Yep. I still think that the most productive way to think about fascism and authoritarianism is via that lens. It’s bullying on a national scale.

Maybe, maybe not. China is not going to be a push over, in comparison to Greenland, Panama, or even Canada.

Exactly, but I suspect he’d go for a shortcut, which would be a nuke… although, China is also a nuclear power, so maybe not.

Yeah, for sure.

This is why I’m terrified. Who is going to stand up to him when he inevitably says “Why can’t we just nuke the [insert whoever he most recently saw dis him on TV]?” The fucking spineless Repubicunt bootlckers? The fucking nazi yes men who want to suck his tiny cock? The idiot billionaires with bunkers who think they’re above it all?

I don’t want to live in “interesting times” anymore, much less the end of days.

Not his Sec Def, who was hired on precisely for this reason. I can’t speak to how much leeway a president has for ordering a nuclear strike, but someone will have to stand up to him if he wants to do that, and Hegseth is not that guy…

For real, tho…

For some reason he didn’t do the same with Mexico. What’s different about that country?

Someone can correct my if I’m wrong, but isn’t Colombia a huge importer of US corn? I’m sure all those American corn producers that no doubt voted for Trump will love losing an important trade partner in addition to having their cheap labor deported.

They’ll get a bailout like the last time Trump was president.

Forced relocation violates international law. Of course they said no. Trump doesn’t care, but those countries can’t afford UN sanctions.

trump just signed an executive order to “take over all of California’s water resources”.

dump47 issues executive order to take over all of California’s water resources

Sunday, January 26, 2025 at 4:53:22p PST

Under the guise of supposedly ensuring adequate water to fight fires, drumpf is taking over control of California’s water. Here’s the order:

… the Secretary of the Interior and the Secretary of Commerce shall immediately take actions to override existing activities that unduly burden efforts to maximize water deliveries …

and

… notwithstanding any contrary State or local laws. The Bureau of Reclamation shall take all available measures to ensure that State agencies — including the California Department of Water Resourcesdo not interfere with the Bureau of Reclamation’s operation of the project to maximize water delivery to high-need communities or otherwise …

do we recall all the “states rights” shouted lies? this is really starting to feel like it’s revolution time to stop this insanity …time @#$!!
