What a clear demonstration of their attitude towards anything and everything non-MAGA. "Trash to abandon and walk past, with the hopes that the government will clean up their mess, and blame it on someone else.".

They're like locusts. They descend on a place in a swarm and leave behind devastation.

The Financial Times: America’s accelerating exit from itself (Evernote link)

It has been widely observed that the speed of America’s democratic slide surpasses that of other “elective autocracies” such as Narendra Modi’s India and Recep Tayyip Erdoğan’s Turkey. But that understates Trump’s impatience. Others have shifted to authoritarianism with relatively fast growing economies, which makes it easier to sustain public support. Trump’s trade war and his “big beautiful [budget] bill” will rob most Americans of income growth. The idea that the disaffected middle will therefore clip Trump’s wings in next year’s midterm elections is quixotic. Having silenced most institutional dissent within his first nine months, what could Trump accomplish in the next 14?

Der Postillon (German version of The Onion) again:

Trump demands Pope to immediately canonize Charlie Kirk

Washington, D.C. (dpo) - Will millions of believers from around the world soon be praying to Saint Charlie? Donald Trump today clearly called on the Vatican to immediately initiate the canonization of Charlie Kirk. Otherwise, the US President reserved the right to take military action.

"I told the Pope that he must canonize our dear Charlie as soon as possible," Trump declared. "And the Pope had better listen to me. He's an American, and I'm his President."

If the Pope did not comply with Trump's wishes, the 79-year-old threatened airstrikes by the US military: "I've heard the Vatican is a tiny country defended by just a few guys with halberds. His Holiness the Pope should be wise and do the right thing."

As a sinless person without any blemish, Charlie Kirk is the perfect candidate for canonization. "Besides myself, there may not be anyone as holy as him," Trump said. "Except that he had to die. I think I'll go straight to heaven myself, which is a little more exclusive. But Charlie should be holy, better today than tomorrow. Holy Charlie! That sounds great, doesn't it? Holy Charlie, protect us! Did I tell you about my new ballroom for the White House? So, listen..."

According to the US Department of Defense, the US government has given the Vatican a 48-hour ultimatum for canonization.

I'm actually surprised Trump has NOT at least said in passing that Kirk should be a saint. I'm sure there are some right wing American Catholics who would like the idea... Never mind Kirk wasn't Catholic and performed no miracles. He also spent a lot of time arguing that all the "nice" parts of scripture didn't mean what they say they mean.

Trump showed immodiately.he gives absolutely zero though about Kirk when he pivoted to the ballroom talk.

The grifters are on duty. They're ALWAYS on duty.

App for snitching on Charlie Kirk critics leaks user data
Snitches get… snitched on. And sold, by the looks of it. "Cancel the Hate," an app conservatives are using to help identify and harass people who criticize or mock far-right influencer Charlie Kirk, leaked users' data and preceded an "influx of donation requests."

Described as part of a "broader effort among conservatives to punish those who have criticized Kirk" after he was shot dead at a college speaking event in Utah, the app appears to function as a database of both targets and users. It was hastily produced by a conservative activist previously known for selling "fentanyl testing kits with Roseanne Barr, vaccine skeptic Dr. Robert Malone and right-wing journalist Lara Logan."

Ah, you forgot Trump's #1 rule: "Thou shalt have no other Trumps before me!"

This is worth the watch - at least the part about Kirk's shooting. This is my favorite Youtube channel for politics.

It transpires that the former marine who murdered at least four people at the Mormon church shooting in Michigan yesterday and wounded eight others apparently had a Trump sign outside his house, and had signed two state petitions in recent years associated with conservative causes.

If it transpires that this is some sort of demented retaliation against Mormons because one of their number is the alleged murderer of Charlie Kirk, some people might find that rather embarrassing.

This will get blamed on the left anyway, but yes, many dedicated evangelicals consider Mormonism to be a heresy. The fact most Mormons are conservative doesn't stop this belief.

Yeah I saw an amusing Reddit discussion where someone asked if Mormons were Christians and one snarky reply was all "Just Google" with a screenshot from Wikipedia saging yes, and other was actually answering that yes, technically but many Christians do not consider them to be Christian.
