A second generation nepo baby, raised by a pair of sociopaths and given every advantage in the world. I'm sure this story will end well.

Trump said he deserved a cut for brokering the TikTok deal, and at once there was agreement that his son Baron would have a top executive slot... though he hasn't asked for it, and has no apparent qualifications to hold it. This is how Trump 2.0 works. www.telegraph.co.uk/us/news/2025...

$47. And that’s if the government isn’t lying about the interest rate. Plus, they will have to prove she intentionally schemed to swindle $47 from the bank - as opposed to just not knowing the difference between a second home and an investment property. Good luck, Lindsay.

If you knew the history of the Redneck, you might understand why what this country did to the people of the Appalachians was pretty much what they did to everyone - destroy them to get to their land.

HeeHaw was white supremacy running these folks down for propaganda purposes. Business as usual.

The Battle of Blair Mountain. Over 500 “rednecks” were charged with treason, murder, & conspiracy to commit murder.

Christopher Webb @cwebbonline.com · 7h

OK, Pete Hegseth’s an idiot. He left out the word “training” when he said we’re building a Qatari Air Force facility. So I get why people were confused after his announcement yesterday, but I keep seeing folks repeat some version of “Qatar is building an airbase in Idaho.”

That’s not happening.

The nation’s largest private prison company is asking the Supreme Court to give federal contractors blanket immunity from lawsuits — including human trafficking claims.

If they win, private contractors could operate with even less accountability than they do now.

No legit reason the orange monster is allowing Qatar to build a Qatari-Ameri military air force base in Idaho.

They are literally an authoritarian monarchy that practice Sharia Law, and their citizens have virtually no freedoms. They are also widely known for their involvement in terrorism.
