    11/ Riconoscere che l'ondata nazionalista e autoritaria ("sovranismo") è manifestazione di problemi reali non richiede in nessun modo dare legittimità alle posizioni politiche della destra radicale o al nazionalismo economico, né legittimare squadristi e putsch.

    Trump's coup failed because he is himself, and was always going to do that: 'dans les Coups d’État, on voit plus tôt tomber le tonnerre qu’on ne l’a entendu gronder dans les nuées.' (Gabriel Naudé, 1639) [in coups, one sees the lightning strike before one has heard its rumble]

    I fatti di Washington quantomeno chiariscono l'importanza del dibattito sulle prossime strategie, e il New New Deal. La lezione vale anche per l'Italia, e non è ovvio, per esempio, che un rimpasto per includere Boschi e Orlando aiuti granché. Bisogna parlare dei problemi di fondo

    John King nails it: pentagon chief Miller statement refers to coordinating security measures with VP Pence and congressional leaders but NO mention of Trump. He is president in name only. Time to go!

    I am drawing up Articles of Impeachment. Donald J. Trump should be impeached by the House of Representatives & removed from office by the United States Senate. We can’t allow him to remain in office, it’s a matter of preserving our Republic and we need to fulfill our oath.

    The peaceful transfer of power is the cornerstone of every democracy. A lesson once taught to the world by the USA. It is a disgrace that is undermining it by inciting violence and destruction. Dear Senators, dear Representatives, stay safe! We are with you.

    But if NATO sec-gen chose to speak, it's less a farce than it seems

    Of course, one does not know if Trump's one is an attempted real self-coup or just a one-day farce.
