In last night’s Presidential address, Donald Trump promised financial presents in the New Year. “The speech had a whiff of desperation about it,” @sbg1.bsky.social writes. Does he secretly know that America isn’t buying what he’s selling? newyorkermag.visitlink.me/C45yqs

Following the news of the murder of Rob Reiner and his wife, Michele, on his flailing social media platform, Trump issued an ugly rant.

This foul and hate-driven conduct is nothing new. But his post about Rob suggests that he might be losing the ability to restrain himself.
Rob Reiner was a mensch. In death, he showed us Trump’s a schmuck.
The president's remarks about the murder of the filmmaker and his wife cast Trump as petty and callous.

Ahmed al Ahmed, the man who tackled one of the Bondi killers, became an Australian citizen 3 years ago.

His deed was "his way of conveying his gratitude for staying in Australia, for being granted citizenship."

He took 5 bullets, and fears he'll lose his left arm.
