Trump always likes to have others do his dirty work for him in case, you know, someone could get killed and whatnot.

Our nation is again at war, not because we had to but because the president recklessly chose to.

Now we must recognize who pays the price: not the president and his wealthy allies, but service members and ordinary Americans.

Surprise! The Jeff Bezos-owned Washington Post is against my 5% billionaire wealth tax. I wonder why?

If enacted, Bezos would owe $12 billion in taxes, and an average family of 4 would receive a $12,000 direct payment.

Poor Jeff would be left with just $224 billion to survive.

You simply arrest, fine and release.

Seven Things to Remember as the Iran War Fog Descends How not to be distracted by the biggest circus of them all.

1. It’s all based on lies.
2. There will be blowback.
3. Killing a country’s leader is not β€˜regime change’.
4. The Trump regime also has many heads.
5. The Iran War splits MAGA.
6. The Iran War splits Democrats.
7. Our pro-democracy job remains the same. open.substack.com/pub/theconne...

Well that's not entirely true. He's entertaining the dunces that make up the core of his base. That's the only thing he's ever known how to do. For everything else he'll rely on the right wing manipulation machine that got him elected.
Beyond that foreign policy doesn't interest him. Ballrooms do.
