There was a comprehensive article in the Guardian several years ago about this. Oddly, it promptly disappeared.

It’s Day 11 of #TrumpsWar. This war of choice has already cost the lives of 7 American service members and numerous innocent civilians in the region, driven up gas prices, and cost taxpayers billions. And Trump and his administration are STILL struggling to answer the question “What’s next?”

Teen models, powerful men and private dinners: when Trump hosted Look of the Year
In the early 90s, Donald Trump judged contestants at the world’s biggest modelling competition - since hit by allegations of abuse. This is how the people who were there remember it

A deranged convicted felon who wants to distract from his involvement with Jeffrey Epstein is lying about Washington, DC, which tallied a 30-year low in violent crime last year. It’s important to keep speaking the truth and not permit this pathological liar to control the narrative.

Doesn’t deploy federal troops to stop a Capitol invasion or save children from a Texas flood or clean up debris from a StL tornado. Deployed federal troops to disperse people in sleeping bags. Got it.

The military takeover of Washington is not a “distraction” from Epstein. It’s a military takeover of Washington, which is an even bigger deal, and those of us who kill brain cells reporting on this stuff knows it’s been an explicit goal since before the election.

I’m not surprised that tens of millions of Americans have been hoodwinked by a con artist. But I am disappointed that they’ve been hoodwinked by such an *obvious* con artist. And for so long. These easy marks encourage new entrants in the con-artist industry, and some of them are less obvious.

I don’t know how long it will take, but the Republicans’ abandonment of the truth to protect Trump will finally sink him and them. Stand up for the truth, Americans, to hasten that moment.

The fact that the President of the United States posts a fake video of a kneeling Barack Obama being handcuffed and we’re supposed to pretend it’s perfectly normal, everyday stuff shows exactly what is terribly wrong with today’s political mainstream media.

Trump when Epstein files came up: “I can’t believe you asked a question about Epstein at a time like this with what happened in TX. Seems like a desecration.” Trump minutes later pointing to the ceiling: “Should I gold leaf the corners? Painting is easy but it won’t look right.”

This is what the NY Times chose to highlight from the Netanyahu/Trump meeting, compared to Al Jazeera. You decide which is the important news.
Two headlines: from the NYTimes and Al Jazeera. "Netanyahu, Trump discuss forced transfer of Palestinians out of Gaza" and "Netanyahu releases letter nominating Trump for Nobel Peace Prize"

"...future generations look back on and ask, “How did no one stop it?” And the only honest answer is: we didn’t want to believe it was real. It is real. It is here. And it is happening in our name. This is Alligator Auschwitz." Riveting article. Sad day for the States. Fucking unbelievable.

Alligator Auschwitz
Trump built a concentration camp in the Everglades, filled it with tents, barbed wire, and migrants — then laughed about the alligators guarding it.

It’s a terrible bill. It will literally kill people. The most vulnerable among us will suffer as the wealthiest benefit. It’s perverse. I wish there were something I could do. But alas, I am only a U.S. Senator from Alaska whose “no” vote would kill the bill. So I voted yes. You get it.
