I was so embarrassed during #Trump's 1st term but now I dont think there's a word to describe the level of humiliation I feel being an American which is f*cked up bc there was a time when I proud of my country. Obv. I NEVER voted for him but I still feel I need to be apologizing to the world 24/7. 😒

Bolton on Trump Venezuela plan: β€˜I don’t think he understands anything’ John Bolton, a former national security adviser to President Trump, said he doesn’t think the president grasps the specifics of the situation in Venezuela in the wake of the U.S. capturing it…

Of course #Trump has no clue ... Not exactly breaking news but still ... πŸ€¦β€β™€οΈ

Carlos Beltran’s Hall of Fame Candidacy Presents a Complex Moral Quandary Beltran was the mastermind of the Astros’ sign-stealing scandal. The fourth-year Hall of Fame candidate is likely to be elected this year, but should he be?

2/2 reason that we have different penalties for felonies vs misdemeanors in our judicial system. #Beltran cheated but not in the same way as PED users. I'll admit since I dont have a vote I never thought about it too thoroughly b4 but its an interesting point. #Astros #MLB

1/1 Until now despite his undeniable talent & career stats, if I had a #HOF vote I prob wouldve said I wouldnt vote for #Beltran, he's a #cheater, after all, but Verducci makes an interesting point that has me rethinking my initial auto reaction. He says that theres a

Ok, that was my first assumption as well ... that it would trigger article 5.

I'm not a politician or constitutional scholar or foreign policy expert ... but I would assume it would, right?! This is so much worse than just embarrassing ... although it definitely starts there! πŸ€¦β€β™€οΈ

If we attack Greenland that activates article 5 of the NATO charter and NATO will have to defend it against the United States. That could be Trump’s justification for leaving NATO. Heck, he might even claim they kicked us out.

Trump Has Started Carving Up the World. Now It’s Putin and Xi’s Turn. Fiona Hill warned in 2019 of a β€œstrange swap agreement” involving Venezuela and Ukraine. Seven years later, here we are.

I've been busy with my own life, but here are my initial thoughts on Venezuela. The practical upshot: Greenland, Canada, NATO, and the EU should all be extremely worried, and take immediate action to ensure Trump doesn't continue a policy of Anschluss and Lebensraum. newrepublic.com/article/2048...

A Mole Infiltrated the Highest Ranks of American Militias. This Is What He Found. Outraged by the Jan. 6 Capitol riot, a wilderness survival trainer spent years undercover climbing the ranks of right-wing militias. He didn’t tell police or the FBI. He didn’t tell family or friends....

I can see why this was #ProPublica's most read story of the year!

The tale is harrowing yet one of incredible bravery and fortitude and the hero of the story certainly picked the right person to write it because it was so well written!! Please do yourselves a favor & read it .... propub.li/4qlWrDN

Trump just issued threats to attack Mexico, Cuba, Colombia, Iran, Venezuela (again), and Greenland (which would be an attack on all of NATO).

Screenshot of a post by Acyn on X summarizing comments by Representative Dan Goldman. The post states that Goldman criticized the justification for pursuing NicolΓ‘s Maduro on drug trafficking charges, calling it bogus and noting that the Honduran president was recently pardoned for similar offenses. Below the text is a television news still from MSNBC’s The Briefing with Jen Psaki. Dan Goldman appears on screen in a studio or remote setup, wearing a dark jacket and light shirt, speaking directly to the camera. A nighttime city skyline with illuminated buildings is visible behind him. On-screen graphics include a red β€œBreaking News” banner reading β€œMaduro arrives in NY to face drugs and weapons charges,” along with Goldman’s name, title, and MSNBC branding.

The White House would like us to forget this, but we will not.
