                How Republicans messed up on Project 2025
            
        
    
    
            โWhy are these terrible things happening? Drastic cuts in food stamps and health care programs were central planks in Project 2025, which is indeed the Trump administrationโs policy platform.โ

            Trump is a classic bully. He threatens leaders of smaller countries like Colombia and Venezuela, while blowing up fishing boats. WEAK. Yet, the TACO cowers at the feet of Xi, too petrified to pressure China into not purchasing Russian oil.

            Under Trump, Americaโs health has been placed in the hands of unqualified quacks. This could be calamitous if a crisis, emergency, or pandemic breaks out.

            Trump ignored the fate of Taiwan in his meeting with Xi. He would not say whether he supported independence for the self-governed island, which China wrongfully claims as its own. Clearly, Trump doesnโt care about democracy or freedom.

                Is the U.S. Losing in Vietnam? Russia, North Korea and China Are Gaining.
                
            
        
    
    
            Much of the region now worries that President Trump, who will be in South Korea this week for the APEC summit meetings, is pushing Hanoi further away, making Asia more dangerous by alienating not just allies but also newer partners.

                Transcript: Sen. Lindsey Graham on "Face the Nation with Margaret Brennan," Oct. 26, 2025
                The following is the transcript of the interview with Sen. Lindsey Graham, Republican of South Carolina, that aired on "Face the Nation with Margaret Brennan" on Oct. 26, 2025.
            
        
    
    
            I am aghast at Sen. Lindsey Graham suggesting a US attack on Colombia. This is a democratic US ally. How dumb and insaneโall because President Petro wonโt bow down and kiss Trumpโs fat orange ass like Graham does. Narcissism posing as foreign policy. Crazy!

            Failed @GovRonDeSantis is as stupid as he is callous. He wants people under 50 not to be able to see doctors when they are sick. How much do you want to bet his wife and children go to the doctor? Heโs as horrible a human being as he is a governor.

                Bannon Claims โThere Is a Planโ for Trump to Run for a Third Term
                
            
        
    
    
            Steve Bannon plots Trump coup in defiance of the U.S. Constitution. The American People say โHELL NOโ. The presidency is a constitutional office. The moment Trump steps outside the Constitution to stay in power heโs no longer the president.

            Trumpโs outrage against Colombiaโs President Petro has zero to do with drug policy. It has to do with Trumpโs malignant narcissism. Petro didnโt bow down and kiss Trumpโs snowflake โ๏ธ ass. So now a psychically wounded Trump is sending an aircraft carrier. Itโs petty and pathetic.

            Why is cocaine consumption so popular on Donald Trumpโs watch? He wants to blame Colombia for his own failure to stop Americans from snorting. His entire approach is to blame others for his incompetence and lack of coherent public policies. Sad.

            Itโs the American left that supports Ukraine, not the Putin-loving right. @Ukraine must understand our support is because Ukraine is a democracy that supports human rights. This must include LGBTQ rights. Opposing marriage equality would be very Russian.
