Lots of sympathy here from Trump for Andrew. Nothing for the survivors. bsky.app/profile/acyn...
Trump on the arrest of former prince Andrew: I’m the expert because I’ve been totally exonerated. I think it’s a shame. To me, it’s a very sad thing. I’ve been totally exonerated.

DOOCY: Barack Obama said that aliens are real. Have you seen any evidence of non-human visitors to earth?
TRUMP: Well, he gave classified information. He's not supposed to be doing that.
DOOCY: So aliens are real?
TRUMP: I don't know if they're real or not. He made a big mistake.

Never in a million years did I ever fathom when I resurrected the Epstein story in 2018 that it would lead to first arrest of a British Royal in four centuries. Not since King Charles I was arrested in 1647.

Trump's insight that being openly corrupt makes him immune to the conventions of "political scandals" is perhaps the greatest example of his peculiar political genius.
Trump: "This building was built for peace. Nobody knew what to name it, and then Marco named it after me. I had nothing to do with it. I swear. They said, 'There's a surprise coming.' I thought they were gonna give me a lot of money or something. Maybe cash. Can always use some extra cash."

Hyperscalers are tearing hard drives out of the hands of manufacturers. Prices are therefore also rising for SSDs.

Probleem is: de beeldvormende talkshows willen dit gesprek niet voeren. Want dit is echt serieus. Je kunt niet sturen op ophef over poppetjes. En je kunt er geen clowns tussen zetten, aan de talkshow tafel. Opiniepeilingen zijn niet relevant. Dus de vaste 'duiders' zitten met een mond vol tanden.
