Dump Term 2, 1.01: Sleep Now in the Fire

Extraordinary quote from the German president about Trump/Vance's ambush of Zelensky: "I would never have believed that we would ever have to defend Ukraine from the United States.” https://www.nytimes.com/2025/03/01/world/europe/trump-zelensky-us-ukraine-russia-meeting.html

It's a good time to point out to people who "used to look up at the US" that historically, the US has done plenty of hypocritical things to not look up to.

No. This was something different. This wasn't a case of hypocricy or American Exceptionalism or ignorance or arrogance leading to screwing others over for American self interest.

This was petty, cruel and entirely about Trump. This was betraying not just an aly in Ukraine but all of our allies in Europe simply to foster a world that can be run by mob bosses and kingpins. It did nothing to promote American interests, and only served to make evryone in the world except Putin and his allies less safe.

This American "administration" is a bad actor in every sense on the world stage, and should be treated as such by any nation that values democracy.
Just as any other anti-democractic nation would be treated.

That's not really what I meant.

I meant that the US has done so many things in the past that we should not be looked up on.

I get this was a very different level of the US being stupid. Very different level. Who knows if we can ever make this back up.

Almost the entire federal apparatus was built out in FDR's first term. Everything domestically is fixable. Our status as the lone superpower distracting everything is over.

Eh, Moulton wouldn’t even be in my top 10 for 2028. He’s absolutely right in that video, but if I want a “centrist” candidate, I don’t want it being a white guy from Massachusetts.

As a white guy from Massachusetts, I endorse this message.

OPM is supposedly looking to cut workers at the Portsmouth Naval Shipyard, one of four public shipyards owned and operated by the US Navy. Portsmouth does maintenance on the Navy's growing nuclear attack submarine fleet and is currently being expanded to handle more and newer submarines.

CBP is detaining german tourist for over 1 mo because they accused her of intending to tattoo for $$ while in US. In jailing her to deport, they held her in solitary for 9 days, also kept her from her return flight Feb 15. She's still jailed. CoreCivic+CBP ⬆️ 💵...

By order of Hegseth: “Kristen Geist, the first woman to graduate from the Army's grueling Ranger School, has been erased from some of the service's social media and its publicly accessible media database, the Defense Visual Information Distribution Service, or DVIDS.”
 
Melanie came here and posed nekkid for money, so what's the big deal?

Maybe if this Korean girl would let Donnie grope her, she'd be set free.

Local construction company(Cianbro) is in the process of building a huge new dry dock facility in Brewer, they ship it in pieces to Portsmouth. Its a massive undertaking. I wonder if it will be stopped
 
Oh, and that picture of L'il Marco slumping in his seat while Donnie and JV were tag teaming Zelensky? Here's his actual tweet after the meeting was over.

What a simpering little ass-kisser.

"Thank you @POTUS for standing up for America in a way that no President has ever had the courage to do before. Thank you for putting America First. America is with you!"
