1. Trump is pushing forward with his plans to create a "Crypto Strategic Reserve." No one has bothered to explain why diverting government resources into crypto has ANY STRATEGIC BENEFIT FOR THE UNITED STATES. The only benefit is for people who are current investors in crypto. It's a grift.

Strategic corruption reserve

President Trump is hawking a memecoin and collecting most of the revenue from the sale of a separate coin from a company called World Liberty Financial.

Interesting call today from a former Reform candidate with little or no love for Farage. This episode has really crystallised his position & I doubt he’s alone. Significant cos Farage hasn’t simply endorsed Trump, he’s manacled himself to him politically & in many ways personally.

Most of UK’s big build-to-rent developers owned by foreign private equity firms. They don't build for families or the poor. Profiteering, debt, tax dodges are the game. They expect govt contracts and land to boost business. Councils can build cheaper, eliminate profiteering.

The whole "Constitutional crisis" is particularly rich to those of us who stood in the breach, demanding that Congress not trash our Constitution on Jan 6. Trump's presidency is invalid & unconstitutional per 14A. These are the obvious consequences of illegally handing power to an insurrectionist.

The DEI caused the plane crash narrative is a distraction. The tariffs are a distraction. Whatever insane nonsense Trump spews that the media will chase like cats chasing a laser light is a distraction. The only story that counts right now is the wholesale hijacking of control of the US government.

Anti-abortion advocates are running ads to find & encourage men to betray and sue their partners. This makes me sick. wapo.st/40nfmD2

Antiabortion advocates look for men to report their partners' abortions

Boyfriends and husbands can have uniquely personal and specific information necessary to help surface new lawsuits in states with abortion bans.

This partner-focused approach will shift to a more public phase next month when Texas's largest antiabortion organization launches an advertising campaign on Facebook and X to reach the husbands, boyfriends and sex partners of women who have had abortions in the state - with the goal of recruiting them to file lawsuits against those who assisted the women in ending their pregnancies.

As the far-right justice faces yet another controversy, he doesn’t exactly have a deep reservoir of credibility he can turn to in response.
