There's huge culture shift where lying, cheating, stealing, scamming, bullying and threatening is no longer a stain on your resume. It now seems being seen as a cowboy badge of honor and admired by many people. "Soon the admirers will find out they are not with the cowboys but with the cattle."

Trump and his administration are like a badly acting private equity firm. Loading the company (US) with debt and destructive organizational changes while looting the company for personal benefit. In the end all that's left is a broken empty shell company (country) with tons of problems and debt.

So America is practically closed for honest hard working people but criminals and terrorists can easily buy their way in with possible extra perks as well? Trump bombs fisherman alleged of drug trafficking but the drug barons can buy a gold card and get pardoned if they get in legal trouble.

Step right up and buy your way into America with your new Trump Gold Card, brought to you by the con men selling out America to the highest bidder and wrecking the economy.

Dumpy Trumpy said himself: Presidents have immunity for everything they do and had SCOTUS rule on that. So how is he talking about treason, criminality and arrest in relation to President Obama?

Aaron Rupar@atrupar.com

REPORTER: Gabbard has submitted a criminal referral. Who should the DOJ target? TRUMP: It would be President Obama. And Biden was there with him ... the leader of the gang was Obama. Barack Hussein Obama. He's guilty. This is treason.

Con-man Trump's dinner leaderboard is the gamification of the US government. He's selling out the USA for personal gain while his supporters getting hit over and over again. But the indoctrination is so deep, most of them will keep on cheering him. A bit like $BBBYQ shareholders (& $TSLA soon).

In a time where Trump massively reduced the value of US citizenship, he launches a gold ticket for the ultra wealthy to buy a spot in his new oligarchy/ kleptocracy. It probably will come with judicial protection and a permit to defraud lower and middle class Americans.

Meanwhile in the Netherlands: police visit a woman at home who has demonstrated a few times against the massacres in Gaza. They want to know why, and will she do it again? And is it true she’ll be moving shortly? Creepy stuff - to say the least.

They're called public records for a reason. Starting today, WIRED will *stop paywalling* articles that are primarily based on public records obtained through the Freedom of Information Act, becoming the first publication to partner with @freedom.press to offer this for our new coverage.

These CINO's (Christians In Name Only) are destroying democracy to replace it with a repressive rule that looks nothing like the original Christianity. Everyone following them is, like many believers before, being tricked. YOUR FAILURE AT CRITICAL THINKING WILL KEEP YOU GETTING SCAMMED OVER & OVER.

Goeie documentaire Zembla! Dit gaat veel verder dan abortus en homoseksualiteit. Er wordt op alle mogelijke manieren aan de poten van onze Democratie gezaagd onder het mom van christelijke waarden. Laten we in Europa niet zo naief zijn als de Amerikanen en dit serieus aanpakken!

The more tariffs Trump imposes, the more power he has over American businesses and everything they stand for. Trump can offer any firm an exemption or leave it saddled with tariffs. That creates an obvious perverse incentive for businesses to do Trump’s bidding. finance.yahoo.com/news/comment...

finance.yahoo.comCommentary: Trump’s tariffs open the door to crony capitalismTrump has now begun the process of offering exemptions to his tariffs, allowing him to dole out favors to those businesses deemed worthy.

Trump logic: Taiwan Semiconductor has a 97% marketshare (no competition) builds a plant in the US because of the tariffs. Which they don't have to pay since the US taxpayer does. And whilie they have no competition who could seriously take away marketshare. But somehow they are swayed by the tariffs

Bad actors are misusing faith and church for personal & political gain. The root of the problem is that faith ideolizes a form of gullibility since it asks you to put critical thinking aside and just believe even if you see facts that oppose this believe. This gullibility is very easy to prey on.

Erin Fogg says Free Link@criminalerin.bsky.social

Everything fascists do only makes any logical sense if what they were doing was the exact opposite of what they are doing, for example, it would make sense to send the FBI after the UFC, bc of all the likely crimes, but it makes no sense to have the UFC train the FBI abcnews.go.com/US/fbi-direc...
