Pay attention to stuff like this. It’s an indicator of where to look for corruption.

NEW: The private jet that flew 10 shackled migrants to an Eswatini prison last weekend is owned by Israeli-American billionaires with close ties to Trump.

If anyone ever fit the common definition of the antichrist it would be Trump, by like a mile.

kenfinch.bsky.social @kenfinch.bsky.social · 2d
