Trump's Second Term

[dirtywick]

It's nt just a pump and dump scheme. The opportunities for Presidential level bribery are also significant...

well i also don’t really understand that either. yes, you can just funnel unlimited money to trump, but since we know which wallets belong to trump it’s just going to exposed a network of bribery. so, the problem is the bribery is very public.

i don’t know that they thought this through. or they just don’t care. i mean, they just rugged a bunch of their supporters so probably don’t care.

either way, just look how many tens of millions they made in transaction fees in the last 24 hours between trump coin, melania coin, and world liberty financial. this whole thing is a scam on a scale that you can’t even imagine.

STATEMENT FROM PRESIDENT DONALD J. TRUMP

I am pleased to announce that former Director of National Intelligence John Ratcliffe will serve as Director of the Central Intelligence Agency (CIA).

From exposing fake Russian collusion to be a Clinton campaign operation, to catching the FBI's abuse of Civil Liberties at the FISA Court, John Ratcliffe has always been a warrior for Truth and Honesty with the American Public. When 51 intelligence officials were lying about Hunter Biden's laptop, there was one, John Ratcliffe, telling the truth to the American People.

For these and many other reasons, it was my great honor in 2020 to award John the National Security Medal, the Nation's highest honor for distinguished achievement in the field of Intelligence and National Security.

I look forward to John being the first person ever to serve in both of our Nation's highest Intelligence positions. He will be a fearless fighter for the Constitutional Rights of all Americans, while ensuring the Highest Levels of National Security, and PEACE THROUGH STRENGTH.

And Strength Through Joy, no doubt.

Thank you. The ADL (not exactly known for underplaying the anti-Semite card) has said that it was not a Nazi salute.


If you folks want to amuse yourself by pretending it was a Nazi salute, fine, but don't kid yourself that you are behaving skeptically. You're indulging your confirmation bias.

Gaslighting isn't going to work. Why are you so adamant in defending fElon Musk? He is a white supremacist that has ties to white supremacist groups. Body of work. Evidence. Reasoning. You are forming conclusions that go against all of this.

Thank you. The ADL (not exactly known for underplaying the anti-Semite card) has said that it was not a Nazi salute.

That's already been addressed upthread, and I'm not sure what makes the ADL's opinion definitive. I can cite historians and experts in fascism who very much think it was a Nazi salute. So do a lot of actual Nazis. Where does that leave us?

With the video you still refuse to address.

If you folks want to amuse yourself by pretending it was a Nazi salute, fine, but don't kid yourself that you are behaving skeptically. You're indulging your confirmation bias.

What "confirmation bias" are you referring to? I watched a video of Elon Musk performing a Nazi salute and came away with the conclusion that Elon Musk performed a Nazi salute. Because the video very clearly shows him performing a Nazi salute.

The only bias in this thread is from willfully blind Trump supporters and apologists pretending that the video doesn't exist.

 

[thaiboxerken]

The Nazis think it was a Nazi salute.

His trousers and jacket don't match. Was this the case all day, or was there a spillage?

Watch Trump and Vance. They know they're being chastised, and they sure don't like it.

Yeah, Leon's advocating for AfD, a neo nazi/ white supremacist group whose leader has been prosecuted twice for using nazi slogans, and whose daggers are engraved with the nazi slogan Alles für Deutschland. Musk isn't fooling anyone. Well, maybe magats.

Magats are wanting us to dull Occam's razor so much that it will only cut butter.

They don't like it that they are in a place where they can't publicly retaliate. But Congressman Mike Collins believes he has the answer King Felonious wants to hear: That American-born bishop needs to be deported because she criticised Mr Unconditional Discharge!

Okay, but I would like to know to what extent it is normal to have a lot of churn with jobs when a new president comes in.

ETA: Well, it looks like most of them serve a four-year term that goes up to the end of May. So maybe not normal, but we're going to see a lot of not normal for a while.

 

[Bogative]

Watching this "skeptics" forum devolve into left-wing PrisonPlanet has been highly entertaining!

Read some of the posts and replace Trump with Obama or Clinton and the two are indistinguishable. Hilarious!

The fourth reason listed for Fagan’s dismissal is the “excessive focus on Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion (DEI) policies,” which diverted resources from mission initiatives, according to the senior DHS official’s statement.

Trump says he has signed a full and unconditional pardon for Ross Ulbricht, who operated Silk Road, the infamous dark web marketplace.

He said

"The scum that worked to convict him were some of the same lunatics who were involved in the modern day weaponization of government against me,"

Not sure but it must have something to do with enriching himself, or some perceived slight.

That's it. Revenge for attempts to hold him responsible.

 

[Andy_Ross]

Trump has ordered that the federal death penalty be reinstated.
It would apply to any "capital crime committed by an alien illegally present in this country" and anyone convicted of murdering a law-enforcement officer.

That a criminal drug and weapon dealer complicit in many deaths is a perfectly acceptable vocation.
