I think when Trump talks about the US being the "hottest" country, he is imagining he's behind the velvet rope of a club he owns, deciding who gets in & who doesn't, how it's decorated, & what kind of music will be played. That's how frivolous & style-focused he is. He's cultivating vibes.

Is he trying to get 10% ownership of Cracker Barrel now?
I've been worried about this too. It's time to move past contemplating "can he do that" because he is & he will & so far, no one has figured out how to stop him bc he doesn't GAF about the rules.
I worked for a small aerospace sub who occasionally would charge expedite & set-fees on already made (extra) parts they had sitting on a shelf. They used the extra money to give all three employees Xmas bonuses.
I have that too. I call it "compulsive smarthmouth disorder". Police refuse to recognize it as a legit disability. π
I've seen a couple cases on CourtTV where people did horrific things to their kids in the name of religion & used that as a defense. It didn't work. Hopefully that sentiment holds among potential jurors.
Hey, how about we demand they hang a plaque with the ten commandments on it in the White House?
This is what America looks like to me now.
they could make a case that he was acting as a foreign agent for Ukraine when NSA director as Bolton did take money back in 2017 for speaking fees from a Ukrainian billionaire. www.washingtonpost.com/politics/joh...
True, but there's a reason he chose Bolton to be the first political prosecution like this. I think his support of Ukraine has something to do with it as well. Wait & see I guess. I don't think anything Bolton did is the REAL reason he's a target, it's just that he insulted Trump, but
It's possible he did do something, I don't know what the evidence is yet, but I wouldn't put it past him. Just because it's Trump getting revenge doesn't mean Bolton isn't also guilty of something. What does he do for money these days, do we even know?
the way he slaps his name on everything reminds me of when I take my dog for a walk & he pees everywhere we go
It'll be interesting to see who Bolton is able to hire to defend him.
Kind of like stop & frisk, no probable cause needed. I'm sure Bolton would happily violate the civil rights of some Muslim cab driver accused of being a terrorist sympathizer, he deserves this. Fuck that guy. I'll save my tears for the poor & powerless.
"OUR focus"
Oh this is just fucking great
Except urban guerrilla fighters have a huge home field advantage when up against a bunch of bumpkins from other states who couldn't find their own asshole without a GPS. They'd have to use bombs which would destroy a lot of valuable real estate.
LOL
I'm praying someone will throw a ham sandwich at him, which would inevitably spark the biggest GoFundMe in history. π
I'll never understand why Democrats won't address this bloodbath by simply saying "we won't vote to give Israel aid until there's a ceasefire". Why is that so hard? Israel is a shitty ally who does next to nothing for the US & they keep using us for back up for their revenge campaign. Fuck that.
So by "treatment" he means jail?

This sounds believable to me: people.com/brooke-hogan...
Same vibe
Hopefully his daughter will still be able to afford to stick her dad in a really shitty nursing home when the time comes. π
Look at WVA, you'll see how both parties screwed over these people for ages. They lionize coal when it employs only 2% of the people there. Their last governor ran as a Dem then flipped after he got elected. The policies are the same no matter the party.
Families this man's are struggling because both Dems & Republicans keep pandering to billionaires, the investor class & ginormous corporations & letting the rest of us fall victim to vulture capitalism that's draining every extra dime we have. It doesn't have to be like this. π
Guys like him are my neighbors, it's why I love the people here. Democrats ponder their messaging & campaign on social issues they never actually do anything about (they could have made Roe law & didn't for 50 yrs) when elected. But they don't deliver anything meaningful.
I'm gonna go ahead and say that this dude has caught every single sandwich that has ever been thrown at him. Clearly there are no physical fitness standards for these agents anymore, only ideological ones.
I guess this training will come in handy if we go back to fighting wars with hand to hand combat. What's RFK trying to prove though?
They could also have created their own fake documents with Bill Clinton's name on everything, lol.

Of course they did, but they're raising prices anyway. On things people NEED. Who cares about some cheap plastic toy small children are brainwashed into wanting by the advertising industry?
They've probably already destroyed anything that makes Trump look complicit or actively involved.
I loved that movie!
Hey yβall no need to watch the news today I got u
They Might Be Average Sized
When youβre hammered everything looks like a nail
The Dems have to cut the Israel umbilical cord or they're done for. Why are we borrowing money from China to give to Israel anyway?
I am really sick of how Israel equates it's "right to exist" with other countries funding them to commit genocide. They've never been anywhere near not existing since 1947.
Just as a reminder, it looks like we really don't need our gov't stuffing the pockets of large corporations to build facilities in the US. If they want to expand or construct new plants, they will, on their own dime. Time to take the investor class off life-support.
All the participants in my focus group were pro-choice, pro-Medicaid, skeptical of tariffs, and agreed with the statement βthe deportations have gone too far.β Hereβs why all of them voted for Trump and would do so again.
I don't think accuracy is what he's going for.
Weren't Trump supporters just shitting their pants a few months ago over (imaginary) immigrants killing geese & ducks in Springfield OH?
I love this!
I think we're pretty close to these corporate fan boys just publicly blowing him.
And collecting information on everyone.
What is "American drone dominance"? π€
All we want is healthcare.
I would love this so much!! β€οΈ
I would have described them as "spineless pussies" but maybe that's just me
Exactly. Among the elites they see abuse, sexual or otherwise, as the price one pays to hang with their kind. Also to use an underage nobody as a cum bucket is some sort of gift to the victim. See Barbra Streisand on Michael Jackson:
I think the media is protecting the wealthy, high profile johns. Always has.
Didn't he just say there weren't any files like, a week ago? π«€
I keep expecting RFK Jr to propose we all put ground up rhino horn in our herbal tea instead of getting vaccines.
One man gets fired & the result is thousands of new jobs created next month! The Trumpconomy works like magic! π
Wellness & supplement money is notorious for sponsoring RW ideologues & their podcasts/Youtube channels. It's what some call the "crunchy to conservative pipeline". Another reason I have so much contempt for this industry.
I wish someone would do a big expose on all the "wellness trends" that turned out to be bogus. It would be a fun nostalgia thing like "remember when they said shark cartilage would cure cancer?"
One of the worst things a woman can do is cater to a wealthy, powerful man's penchant for perversity by rationalizing that "men like this have needs". As if the harm they do is worth sacrificing a few lambs because they create prosperity or they're a genius artist or whatever.
I know. In the 2020 primaries, most of the candidates were on board with MFA. Then by some amazing change of fortune we ended up with Biden, the one candidate who was against it. I just want to be rid of these blue dog assholes once & for all.
They should just increase the Medicaid expansion to include everyone. Keep for-profit companies out of it entirely.
I think this should be part of the Democratic Party platform. All presidential primary candidates should be asked about it & those running for lower offices should answer yes or no about whether they'd vote for it. It's one issue I think everyone can agree on.
let's be fair, who among us hasn't had our underage quote-unquote 'spa worker' stolen from us by our dead pedo bestie. happens all the time, am I right?
Republicans took all three branches with absolutely submissive lockstep Trumpism. Meanwhile, conservative Democrats say Americans are mad about Democratic ideological conformity. So their answer is to βdiversifyβ ideologically by becoming more like Republicans borg politics.
I keep seeing these bullshit posts & hoping they're fake, but they never are. He's just a bottomless pit of pouty petulance.

