I Said You Might Miss Out if You Blink...

But this is ridiculous.

Tonight, in the span of just a few hours, it has been revealed that:

• The Emperor bragged, insulted, then hung up on the Australian Prime Minister;
• That he threatened Mexico with the use of American force;
• That The Emperor really is trying to abolish the EPA;
• And that the Yemen special forces operation was flawed from the start because The Emperor "approved his first covert counterterrorism operation without sufficient intelligence, ground support or adequate backup preparations." -- which, by the way, highlights why you need really smart people in the White House to counteract the Pentagon's planners.

That's on top of the news from earlier in the day where:

• We found out that an American citizen -- an 8 year old girl -- was killed in that Yemen operation;
• The Emperor's team had directed the Pentagon "to explore ways the United States can challenge Iran in Yemen" -- didn't The Emperor sell non-intervention to those Bernie-or-Bust folks? -- on top of floating the possible use of force against Iran;
• His own team got into a fight over whether or not his Muslim ban was a ban or directed at Muslims despite spending the entire campaign calling for a ban on Muslims;
• Has apparently drafted a new EO that would deport legal citizens of the US if they were to make use of federal aid in any way;
• We discovered that neither The Emperor nor his spokesperson Sean Spicer know who Frederick Douglass is.

But wait, there's more:

• Tonight we also learned that Steve Bannon now expects the US to enter into two major wars -- one in the South China Seas and another in the Middle East;
• And The Emperor continues his rage tweets against everything and everyone;
• As a result of all this madness, we may yet see a mass exodus from the State Department (and others).

I leave you with one last thing to read following all of this craziness: Reuters has issued public guidelines on how to cover The Emperor, mirroring their current methods when covering authoritarian regimes around the world. We are already here.
