I'm unfortunately someone whose sole source of news is Tumblr, which is great cause I never miss important events, but is also terrible because there's almost no context.
I wake up this morning and suddenly my home page is full of - Japan's ex pm assassinated??? Boris Johnson quit ???(along with like 90 percent of the cabinet????), Trump's being taken to court????
Like um are these events independent (and if so that's a huge coincidence) or did they all form a huge chain reaction and also wtf happened why did politics suddenly self combust all I see are memes and they give me no explanation whatsoever.

Trumper tantrums.
Tumblr media
March 27, 2023
Last week on MSNBC's The Last Word, Mary Trump, a clinical psychologist and Donald Trump's niece, pointed out that the range of emotions experienced by ordinary, stable individuals is not available to her uncle. On the contrary, she added, Trump's numerous psychopathologies restrict his emotional responses mainly to anger, self-pity, grievance and fear. Especially the fear of being humiliated and revealed as a pathetic loser.
Limited as his accessible emotions may be, they were all on display as the disgraced former president took to his failing Twitter knock-off, Truth Social, after the media reported he would soon face a criminal indictment by a Manhattan grand jury. Trump's rage, resentment and crippling anxiety were palpable as he blasted insults at anyone connected (or not) to the case — from DA Alvin Bragg ("a degenerate psychopath that truely [sic] hates the USA!") to chief witness Michael Cohen ("a convicted nut job with zero credibility") to financier George Soros ("radical left enemy of 'Trump'") who, as always, is paying for everything.
In one hysterical outburst, Trump accused Bragg of "doing the work of Anarchists and the Devil, who want our Country to fail.” Also, according to Trump's fantasy, President Biden is directing it all from behind the scenes because he's worried Trump ("who got more votes than any sitting president in history") will best him in 2024.
Biden wants to pretend he has nothing to do with the Manhattan D.A.’s Assault on Democracy when, in fact, he has "stuffed" the D.A.’s Office with Department of Injustice people, including one top DOJ operative from D.C. who is actually running the "Horseface" Witch Hunt.
And for those in his MAGA cult who can't read, Trump recorded a video, released on Truth Social, in which he fumed that "the most disgusting witchhunts in the history of our country" were being visited on "your all time, favorite president – me." Summing up the vast and far-flung conspiracy against him, he told his idolaters,
It’s an absolute disgrace. Whether it's the Mar-a-Lago raid, the unselect-Committee hoax, the perfect Georgia phone call that was absolutely perfect, or the Stormy "horseface" Daniels extortion plot…They’re all sick and it’s fake news.
Finally, with his caps-lock permanently stuck, Trump incited his mob to commit violence in his defense.
WE JUST CAN'T ALLOW THIS ANYMORE. THEY'RE KILLING OUR NATION AS WE SIT BACK & WATCH. WE MUST SAVE AMERICA!PROTEST, PROTEST, PROTEST!!!
As Trump moves closer and closer to actual, serious accountability for his many crimes, his public hissy fits are becoming more frequent, more desperate, and definitely more infantile.

Barely a day after former President Donald Trump was indicted for the third time, some Senate Republicans are already trying to undermine the credibility of the federal judge who was randomly assigned to preside over his trial.
Here’s a detail they’re hoping you won’t notice: They unanimously voted to confirm her.
Sen. Ted Cruz (R-Texas), speaking on his podcast on Wednesday, accused U.S. District Judge Tanya Chutkan of being “relentlessly hostile” to Trump and claimed that she has “a reputation for being far-left, even by D.C. District Court standards.”
But Cruz voted to put Chutkan into her seat on the U.S. District Court for the District of Columbia in June 2014. So did every other Senate Republican when she was unanimously confirmed, 95-0.
That includes Sen. Lindsey Graham (R-S.C.), who nonsensically claimed Wednesday that “any conviction in D.C. against Donald Trump is not legitimate.”
“The judge in this case hates Trump,” Graham said in a Fox News interview. “You can convict Trump of kidnapping Lindbergh’s baby in D.C. You need to have a change of venue. We need a new judge. And we need to win in 2024 to stop this crazy crap.”
Aides to Cruz and Graham did not respond to requests for comment on how the senators square their votes to confirm Chutkan with their criticisms of her ability to be a fair judge.
Tuesday’s federal indictment of Trump accuses him of serious crimes related to the 2020 presidential election and the Jan. 6, 2021, Capitol insurrection: conspiracy to defraud the United States, conspiracy to obstruct an official proceeding, obstruction of and attempt to obstruct an official proceeding, and conspiracy against rights.
Chutkan, a Jamaica-born former assistant public defender and an appointee of former President Barack Obama, has already been overseeing cases related to the Jan. 6 attack. She’s handed out some of the most aggressive sentences yet to rioters who took part in the violence that day. Of the 11 cases that have come before her, she imposed tougher sentences than those sought by the Justice Department seven times and matched what the Justice Department was seeking four times, according to an Associated Press review.
In all 11 cases, Chutkan sentenced the defendants to prison time.
This is what is likely driving the GOP attacks on Chutkan: They know she’s not likely to go easy on Trump now.
Beyond trying to discredit the judge, some Republicans, like Graham, are parroting Trump’s absurd demand for a change of venue. The former president has called for moving his case to the “more diverse” and “politically unbiased nearby State of West Virginia!” (Virginia and Maryland are much closer to D.C., for what it’s worth.)
Not a single Republican raised concerns about Chutkan during her nomination hearing in the Senate Judiciary Committee in February 2014. In fact, only one GOP member of the committee even showed up to the hearing: Sen. John Cornyn (Texas), who was only there to rave about a separate Texas judicial nominee on the schedule. He left before Chutkan was up.
Cruz and Graham were both members of the committee at the time.
Neither attended Chutkan’s hearing.

