People saying Trump is dying or possibly dead, but I for one would urge caution, because it is quite possible a second healtbar will appear as he enters his second phase and a gargantuan centipede will burst forth from his torso, so be careful of his new sweep attacks and toxic buildup from bites.

Fascism is here. We are not “getting closer” or “in danger of.” This matters because it frames our discussion: We aren’t trying to prevent it, we’re trying to defeat it. It’s not taking over our institutions, it’s taken them over. Otherwise, we’re always behind, fighting a past we’ve already lost.

I am grieving the barbarism that is going to unfurl from all this. People are going to die. Livelihoods gone. All to feed a corrupt kleptocracy. I see every day up close how different it is from the first time around. There are no guardrails. A disaster. I’m sorry we have to live through this.

Since May: Federal district courts have ruled against Trump admin 94% of the time. Supreme Court has sided with the Trump admin 94% of the time. A judiciary at war with itself.
Bar chart titled “The Supreme Court vs. The Lower Courts: Rulings on the Trump Administration” showing three horizontal bar charts for May 1-June 23, 2025. Federal District Courts: large red bar (82 cases, 94.3% against) with tiny green bar (5 cases, 5.7% for). Circuit Courts of Appeal: medium red bar (15 cases, 68.2% against) with smaller green bar (7 cases, 31.8% for). Supreme Court: tiny red bar (1 case, 6.3% against) with large green bar (15 cases, 93.7% for). Shows dramatic reversal from lower courts ruling against Trump administration to Supreme Court ruling for it.

Do not socialize with redhats. Do not invite them inside your home. Do not go on dates with redhats. Do not hold the door open for them. Pretend you cannot hear their questions or requests. Pretend you cannot speak English. Stare at them blankly. Every single interaction with them is now a fight.

If the _only_ thing we got from the EU and all the membership fees paid were the longest period of peace most European countries have been fortunate to enjoy, the money would’ve been extremely well spent. EU is a peace project first and foremost - but so much more too. Our last, best hope even?

The story of Trump is not the story of a dictator savant, it's the story of a society whose elite power centers are all rotted from within and collapse at the slightest push. Very hard to know right now if there are any load-bearing walls left.

 reads, "I'm favorite sign from yesterday's protest." The accompanying photo shows a person at a protest holding a sign that says, "IF KAMALA WAS PRESIDENT WE WOULD ALL BE AT BRUNCH" written in bold red letters. The protest takes place on a city street with other demonstrators in the background, some holding additional signs, including one with a red and black design. The crowd is dressed in winter clothing, suggesting a cold day.

It was an extremely productive call, we agree on many things, and will be meeting immediately after Canada’s upcoming Election to work on elements of Politics, Business, and all other factors, that will end up being great for both the United States of America and Canada.
