Historically, Moscow has exercised colonization strategies to expand its "control" of neighboring lands it occupied through aggression. Since 2014, Moscow displaced 100,000s of Ukrainians in Crimea and sent in as many Russians to colonize the land for Putin. This is similar to what hapoened in Mariupol since 2022, and to Donetsk and Luhansk in the 1800's after large ore and coal deposits were found.

It's unbelievable that Kagan and Sotomayor sided with Alito and Thomas on anything!

What a great embarrassment for America. No US President was as narcissistic, mercurial, ill-mannered, and infantile as #47.

But the biggest American embarrassment is how great American suddenly institutions like Congress, SCOTUS, Library of Congress, and the Dept. of Justice have flipped their switches to becoming tools of this authoritarian lover of dictatorships.

The world is reeling with shock how its rock-solid pro-democracy ally has changed its stripes. It is now a vile, back-stabbing, superiorly militarized unpredictable loose cannon. America is now further from being "Great" in anyone's definition.

Now when global observers describe Trump's submissive government this is what they perceive:

"Sick America. Wrong-way America. One-Way America."

Not the way to make America "Great". It's foul-mouthed President has scammed so many Americans that the rest of the free world is simply stunned.

The drumbeat of faux patriotism" gets louder day by day. It sounds like a tune they marched to in Munich in 1932.

How is it that Ohio, the state that has been the home to more presidents than any other can also be home to some of the mist extreme MAGA legislators like Jim Jordan and VP Vance?

Putin is a nut who has been responsible for over one million deaths In his lifetime. He is dangerous. PRC's Xi leads the globe's most creepy surveillance state that demands social conformity of 800,000,000 people in his country.. Iran's Grand Ayatollah could murder tens of thousands of his own citizens in the streets of Iran or proxy states with ineffective pushback.

But none of these are as reckless and indifferent to people in general as the Trump family. Rules are obstacles for them to break as they please. And with billions in ill-gotten wealth, and with the largest arsenal on earth at their disposal and a cowed Repugnant Congress enabling his every foolhardy desire, the damage he already wreaked might not yet compare to his dictatorial rivals, but over 50,000,000 Americans have suffered to some extent by his dictates, and the security of billions around the world is every day at risk due to Trump's capricious whims.
