‘A sickening moral slum of an administration’

I couldn’t decide which headline to highlight this morning. The headline above on George Will’s Washingtron Post column – or this headline via AlterNet: “What’s going on?’ Trump posts ‘hundreds’ of times an hour in overnight Truth Social spree.” …. In their own way, each headline conveys  the moral madness going on at 1600 Pennsylvania Ave. … Sorry to sound like a TDS sufferer, but this entire administration is just plain nuts. … 

And, please, spare me the “Biden did it too” emails. …

Update — 12.5.25 – Re the moral-slum nature of our sink-’em-all policy in the Caribbean, from the WSJ’s editorial board: “Congress is investigating whether the Trump Administration fired on defenseless survivors on a drug boat, and the emerging details suggest this story is less than it initially appeared. But the episode still carries lessons about command accountability and larger questions about the Trump war in the Caribbean.”

From Dan Kennedy: “Don’t fall for shifting media narratives about Hegseth’s responsibility or the Nuzzi-Lizza mess.”
