Trump: I am pleased to announce that Rudy Giuliani, the greatest Mayor in the history of NYC, and an equally great American Patriot, will receive THE PRESIDENTIAL MEDAL OF FREEDOM, our Country’s highest civilian honor...” Rapists honor each other….

Ok I’ve seen enough. Often the historical answer to fascism is progressive movement. So of course this admin is scared that Bernie and AOC’s messaging has legs. Ignore all the BS about β€œcommunism,” being screamed to scare you. I’m a centrist on the left, but I can see their messaging plans easily.

If indeed he is resigning (because all his cons worked and he became a billionaire in the last six months), that means Thiel’s puppet, JD, is ready to do more of the same horrible deeds, only faster. My guess is he is charging someone with β€œtrumped-up” charges. www.cnbctv18.com/world/us-pre...

A friend called last night to tell me the extended family plan on Amazon Prime is no more. She and her daughter (married) shared an account (extended family plan), but the only way she can continue is if they share a payment method, or she gets her own Prime. Bezos is helping her quit Amazon. πŸ˜‚

So … he gets up, has a closed luncheon of Big Macs with the VP, then publicly signs a statement around 2 pm, makes a little small talk, perhaps one phone call, then his work day is done. Let’s give a round of applause to trump making it through another really challenging work day. πŸ™„

If it means anything, he’s either having an operation (perhaps to relieve those veins somehow), or he is meeting with someone he shouldn’t at MAL this weekend.

What we all seem to be missing is that’s the last political message his supporters might care about. The killing/maiming of whales isn’t even on their list. He is just wasting words.

What’s funny is, with a second court striking down tariffs, all donnie’s β€œcolleagues” who bought stocks on insider info about tariffs are screwed. Let’s see if scotus bails them out. Roberts already ruined the court; what does he have to lose?

20k is too much. I’d let them only take from individuals and only up to half that or less. Many waste that money anyway, or use some of it for their own expenses.

I’d skip the Senator polls and look at others. I do believe they often lean a more left than right, but I don’t trust them. In March 2023, Semafor, a relatively new global news organization, announced a partnership with a Chinese organization.
