This literally looks like the shit Albert Speer designed for Hitler’s Berlin during WWII that was supposed to stand for a thousand years but never got built for some reason.

How I wish this was an official statement released by the President of Australia, but I know it’s not. Whoever wrote it sums up the USA very nicely, thank you.

Yes, this. Like the other deplorables who are turning on Trump, MTG is still a deplorable. They just miss the good times when MAGA was all about white supremacism, concentration camps, and gunning down protesters in the streets. It’s still about that but now there’s this messy stuff and it’s hitting them in the grift and they don’t have warm feelings in their tummies about Trump anymore.

But if it any of this gets voters to peel away from the R’s and improves some election results, that’s good.

I think “it” probably refers to one of these.

Not quite real, it’s my exaggeration (for comic effect) of what really happened—the Pentagon warned representatives of the Pope that he needed to “get on board” with Trump’s war effort, and were “unpleasant and confrontational”. Here’s Newseek’s reportage of it; many other sources have reported the same thing. Unbelievable.

I think it's a bit more nuanced than that. From the reportage I've seen about their meeting, US Dept. of War officials implied to Papal representatives that there are a few different possible ways forward:

They kidnap Pope Leo (Maduro-style) and hold him captive at a new papal enclave at Mar-a-Lago; or

They declare Pope Leo to be an antipope, excommunicate all Catholics who fail to denounce him, and proclaim a new Pope who will reside at Mar-a-Lago and who will either be chosen by, or will actually be, J.D. Vance; or

They kill the Pope.

This is horrible. I wish you safety bg—may you be safe, and may you feel safe in your home. But that second one may be hard to come by. And that sucks.

I recommend that you and every tenant who’s affected by his dangerous behavior document every single incident, and report it all both to law enforcement and to your landlord, and to any other relevant agencies you have in California that I don’t know about. I think the higher the volume of incident reports they get about this guy, the better.

And do that of course, without letting the crazy guy know that you’re doing it.

If anyone thinks that’s bad advice please say so? It’s what I’d do in that situation, but what do I know.

And needless to say (you know this) don’t provoke him or attract his attention at all. Sometimes asshole neighbors need to be dealt with by neighbors, but crazy violent assholes need to be avoided and dealt with by professionals.

Wishing you peace and safety.
