Trumpβs Best Foreign Policy? Not Starting Any Wars
He has my support in 2024 because I know he wonβt recklessly send Americans to fight overseas.

It is FAR MORE important that people debunk the accusations of terrorism, on which the political fight pivots, than focus on implications for US citizens IF this precedent holds.
As I said: Stewart Rhodes remains an adjudged terrorist. But Trump freed him and deported Abrego Garcia, who is not.

It was a tough read early on this rainy/snowy morning in the North Atlantic corner of the US but helped me make sense of all my outrage...and pointed to a direction we can go.

Donald Trump has disgraced the United States of America in countless ways since he first entered political life ten years ago.
But he had never disgraced the nation as badly as he did today.
He has brought shame on this country to an extent I had never thought possible. And he has only just begun.

It's not because of immigrants, trans people, the βdeep state,β or any other bogeyman trotted out by the GOP.
It's because big corporations and billionaires have rigged markets and siphoned off most of the economy's gains

If the expiring provisions of Trump's 2017 tax law are extended, the richest 1% would receive an overwhelming share of the benefit.
Shocker.
As this tax scam blows up the deficit, it will be used as an excuse to cut the social safety net for everyone else.
