The Man Who Solved Nine Wars (And Other Fairy Tales)
Inside a holiday week where Trump disappeared, the economy cracked, the GOP detonated, and the tech titans paid tribute.
Trump’s “light holiday schedule” consists of pardoning two turkeys and hiding from every crisis he created. The Magnificent Seven bubble is about to pop, GOP members are eyeing the exits, and Trump’s #Ukraine “peace plan” turns out to be… Russia’s. #uspolitics

The Day the Kakistocracy Tripped Over Its Own Feet
How Trump’s fake prosecutors, bad appointments, and worse lawyering blew up the Comey and James cases
A federal judge just nuked Trump’s indictments of James Comey and Letitia James, not on the facts, but because the “prosecutor” Trump sent in was never legally a U.S. Attorney at all.

Democracy on the Ropes, Capitalism on Steroids
Trump’s foreign-influenced peace plan, DHS interference, extrajudicial military orders, and a political class terrified of the word “socialism.”
Kremlin-flavored “peace plans,” #DHS meddling for Andrew Tate, foreign-run #MAGA bots, Trump targeting Somali refugees, the military seeking legal advice on illegal orders, corporate food poisoning us, Ty Cobb warning Trump is too evil. #uspolitics #kakistocracy

The Air Is Getting Thin
From the Amazon to Washington, a week of institutional sabotage, global humiliation, and a kakistocracy determined to finish the job.
#COP30 fumbles the forests, Sudan’s riches fuel collapse, the #CDC caves to conspiracy, McConnell bans #hemp, and Trump boycotts the #G20 over a debunked #Musk myth. The air is literally getting thin. #uspolitics #kakistocracy #authoritarianism

Hedge-fund economics, health-care hostage taking, offshore drilling, and the steady and inevitable collapse of the Trump regime

The Man Who Pardoned 1,600 Insurrectionists Says We’re the Traitors

As America’s institutions swerve into oncoming traffic, Trump rewrites science, diplomacy, law, and even the Epstein saga, with all the stability of a Molotov cocktail sommelier.

America’s First DIY Indictment Kit
Trump’s Justice Department couldn’t persuade a grand jury, so they apparently just edited the indictment themselves, and now the whole prosecution is going up in smoke on the record.
Trump’s #DOJ admitted in court that the grand jury never saw the #jamesComey indictment, the one they charged him with. They literally cut-and-pasted a new version and had the foreperson sign it in a side room. #uspolitics #kakistocracy

Prioritized Appointment Scheduling System for Madness
Trump’s latest press conference offered equal parts delusion, deflection, and accidental self-parody.
What started as a press event about soccer spiraled into a fever dream of tariffs, #Epstein denial, and imaginary naval warfare.
“I was shouting at people because they were stupid.”
“Which country?”
“Why would I say that to you?”
