June 2017 Trump: Qatar is funding terrorists!!! May 2025 Qatar: Here's a $400,000,000 bribe, I mean plane! Oct. 2025 Trump: Qatar needs an airbase in Idaho!!! The quid is pro quo-ing all over the place.

It would be funny if getting in bed with Russian oligarchs backfires on him someday. Like when trump's no longer POTUS. Russian oligarchs really do not play, and Don Jr is a coked-up moron, after all. Coked-up morons often screw up Once his daddy isn't ultra powerful anymore, Jr is just some dude.

Beatrice Keul was just half Trump's when he attacked her in the Plaza Hotel in 1993. Keul says the encounter was violent, stating that Trump grabbed her from behind, tore her dress, and left her bruised and bleeding.

Whoa, Saudi Defense Minister Prince Khalid bin Salman allegedly offered to pay the Houthis $1,000,000,000 in cash to stop the attacks.

Shipwreck@shipwreck75.bsky.social

Diplomatic sources in the Gulf say Saudi Defense Minister Prince Khalid bin Salman traveled to Tehran to negotiate a ceasefire with the Houthis that would see Riyadh transfer $1 billion to the group through Iran. One source claims the minister even brought the money aboard a military aircraft.

The right wing Cato Institute finds that immigrants contribute $1,700,000,000,000 to the US economy. That's the GDP of Australia! So Trump persecuting them, making them afraid to show up to work, making them afraid for their lives and their families' safety is costing the US economy a fortune.

Ambassador Ken Fairfax (ret)@portlandken.bsky.social

The conservative Cato Institute looked at the Trump Admin's claims that illegal immigrants are costing taxpayer money by using services. They concluded that immigrants have CONTRIBUTED (not cost) $1.7 trillion. www.cato.org/blog/white-h...

Jessica Tarlov breaks down the dynamics of what Jesse Watters describes as "The gayest midterm of all time."

Jessica Tarlov@jessicatarlov.bsky.social

Obama lives rent free in Trump’s head. Always has. Always will. Besides this being the ‘gayest midterms’ ever (according to Jesse), Trump saying ‘I don’t give a damn. We’re making a fortune’ when stock trading more in 1 day than Pelosi did in 12 years, is what voters are hearing from the President.

Supercut of Trump's failed promises. Trump never keeps his public promises, because those promises are made to regular people. And he couldn't care less about regular people. The promises he keeps are all made to billionaires, CEOs and foreign dictators like Putin.

Trump says, "Promises made promises kept." Let's see how his promises have held up:

"...including a new rape allegation." How many is that now?? The depth of Trump's depravity is unknown and unknowable. However bad you think he is, he's much, much worse. And however bad and untrustworthy you think the DOJ has become, it's also much, much worse.

Truthout@truthout.org

The House Judiciary Committee Democrats have released a report containing testimony from 11 women regarding allegations of sexual assault, including a new rape allegation, against President Trump in relation to Jeffrey Epstein that the lawmakers say has been deliberately covered up by the DOJ.

Trump's gonna want these on the roof of the White House and on top of that idiotic arch.

NEW: "Donald Trump was an active participant in Jeffrey Epstein’s sexual abuse of young women during the mid-to-late 1990s," per new House Judiciary Dem report. Report has new allegation that Trump raped a 24-year-old and then promised the victim a visa & NYU admission, demanding she stay quiet.

Trump apparently wrote a Truth Social post that looks like the old North Tower of the World Trade Center. And it's all an attack on "comedian" Bill Maher. They had a 4 hour dinner the other day. Maher told his own audience "F**k you!" over it. Now Trump posted a 10,000 word break up letter.

Yashar Ali 🐘@yasharali.bsky.social

The latest Truth Social post from the president of the United States.

Now who didn't see this coming? I doubt he can annul an election, so what's his endgame? Military coup? Trump's gonna pull this scam here, too. Maybe Johnson will just refuse to seat the new Congress. Maybe Trump will try to disband Congress. Fascists just don't take "No!" for an answer.

Maher says he likes having dinner with Trump Guess he wore out his welcome! “Let’s talk about this COMPLETE AND TOTAL LOSER, Bill Maher. He’s got a Low Rated Show on equally Low Rated HBO, which was once, long ago, a Network of Quality and Excitement — But that’s all gone. It’s not ‘HOT’ anymore!”

Was this ghost-posted by Natalie Harp? I don't even think Trump knows this many words. And he def doesn't still have the focus necessary to write this never ending diatribe. On the other hand, if this IS Harp, she's almost as crazy as Trump is.

A family called the cops on 3 y/o budding soccer phenom Nevada at a youth league in Florida. Because of course it was Florida. They complained Nevada was too good and showing off. The police showed up! And escorted the disruptive family off the field, where they were promptly refunded and banned.

They called the cops on this 3-year-old Black boy because he was kickin the white kids' ass on the soccer field.

When aircraft experience high crosswinds during landing, they have to turn the plane into the wind a little. This causes the plane to land at an angle to the runway. They call this "crabbing" and sometimes it can get a little sketchy. Must have been exciting inside the cabin.

Spending all that money on defense didn’t protect us from the Russian asset who hijacked the Republican Party and now occupies our White House. Public education is a matter of national security.

The world is betting the farm - and the future of mankind - on a tech that might not actually exist. No one knows if "Super Intelligence" is possible. But we know for a fact that regular vanilla AI is capable of extraordinary acts of mischief and can def be leveraged by criminals, terrorists, etc.

Cops are only allowed to shoot at fleeing cars if their life is endangered. This wasn't some heavy duty armed robbery like the movie Heat. This was a SHOPLIFTING CALL. The officer fired into the passenger side of a car that was passing by, not bearing down on him. Mississippi calls it "justified."

Scary interesting news. So... AI agents can find ways to communicate even if they're isolated from one another. Sand-boxing and even air-gapping is not enough to keep agents from coordinating. And the method the agents used is not only hard to detect, but it's not the only path they can use.

Every nation on earth - certainly those nations without fascist ambitions - should quit starlink. It's a strategic and security liability to trust a Ketamine addled Nazi moron to control your internet. Even fascist countries should think twice before trusting Musk. He ain't right in the head.
