Conservatives were upset with the lack of diversity, equity and inclusion in the Super Bowl halftime show. 😆

"Let me say this more clearly: what is happening right now, in America, in real time, is a coup."

"This is an information war and this is what a coup now looks like."

"Musk didn’t need a tank, guns, soldiers. He had a small crack cyber unit that he sent into the Treasury department last weekend. He now has unknown quantities of the entire US nation’s most sensitive data and potential backdoors into the system going forward."

🇺🇸 Trump secretly expanded envoy Stephen Witkoff’s role to open a backchannel with Russia, per NYT.

Witkoff, originally appointed as a Middle East envoy, has already spoken with Putin’s allies and discussed Ukraine in Saudi Arabia & Qatar.

@AlliFlowers @samlitzinger Psychopaths don't feel like having to ask for others' permission to do as they please, however disastrous the consequences may turn out.

Even worse, with Trump we're seeing a dementing psychopath.

"...
He is showing marked deterioration in impulse control and judgement.

This represents a unique danger because of Trump's pre-existing Malignant Narcissistic Personality Disorder. As he continues to deteriorate he will become even more erratic, impulsive, paranoid, and aggressive than he already is. A demented malignant narcissist as president of the United States would have unimaginably catastrophic consequences.

Not only is Trump unfit, but he cognitively incapable of carrying out the duties of president. Under normal circumstances, relatives of such a patient would be seeking consultation with experts, and considering long term care, as he continues to deteriorate.

I have a question about our orange wannabe dictator's statement about reversing Biden's ban on plastic straws.

Did Joe Biden ever ban plastic straws and if not why does our media, both social and mainstream, repeat his claims without that disclaimer?

All, I've found is that the National Park Service proposed phasing out single-use plastics for their vendors by 2032.
