The White House account has posted an image of an eagle attacking a Canada Goose. What they fail to have realised is that the still is taken from a nature documentary which shows, when watched in full, that the goose fought back and the eagle gave up.

You can’t make this shit up!

On Bald Eagles, we discussed this a while back.

Trump just gutted the law that saved American bald eagles from extinction - Fast Company

He is far from being a friend to wildlife.

That is obscene.

Dolly said specifically that she remained apolitical when she was alive. That's an abuse of her specific wishes and is frankly appalling.

I'm choosing to see that as her leading him into the great beyond as a last act of service to us all. You just know she'd do it with a smile.

Fair enough. Doesn't make it not true, though.

I'll be honest that when - despite all that happened 2016-2021 - Trump was re elected, then to use a phrase "The die was cast". Every supposedly bonkers thing Trump has tried he has got(ten) away with. Either with the collusion of congress and/or the Supreme Court.

I am more that happy to be mistaken in my suggestion that there is no precedent in the history of modern democracy (which I shall arbitrarily class as staring in 1689) for the behaviour of any head of state that compares with Trump.

"A republic ... if you can keep it"

I definitely like that interpretation!

I wonder if there are US plans to take control of the canal by force ?
They probably look like this

"Proposal to seize the Suez Welland Canal"

and are written in proper English. Not a bigly in sight.
