Call it what it is: a pay-for-access grift. The top 185 Trump coin holders get a costly dinner, the top four get a gold watch, and buyers have lost an estimated $4.7 billion while Trump banks $635 million. The most corrupt meme coin dinner in history. #CostOfTrumpsCorruption

a sure sign that something is "highly accepted" is if you have to threaten to impose the power of the state against those who don't accept it

The biggest deception of the digital age is a media ecosystem that seems on its face like it offers a diversity of perspectives and open access to the public square, all while oligarchs’ algorithms imperceptibly control the entire discourse in service of their desired political outcomes.

In this Washington State diner, Hawk still means Sheriff Truman's deputy. But they do know this: If Jack Smith had attended an Atlanta-Golden State NBA game in February 2024, it would have proved that he was in town to cover up the Fani Willis/Nathan Wade romance, thus absolving Donald Trump.

"I don't care." Trump knows Paxton could lose, his ego can't accept losing. He's setting the stage to say, "I never cared, so it's not my fault," after Paxton loses. Like when he declared he didn't care about negotiating w/ Iran. When he sees a loss coming, he needs everyone to know he doesn't care

The plan for the war is to the lie to the public about the war. This sometimes leads to ridiculous things, like the president announcing that Iran wants to lower gas and diesel prices but he won't let them, and telling the Iranians that they're right to see the upcoming US midterms as leverage.

The next question is, why didn't Netanyahu warn Israel of the impending Hamas attack on 7 October, 2023. What really happened and why? Inquiries are needed.
Content: The posts accuse Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu of past policies intended to weaken the Palestinian Authority, comment on his ongoing legal and corruption proceedings, and assert shared culpability or strategic alignment regarding the October 7 attacks.

NYT has now independently corroborated all the major allegations against Susan Collins in the ProPublica report, including that investigators were prepared to move against her and then Trump intervened to shut it down. This put Trump in a position of exceptional and extortionate leverage over her.
