NYT wrote a 2,400 word story abt Todd Blanche without mentioning that he personally ordered the arrest of Newark Mayor @rasjbaraka.bsky.social, and as such is deeply implicated in @replamonica.bsky.social case.

The front page of a NYT story, titled, "Part Enabler, Part Buffer: the Bind of the Justice Dept's No. 2"

A picture shows Blanche partly visible behind a journalist's raised hand.

All because on Friday Trump threatened 100% tariffs on China, then over the weekend he switched it up with, “Don’t worry about China, it’ll all be fine.”

Not market manipulation, though. Right?

There is no case for Trump getting a peace prize—ever.

There is s staggeringly ironclad case for him to be immediately imprisoned for war crimes. And here it is.

Media and MAGA Calls for Trump to Catch a Nobel Peace Prize Rather Than An ICC War Crimes Indictment Are Obscene

The second-biggest threat to global peace after Putin has earned a cell for war crimes—not a humanitarian award. That his grotesque and scammy appeal for a Nobel Peace Prize is working is terrifying.

ANY of their crypto or NFT businesses would have been a waste of money if they didn't have government backing or active assistance.

Trump's conversation with Indonesian President Prabowo Subianto is caught on a hot mic. Hard to tell exactly what they are talking about, but Subianto asks Trump about meeting Eric Trump and Don Jr, who supposedly have nothing to do with government while they run the family business.

Ah yes, air traffic controllers must show up for work without pay, but Congress can take the day off. Transportation Secretary Sean Duffy says he’ll be making “necessary cuts” to the department, because nothing fixes staffing shortages quite like firing more people.

The Republicans only need enough air traffic controllers to handle their own jets.

Everyone else can hire their own ATCs.

Trump says he has a “concept” of a healthcare plan.
Not a plan.
A concept.
That’s the first tell — because there is no plan. There’s only a blueprint for dismantling what exists, punishing those who struggle, and rewarding those who were born into comfort.

🩸 TRUMP'S BIG "BEAUTIFUL" BILL KILLS

His cruel gov't shutdown and classist, racist “concept of a plan" will lead to pain, suffering & death for millions of struggling Americans

"Most Americans probably don’t have a detailed grasp of what’s happening with ACA subsidies right now, but once people start getting letters notifying them of how much their premiums are going up, it will become a much bigger issue."

Republicans are completely full of it on healthcare

And it becomes more obvious every time they talk about it.

ICE has been deployed to *provoke* civilians, not to protect them. They want to throw tear gas canisters and get people on the streets riled up, all to create footage for Fox News and Newsmax, et al., that will be used as a pretext for imposing martial law to lower voting rates in Democratic cities.

Then we have to appeal to something they value, which are none of the things WE value....

Which is the base of the issue.
