BlackRock, KKR, Vanguard, State Street, Cerberus, Goldman, Morgan Stanley, CoreCivic, and GEO Group all partnered w/Trump’s #DHS to build an eviction > detention > asset-flipping pipeline—profiteering as #ICE clears buildings, every mass deportation action triggering waves of rental asset turnover.

It’s easy to lose track of what real connection feels like in the scroll. Here’s to all of us screaming into the abyss… and hoping sometimes, someone echoes back.

Apart from helping Comey's selective prosecution defense, this also means the president of the United States uses direct messages on Truth Social to communicate with cabinet officials.

I didn't know that, but we can be sure intelligence agencies all over the planet already did.

All for wannabe dictator, Javier Milei, obsessed with crushing political opponents, gutting social safety nets, and criminalizing protest. He’s embraced authoritarian tactics that threaten Argentina’s hard-won democratic rights and freedoms in a replay of their 1976-1983 dictatorship’s “Dirty War”.

Here's the TOTAL budgets of some other agencies that are being cut so the Admin can send $20B your tax dollars to their ideological friends:

- EPA (clean air and water): $9.1B

- NOAA (weather forecasts, warn if hurricane coming): $6.8B

- DOE EERE (energy efficiency & renewable energy): $3.4B

We're spending $20B to bail out Argentina, but they cut USAID down to the bone, causing deaths around the world. The entire budget of USAID, the whole agency, was $21B last year. Shameful.

The Washington Post @washingtonpost.com · 9h

The Trump administration confirmed that the U.S. bailed out Argentina.

Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent said he had directly bought Argentine pesos in global currency markets in a bid to relieve pressure on the nation’s embattled President Javier Milei, a supporter of President Trump.

The U.S. just bailed out Argentina, Treasury Secretary confirms

The US Treasury has finalized a $20 billion financial rescue of Argentina, including a currency swap arrangement with the country's central bank.

Lindsey Halligan, the attorney selected by Donald Trump to bring criminal charges against James Comey, has never prosecuted a case.

But, like Trump, she did get her start in reality TV — with a brief cameo on South Beach Tow.

Here is Halligan’s newly resurfaced TV moment:
