I have just viewed the clip of the event which took place in Minneapolis, Minnesota. It is a horrible thing to watch. The woman screaming was, obviously, a professional agitator, and the woman driving the car was very disorderly, obstructing and resisting, who then violently, willfully, and viciously ran over the ICE Officer, who seems to have shot her in self defense. Based on the attached clip, it is hard to believe he is alive, but is now recovering in the hospital. The situation is being studied, in its entirety, but the reason these incidents are happening is because the Radical Left is threatening, assaulting, and targeting our Law Enforcement Officers and ICE Agents on a daily basis. They are just trying to do the job of MAKING AMERICA SAFE. We need to stand by and protect our Law Enforcement Officers from this Radical Left Movement of Violence and Hate!

He hastily demolished the East Wing without a plan or approval from anyone, and it is significantly likely that when he leaves there will still be nothing there but a hole in ground, in a metaphor for his presidency that is too on the nose for any writer to imagine.

Kind of crazy how much this was described as “getting up to look at his ballroom.” But isn’t it still just a hole in the ground?

Wrote about the use of misogyny and homophobia to diminish Renee Good's life and excuse her death open.substack.com/pub/autonomy...
Those who wished to diminish, or even celebrate, Good’s murder are galling in their moral depravity, their unmitigated eagerness to lie about the circumstances of her death, and their desperation to turn an avoidable tragedy into yet another gleeful spectacle of shared enemies and open cruelty. Few have been as visible in this display as Vice President J.D. Vance, who, from the White House briefing room to his obnoxious presence on social media, has devoted hours and hours to lecturing the American people on why Renee Good simply deserved to die. Vance has elected to make himself the face of Good’s murder in part, I believe, because Good’s life—full of creative ambition, love lost and gained, and queer freedom—is anathema to Vance’s own narrow, rigid gender ideology. The goal of devaluing her life is consistent with his transparently psychosexual and coercive natalist politics and his frequent jeremiads about the breakdown of the patriarchal family. Vance’s target audience—the only audience capable of looking past his mealy-mouthed distortions and middle-management comportment—is bitter, terrified men delighted by any opportunity to enact revenge on a mythical gynocracy.

Q: Do you see any checks on your power on the world stage? Is there anything that could stop you?

Trump: My own morality, my own mind. It's the only thing that can stop me

Q: Not international law?

Trump: I don't need international law.

During Fiona Hill's testimony to Congress on Oct 14, 2019, she described how Trump and Putin discussed exchanging Ukraine for Venezuela. The quid pro quo was if Trump refuses to help Ukraine fight off a Russian invasion, Putin would not help Venezuela (a Russian ally) resist a US takeover.

No matter how rich he becomes, how many grifts and crimes he gets away with, how much attention and praise he gets, how much power he gains, how many buildings bear his name, how many golden gifts and awards he receives, he’s still just a bitter, miserable halfwit child.

Merry Christmas to all, including the Radical Left Scum that is doing everything possible to destroy our Country, but are failing badly. We no longer have Open Borders, Men in Women’s Sports, Transgender for Everyone, or Weak Law Enforcement. What we do have is a Record Stock Market and 401K’s, Lowest Crime numbers in decades, No Inflation, and yesterday, a 4.3 GDP, two points better than expected. Tariffs have given us Trillions of Dollars in Growth and Prosperity, and the strongest National Security we have ever had. We are respected again, perhaps like never before. God Bless America!!!

The simplest possible explanation for the Trump administration's actions is that Trump sexually abused minors with Jeffrey Epstein and there is further evidence in the files he's trying to cover up.

Breaking: The Trump administration announces that they will not be complying with today’s deadline to release the full Epstein Files.

They insist the files will be released in the next “couple weeks.”

“There is no place for political violence in this country.”

Why say that every time this happens? There obviously IS a place for political violence in this country, and we all know who made it.

Every part of this is bonkers. The intro is bonkers. The transition to his health is bonkers. The mention that other presidents didn't need cognitive exams is bonkers. The claim that this screening test is somehow hard is bonkers. The idea that criticism of him is treason is bonkers. All of it.
There has never been a President that has worked as hard as me! My hours are the longest, and my results are among the best. I’ve stopped Eight Wars, saving many millions of lives in the process, created the Greatest Economy in the History of our Country, brought Business back into the United States at levels never seen before, rebuilt our Military, created the Largest Tax Cuts and Regulation Cuts, EVER, closed our open and very dangerous Southern Border, when previous Administrations were unable to do so, and created an “aura” around the United States of America that has led every Country in the World to respect us more than ever before. In addition to all of that, I go out of my way to do long, thorough, and very boring Medical Examinations at the Great Walter Reed National Military Medical Center, seen and supervised by top doctors, all of whom have given me PERFECT Marks — Some have even said they have never seen such Strong Results. I do these Tests because I owe it to our Country. In addition to the Medical, I have done something that no other President has done, on three separate occasions, the last one being recently, by taking what is known as a Cognitive Examination, something which few people would be able to do very well, including those working at The New York Times, and I ACED all three of them in front of large numbers of doctors and experts, most of whom I do not know. I have been told that few people have been able to “ace” this Examination and, in fact, most do very poorly, which is why many other Presidents have decided not to take it at all. Despite all of this, the time and work involved, The New York Times, and some others, like to pretend that I am “slowing up,” am maybe not as sharp as I once was, or am in poor physical health, knowing that it is not true, and knowing that I work very hard, probably harder than I have ever worked before. I will know when I am “slowing up,” but it’s not now! After all of the work I have done with Medical Exams, Cognitive Exams, and everything else, I actually believe it’s seditious, perhaps even treasonous, for The New York Times, and others, to consistently do FAKE reports in order to libel and demean “THE PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES.” They are true Enemies of the People, and we should do something about it. They have inaccurately reported on all of my Election Results and, in fact, were forced to apologize on much of what they wrote. The best thing that could happen to this Country would be if The New York Times would cease publication because they are a horrible, biased, and untruthful “source” of information. Thank you for your attention to this matter. MAKE AMERICA GREAT AGAIN!

Spotify is garbage on every count: Its treatment of artists, its ICE advertising, the CEO's investment in military AI, its leading role in the commodification and AI slopification of music, its terrible audio quality—you name it.
