Your regular reminder: If the Russians stop fighting, the war ends. If the Ukrainians stop fighting, their land will be occupied, their leaders will be killed, their history and language will be erased, their children will be kidnapped to serve Russia.

Huge corporations like Amazon, Walmart, and Uber are among the top employers of SNAP and Medicaid recipients. Meanwhile, their CEOs are raking in multi-million dollar pay packages. How is this not a bigger scandal?

The Trump administration inked a $1.6 billion deal for a U.S. company to mine tungsten in Kazakhstan. The company is linked to Trump’s sons & Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick’s sons, who will be personally enriched by their fathers’ policy decisions. The corruption is breathtaking.

Working class people voting for a party funded by foreign Billionaires, that wants to end workers rights, privatise the NHS and end the equalities act. Shit you couldnt make up

Fox News beta cuck Sean Hannity: “As of today, I no longer consider myself a Catholic.” Not only selling out your dignity and integrity but also your eternal afterlife for a man who would push you in front of a bus if you got in his way. Good work. 1/2

"The federal government buying back its own permits because the current occupant of the White House lost a lawsuit in Scotland twenty years ago and never got over it." Recommend this deep dive by @lizdye.bsky.social into Trump's crazy obsession with wind energy.

Aaron Rupar@atrupar.com

New in PN: Trump wants to bribe energy companies to kill wind energy "Trump’s irrational loathing for wind turbines is so all-encompassing that he hopes to buy TotalEnergy off with taxpayer dollars & ensure that, even if a Democrat succeeds him, wind energy projects will have to start from scratch"

Trump on Venezuela: "The president has done a very good job. I get along with him really well." (The president of Venezuela is a woman.)

Replying to @atrupar.com

Are they going to issue a retraction??? Using this footage is not only UNETHICAL, it is SO FUCKING DISPECTFUL to both sets of soldiers.

ttc05.bsky.social reposted

The thing that's most damning about this from a media ethics standpoint (yes, I know) is that most of the audience and Trump supporters probably wouldn't have noticed the ball cap. But the people at Fox News knew it was a bad look and they made an active potter box decision to run the old footage.

Aaron Rupar@atrupar.com

Wow -- as first spotted by @BadFoxGraphics on X, Fox & Friends this morning used *old footage of a previous dignified transfer* to mislead their audience about the fact that Trump wore a baseball cap during the one yesterday

ttc05.bsky.social reposted

I’m sorry, doing this in a baseball cap sold by your campaign store is deliberately disrespecting the dead.

The families of the six US Army Reserve soldiers who were killed this week in Kuwait watched as their loved ones were brought home during a dignified transfer at Dover Air Force Base in Delaware on Saturday. https://cnn.it/40mKmU2

Trump: "We won on tariffs, actually. Somebody said, 'You actually won the case.' We won on tariffs. You had a decision that was wrong."

The President of the United States raped underage women. Attorney General Pam Bondi has seen the proof in the Epstein files and doesn't care. Thank you for your attention to this matter.

Why did the American audience apparently hear different audio of JD Vance's appearance at the Olympics than the audio heard by the rest of the world? NBC denies muting. But it's part of overall disturbing developments in the US corporate media world.

theguardian.comThe world heard JD Vance being booed at the Olympics. Except for viewers in the US | Bryan Armen GrahamThe real risk for American broadcasters is not that dissent will be visible. It is that audiences will start assuming anything they do not show is being hidden

Big Oil spent millions and millions to get Trump elected. They’re getting a great return on their investment.

Aaron Rupar@atrupar.com

Trump: "We're going to have our very large United States oil companies go in, spend billions of dollars, fix the badly broken infrastructure and start making money for the country. And we are ready to stage a second and much larger attack if we need to do so."

Putin is Trump. Trump is Putin.

Aaron Rupar@atrupar.com

"Indeed, Trump's National Security 'Strategy' is entirely consistent with the goals of both Putin’s Russia and China’s authoritarian regime, both of which have long viewed the weakening of the Western alliance as a key part of their effort to displace the US as the leading power in the world."

Had Bari Weiss just ran the story, it would have been seen by a couple million people tops. The bootleg has now gone viral, and may end up being the most-watched 60 Minutes segment ever. It might be time to rename the Streisand Effect.

Trump goes on another racist rant about Somalis: "Ilhan Omar should be thrown the hell out of our country, and most of those people -- they have destroyed Minnesota. It's a hellhole right now. Those Somalians should be out of here. They have destroyed out country ... go back to your own country."

Ilhan Omar rose from a single parent immigrant family where her dad drove a taxi to her current position. Trump is the kid of a racist wealthy slum landlord who headed multiple failed businesses. One of these people is the example of failed ambition and it's not her. What a racist piece of shit.

Trump on Somalis: "We're gonna go the wrong way if we keep taking in garbage into our country. Ilhan Omar is garbage. She's garbage. Her friends are garbage."

Donald Trump doesn't want to release the Epstein files because he's in the files. Trump is in the files because he was "best friends" with Epstein for years. He was "best friends" with Epstein for years because they were abusing women and girls together. His attacks won't change any of that.

Remember the scene in Goodfellas when Paulie gets a piece of the restaurant? "Business bad? Fuck you, pay me! Oh, you had a fire? Fuck you, pay me! Place got hit by lightning? Fuck you, pay me!"

Trump to the Novo Nordisk CEO: "Maybe you should give us a piece of the company like I've been asking for."

You are up to date.
