* Trump Family Amasses $6 Billion Fortune After Crypto Launch @wsj.com
That’s an audible fuckin “LOL” from me dawg
Many thanks to independent journalist Amanda Moore (@noturtlesoup17.bsky.social) for all the footage she captured.
NEW: A week or so ago, one federal agent kept popping up in videos from Trump's violent DC crackdown—so @jsweetli.bsky.social and I investigated. Turns out he's a 26-year-old US Parks Police officer, a lesser known law enforcement unit currently championed by Interior Sec. Doug Burnum. Our report:
Some of this is wild when you consider one of Witkoff’s biggest current real estate business partners is Russian oligarch Len Blavatnik, reported as close friend Netanyahu and sanctioned Russian oligarchs qz.com/1521847/majo...
When you can’t let that 15 minutes go
Dm me!
I would argue there's a bit of what I said as well mixed in. You see much more early, on the ground reporting on crime stories and things outside Manhattan and DC from right wing outlets, bc of those structural things I mention.
Absolutely
yes, there is also the evergreen problem that people insist what they haven't read doesn't exist lol
Local news is really decimated
He seemed to have almost none, unless we just can't find it. Not everything is findable, but the FBI didn't seem to find much either and prepTrump FBI probably wasn't part of some unlikely conspiracy either.
like Daily Mail and New York Post. I am decent at that reporting but it takes resources like outlets paying reporters to go to those places, and nothing is oriented that way or funded in non right wing media. That's it, it's simple and structural (and bad.)
more about Crooks, reporters would need to really dig locally in his town, talk to family, neighbors and coworkers, and very little of our current media has any ability to talk to people outside DC feed-me laundered info circles. The few outlets that can do that reporting well tend to be right wing/
Both Blue Anon and MAGA keep asking why we know so little about Thomas Crooks compared to other mass shooters and attempted assassins. As someone who reported some of what we found out about him early on, it's simply because he had almost no on line footprint compared to the others. To find out/
This video is clearly horrific but this caption seems misleading. Sounds like the mom and ICE guys are asking the boy to stand up and come WITH her, maybe to be detained as well?? And he’s saying “I don’t want to.”
This video is clearly terrible but it sounds like they are asking the boy to get up and come WITH her. Also terrible but a bit different than you captioned.
Terrible video. But the way it’s captioned doesn’t match what they are saying - seems like the mother is trying to convince the boy to get up and come WITH them. Also terrible. But be careful w these random accounts posting what’s going on, they are often wrong.
Would you message me?
I picked the wrong year to quit drinking, my kidneys are gonna be irresistible
More about O’Neill and seasteading bsky.app/profile/jswe...
People are so funny sometimes . I was away from my phone for an hour and I have tears from how funny all the quotes and comments are.
New acting director of CDC Jim O'Neill expressed being pro paid organ donation. "There are plenty of healthy spare kidneys walking around, unused."
they don't believe in the value of society, perfect for the leader of the CDC
Here is the acting CDC director discussing health care in a seastead free market:
I think they just want to extend their own particular lives lol
There's video vimeo.com/8086466
“The last best hope for freedom is on the sea.” ⚓
The healthiest societies in 2030 will most likely be on the sea,” O’Neill told an audience at a Seasteading Institute conference in 2009...he talked up the benefits of a free market for health care, saying that seasteads could offer improved health care and serve as medical tourism hubs/
www.technologyreview.com/2025/06/30/1...
O'Neill is a "longevity guy" and is buddies with Bryan Johnson and... "He has also supported the libertarian idea of creating new geographic zones, possibly at sea, in which residents can live by their own rules (including, notably, permissive regulatory regimes for new drugs and therapies). "
Five years ago, YouTube suspended MAGA propaganda outlet OAN, saying it was not an “authoritative” source of information. But today it celebrated a carriage deal beaming the network into millions of homes on YouTube TV. The timing is no coincidence, via @status.news www.status.news/p/youtube-oa...
"Minneapolis Police Chief Brian O’Hara said the shooter acted alone, did not have an extensive criminal history and legally purchased the guns used in the killings." What matters is the last part of the sentence "legally purchased the guns used in the killings."
The FBI was also monitoring some of these spaces. Unclear if they still are
Not a crazy idea that he was monitored if he was on 764/ the Com type Discord channels
Was the trans chatter you saw before anyone posted the name and trans on X though?
Yeah intriguing. I have noticed Rugg in particular often gets stuff first or early and I don’t know why.
Not sure when you first saw comments about the shooter being trans, but right wing influencers on X were posting the shooter's name, photo and that they were trans before it was reported in news outlets (New York Post being the first I saw to run the name.) Collin Rugg posted at 12:56 pm.

