$937,989.39: That's the amount of the penalty owed by Trump and Alina Habba, according to a new appeals court decision, which upheld a 2023 ruling that Trump and Habba committed "sanctionable conduct" by filing a "frivolous" lawsuit against Hillary Clinton and James Comey.

No matter how long I live after we get through this dark chapter, I will never get over the immorality, the amorality, the corruption, the criminality and the cruelty in service to one of the worst humans to ever walk the earth.

The president of the United States called a NYT female reporter “ugly.”

This is the third insult towards a female reporter just in the past couple of weeks.

Does this ugly fat motherfucker not own a mirror?

Maybe it wasn't the best idea to put unscrupulous people in charge who think they will be Raptured before the war crime trials convene.

It is a shame that Brazil’s judges are so activist that none of them stepped in to change the laws for Jair Bolsonaro.

In July, the US will mark its 250th anniversary. The question of which stories will be told & how they’ll be framed, remains a point of contention. Maybe by going back, reinvesting some time in our origin story we’ll be able to put the ‘us’ back in the US

"The most openly corrupt president in US history."
NEWS --> BBC confirms to me that they did edit a line out of historian @rutgerbregman.com's speech. It called Trump "the most openly corrupt president in US history."

BBC also confirms this was done on the advice of lawyers. So Trump's threats worked.

New piece:

Trump’s Fury at BBC Gets Unnerving Results with Pro-MAGA Edit Stunner
First, British Broadcasting Corporation execs resigned after Trump complained about a segment. Now the BBC edited out a line from a historian that was critical of Trump. Where does this end?
