“&quot;A whole civilization will die tonight, never to be brought back again.” — Donald J. Trump, April 7, 2026 Three quick thoughts: (1) Has any president of this country — or for that matter, any leader of a liberal democracy — ever threatened the destruction of a “whole civilization” before? (2) The line between the so-called “madman theory” and an actual madman is quite thin, isn’t it? (3) It really was a bad idea to entrust this man with the nuclear button, wasn’t it?” https://open....

Agreed “When I asked Jim what the executives should’ve said to the Trump officials when they asked for free air time, he responded bluntly, “Fuck you!” Jim’s point is that, “these are the public’s airwaves. They’re not the president’s airwaves. They’re not the Republican Party’s airwaves,” adding, “They’re not FCC chair Brendan Carr’s airwaves. They’re the public’s airwaves.” https://open.substack.com/pub/deanobeidallah/p/jim-acosta-networks-should-not-air?r=ce00&amp;utm_medium=ios

This could’ve been a quote from Trump, easily indiscernible, but it’s from Gogol’s “Diary of a Madman” “Today is the day of great triumph. There is a king of Spain. He has been found at last. That king is me. I only discovered this today. Frankly, it all came to me in a flash.” Nikolai Gogol, Diary of a Madman and Other Stories, born on this day.
