Donald and his goons have found a loophole of sorts in the Insurrection Act, in order to use the U.S. military against its own people. Because there is indeed an insurrection going on, although led by the President against himself, his semi-legitimate government and American democracy in general.

If you had asked me five years ago "What country's leader in 2025 would most people want to have a beer with?" I never in a million years would have said Ukraine. And yet, here we are. What a fucking guy, man. I wish my country elected leaders like him. Victory to Ukraine.

Trump wants to be an autocrat like Vladimir Putin—and that starts with collecting cowardly oligarchs who pay you to be kind to them. He has that. Now he's moved on to trying to create vassal states like Russia has Belarus. He wants Ukraine to be a vassal state and is enraged that Zelenskyy refuses.
