Donald Trump

Elon Musk posted a tweet yesterday calling for the defunding of the ACLU: The American Civil Liberties Union.

Yes he is that clueless, he actually thinks they can defund a privately run and financed organisation, that's not defunding, that's stealing money, but then again he's a billionaire so he has got away with the same stuff for so long he probably think he can actually do that!

ACLU is a registered non-profit, which means quite a lot when it comes to taxes and to their donors being able to claim donations in their tax returns.

So yes, evil billionaire can indeed make life very difficult for organisations like ACLU and effectively defund them.

And remember he's only doing this because his trans daughter cut him off because of his toxic intolerance.

Petty and capricious.

Ah but we already know the Republican's wouldn't do that, that would be like, you know, de-banking, and they really hate that....oh sorry, they hate that when it happens to them!

Ah yes, who didn't see that coming after Trump "embraced" bitcoin?

“It’s not liquid like cash that you can easily spend or invest or use for practical purposes,” he went on. “It has no practical use really outside of a few gimmicks. And it’s very useful for criminal cartels. So, if you’re an investor, you are sitting on this speculative asset. You can’t actually do anything with it, but it’s worth a lot of money. What’s more, if you try to sell it all off to get rid of it, the hoards of Bitcoin on the exchanges, that’s gonna flood the market and tank the price. So what’s the solution? They’re gonna sell to the U.S. government.”

I mean it's right there in that paragraph, bitcoin is essentially worthless, you can't use it for anything, so it has no value, if the US government buys it they will have an asset that has no value, in exchange for $100b;

I first heard about the greater fool theory of finance in relation to bitcoin... your a fool if you buy it, unless there is a greater fool you can sell it too. But there is no greater fool than Trump with the power of the Presidency, so that would be the end of the road. It could be the ultimate scam, the Trump pump n dump!

[stevebrooks]

It appears the judge in the Hunter Biden case is claiming that Joe's pardon of his son is unconstitutional, which is bizarre because the pardon power of the President is one of the more robust powers granted to the President. If the pardon is unconstitutional, does this also make all of Trump's pardons unconstitutional? It's a dangerous path to tread for sure;

[stevebrooks]

It appears that the Trump Presidential Transition Team are just going out and picking countries and declaring that this is the country we are going to deport everyone to. Of course these countries are just turning around and saying, WTF? Fuck off...in more words of course, latest is Bahamas, supposedly the idea was all the illegal immigrants that couldn't be shipped to countries of origin were going to be sent to the Bahamas.

Do I need to re-iterate again that Hitlers first plan for the Jews was to ship them all to Madagascar, that didn't work out for him......so.....

Ok, this is the guy RFK wants to put in charge of the Raw Milk department. His farm has been quarantined, his milk recalled due to bird flu contamination, his argument? It's a natural process.......yes that's it. Pasteurization was a process invented to stop people dying, these idiots are now taking the world backwards, hopefully we all learn from the US example, but if bird flu breaks out we will all suffer from it;

Milk is an excellent medium for microbial growth,[18] and when it is stored at ambient temperature, bacteria and other pathogens soon proliferate.[19] The US Centers for Disease Control (CDC) says improperly handled raw milk is responsible for nearly three times more hospitalizations than any other food-borne disease source, making it one of the world's most dangerous food products.[20][21] Diseases prevented by pasteurization can include tuberculosis, brucellosis, diphtheria, scarlet fever, and Q-fever; it also kills the harmful bacteria Salmonella, Listeria, Yersinia, Campylobacter, Staphylococcus aureus, and Escherichia coli O157:H7,[22][23] among others.

I mean 3 times more deaths, wait for that to climb to 20x or 100x if the raw milk madness starts spreading widely throughout the US.

Oh yes jump to 5:26 if you want to hear words from the idiots mouth!

Trump basically confesses on live interview that all the promises he made, lower grocery prices, lower energy prices, ACA replacement, lower taxes, lower interest rates etc were all lies to get him elected. Of course many of us already knew that, but it appears some people are going to be surprised because they are, lets face it, uneducated and ignorant!

It does appear that not a single thing he promised during his election campaign will actually happen.....colour me surprised:



Oh hang on, he just might still do the revenge thing, he's talking about locking up Liz Cheney still!

Oh yes, one of the more ludicrous claims he made, he basically invented the word groceries because before him nobody ever used it!

Alarmingly, i've met two people recently who talked up the benefits of raw milk, so this bullshit is alive and well in australia. As for the 'natural' argument! Ffs, its certainly 'natural' to drink raw milk if you're a baby cow, if you happen to not be a bovine calf....yeah nah not so natural.

[Loki]

Oh come on

It's totally natural to drink raw milk

Also totally natural to die horribly from it
