Hot Take: An Iranian nuclear weapon is no more dangerous than a Pakistani, Indian, Chinese or American nuclear weapon. Countries with nukes get really careful.

Hot take: AI slop is no worse than the low effort human slop it replaces.

This war is awful. Iran, Israel and the USA have all committed war crimes.

"I wanted to take it. And do you know, we're modest: that is, we have it; there are only a couple of very small places left there." Hitler describing the battle of Stalingrad 2 weeks before the devastating Soviet counter-attack.

It looks like ICE is becoming a domestic spying operation to facilitate widespread suppression of dissent. No fly lists, refusal of security clearances, a cut off of federal benefits, employment blacklists, tax audits, deportation. Bringing the whole government down on people's heads.

Gassing peaceful protesters tells everyone that protesting is a crime.

The Trump regime is tearing things down but has nothing coherent to replace them.

Trump's revolution seems like a juggernaut today. But he's trying to achieve in months what better politicians took years to accomplish.

Some days it looks like the bad guys are winning.

I said earlier today that Trump needs to stop the elections or lose. Duh. He doesn't care what happens in the election, he will steal it afterwards. But it still has to be close.

History is a sum of the choices we make. Small choices in great volumes change the landscape of history.

Last week I talked about the straw that would break the camel's back for Trump. I wasn't expecting a 50 ton weight dropped from orbit.

I've watched some amazing things on Television since the 60's. Several revolutions, Watergate, Apollo 11. But I've never felt anything like the immediacy of these events online. It's like crack.

The old order is breaking down. The struggle now is for what comes next.

I hope this isn't inside the bubble thinking, but it felt like the wind changed this week. Wednesday outside the US, inside today.

Donald Trump has the whole world wrapped around his finger. Nobody could possibly pull this off for long.

Jews were only 1% of Germany's population in 1930 and many Germans didn't know any. Everyone in America knows immigrants.

Davos was Trump's greatest achievement so-far. He can't look at anything and not see his face. He speaks, 100 million people shit their pants.

There's a huge fall-off in energy tonight. I think everyone around the world is exhausted.

People who won't be defeated can't be defeated. Look at Ukraine.

Hubris creates nemesis. ICE is creating the resistance that will break them.

This NYT report from Minneapolis shows why Trump and ICE have already lost this war. THIS is why I'm optimistic about America. www.youtube.com/watch?v=zctf...

The people around Trump aren't going to depose him with the 25th amendment. They are going to keep him going as long as possible while they exercise power.

050

Joan @churchfieldlass.bsky.social · 21/01/2026

Just realized when Trump says "we", "us" or "The United States", he means "me".

Joan @churchfieldlass.bsky.social · 20/01/2026

Despite my criticism, I love the USA. Problems like Trump are temporary. I have a lot of faith in the American people. I saw the civil rights revolution in the 60s.

Trump's Greenland letter will force many in Washington to think about a quiet, de-facto implementation of the 25th amendment.

Trump was always going to fail through overreach. Going after Powell was a fatal mistake. He's threatened the value of assets denominated in $US. Nobody will say anything, but his political capital has evaporated with the rich and powerful.

Joan @churchfieldlass.bsky.social · 15/01/2026

Is it just me or does it feel like things are building towards a climax? That a few more weeks like this will bust something wide open?

Joan @churchfieldlass.bsky.social · 10/01/2026

The diff between now and 1914 is that they didn't know what a world war was. We do and are cautious.

Joan @churchfieldlass.bsky.social · 10/01/2026

The thing is that Trump is enabled by system collapse, like in the 30s. If he wakes up dead tomorrow, the fractures he exploited are still there.

Every day the news from the day before is irrelevant.

The US doesn't need Greenland for its long-term security. Trump needs it as a long-term distraction.

America is in a Rules Don't Apply To Me phase. Status is what you can get away with.

What would US Foreign Policy look like if Tony Soprano was running things? We don't have to wonder anymore.

Trump's revolution has failed. That, unfortunately doesn't mean it's over. There will be many more casualties before he's done. He was defeated by individual resistance and the courage of federal judges and their staffs.

2 PM Christmas day 2025 in downtown Toronto. Apart from the low hum of an idle city and the bells tolling the hour, I'm home alone and can hear nothing at all. A surprise moment of silence and balance in a very unbalanced year. A wish of inner peace and kindness to everyone who reads this!

It might not be obvious, but the Trump class of battleships is 100% hallucination. No ships will ever be built. People haven't built battleships in 80 years because they are as useful as cavalry.

The world’s biggest welfare system? The US defence budget. It shovels taxpayers money to corporate profits in an enormous wealth transfer grift.

A key to Trump's rage at Comey et. al. is because he knows he had to lie cheat and steal to get ahead and thinks everyone else does the same. It infuriates him that he gets charged and they don't. He knows they are guilty because he knows he is guilty.

There was an important shift in US politics in the last 2 weeks. Trans people used to salt for the red meat. Now they are the meat.

The biggest winner so far in Trump 2.0? Richard Nixon's reputation.
