David Waldman gets us to the weekend, normally the time the crazy really cranks up.  Anymore, it’s normally crazy, crazy is the new normal, and you don’t want to be caught acting normal, or people will think you’re crazy.

Donald K. Trump wants the US to start celebrating our victories, including our imaginary ones. It beats fighting imaginary wars with our imaginary enemies. We are now in a forever war with Venezuela but aren’t starting to bomb them yet.

At least, no bombing runs have been announced on Michael Waltz’ Signal account. Waltz’ Signal hasn’t been shut down though, Waltz and the crew have only moved their leaks to a different department.  

Steve Witkoff has been put in charge of endangering the world. Marco Rubio gets all the Jared Kushner jobs this time around.

From Ukraine to slashing U.S. institutions, Trump plays into Putin’s hands, yet did Peter Navarro save democracy by destroying the economy? But wait! The economy might rebound just in time to fund the Trump dictatorship! Either way, friends of Trump, that is, friends of Trump’s graft will be sick of all the winning.
