You mix things up. Voting is secret for everyone, including service members, so the topic here was "partisan displays". That the Commander in Chief expects them to violate that practice is appalling.

Again, something Stephen Cheung and his goons have spewed to distract from all the mess surrounding their boss. (You can always tell when the lix is too high to have been Trump, even if his comms office tries to copy his style).
Makes you wonder who is really in charge when he sundowns.

You beat me to it. The Guardian should be more critical of its sources when anything Trump is involved.

Don't be silly. The flattery season is over, and everyone everywhere - most of all in the US - should stop sugarcoating his childish lunacy.

This line graph illustrates the percentage change in agency staff levels from the previous year for nine major U.S. federal scientific and health organizations between the fiscal years 2016 and 2025. The agencies tracked include the CDC, Department of Energy, EPA, FDA, NASA, NIH, NIST, NOAA, and NSF. For the majority of the timeline between 2016 and 2023, the agencies show relatively stable fluctuations, generally staying within a range of +5% to -5% change per year. However, there is a dramatic and uniform plummet starting in the 2024–25 period. Every agency depicted shows a sharp downward trajectory, with staffing losses ranging from approximately -15% to over -25%. The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) shows the most significant decline, dropping to roughly -26%, while the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) shows the least severe but still substantial drop at approximately -15%.

This is the most astonishing graph of what the Trump regime has done to US science. They have destroyed the federal science workforce across the board. The negative impacts on Americans will be felt for generations, and the US might never be the same again.

He is now completely off his rocker. If he and his handlers behind the scenes are not stopped immediately, both American and international security are in danger.

World leaders are hardly thrilled to have their private correspondence with Trump made public in his rage tweeting in the middle of the night.

Wake up Congress and NSC - he is a security risk. And he has obviously lost it completely.

Trump Triggers a Crisis in Denmarkβ€”And Europe "Trump might forget about Greenland. But also, he might not. Nobody knows. He operates on whims," @anneapplebaum writes.

Exactly one year ago I went to Copenhagen. I wrote about the fallout from Trump's first phone call with the Danish prime minister. Danes have been preparing for this crisis for a year.

"That may make Trump think twice." Hardly, since he is not able to think even once. This is his vanity project, and only the American Congress and the US military leadership refusing to obey illegal orders can stop him permanently from pursuing this idea.

It is incredibly counterproductive to badmouth Europe (and its leaders) constantly when the continent is under constant pressure or threats from the US and from Russia in the East. We can point out the necessity of mobilising in every way, including militarily, and why, but we need to show unity!

Trump Lays Out a Vision of Power Restrained Only by β€˜My Own Morality’

Not everyone believed me when I wrote that Trump wants Greenland becuase it would make him feel important, but that's what he told the NYT:

When asked why he needed to possess the territory, he said: β€œBecause that’s what I feel is psychologically needed for success"

Trump withdraws US from dozens of international organizations, White House says The White House did not list the organizations but said they promote "radical climate policies, global governance, and ideological programs that conflict with U.S. sovereignty and economic strength."

Not NATO, not the UN - yet. But how does Congress react to Trump's deliberate isolation of the US in international contexts???

More like "PURE FUCKING STUPID AND DEMENTED". The really "pure fucking evil" are his puppeteers and fellow grifters, including 99% of Republican senators and congressmen, who are the brains behind the disasters.

She did not SIGN anything. What Trump touts as a "deal" is a loose framework, much of which is undoable (energy quota, investments, for example), that she 'agreed' to go forward with. Retaliating tariffs would hurt EU consumers more than the US, so it was a sensible first move on her part.
