In a complete reversal of National alliance and economic dogma, #Trump and #Republicans behavior appears to be now fully aligned with #Russia and #China.
If #Democrats fail to rebalance the US government in #election2026 then US Democracy is forever changed into a corporate oligarchy.
The remaining nations not aligned to Russia and China should join forces, make stronger alliances without the US to defend against the rise of the #Communist nations.

"2 Days Of Clashes And Revenge Killings In Syria Leave More Than 1,000 People Dead"
A preview of #USA future. If #MAGAmoron elevates himself to king, the sane will revolt. If MAGAmoron is overthrown, this is how his rabid sycophants will react. Either way, the US is in for a world of hurt.

Happy #Caturday from Jet. He took a break from his nap long enough to turn his head in my direction. Apparently that takes a tremendous amount of energy.
@zeri The UK should also send the USA a bill for providing two aircraft carriers to supplement the US Navy carrier force, and four extra Trident boats to pad out the Ohio class (numbers limited by treaty). Also bill Trump for all the tax he's been evading by means of his Turnberry golf course and other assets.
Mr Vance,
So sorry your child was threatened by protestors.
Almost as scary as being in Ukraine dodging missiles. Right?

"I told him I was an American citizen, and he looked at his other partner like, you know, smiling, like saying, can you believe this guy? Because he asked the other guy, 'Do you believe him?'"
"I voted for Trump last election, but, because I thought it was going to be the things, you know, like... just go against criminals, not every Hispanic looking, like, that they will assume that we are all illegals," Machado said.

If you're bald and you got a hair transplant, that's gender-affirming care. If you got a flat ass and you got a BBL, that's gender-affirming care. If you got a boob job or lip fillers, that's gender-affirming care.
Gender-affirming care is not limited to trans people. Everyone who feels the need to affirm their gender identity and expression through medical procedures receive gender-affirming care.
“MAGA extremists are unconcerned about reality in a moment where the mirage has overtaken everything.
This is a sick and demented world where the pimp/rapist Andrew Tate is welcomed to the United States, and cheered by young MAGA men. It is a world where a Jew hater named Kingsley Wilson is the Pentagon deputy press secretary, and the Ketamine- addled Elon Musk, who was elected to nothing, is cheered by the people who were for exercising powers given to them as he announces the birth of his 14th child.
Whether it is Trump’s cutting off Ukrainian aid, or the imminent deportation announcement of 240,000 Ukrainian refugees, or the cessation of food aid and AIDS drugs to the world’s poorest people, MAGA revels in its immorality and excess.
It has manifested a growing and growling menace to American liberty and world peace.”
