I do not share John Bolton's foreign policy vision — at all — but when he said, in reference to Trump's weakness toward Putin, "They're drinking vodka straight out of the bottle in the Kremlin tonight," he had a point. www.msnbc.com/rachel-maddo...

Trump is far from done telling Putin what the Russian leader wants to hear
“They’re drinking vodka straight out of the bottle in the Kremlin tonight,” Trump’s former national security advisor said. “It was a great day for Moscow.”

Tonight I have my first meeting with the cover designer for the followup to the book below. Time is short, so I'm trying to figure out a reasonable timeframe to finish Proof of Devolution: The Long Hard Fall of Elon Musk. It'll be the most bracing history of the man ever written. In the meantime:

Proof of Destruction: The Musk Insurrection As It Happened (Book 1, The Musk Trilogy)
Elon Musk’s insurrection is the worst attack on our government since the Civil War. What’s being done by unelected rogue operators in D.C. is an assault on democracy more dangerous than January 6.

This entire "press conference" was as embarrassing and pathetic as anything I have ever witnessed. Does frump really speak publicly at all any longer? Musk is now WH Chief of Staff, Press Secretary, and, of course, the Boer-ing Afrikaner Presidential Personal Care Assistant. Frump is not all there.

Their brazenly overt corruption is absolutely mind-blowing. Musk to trump, "$100M for you, $100B for me, $100B more for me ..." with trump interupting musk, "don't forget Mr. Putin's cut. $100B?" Musk sighs loudly and mutters "Oh yeah. For sure. Now where were we? Oh yeah, $200B for me ..."

I cannot believe you even need to say this. Why is it dangerous to allow a single private citizen to control the U.S. Treasury? Greed, stupidity, retribution, prejudice, jealousy - the list goes on. And a drug addicted megalomaniacal Nazi?!?

Anyone curious why Judge Merchan couldn’t at least have considered imposing a 3-year jail term suspended until noon on Jan 20, 2029, when the defendant would again become merely Citizen Trump? Why no concrete consequences at all? Surely not because he might try to hold onto office indefinitely!

Mexican President Claudia Sheinbaum responded to Trump’s proposal to change the name of the Gulf of Mexico by pointing to a 17th century map of greater Mexico and suggesting a new name for the US. “We are going to call it América Mexicana. It sounds pretty, no?” Trump is a global laughingstock. 🤣

Killing a russian general without injuring a single civilian is wrong and violates rules of war (according to Keith Kellogg). But striking ukrainian cities and civilians with missiles every fucking night is a new norm already. How did we get here? What kind of world is it? #ukrainianview
