He doesn't care about national security. He saved TikTok because it serves his interest. TikTok is a major source of Trump memes and disinformation. With the announced deal, this will continue and likely increase.

For Trump, a military conflict with Iran would distract from:  -Sinking poll numbers -A devastating (and unpopular) budget bill -Harmful trade wars  -Unleashing the military on American soil -Millions of people protesting his authoritarianism We must remain on high alert. [Cartoon by Adam Zyglis]

So, is Iran where Trump proves that he does not always chicken out, as TACO contends? He is so petty and narcissistic that it is not beyond possibility that he would start a war to vindicate his fragile ego. I would hope for cooler heads to prevail, but there seem to be none around him.

Public lands are just that: public, and owned by the taxpayer. Republicans want to auction them off to the highest bidder to pay for their billionaire tax cuts. Hell no.

The sales would not include national parks, national monuments or wilderness, under the proposal that U.S. Sen. Mike Lee, R-Utah, included in the GOP's tax cut package.

If you're traveling to Europe this summer for a holiday, the value of the US dollar against the euro has dropped from 97 cents on election day to 88 cents today. It's one consequence of market induced tariff chaos. Thanks Trump.

Trump told cadets at West Point he had to leave because he had to deal with Russia and China and that was why he didnt shake every cadets hand. Then he went golfing. Tell me how any self-respecting veteran still supports this person.

This is still a bad idea. Section 230 protects platforms from frivolous claims arising out of user content. Trump wants to browbeat (and sue) platforms for content he doesn't like, which is a lot. Removing Section 230 will chill speech, not protect it. appleinsider.com/articles/25/...

The clock may be running out for Section 230
Nearly 30 years after it was created, and after 15 years of political wrangling about it, it's beginning to look a law that protects internet companies from legal action over third-party content is on...

Pritzker: You know, I was asked the other day if I could say one thing to Donald Trump, what would it be? And I said, “What does Putin have on you?” Everybody rational understands that Putin is trying to rebuild the old Russian Empire. And Donald Trump is literally handing it to him.

Last week, the CEO of Jack Daniel’s whiskey blasted Canada's decision to pull American-made spirits off store shelves in response to Trump’s tariffs. Now the industry is worried about retaliation by the EU. Maybe they should direct their anger at the genius who caused it all. Yes, that guy.

There’s reason they say, “[the] first thing we do, let's kill all the lawyers.” They are the one’s directly fighting against the madness. And the judges. The escalating attacks against them are not surprising.

This is a three alarm fire. Trump "doesn't comment on that." Won't. Republicans either parrot the talking points and are thereby complicit, or are completely silent. Only one high level narrative explains it, IMHO. Has irreversible damage already been done? www.youtube.com/watch?v=Zn9B...
