Operation Epic Fail: so much losing, U.S. media's bad job --
Do people see this? Before Trump's idiotic war on Iran it was free for ships with goods coming to the U.S. to travel through the Strait of Hormuz. Now, we're going to have to pay. So much losing. www.ms.now/opinion/trum...

"Trump can’t sue Iran or declare bankruptcy, like in business. He can’t bully them like some of his domestic targets. Interstate war is the highest level of competition — there’s no system to manipulate, no entity that can bail him out.... That leaves surrender. For real this time."

US media generally has done a terrible job of covering the negotiations surrounding Hormuz, which have been covered well in other media. Why is that? Because Iran holds the upper hand and Iran is using its leverage to humiliate Trump. It's about that simple. www.bloomberg.com/news/article...

The Malignant Fascist's betrayal of global democracy. . . --
"If America won’t stand up for international norms, others need to step up. Canada, France, the U.K., Germany, Australia, New Zealand—wherever—must take the mantle of liberal democracy and stand up to bullies." A shocking thing to be able to write.

. . . and a new imperialism under the lawless criminal MF --
This is diabolical. Trump appears ready to just start drilling for oil in an allied country, despite explicitly being told not to.

The stain of Todd Blanche --
Last night, the GOP members of the Senate approved Trump’s effort to destroy the rule of law in the US, wreck the Justice Dept., enable rampant corruption, defend pedophiles, and attack the president’s enemies. And they know they did those things. An egregious violation of their oaths of office.
— David Rothkopf (@djrothkopf.bsky.social) August 8, 2026 at 8:25 AM
Todd Blanche won nomination and confirmation by showing his willingness to corrupt the Justice Department to be Donald Trump’s personal sword and shield. I still think the American people will prove too strong a match for this corruption in the end, but if our democracy is to die, this is how.

Sen. Bill Cassidy's legacy of shame --
Bill Cassidy gave us RFK Jr. Now he gives us Todd, Blanche as attorney general. What a legacy. He obviously doesn’t believe in an afterlife.

Comrade Trump --
Trump is using the power of the government regulatory state to coerce companies into turning over huge ownership stakes in their businesses to the federal government while calling Democrats communists.
