Putin asset Trump asks you to look away --
If the test of a theory is its predictive power, then Trump-Russia is the most robust theory in all contemporary political science.

Shutting down cyber offensive against Russia --
Something odd here. CBS News confirms other media reports: "Hegseth has issued a directive to U.S. Cyber Command to pause planning against Russia, including offensive digital actions." The CBS News then notes that National Security Advisor Michael Waltz said he's unaware of the directive.

Holding Trump to account --
Baldwin: "Trump a little over a week ago said on Fox News, 'I'm not touching Social Security, Medicare, Medicaid.' And he said it multiple times. The next morning he endorsed the Republican House budget which calls for nearly a trillion dollars in cuts to Medicaid."

Chris Murphy: "Everyone who signs up to work for Donald Trump is signing up for one single project, and that is the transition of American democracy to a kind of kleptocratic oligarchy in which the billionaires rule and get to steal from regular Americans."

🤬🤬 Follow the money...as soon as Trump and Donny, Jr. and Eric started the World Liberty Financial crypto business, they moved up from grifting and NFTs and shadowy campaign donations and even more shadowy inauguration funds to giant corruption! This story is just the latest super wealthy guy giving money directly to Trump for political favors.*
ReplyDeleteYou may remember Justin Sun is the Chinese guy who spent over $6M on an "art" piece that is just a banana attached to a white wall with duct tape. He has just invested $78M in Trump's crypto business in exchange for the SEC dropping a criminal investigation.

Crypto has never been anything but a scam and once Sphincter Face & Sons figured that out they went all in for personal enrichment and massive political corruption! 🤬🤬
🤔🤗 Excellent analogy from an actual Ukrainian, not a VPOTUS who has seen an article about war! This morning on MSNBC, former Zelenskyy advisor Igor Novikov said the scene in the Oval Office on Friday reminded him of the laser scene in “Goldfinger.” Zelenskyy (Bond) is asking “do you expect me to talk?” And, every villain in the room responds “no Mr. Zelenskyy, we expect you to die!” No one in that room, besides Zelenskyy, had their minds on bringing peace to Ukraine. They wanted approval from Moscow (they got that) and a chance to personally enrich themselves by sticking their piggy snouts into mining Ukraine’s rare earth minerals! A few days ago, Novikov reminded us that in 2017…Trump’s first disastrous term…he was trying to extort those same minerals from Ashraf Ghani in Afghanistan.*
ReplyDeleteBut, like the tremendously unsuccessful “artist of the deal” he is, Trump never considered the cost of mining in those mountainous terrains and he never convinced any mining companies to front that money! Now, Trump thinks he has better terrain and a better war to exploit! But, he still has made no effort to bring together mining company oligarchs in the US or Russia. He has a pipedream to beat China in these minerals and with his deal-making skills this will never happen. Neither will peace or benefits to Ukraine! But, Trump is lining up the usual suspects to blame instead of himself!! 🤬🤬
