Green = where the military-industrial complex/conservatives (including Silicon Valley war mongers) will steer the media. 000

Paul Loop @ploop52.bsky.social · 24/04/2026100% Trump's fault. The peak price of Brent crude oil under Biden was $104/barrel in 2022 — in the thick of the inflationary backwash from the COVID-19 pandemic. By the time Biden left office, the price was in the $70s and stayed there until Trump and Israel started the catastrophic war in Iran. 000

Paul Loop @ploop52.bsky.social · 15/09/2025Speaking of the NYT. It is extraordinary that Peter Baker could produce a story based on this premise in 2025. 010
Paul Loop @ploop52.bsky.social · 15/09/2025It is extraordinary that Peter Baker could produce a story based on this premise in 2025. NO Republican in high office since GHW Bush (and this is being charitable) has had the slightest interest in unifying this country. 010
Paul Loop @ploop52.bsky.social · 12/09/2025The mayors of the municipalities Trump has threatened to invade with U.S. military troops (so far).

Paul Loop @ploop52.bsky.social · 06/08/2025This azzhole with numbers is like watching a toddler texting. Today he said he has highest approval eveer. 71% love him because of tariffs, he says. 1) That's Republicans; 2) it's a shitty number at that from his own party. In the real world: 37% in the conservative-friendly Gallup poll. 000

Paul Loop @ploop52.bsky.social · 11/05/2025Gotta wonder if Schumer will ever grow a spine and primary this jerk, who has grabbed the baton from Joe Manchin in the race to political oblivion. 000
