The U.S. president is a maniac (who also doesn’t know the difference between “reign” and “rain”).

America may be done for.

Could my loathing of Donald Trump be any deeper?

(Probably.)

I’m all for lower drug prices, but this will hurt #patients most.

#Trump sets 100% #drug #tariffs on companies that haven’t lowered prices

Makers of patented #pharmaceuticals can escape the import tax by agreeing to join Trump’s “most favored nation” program to reduce US drug prices or by establishing new factories to serve the #US market….

She is bad, #Blanche is far worse.

#Trump fired AG #PamBondi, acc/to a person familiar, removing the nation’s top law enforcement officer as his frustration with her job performance deepened. Trump has been souring on Bondi for months, especially because of her handling of the #EpsteinFiles, which has become a political liability for Trump among his supporters. #ToddBlanche, the deputy attorney general [#DAG], will be acting AG, the person said.

“Bondi Fired as Attorney General”

Good riddance.

Todd Blanche is even worse, of course. That’s the Trump way.

It should be a rule of journalism that every time Lindsey Graham is shown sucking up to Trump, this video must be played:

It’s one thing to change your mind.

It’s something else to betray your own basic sense of decency and ethical norms.

It stuns me reading and seeing all the mainstream media stories that Trump’s speech is covered as if it were given by a normal president.

It was in fact an incoherent mess of bragging, recriminations, lies, vague promises and general nonsense delivered by a mumbling idiot caked in orange make-up.

Watch it if you don’t believe me.

Until these rants are covered accurately, I don’t have much hope for American media.

Trump’s declaring victory (which he hasn’t achieved) and quitting, which is about the best we could hope for at this point.

He accomplished almost nothing.

US to leave Iran 'pretty quickly' and return if needed, Trump tells Reuters - https://www.reuters.com/world/middle-east/us-leave-iran-pretty-quickly-return-if-needed-trump-tells-reuters-2026-04-01/

“President Donald Trump has said he feels an “obligation” to watch in person as the US Supreme Court weighs his powers to impose tariffs on much of the world. If Trump does, he will make history as the first sitting president ever to attend oral arguments at the nation’s highest court.”
