This is from today's newsletter by @phillipspobrien.bsky.social, telling it like it is. This is where we are. phillipspobrien.substack.com/p/canada-is-...

The US Cannot (and Should Not) Be Trusted By Any State

What the Canadians have discovered is that the USA cannot be trusted. This needs some discussion. All states lie and deceive. That is nothing new. Indeed, one element of successful diplomacy is the effective and well-placed strategic lie. However, if your entire policy is to lie, all the time and with malice, it makes a mockery of international relations.

Yet, that is precisely where the USA is now. It has reached the state where there is no national interest or even national policy. There is the will of a fundamentally dishonest president, often filtered through the mind of a 35-year-old stalker.

As I have said before, this means that the US government needs to be seen as a threat, not a friend, by other states, particularly those who are, or at least were, US allies. The US cannot be trusted because it is run by a dishonest criminal, and behaves as such.

The implications of this are massive and will run far beyond this Trump term of office. The US has shown that it will opt for a criminal to run it, even after that criminal tried to subvert a free election just a few years earlier. It has shown that within the USA there is a large and loyal pool of supporters for that criminal (say 33-38% of the country), who will follow said criminal even though he is openly corrupt.

In other words, a far too large percentage of Americans have shown that they will support and continue to support a criminal leadership. If they still support Trump now, they can and likely will support another criminal at another time.

"Researchers at McGill and Adolfo Ibañez universities found that spending time in nature, even briefly, calms and settles the brain, reduces stress and mental clutter and restores attention. Through the use of EEG and various Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) technologies, the effect is quantifiable"

Hey so, if you use Waymo driverless car services, you are aiding and abetting fascism. Waymo helps ICE agents locate people to terrorize and abduct. The company willingly shares all facial recognition, license plate and GPS data with ICE and other law enforcement agencies—no subpoena required.

Across NY & MD, I'm counting 12 Democratic incumbents who lost (or, in one case, are trailing) to a challenger to their left. —2 congressmembers (both NY) —4 state senators (2 in NY, 2 in MD) —6 state house members (5 in NY, 1 in MD) A thread to break this down.

Also, the US President threatened genocide, and too many people treated it as "bluster" or passed it off. This is normalizing what should never be normalized. And, the real people to suffer here are the Iranian people (courtesy of the USA). It is time for the US to pull out.

REI also outfitted ICE in Minneapolis this winter, in case you need another reason to stop shopping there. The thousands of feds were easier to spot at first because they very obviously weren't dressed for the cold, and that stood out. Then, they went shopping, and REI was happy to sell to them.

Apparently there was a city meeting in Hutchins, Texas, tonight. Hutchins is the location of DHS's newly announced 10,000-person concentration camp. What I've been told is that city officials were unanimously and adamantly opposed to it. Unfortunately, I'm seeing this nowhere online.

In Springfield, Ohio, people are preparing in advance of a “large deportation” promised by the president. To all appearances, the city is 2 or 3 days from a federal ethnic cleansing, grounded in a hate campaign organized by the vice-president and American Nazis. snyder.substack.com/p/ethnic-cle...
