Finest, die Rutte...

How about proposing that USA would be better off being 11th province of Canada?

Wow. #NoKings #Davos2026

Trump shared edited photo featuring map with Venezuela, Canada and Greenland covered by US flag Trump posted a digitally altered photograph amid tension with NATO members over his plan to acquire Greenland.

IF this picture / story is true, each of these European "Leaders" will forever regret their failure to have walked out individually or as a group. ("am feeling unwell, apologies"

I added captions to this video of people heckling Greg Bovino leaving a Target in Minneapolis, and there's so many people yelling things at him it's like a comedy skit

Brown-noser is die Rutte. En het werkt ook niet met Drumpf

Jan. 6 plaque made to honor law enforcement nowhere to be found at the Capitol Approaching the fifth anniversary of the Jan. 6, 2021, attack on the Capitol, the official plaque honoring the police who defended democracy is nowhere to be found

And they call themselves "The Party of Law & Order" - so disrespectful/ so unforgivable

Opinion | Mitt Romney: Tax the Rich, Like Me

He's not wrong, but WTH are serious cuts to our ridiculous spending (approaching $1 trillion) on "Defense" aka The War Department not up for discussion?
Unsustainable defense spending caused USSR to collapse...

Very disappointed with Bonvoi. Since joining have focused all my hotel bookings with you. No more hotels.com. However, turns out I cannot book two Sheraton hotel rooms for my daughter & her family to stay at without me! Had to cancel these two pre-paid rooms! Calling that BS.

Hegseth order on first Caribbean boat strike, officials say: Kill them all Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth issued a verbal order to kill all crew members in the Sept. 2 strike on a suspected drug boat. Navy SEALs fired a second missile.

“Mark my words: It may take some time, but Americans will be prosecuted for this, either as a war crime or outright murder.”
