When you RT Trump's bullshit posts w/no filter, you help to make them go viral, you WILLINGLY confirm that he is the arbiter of truth, and you also drown out news reports on his abuse. He plays you all every single time.

Not a single network aired this on their nightly news broadcasts yesterday. They described Trump overseeing a "somber ceremony" and called it a "moving moment." The only way to know what trump actually said about the soldiers he killed is to follow aaron rupar which no offense to aaron is insane

Lunacy. Here's Emmer 10 years ago.
A decade ago, Emmer created a Congressional Somalia Caucus with then-U.S. Rep. Keith Ellison. When people in St. Cloud called for a moratorium on Somali immigrants, he pushed back, calling the proposed ban “un-American.”

“If you’re asking me how I feel about immigrant populations who are in this country legally, and who are actually trying to find a better way for themselves and their families, I support it wholeheartedly,” he said at a town hall in 2015. 

 Minnesota has the largest population of Somali-Americans in the U.S.

Enjoy this article from a Minnesota newspaper in 1882 noting that Scandinavians love their home countries so much that it will take them generations to assimilate into America. www.loc.gov/resource/sn8...
SCANDINAVIANS 
No people on earth, probably excel the Scandinavians, and scarcely any equal them, unless it may be the Swiss mountaineers, in attachment to their native country. The Scandinavian emigrant
brings with him to this country, not only his love of home, but his attachments to customs and habits of his old home. So
strong is this passion that it is hard for him to assimilate to the customs of his new home, and to conform to the ideas of American citizenship, but he remains in his adopted land, a foreigner, in all that pertains to his modes, manners, habits,
likes and dislikes.This peculiar habit of our Scandinavian fellow citizens, and this strong, over-mastering attachment to their native land, has not been generally known and appreciated by our own citizens, "to the manor born."
It will take several generations to wear away this foster land attachment, and to assimilate the Scandinavian emigrant, and
absorb him into the language, habits, customs and true idea of a homogeneous American citizenship.

Is this a stupid thing to focus on? Sure. But Trump is intently focused on it already. And both his obsession with redoing the reflecting pool and his incompetence in carrying it out are easily understood by most Americans, so yeah, fight him here.

We weren't allowed to know the deal, but Trump said it was the greatest deal of all time. Then it came out and it was so bad that even the Trump people had to say it was actually not the deal and there's a second secret deal that's great, but which, surprise of surprises, we aren't allowed to know

This is bombshell stuff.
Together, alongside the mundane fare of a typical thought leadership conference, the documents show an extraordinary convergence of power. The registration records list General Alexus Grynkewich, NATO's supreme allied commander Europe and the head of US European Command, who took the post in July 2025 and is recorded on the leaked list as having attended Dialog gatherings since 2021. The website directory names sitting Trump administration officials, two US senators, six members of the Paypal Mafia, a former Middle East chief of intelligence, and a sitting ambassador to the United States, along with the founders and directors of many of the country's largest surveillance, data-broker, and advertising-data companies.

Those executives appear side by side with senior US officials overseeing their industries. Auren Hoffman, Dialog’s chairman, founded the location-data broker SafeGraph and the identity-resolution firm LiveRamp, two of the most important suppliers in the consumer data economy. He appears in the directory alongside Treasury secretary Scott Bessent, whose department writes the rules on financial data, and Senator Ted Cruz, chairman of the Commerce, Science, and Transportation Committee, which oversees the Federal Trade Commission and its data-privacy authority.

Palantir cofounder Joe Lonsdale, whose software runs case management for US Immigration and Customs Enforcement and data fusion for the Pentagon and intelligence community, is listed in the same society as Army secretary Dan Driscoll and Representative Jim Himes, the ranking member of the House Intelligence Committee, which oversees agencies Palantir contracts with.

If you are a cis person just state your pronouns, or state the pronouns you'd like to use that day. He, she, they, it, xie, per, these are all fine. "Any pronoun is fine" is also fine if it's true. "My pronouns are sparkle/sunshine," fuck all the way off. Also, do not ever add "obviously."

They aren’t saying what the agent’s condition is, so I’m taking that as an admission he wasn’t actually struck by the van at all. If he’d been injured, they’d be yelling about it. Far more likely he just opened fire on a fleeing suspect who posed no threat.

Happy Pride to this Caravaggio self-portrait that made one man so gay he had to go to the hospital
Caravaggio's Baccus painting, featuring a lush fruity spread and leaves bedecking a pasty twink who only works out his armsArticle screenshot that says:

The most extreme examples of
Stendhal syndrome share a sensation of
self-fragmentation. Magherini
describes the case of a 53-year-old
German man who was hospitalized
after repeatedly viewing Caravaggio's
Bacchus at Uffizi Gallery. The patient
felt "an attraction closer and closer to
an intimate sexual arousal of
ambiguous nature that invaded him
and made him feel good and bad."
Unmoored and distressed, he sought
medical attention. After treating the
subject's initial episode, Magherini
writes that he came to recognize his
latent homosexuality. Another case...

If the president throws a tantrum when he's pressed about his lies about election fraud and walks away from the interview, your response should be to remind your viewers of all the ways in which those lies were dismissed by the courts. Not promise to give him a do over after he's had nap time.
