Daily Beast: The European Parliament, sitting in Strasbourg, unveils a statue by Dutch artist Jens Galschiot, of an 8.5 foot tall naked Trump, covered in gold leaf, riding another man, golf club in one hand, the Scales of Justice in the other. Titled "The King of Injustice". Or "The Orange Plague".

South African judge Navi Pillay - who headed a UN commission that last year found Israel was committing a genocide in Gaza - has just been awarded the Nobel Peace Prize. The Nobel committee hailed her as "one of the most respected international jurists of our time."

I really don’t think a public execution by firing squad of a guy in a wheel chair is going to look how they expect it to look.

1. Is airing Hasan’s execution legal given Federal execution regulations (such as 28 CFR § 26.4) which explicitly prohibit any photographic, video, or electronic recording of federal executions.

No pay wall. The SCOTUS emergency ruling was unsigned The article asserts that states can elect to use the database but are not required to use the database It remains to be seen which states will use the database and how many voters are stricken from voting rolls www.nytimes.com/2026/09/25/u...

Title 10 versus title 32 authorities were the question. State governors already have the authority to block deployment of out-of-state national guard service members on Title 32 (state active duty) orders under 32 U.S. Code § 328.

Why stop there when you can put a Patriot missile battery on the roof of the Kennedy Center? Maybe install an underground aircraft hangar under the reflecting pool so V/STOL aircraft can pop up over the National Mall like S.H.I.E.L.D. Helicarriers .

Banning specific media outlets won’t make a difference with a 65% disapproval rating. As the GOP continues to crater I expect more extreme measures as Trump’s narcissistic injury intensifies.
Tumps recent post:  I am proud to announce that, effective immediately, I am banning Fake News CNN, MSNOW (who recently changed their name from MSNBC due to lack of viewership and credibility!), and Politico (The recipients of an illegal and ridiculous $8 Million Dollar subscription, an All Time Record, directly from the United States Government, under Crooked Joe Biden, in order to keep them “alive.” Seems like corruption to me!), from the White House as a result of their constant “reporting” FAKE NEWS! Media Outlets shouldn’t be able to constantly write or report FICTION and LIES when they’re covering the President of the United States, the Trump Administration, or the United States of America.
