Donald Trump "looking very strongly at" appointing Jose Canseco to head of the Federal Reserve. "He's been very fair to me in the past," Trump told the media on Air Force One. "And frankly much more fair than the Tampa Bay Rays were to him."

Barely anyone is going to see this, but if you’ve ever asked why X isn’t banned in the UK yet despite creating CSAM, it’s because the US government has enforced a worldwide policy of blackmail protecting the American tech oligarchy. It’s why TikTok can be banned but X cannot.
“Why can’t we have any regulations for US tech in Britain?”

Because the US trade rep has gone to every country including Britain and said if we regulate tech in a way that favours our people, industries and national interests, the US will bury us in tariffs and ruin our economy.

I just found out last night that the $50k enrollment bonus only pays out after 5 years of service, and reader, the laugh I let out when I read that woke the dog from across the house. These absolute fucking grapes aren't seeing a dime of that money. No way they can ride out 5 years of this job.

The problem with ICE is not insufficient training or even training content.

It’s creating an agency where you give people guns and tell them to terrorize Brown people and then recruit people excited to do that.

The Trump administration is clearly betting that Europe won’t shed blood for Greenland without realizing that Europe can inflict a lot of pain on the U.S. in other ways.
The Telegraph reports that Europeans expect Trump to disapprove a large deployment of military forces by NATO to Greenland, and is preparing for a severe deterioration of Atlantic relations as a result.

Kidnapping South American leaders, considering bombing Iran (again), and planning to invade Greenland are 100% either distracting from the pedo files or he’s really about to kick the bucket

Worth remembering, as Trump tries to brutalize blue states over alleged TANF fraud: Mississippi's former welfare director ran TANF as a private slush fund, routing tens of millions to churches, wrestlers, and celebrity pet projects (including Brett Favre's)—while rejecting over 90% of poor families.
NEW: Text messages reveal the strange relationship that John Davis, the former Mississippi official who directed millions in welfare dollars to sports celebrities, shared with WWE wrestlers Ted DiBiase Jr. and Brett DiBiase.

"It is me who tried to buy your love," he wrote in one text read in court.

In our upcoming budget, we’re investing over $124 million to support law enforcement – the highest level of funding in state history.

When I took office, we made a promise to deliver a comprehensive plan on public safety—one that responds to crime *and* actually addresses the root of crime.