"Especially"? This is an elitist thing, not a left/right thing. Trump's lame attempt at making this a partisan issue is why he's in hot water in the first place. This scandal requires us all to punch UP instead of across the aisle.
π― Especially as they donβt ask about Cuomo literally defending Netanyahu in International Criminal Court, or Adams being accused of running a criminal enterprise by a former police commissioner - and clearly now owing Trump for dropping his case.
Could you please tell Katy Tur & her guests to quit referring to the Epstein matter as a "conspiracy theory"? The sex trafficking charges were real, as were the victims. Stop protecting the reputations of Epstein's clients just because they're wealthy elites.
It's about time we talked about the unjustly imprisoned besides Abrego Garcia. Making him the focus always made it seem as though the admin only made that ONE mistake, when it's far more likely dozens or possibly hundreds of the wrongly deported are sitting in detention centers right now.
I think the DNC establishment is still hung up on the Clinton model. A business Democrat that Republicans will find tolerable. Having no real principles is an asset in the soft center.
I think he stole this because he just didn't want the people who earned it to have it.
OK, but the Epstein affair isn't a conspiracy theory. Epstein was convicted of real crimes. People speculating on his involvement with the wealthy & well connected isn't crazy, it's a logical concern bc we live in a world where these things ARE covered up. Ask Ronan Farrow how that works.
Congress Passes Law Banning Women From Leaving House Without Makeup
Looking to buy or looking to have one donated by a wealthy benefactor who of course wouldn't want anything in return.
Plus we got the extra benefit of watching Republicans lose their shit over the tyranny of Obamabulbs
They been saying this since Obama. ZZZzzz.
Why aren't both Trump & Noem asked about this by the press?
Reminds me of a tsunami.
A lot of them probably already have a uniform hanging in their closets. You know, for Halloween parties *wink* wink*.
Wow. How is it legal to sell these?
Can I add "all those fucking sheets" to the list? I have been in at least 4 jails where I spend the night & inmates do not get extra bedding, ever. Super weird.
And no jail gives a prisoner THIS MANY FUCKING SHEETS This is not normal. It's not a conspiracy theory.
Why isn't #FEMA a stand alone agency? Natural disasters aren't rare anymore & the agency shouldn't be under the political whims of DHS or fighting for funding with ICE. I would prefer we eliminated DHS altogether TBH. It was never supposed to be this big or powerful.
Why does the so called liberal media keep calling the Epstein thing a "conspiracy theory"? It happened. Just because Bill Clinton was involved doesn't mean we should drop it to save his horny ass. The wealthy elites in both parties do shit we would go to jail for with impunity. Take 'em all down.
This country is being run by little asshole children.
I really wish someone would create a flow chart showing how PAC money ends up in the pockets of candidates & their families/businesses. When you say the money went to "the campaign" one assumes that means it was spent on legit campaign activity.
I don't think Vance is a true believer, racism is just a tool to keep us all fighting over resources without ever looking UP.
I just don't get why this is a DOT priority over fatigued drivers. I don't think there are stats because it's not a major factor in semi truck collisions. They're scapegoating people for this language now. I'll never understand the desperation to blame Mexicans for everything.
I'm not sure he's even a bona fide racist as much as dipping his toe in for own benefit. Good chance his wife knows it's PR & only cares that he becomes Trump's successor someday, even if cozying up to WN's is part of the playbook. I don't think he has any real core beliefs. It's all marketing.
Pseudo-intellectual horseshit about merit being biased towards white people. He's Stormfront whispering because Trump's base is beginning to unravel. Vance is a moderately adequate manipulator if you don't look too closely.
I voted for Dean whatshisface as a protest vote lol.
I just can't picture the life or death scenario involving vehicular mayhem that wouldn't have happened if only the driver had better language skills.
How many crashes have been caused by a lack of sufficiency of drivers in speaking English?
OK, but just so you know "TEh LeFT" isn't really a thing. Kamala on Israel straddled the fence & wound up impaling herself. She "both-sided" herself.