Just how afraid is he?
Tumblr media
December 1, 2022
When the FBI searched his Florida hidey-hole and discovered the hundreds of government documents — many of them top secret — he had purloined on his way out of the White House, Donald Trump told his glassy-eyed MAGA sheep at a rally in rural Minden, Nevada,
I had a small number of boxes in storage at Mar-A-Lago — very small, relatively — guarded by the great Secret Service. And yet the FBI, with many people, raided my house. It's in violation, by the way, of the Fourth Amendment, and many other things also.
To which former US Attorney Joyce White Vance rejoined, "In my experience as a prosecutor, people say stuff like this when they're guilty and scared." And if Trump was anxious then, he's positively petrified now that AG Merrick Garland has appointed Jack Smith as Special Counsel to oversee the DOJ's criminal investigations into his theft of classified documents and his part in the January 6 attempt to overthrow our government.
Smith is a Justice Department veteran who most recently prosecuted war criminals at The Hague. And Trump lost no time in pulling out the only club in his bag when threatened by anyone who would hold him to account: hurling overblown insults. Here he is on Truth Social, his social media platform.
Jack Smith is nothing less than a hit man for Obama, his Attorney General Eric Holder, and Andrew Weissmann [?]. Weaponization. Our Country is in big trouble, a real mess!
And again: “This fully weaponized monster, Jack Smith, shouldn’t be let anywhere near the political persecution of President Donald J. Trump.” It's worth pointing out that not only is Trump no longer president, but also that he appointed Smith to serve as an acting US Attorney in 2017.
So terrified (and stupid) is Trump that, in trying to pretend he’s relatively innocent, he actually copped to the crime.
When will you invade the other Presidents’ homes in search of documents, which are voluminous, which they took with them, but not nearly so openly and transparently as I did?
Trump's laughably over-the-top response to the Smith appointment demonstrates his panic-stricken fear at the genuine prospect that he will (at long last) face indictment and trial for his many crimes. Duty to Warn, a group of mental health professionals, concluded: "Trump is decompensating. Bigly. Fears for his future engulf him. He is isolated, paranoid, desperate." And scared. Really, really scared.

This is another great column by Dana Milbank about how Republicans are now mimicking Trump as they circle the wagons to protect him, how they are “weaponizing” the power of the House to try to interfere with Trump’s indictment, and how they are pursuing ridiculous “investigations” with their new House majority. 
The link above is a gift 🎁link, so you can read the entire article, even if you do not subscribe to The Washington Post.  Below are some excerpts on how Republicans are imitating Trump in his defense:
It’s no surprise that House Republicans leaped to Donald Trump’s defense after news of his indictment broke late Thursday. What was striking, though, was how many elected GOP officials now sound like Trump.
“Political Persecution,” Trump alleged in his statement.
“Political persecution,” parroted Reps. Diana Harshbarger (Tenn.), John Brecheen (Okla.), Claudia Tenney (N.Y.), and Paul Gosar (Ariz.).
“Blatant Election Interference,” Trump announced.
“This is unprecedented election interference,” echoed GOP conference chair Elise Stefanik (N.Y.).
“An attempt to interfere in our Presidential election,” echoed House Speaker Kevin McCarthy (Calif.).
“Witch hunt,” complained Trump.
“Witch hunt,” repeated Reps. George Santos (N.Y.), Lauren Boebert (Colo.), Ralph Norman (S.C.), Matt Gaetz (Fla.) and more, including House Majority Whip Tom Emmer (Minn.).
“Weaponizing our justice system,” Trump inveighed.
“Weaponizing,” chorused Majority Leader Steve Scalise and Reps. David Rouzer (N.C.), Austin Scott (Ga.), Rich McCormick (Ga.) and more.
Trump blamed George Soros. Reps. Wesley Hunt (Tex.), Mike Johnson (La.), Harshbarger, Gosar and Sens. Rick Scott (Fla.) and Ron Johnson (Wis.) blamed Soros.
They aped Trump in other ways, too.
In their vulgarity:
“Enough of this witch hunt bulls---,” tweeted Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (Ga.)
“This is complete and utter bulls---,” asserted Rep. Brian Mast (Fla.).
In using ALL CAPS:
“WITCH HUNT!” screamed Rep. Ronny Jackson (Tex.) and “Alvin Bragg is a NATIONAL EMBARRASSMENT.”
In demanding vengeance:
“Hunter Biden: Call your lawyers,” suggested Rep. Darrell Issa (Calif.).
“The House of Representatives will hold Alvin Bragg and his unprecedented abuse of power to account,” declared McCarthy.
“When Trump wins, THESE PEOPLE WILL PAY!!” tweeted Jackson.
In voicing deep-state conspiracy theories:
“The Regime occupying our country and systematically killing America is most afraid of President Donald J. Trump,” warned Gosar.
And in stoking paranoia among the unstable:
“If they can come for him, they can come for anyone,” tweeted Rep. Andy Biggs (Ariz.). [emphasis added]
Most prominent Republicans today seem to have no shame. Unless they are stupid, they have to know that Trump is guilty as sin of not only the Stormy Daniels payoff but of all the other charges being considered in Georgia and by the DOJ. 
But they don’t care.
Winning is everything for them, no matter the cost to their integrity.
