Analysis: Foreign leaders turn the Trump sycophancy up to 11 | CNN Politics
It’s not exactly news that foreign leaders – much like their counterparts in the United States – have concluded that flattery is a necessary prerequisite to doing business with President Donald Trump.

I think it’s fair to say we’ve just witnessed the end of the first American republic. I don’t believe that’s the end of American democracy, but it will require a reconstruction—or a reconstitution—to begin again.

The Big Brutal Betrayal is one of the worst pieces of legislation ever perpetrated by the Congress and may be their worst action since failing to convict Trump for his two impeachments.

The administration has kicked the hornet's nest of the world's largest state sponsor of terrorism at precisely the same moment it has gutted many of our most critical counter-terrorism resources. Stunningly foolhardy. We are at greater risk today than we were yesterday.

As others have said, the greatest transfer of wealth in US history will not be from the Boomers to their children but from them to the US healthcare system. The US is designed to make people insolvent and to keep them poor once they're there.

The Hunter Biden story is a perfect encapsulation of what’s wrong with American media: Is it a story? Sure. But every newspaper in America devoting front page headlines to Hunter fucking Biden while Trump appoints a cabal of rapists, racists and con-men to positions of enormous power is MADNESS.
