Dutch talk-show host Lubach put together an absolutely savage takedown of Disney after they bowed down to the Trump administration to take Jimmy Kimmel off the air
At number 8 – Weakening our alliances around the world. Distancing ourselves from fellow democracies and embracing dictatorships.
Making our foreign policy transactional, or worse, dependent on paying tribute to the president.
And making us all less safe.
I just left the Senate floor where I laid out the top ten ways Donald Trump is wrecking the country.
Every American should know the facts about this administration – so here they are:
(Thread 🧵)
1/ Trump has been conned by Putin. Russia isn’t a global superpower—its GDP (~$2 trillion) is smaller than Italy’s and about 1/15 the size of the US. 🧵
Russia isn’t Stalin’s USSR. Russia is a relatively small economy - 1/12 of Europe combined. Russia is not a super-power and only Trump can - or would be naive enough - to turn it into one.
The US is engaging in a flamboyant theatre of self-destruction - trashing the economies and democracies of its allies along with its own. And as it cuts away all its own foundations Trump’s supporters trumpet self-inflicted collapse as 🇺🇸 statesmanship, vision and strength…

Yesterday this post blew up. Tons of you asked about the workflow behind it, so I’m breaking it down in this thread. Honestly, it’s super simple for how epic it looks.
I would like to reiterate Ukraine’s commitment to peace.
None of us wants an endless war. Ukraine is ready to come to the negotiating table as soon as possible to bring lasting peace closer. Nobody wants peace more than Ukrainians. My team and I stand ready to work under President Trump’s strong leadership to get a peace that lasts.
We are ready to work fast to end the war, and the first stages could be the release of prisoners and truce in the sky — ban on missiles, long-ranged drones, bombs on energy and other civilian infrastructure — and truce in the sea immediately, if Russia will do the same. Then we want to move very fast through all next stages and to work with the US to agree a strong final deal.
We do really value how much America has done to help Ukraine maintain its sovereignty and independence. And we remember the moment when things changed when President Trump provided Ukraine with Javelins. We are grateful for this.
Our meeting in Washington, at the White House on Friday, did not go the way it was supposed to be. It is regrettable that it happened this way. It is time to make things right. We would like future cooperation and communication to be constructive.
Regarding the agreement on minerals and security, Ukraine is ready to sign it in any time and in any convenient format. We see this agreement as a step toward greater security and solid security guarantees, and I truly hope it will work effectively.
Wow. This is one of the best AI hybrid commercials I've ever seen.
Rufus Blackwell shot this partially live-action (opening and closing shots) and did a ton of keyframe AI animation.
They probably saved $100K and four weeks of VFX work by doing this as a hybrid commercial.
"That's an absolute farce."
