The orange #dementia patient is now #sundowning in the middle of the day.
The U.S. bond market - also known as Treasury bills, T-bills, or government bonds - got decidedly shaky this week after a period of growing uncertainty. Primarily because US #debt is exploding and it is becoming clear to even the dumbest observers that things cannot continue the way they are.
And the expression "If something can not go on forever, then it will stop" applies here, and what it means is the end of the US #dollar as the de-facto world reserve #currency.
So the US #Treasury has been doing more and more drastic actions to try to prop up that bond market. #Bessent, the new head of the Fed, started trying to massage the "yield curve" by buying back long-term bonds with funds from selling more short-term #bonds, and it worked for a hot minute. Then things got shaky again the next day.
I'll let the news reporters take it from here:
> Trump was asked whether he had spoken with Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent
> about "another type of intervention" after bond yields climbed back to multi-year highs.
>
> "The ultimate intervention is our military," Trump said. "And if we have to use that, we will."Dear USAnians: your demented president is now threatening to use the US military against ... the US #bond market?
Your mainstream media should absolutely not be able to #sanewash this stupidity, but they probably will.

TEHRAN - The Iranian government's official in charge of infrastructure in the country released a statement today, saying that the Strait of Hormuz will be closed immediately for urgently needed maintenance. The hinges on the gates have worn out much sooner than expected due to recent overuse, and need to be replaced. The Strait is expected to be repaired and back to regular closed status in two-to-three days.

BBC: Trump's speech on 6 January inflamed the crowd that was attempting a coup d'etat. [1] Here's some things he said.
Trump: BBC defamed me! I demand five billion dollars' recompense!
Trump lawyers: <file lawsuit for $5 billion against BBC and various related orgs> This damaged his brand and reputation and all his many businesses and hurts him economically in a multitude of ways.
BBC: This was never broadcast in the US and has nothing to do with these other orgs.
Judge: What BS is this?
Trump lawyers: Oops. <dismiss other orgs from suit>
Trump: Ten billion! Arglebargle bUt HeR EMaiLs aNTiFa lock her up mumble <snore>...
Trump lawyers: At least ten billion, your honour.
BBC: Okay, so to respond to that we need the financial records from all these businesses that Trump claims were damaged financially.
Trump lawyers: <panicking, tears> Oh no! No, they don't need to see Trump businesses' financial statements! They just need to take us at our word.
BBC: <snort>
Judge: Horseshit.
Trump lawyers: <pee down leg>
BBC lawyers: <steak dinner>

[1] It wasn't a "riot", and therefore the participants were not "rioters". It was an attempted self-coup, or a putsch.

So the US is warning that Iranian state actors are "hacking' US power and water infrastructure and causing disturbances.
They say this like it's unfair, that it somehow crosses a line.
The US has been loudly, proudly bombing civilian infrastructure like power and water for some time, with constant threats of ramping it up further.
Seems like a case of the chickens coming home to roost rather than an unthinkable escalation.

An excellent editorial from the Globe & Mail:
> But Mr. Trump does not behave according to any rational calculus.
>
> It isn’t just that he has no understanding of policy, nor any knowledge of history to guide him;
> or that he conforms to none of the norms of custom, morality or law. It is that, even understood
> as a wholly self-involved, self-serving bundle of id, one whose only motive is self-aggrandizement
> and self-enrichment, Mr. Trump is incomprehensible. His actions make no sense even in terms
> of rational self-interest. It’s all just random impulses, fleeting grudges, synaptic burps, based
> on who spoke to him last, what he saw on TV or what he had for breakfast, for all I know.It's about how Canada shouldn't even try to appease him, because it doesn't matter - no matter what concessions we make, he's gonna do whatever he wants. And I've been saying that since he got back into the office and eliminated all the adults in the room that kept his first administration within spitting distance of normality.
Worth a read. Imagine any major US paper printing this.

So apparently Dipshit Donnie thinks Canada isn't managing our forests properly. We should be cleaning them out more.
Dipshit Donnie has no idea what Canada is like.
Dipshit Donnie has never even considered the possibility of a forest where the nearest road is 100 kilometers away - or further.
Dipshit Donnie can't think in terms bigger than a golf course. So of course you can "manage" it.
I would like to drop him in the middle of the remotest part of our most remote forest in the entire North, and invite him to re-evaluate his assessment of the wildfire situation.
I wouldn't tell him we'll be pointing the bears at the spot where we drop him.

This "51st state" crap just keeps coming back. I'm sick of it.
It's never going to happen voluntarily. There are some nutjob separatists who think they want it, but there aren't nearly as many of them as they think they have.
And Canada isn't going to be taken by force, either. If Mango Mussolini thinks the US military will cakewalk into Canada, he hasn't been paying attention to how well that's going for his friend Putin. I'll be resisting, even if it means I have to throttle invaders with my bare hands.
Sorry, just venting.

There's also the fact that the whole tariffs nonsense is due to Trump not understanding the difference between a trade deficit and a budgetary deficit. He only knows the latter, where "deficit" equals "money you lost".
It's the same with his nonsense about other countries emptying their mental institutions and sending the residents to the USA - he doesn't know that people claiming asylum are not, in fact, from mental asylums.
He's an idiot who can't stand to be corrected or instructed.
On tariffs and other trade impediments... he's gonna do what he's gonna do. Modifying your behaviour to try to earn goodwill from him is a fool's errand. Canada's leadership would do well to internalize that.

Marco Rubio said he's going to "dismantle" the International Criminal Court.
I'm sure the Nazis who were tried there post-WWII would also have liked to dismantle it. The only people with an interest in shutting down the International Criminal Court are International Criminals, and they know it.
Hang the lot of them.

So the man who illegally stole and kept documents classified as Top Secret and Eyes Only and NOFORN and then stored them in boxes in a disused bathroom accessible to the public now wants the US intelligence community to give him a written list of every intelligence agent in the land.
I see no possible way that this could go wrong.
