« La folie, c’est de faire toujours la même chose et de s’attendre à un résultat différent ». Albert Einstein.

He was to end the war between Russia and Ukraine on the first day of his presidency. We’re still waiting. The war with Iran was to last 2-3 weeks at the most. We’re still waiting. Again.

Trump touts America's "golden age", attacks communism in delayed July 4th speech The « golden age » is when your monthly gas bill is greather than an once of gold.

Here is one way I use to detect scammers: they display a phone number very close to yours. Typically, the same starting numbers but just the last two are different from yours. They believe you’ll pickup if you think the phone number is from a close area. Don’t answer.

The memo of understanding between Iran and the US is a page and a half according to JD Vance. My rental agreement for my studio is longer than that.

The US defense budget will be between 900 billions to 1 trillion dollars in fy26. Imagine if this money was spent on its people.

RUBIO: “Imagine if Iran spent billions on its people instead of weapons... They’d have a much different country.”🤔😕 Unreal. @marcorubio Do you even hear yourselves? Your shameless hypocrisy is killing us

Iranian state media is more believable & more trustworthy than the President of the United States. Think about that. Just think about how fucked up, horrible, bad, & dangerous that is. But the people of the United States elected someone who lies as he breathes. So here we are.

Omg people need to stop defending Tiger Woods. This isn’t about golf or legacy. It’s about someone choosing AGAIN to get behind the wheel impaired and gamble with other people’s lives! Fame doesn’t excuse recklessness, it exposes it! GET SOME HELP, TIGER.

The training given to ICE agents was cut back from 6 months to 6 weeks to respond to demands from the White House. Officers working at entry points to the US were moved to cities and crowd control operations. It’s not surprising their actions look untrained… that’s because they are.

It’s not just that they are murdering people who are peacefully protesting, it’s that they then stand in front of the cameras and slander the victims by telling us that what we see on the videos didn’t happen.

Donald Trump walks back comments about UK soldiers in Afghanistan The man says one thing one day, and the contrary the next day. Something is not going well in his head.

Trump is capable of sending his military to destroy a small boat and clame a huge victory. But when it comes to show resolve and action against a country invading a friendly nation, he’s very shy and cannot articulate or execute a response. Reminds me of a bully in school who only challenged kids

When the US government provides economic statistics our first reaction is now to doubt. So many lies come from this administration.

Used to be you met your boss face to face when fired. Then, came the “fired by cell phone”. Now, it’s fired with a post on social media. What if you’re not on X ?

"Susan Monarez is no longer director of the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention," the Department of Health and Human Services wrote in a social media post. Her lawyers said she had neither resigned nor been told she was fired. n.pr/45Bjovm

Denmark's main national broadcaster reported that at least three people with connections to President Donald Trump have been carrying out covert influence operations in Greenland. https://cnn.it/47KZFL6

There must be accountability for those responsible for attacks on journalists; the world must not look away. Press organizations, governments, and the public must demand justice, respect for press protections, and the end of impunity for those who murder journalists.

When I hear a “deal” with the administration was made, I always wonder what is not told.

Greystar was using rent-setting algorithms from software company RealPage, the subject of a 2022 ProPublica investigation that showed the firm was helping landlords decide prices in a way that legal experts said could result in cartel-like behavior. By @heathervogell.bsky.social

North Dakota : your government at work.

NEW: Frustrated by oil companies mysteriously withholding large amounts of royalties, North Dakota mineral owners lobbied for change. Instead, lawmakers provided an oversight program that, owners say, fails to address the issue it was created to solve. With @northdakotamonitor.com

Responding to President Trump’s plan to put District police under federal control, D.C. Attorney General Brian Schwalb called the move “unprecedented, unnecessary, and unlawful.” “There is no crime emergency in the District of Columbia,” Schwalb said.

I don’t understand how come Trump is so eager to protect a few federal buildings in California and why he didn’t raise a finger to protect the Capitol.
