Happy Sunday friends!

Donald Trump is mad. The No Kings protest was a peaceful, rousing show of force across geographic and demographic lines, and the president of the United States is reacting precisely as one would expect from a collapsing malignant narcissist.

Trump posted an AI video of himself dumping shit on protesters—wearing a crown. And this morning Trump “Truthed” a threat against Colombia, deliberately misspelling it in a show of scorn and dominance.

When a collapsing narcissist receives a blow to his ego, like 7 million people peacefully demonstrating their disapproval, he will always resort to grandiosity, projection, and shows of dominance. That’s why Trump is building a triumphal arch for himself, filling the Oval Office with gold, and firing artillery over a freeway.

Trump’s unilateral aggression against Colombia and Venezuela are not random. As I’ve been reporting for a year, the intent of the people behind Trump—the PayPal broligarchs in particular—want an American Technate that stretches from South America to Greenland. This is the map they are trying to make a reality. And this is why they don’t want reporters in the Pentagon.

Simultaneously, Trump told FOX that he’s already conceded territory to Putin, because he’s “won certain property.”

BARTIROMO: Did you get any sense from Putin that he’s open to ending this war without taking significant property from Ukraine?

TRUMP: Well, he’s gonna take something. I mean, he’s won certain property.

We are witnessing the world being carved up by psychopaths who cheated their way into power—deviant men who believe they have a right to reorder the world to suit their own egos.

Despite the massive show of peaceful resistance yesterday, just this morning Trump threatened the Insurrection Act again and, when asked if there was a “conspiracy” against him, called himself the “chief law enforcement officer of America.”

“I haven’t used it, but don’t forget, I can use the insurrection act. 50% of the presidents almost have used that. And that’s unquestioned power.”

There are no kings in America, but there is a mad king—a wannabe monarch collapsing into a symbolic world who thinks that his power is “unquestioned.”

No. We the People showed yesterday that there are plenty of questions about his power; I still believe that in the end, the power will never be his, the power will always be ours.

Please join me today at Noon PT / 3PM ET to talk about No Kings, the collapsing regime, or whatever else is on your mind. We have a smart, active community and it’s always great to connect with others who still see the world clearly. Hope to see you! Details below.
