Won't be surprised if some journalists "voluntarily" give over their Pulitzers, what with all the pending news-media consolidations.
And litterateurs giving their Nobel, Booker awards. Those Truths are obv. superior.
Not to forget bravery awards.

#Trump #corruption #autocracy #pardons

One very important point made by Maia Sandu, President of Moldova, in this interview: if you have dark money corrupting your elections, you cannot wait until after the elections to investigate, arrest, and debar candidates: once the corrupt are elected, you're stuck with them.

Now we see why Trump wants AI companies to thrive. There's every chance that AI companies are motivated and committed to "funding" this fusion company.
Just one more stop in the AI "investment circle jerk".

So next up…

Rubio’s statement was the most informative. Makes it clear this President is going to do whatever he wants to do. A warning for the world.
#theAmericanFascist will do what he wants.
Now he says the USA is in charge.
We’re going to run the country right. It’s going to make a lot of money. We’re going to reimburse people #corruption.
We are designating people…
He’s basically saying Venezuela is going to be run by people in the White House.

A bribe to get rid of a bribery charge. A truly third-world regime. 🥺
There's a lot more of this and worse in the linked #NYT article.

"I’m not looking for money. I’d give it to charity or something.”
Yup, most of it will go to "something" and to "charities" which are actually "something". Plus the tax break from giving to "charities".
Daylight robbery.

"Trump calls for end of Senate filibuster to break funding stalemate"
Ah yes, end filibuster to end shutdown, and keep the buster ended for all the grifting and dictating to come. 🤓

I don't know what y'all are complaining about. $230M is less than a dollar per person in USA; less than $2 per voter or tax filer.
How about y'all include $2 "injustice compensation" in annual tax filing for the next four years and we call it square? Deal? 🤑

List of donors for White House ballroom:
BTW the cost estimate went from $200M to $300M. I suppose it will keep going up as "more donors come forward".

Moving things from the back burner to the front in case the #Epstein files don't lose steam. The energy profits won't be bad anyway.

#NYT: Trump demands #DOJ pay him $230 million compensation for investigations into him.
Bondi will approve most/all of it while Congress twiddles thumbs. The guv shutdown has to work for someone. 🫤

This week in #USA:
- In the red corner: Sparring with #Venezuela, US #Navy fleet, #Greenland
- In the blue corner: #EpsteinFiles, Leaked #60mintues segment
Out of focus: #Corruption, #Ballroom, #Scam, Self aggrandization, #ICE misdeeds,...
Overall, I guess he wins this round. 😢