That’s also Matt Gaetz brother in law
Sounds like a day on the internet lol
You mean the Com stuff ?
@leahmcelrath.bsky.social quoted it which is how I saw it and I believe she deleted after
I haven’t seen any proof Russian media has details about the shooter early on yet. And I asked for his sourcing and he said “eventually”…as one does ??
I think he was a fan of Russian culture and rappers or whatever he imagined the culture to be which you see sometimes with 4chan types etc
Someone I follow quoted it but I think they’ve since deleted it
Doesn’t seem like he did that well if it all but I’m not an expert
I think it’s a sort of online subculture thing
The MN shooter Robin Westman also had a VK (Russisn social media) account under the name "Bob Vyostmin." Last posted in 2021. The follow list seems to be mostly Russian rappers.
Can you point to where you saw this?
Trump administration moves to bar states and even private (!) nonprofits, such as Red Cross, from helping undocumented immigrants after disasters. Evil. s2.washingtonpost.com/4467742/68af...

On bail even though he has documented ties to Russian intelligence and an Israeli passport. Trump’s DOJ also pledged to reexamine his case, after he pleaded guilty last year.
One of the donors mentioned in this piece, David Chesnoff, is notably also the lawyer for Alexander Smirnov— the Israeli-American FBI informant indicted for lying about Bidens to FBI. I’ve written about Smirnov’s ties to Trump associates twice. The DOJ recently attempted to let Smirnov out/
I’ll do a Substack one day. Have much more than the same stuff everyone recycles
Yes it’s in the first screenshot
idk this one lol
Always edit your tabs before uploading (This is old but I just found it and it’s hilarious)
I remember having one soda for an entire school day, and having like a mild headache all the time lol
Lol
For people who love to misunderstand things, no one said this was some big expose. If I thought this was important instead of just a funny, interesting factoid about grifters who steal work, I wouldn’t just be doing a random Bluesky post about it
The Meidas Touch Meiselas brothers grew up with Diddy as a close family friend via their dad, his close friend and longtime attorney. They even went to a bunch of Those Parties and Ben interned with his dad for Diddy.
They downloaded my videos from Trump’s trial and shared as their own across all their monetized platforms. Videos I made no money for and took on my own time and at my own expense. And that was like the fourth time they stole from me too.
What’s insane is that they could have just reshared my tweets and videos, thereby crediting me while amplifying the crucial content
Ben is the new Jack Smith Robert Mueller
I really didn’t want this to go viral. I was maybe going to do a thread one day about how the brothers were raised as very very close family friends with Diddy and went to his white parties as kids though lol
Ben will save us! Lol
Also when a reporter wrote about MT for Rolling Stone, the brothers sent a mob after him to harass him
lol what is their justification
A lot of the DOGE/ Trump II appointees just deleted their LinkedIn as a default now
Ok I just started and I’m still at the gym 😆😆
Remember when they briefly wanted to appoint a DOGE/Musk guy to the Fannie Mae board?

Abrego has not been charged with any sexual misconduct, and another federal judge found the evidence prosecutors presented on the subject unreliable. More: www.allrisenews.com/p/abrego-gar...
“You know that Mr. Abrego's birthday is in July, right?” Hecker asked. Agent Joseph, the lead investigator on the case, admitted that he did not know when Abrego’s birthday was.
This is what Kristi Noem calling him a child predator this week is based on
If you are constantly following public opinion that is itself shaped by the Trump admin’s own propaganda it’s a feedback loop that inevitably shifts toward that propaganda. That’s why leadership is called leading not… following.
They repeatedly stole my work and videos and when I asked him privately to please stop he was nasty and implicitly threatened me
Meidas Touch stole my footage of Trump’s trial last year in NYC and used it across all their platforms and when I asked them to please stop he was extremely nasty and threatened me.
The associate is Dr. Aseem Malhotra, who has authored books about fad diets and one published in 2020 promoting a 21-day diet for "metabolic optimization" to reduce risk of COVID. www.amazon.co.uk/gp/aw/d/1529...
UPDATE: Kilmar’s lawyer announces he has been taken into ICE custody.
I feel like no one is noticing how crazy it is that the AG is doing this (too much craziness overall I guess)
