Maybe it's my bias showing, but something about your intro rubbed me the wrong way - mentioning Trump's social posts as a humorous aside without acknowledging how unprecedented and unhinged it is contributes to the widespread normalization of his extreme behavior. His recent post about Democrats being the "party of Satan" would have led to weeks of blowback from anyone else - previous presidents and candidates have been reamed for far less outrageous broad characterizations of their opponents - and this after Trump's acolytes just spent weeks lecturing their opponents about the need to stop dehumanizing their enemies - but for Trump it's literally just another Thursday.
But as always thanks for reporting on details of events that I didn't read elsewhere.
To be honest, I'm more interested in what's happening in Chicago right now than what *might* happen between Israel and Hamas, until something actually happens.
Geez Gabe. You said “ that’s classic, Trump, the power of positive thinking”. No, classic Trump is lying, bullying, revenge, tax evasion, cruelty, arrogance, and finally stupidity…..give me a break.
"Trump’s attempts to federalize the Oregon National Guard — or to deploy National Guard units from California or Texas to Portland — have been temporarily foiled by a federal judge."
Do I understand correctly that Trump is ignoring the restraining order?
