"What Donald Trump has made very clear is that no matter what's written on paper, no matter what laws are passed by Congress, there are no permanent commitments or alliances, as far as he's concerned," @sbg1.bsky.social says.

"I think it's extraordinary to fire the head of the Army, the largest branch in the military, during a war and not related to the war itself, right? [Gen. Randy George] did nothing wrong within the war, and so I think it's extraordinary, raises real questions," said Idrees Ali.
"If you're in the hunt for coherence, you're covering the wrong administration," said @sangernyt.bsky.social. "[Trump] pulls back when it looks like he could be in a confrontation with a nuclear-armed country, ... or get involved in something on the ground that he can't control."
"Nineteen minutes long, that address was from the White House. It really was basically a 19-minute-long Truth Social post instead of a meaningful strategy for why [Trump has] taken such a consequential decision that has plunged the global economy into turmoil," said @sbg1.bsky.social.
Can it be argued that Iran has won the war by surviving and keeping control of the Strait of Hormuz? "I think it depends on who you ask — who’s winning or who’s losing. Certainly, you can’t say the United States has won the war, as President Trump has said," said @amnanawaz.bsky.social.
Would President Trump try to take Greenland in some way? "I think he's going to get something that he can call taking Greenland. He'll get bases," said David Ignatius. "I think Europe has really now dropped any willingness to accommodate Trump's bullying on Greenland."
David Ignatius, foreign affairs columnist for The Washington Post, joined moderator Jeffrey Goldberg to discuss the global consequences of America’s unpredictability, including the current state of negotiations with Iran.
"If Iran would have been successful, it's highly likely, I'm told by people close to [Trump] that he already would have been in Cuba. So, it's the successes that he feels like he has had over and over again is perpetuating this image of this godlike image," said @lacaldwelldc.bsky.social.
@lacaldwelldc.bsky.social: “With the Greenland situation, when I was talking to Republicans on Capitol Hill, this is really the first time in the second Trump administration that I got a lot of anger — privately, of course — from House Republicans. ... But they were afraid to say anything publicly.”
"One of the reasons Minneapolis has stood up to this — what they call an 'invasion' of their city — is because they’ve had practice," said Toluse Olorunnipa. "It’s a city that has a long tradition of activism, and that tradition was supercharged by what happened in 2020."
"The Supreme Court told the President of the United States very clearly, if you want these tariffs, get Congress to pass a law to issue these tariffs," said @sbg1.bsky.social. "He's trying to bypass the way our system is supposed to work."
"Daryl Morey is the most overrated general manager in the history of the NBA. Excuse my French, he don't know his ass from his elbow" – Chris Russo
