There's a crucial difference between the new celebrities seated at the White House dinner table and the old ones: They are not there to amuse us but to monetize us, writes @joannacoles.bsky.social.

Tech Moguls Have Stolen Hollywood’s Seat at the White House Dinner Table
It’s a power grab. And a political bargain.

There is also his WW2 service - he went to Sandhurst before Hollywood and rejoined the army when war broke out...

"Night in blue" by Ukrainian artist Alisa Onipchenko-Cherniakovska.
The painting is described as a mesmerizing nocturnal seascape that uses layered oil paint and expressive gestures to explore how light transforms space.

This 👇 - They have failed both the Judicial Oath and the Constitutional Oath. They are not impartial, neutral arbiters of the law and don't even try to hide that they are influenced by their own personal political preferences.

I don’t think we talk nearly enough about the fact that corporations like Amazon, don’t pay a single cent to maintain the roads they use, the transportation system they use, the courts they use, they pay nothing for the infrastructure that is absolutely critical to their business. WE Pay for

Pay attention folks. This is how it's done. Trump sues his own DOJ, run by his private attorney, for $10 billion. Normally that would go through the courts with the DOJ arguing AGAINST giving Trump $10 billion. Instead, his DOJ will negotiate a settlement OUTSIDE of court. Literally inside dealing.
