Enemies Domestic and Foreign

Big couple of days for the latest iteration of America First.

On the international front:

  • We now have a Russian asset (at least) in charge of our intelligence apparatus.
  • Our abusive alcoholic Secretary of Defense has disavowed the concept of NATO and essentially acceded to Russia's negotiating demands in re Ukraine even before the negotiations' start.
  • Our definitely genuinely stupid and likely cognitively impaired president king has suggested it was a bad idea for Ukraine to get involved in Russia's invasion. He also continued to pitch timeshares in Gaza, but I suspect the (checks notes) King of Jordan isn't on board.
  • Some dumbass GOP Rep (redundant and I double dog dare you to prove me wrong) has introduced a bill calling for the annexation of Greenland and its subsequent renaming to Red-White-and-Blue-Land. (Google Maps is probably all over that, the collaborationist cowards.)
Domestically:
  • RFK Jr is one step closer to getting a bunch of us unnecessarily sickened and/or killed. Of all the madness around us, the Republican fluffing of a Kennedy stands out for its sheer unexpectedness, although to be fair the spectrum of unexpectedness has been stretched like Silly Putty lately.
  • President Musk wore a baseball cap in the Oval Office (thank God it wasn't a tan suit) and continues to use his son as a human shield while spewing drug-addled nonsense.
  • The Vice President and others, including a professor at Harvard Law (oh that conservative intelligentsia, what WILL they think of next), have suggested that the executive can just ignore judicial rulings at will. Except I guess when it involves student loan forgiveness.
  • (waves arms) EVERYTHING ELSE
We are now 1/52 of the way through this, assuming the Constitution ever gets consulted again.

I really hope all of this will have been worth it just to own the libs.
