writes Ron Filipkowski on bluesky. "An hour in to the NATO summit and Trump has already made a complete ass of himself on the world stage again, trashing our closest allies for decades while praising Putin and Erdogan and ranting one lie after another."
And that's how the corporate media should be reporting trump's performance at this NATO summit. You know they would be if Biden had done an eighth of what trump is doing on the world stage.
Instead we get sanewashing language like "tensions are high" at the NATO summit. No, What's happening is a total %%##$$ show,
with trump saying he would take out a "restraining order" against one of the leaders a couple of days ago and devolving from there. I haven't even heard journalists calling out the lies.
And there seems to be complete silence about his ninety minute phone call with Putin on our nation's 250th birthday.

The stain he has left on the US will last for many years as people will rightly ask "How was this allowed to happen?"

(343 posts)is right on another searing expose that Biden was . . . gasp . . . OLD . . . , along with a companion piece about how Obama demeaned the office of the presidency by wearing a tan suit and bowing to the Japanese Emperor. However did the Republic survive? (sarcasm)

(4,270 posts)Sorry, I thought it was so over the top it would be recognized as such.
But it's not that far from the one-side-only presentations expounding on vacuous RWNJ conspiracy theories they come up with regularly on Faux.
But they're just, you know, "asking questions"

(7,003 posts)A few minutes ago I did exactly that about the scaffolding in front of the WH. I believe they plan on replacing the columns. WTAF! How is this allowed to happen?
Grim Chieftain
(2,396 posts)he is a temporary occupant of the White House? It's the people's house - our house. Why will no one step up and say "NO"! Unreal.

(7,003 posts)Mr. Dahlia put it well - He is a temporary resident, and yet he is making permanent changes.
Grim Chieftain
(2,396 posts)He is destroying our historical buildings. He has torn up the White House inside and out. He paved over the rose garden out of pure jealousy and vitriol because Jackie Kennedy was instrumental in its existence. The east wing is gone, the Oval Office looks like a cheap brothel, the reflecting pool is ruined, and on and on.
What he is doing - destroying national treasures and monuments - should be considered criminal, yet he gets away with everything. He doesn't own these buildings, they belong to the American people. I am stunned that no one stands up to him and says NO!
I feel like we are living in the Twilight Zone. Nothing makes sense.

(19,977 posts)decoded the NATO acronym as the "North American Treaty Organization" instead of the North Atlantic Treaty Organization.The headline, which read "A North American Treaty Organization Without America?", was spotlighted by journalists on X (formerly Twitter). The New York Times Communications department quickly acknowledged the glaring mistake and stated an official correction would be printed

See a Nazi, kill a Nazi?
or did they do nothing to aid in the overthrow.
America is in the "Do Nothing" stage. We are unhappily waiting for the midterms.
250+ years ago, today's Americans would do nothing!
We really don't want freedom that badly any longer.
Done in by chump. How fucking pathetic. Suckers and losers!
