Trump is now at war with Marjorie Taylor Greene, because she wants to release the Epstein files, whereas Trump himself wants to… … release the Epstein files.
My heroine this week is ABC’s White House Correspondent Mary Bruce who asked the Saudi-Arabian Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman what Saudi-Arabia was doing at The White House, after Saudi-Arabia’s involvement in both 9/11 and the killing of Washington Post journalist Jamal Khashoggi. May her courage inspire us all. image
The Social Democrats were butchered in yesterday's local elections in Denmark. The party was halved in several municipalities, and for the first time in more than 100 years, The Social Democrats lost Copenhagen, where The Greens (SF) will now reign. After current prime minister Mette Frederiksen became party leader in 2015, she moved the party from a center-left to a center-right position, and turned the party anti-immigration. This angered socialist voters, who are moving to The Greens. 1/2
I believe I just coined a #NewTerm: Offensinitis, noun β€” a mental condition that makes a person overly focused on everything that can be misunderstood, especially in short posts on social media, where brevity makes it impossible to always express everything in a perfect, unmistakable way. Example 1: He suffered from offensinitis, so they never got to talk about the substance of the matter. Example 2: The cure to offensinitis is to ask questions instead of immediately assuming ill intent. 1/2
In just 23 seconds Trump claims the term "The American Dream" is 1 word, 2 words, and 3 words. This is not the fast, well spoken populist we saw in 2016.
Tuesday’s local elections in Denmark have the party Dansk Folkepari on the ballot. Their policies are: β€” Jewish schools must be closed β€” Kosher food must be made illegal β€” Jewish headgear must be banned in public sector jobs β€” Citizenships less than 20 years old will be reevaluated β€” No new citizenships given β€” Social benefits only for Danes CORRECTION: In the above I replaced their use of Muslim terms with Jewish terms to prove a point: This is pure racism.

According to Trump, Chinese company Bytedance could not own TikTok, but when American billionaire Larry Ellison wanted in, Trump approved. According to Trump, the Swiss company Gunvor could not take over the sanctioned Russian oil assets in Europe, but now that the American company Carlyle wants in, Trump approves. We are on a dangerous path, if sanctions are no longer a tool to ensure peace, but a way for Trump to ensure his sponsors get to buy the world at a discount. Wake up EU!
While NATO countries are sanctioning Russia, Turkey has played a key role in helping Putin circumvent our oil sanctions. While we are sanctioning Venezuela, Turkey has helped Venezuela circumvent sanctions against Venezuelan gold companies. And while the EU faces severe migration problems, Turkey has actively facilitated migration towards Europe. Who needs enemies when we have a friend like Turkish president Recep Tayyip Erdoğan.
