Communism Spawning in America
Arise, Sir Karl Marx, from your verdant abode in #HighgateCemetery! Your legacy, #Communism, is not dead. Several European countries, including those formerly part of the #USSR, have abandoned your revolutionary ideology, but you will take comfort in knowing that it remains a (feared) significant political force in the United States of America.

The Decline of America
Cobb makes a succinct case against #RealEstateorTrump. Aside from the economic damage worldwide and at home, the US has now lost its global credibility to influence foreign denizens and governments. For example, it can now hardly issue (even sanctimonious) calls on human rights or corruption in other countries with a straight face.
#SoftPower takes years to inculcate in foreign psyches; #HardPower makes an immediate impression. The bottom line is that the US has unwittingly given an imprimatur of sorts to #autocrats, and even tin-pot dictators, to do as they please. The American government today can no longer take moral stances on a gamut of issues, of which it itself is bereft.

The Decline of America?
I took this photo in 1977 from the ferry to Staten Island. It was a fading, drizzly day, the skyline hazy and laden with clouds (and pollution?). 48 years later, this fading, sepia-toned image of the Call to Liberty somehow mirrors the dimming of #AmericanIdeals under the weight of polarisation, a slew of greed for power and wealth, and a diminishing capacity for empathy.
P.S. Given my views on Geo-Political/Social developments expressed here, I very much doubt that I would receive a US visa in the current climate. Sigh! (There are still two experiences left I wanted to have in the good old USA!) #USinDecline #StatueofLiberty #UStourism #StateDepartment

Trump the Messiah
1. It is the United States of America in the year 2025.
2. #WHSpiritualAdvisor's comments mirror #SpeakerJohnson's remark yesterday that "I'm grateful to God for being able to get this Bill done. Our rights did not come from the government; they came from God himself".
3. In effect, if you put this assertion together with #WHSpiritualAdvisor's comments, you have #RealEstateorTrump as, at the least, the Messiah of God.
4. The history of America is studded with rising, thriving and dying cults. Now, it may have another on its hands, but this time, it is centred in the White House and US Congress, not in the American outback. #AmericanCults #Messiah

#ZohranMamdani ‘s stunning victory in the Democratic primary in New York mayoral polls against Andrew Cuomo tells us all that Donald Trump is hopefully just an egregious aberration.

USA: High and Low
Upon reflection, America is powerful and pervasive, persuasively preaching high morality, yet simultaneously acting hypocritically in pursuit of its self-proclaimed values. Hence, America cannot be ignored, but it is challenging to precisely place on the scale of global influence.

Mad Man in the (W)House?
For the first time since 2015, when #RealEstateorTrump entered the spotlight in American politics, I have questioned the veracity of a Trumpian post, which in its depth of malignant narcissism and megalomania is beyond anything he has written before. GROK reaches a 'maybe' conclusion, so I still do not know. But if he did write it, then even a blind (American) Freddy can see that there is a madman in the (W)House? #GROKcomment: I cannot verify the authenticity of this post with certainty based on my current capabilities, as it would require analyzing the X user profile and post in detail, which I am unable to do without searching. However, the post appears to be styled in a manner consistent with Donald J. Trump's typical language and tone, including the use of superlatives ("wonderful Treaty," "Great Day for Africa"), self-referential claims, and repeated mentions of not receiving a Nobel Peace Prize.

Truman, Trump - Nuclear Option
@caitoz , for the record, #Truman strongly opposed #GeneralMacArthur's recommendation to use nuclear weapons during the #KoreanWar. MacArthur, supported by anti-Chinese hawks in Washington, advocated their use to counter China's numerical superiority. Truman, supported by FDR remnants, was wary of escalating the conflict into a war with China or the Soviet Union. This disagreement continued until Truman dismissed MacArthur in April 1951.

Racism in Trump's USA
The United States of America is close to scraping the bottom of the racist behaviour barrel. In effect, this order by #StephenMiller, the #Goebbels_reincarnate, authorises grabbing anyone who 'looks' like an illegal immigrant. Presumably, the vast majority of those who 'look' like illegals would be non-white. There are tales from Germany in the 1930s, when Gestapo and ICE-like arrested people because they 'looked' like Jews. Stereotyped antisemitic perceptions of #JewishFeatures included hooked or aquiline large noses, red or curly hair, beady eyes and gesticulating mannerisms, among others. In America in 2025, it is simpler: just having a black or brown skin in low-end shopping locations will suffice.

Stephen Miller reportedly ordered ICE agents to disregard plans to target criminals and instead, round up individuals at places like Home Depots and 7-Elevens, regardless of criminal history or citizenship status. He even made bets on how many people could

Politicisation of State Institutions?
This is how the #politicisation of the armed forces starts. Judging from their opposition to #MilitaryParades, I imagine that the likes of #Eisenhower and #Montgomery (and, perhaps today, #MilleyRt.) would bar such adulation by army personnel. In a sense, while armed forces' support for the regime of the day is mandatory in, say, Russia, China, DPRK, etc., this performance in America appears to be voluntary and is, therefore, of serious concern

Echoes of George Kennan in Trump's Doings
It is improbable that @DeveloperTrump , who boasts of not reading books,
has ever heard of George Kennan, Truman's Ambassador to the Soviet
Union in the late 40s. Kennan is famous for his 1946 "long Telegram", which
prescribed how the US could "contain" the Soviet Union and its aggressive
policies to spread the Contagion of Communism worldwide.
Some elements in Trump's (incoherent) foreign policy approach echo
Kennan's cold and precise scripts. In 1948, Kennan wrote:
"We have about 50% of the world's wealth, but only 6.3% of its population.
… In this situation, we cannot fail to be the object of envy and resentment.
Our real task in the coming period is to devise a pattern of relationships
which will permit us to maintain this position of disparity. … To do so, we
will have to dispense with all sentimentality and day-dreaming; and our
attention will have to be concentrated everywhere on our immediate
national objectives. … We should cease to talk about vague and … unreal
objectives such as human rights, the raising of the living standards, and
democratisation. The day is not far off when we are going to have to deal in
straight power concepts. The less we are then hampered by idealistic
slogans, the better."

As an outsider's passing thought, it recalls Lincoln's words that “a house

Black Saturday: The Day the United States Ceased to Be a Constitutional Democracy The Moment Democracy Ceased to Function 🧵1/10: Saturday, March 15, 2025, may have seemed unremarkable to most Americans. But in time, history will remember it as Black Saturday—the moment the United States ceased to function as a constitutional democracy. For the first time in modern American history, a sitting president openly defied a direct federal court order—and nothing happened. No intervention. No enforcement. No consequences. A legal ruling was issued, and the White House simply ignored it. The White House’s Decision: Power Over Law Inside the White House, the decision was not about law—it was about power. A federal judge ruled against the administration. The debate inside Trump’s team was not whether the ruling was legal, but whether they could get away with ignoring it. They decided they could. And they were right. This was not a clash between equal branches of government. It was the moment the judiciary was exposed as powerless. The courts do not have an army. They rely on compliance. But a court that cannot enforce its rulings is not a court—it is a suggestion box. And a presidency that can ignore the courts without consequence is no longer constrained by law—it is an untouchable executive. Trump did not declare the end of judicial authority in a speech. He demonstrated it in practice. This is how democratic systems collapse—not with a single act, but with the normalization of defiance, the expectation that a ruling can simply be brushed aside. https://theintellectualist.com/black-saturday-us-constitutional-crisis-2025/
