Whether it’s Barack Obama, appearing in a tan suit or Donald Trump appearing 1700 times in Jeffrey Epstein‘s emails, both presidents made some highly controversial appearances.

So they didn’t like the ad. Let’s just post Reagan’s 5 min speech against tariffs as it appears on YouTube.

Over and over. On all platforms (some of y’all are still on X).

*1981 Sherrilyn horrified by 2025 Sherrilyn saying “let’s post Reagan’s speech.”

The United States is no longer negotiating with Canada because the America's Republican President does not understand his predecessor's view of tariffs.

Forget the clip that worries the President. Reagan was consistent, and here's a different speech where he made his case.

Out of curiosity I looked if Enshittification (the book) is on sale on Enshittification (the website), aka Amazon (Dutch site).

Seems they undercut Cory Doctorow on the price of the hardcover... however they're somewhat tardy in their delivery.

Moet hieraan denken: het meest linkse kabinet dat Nederland ooit gekend heeft (Den Uyl 1973-1977), kwam tot stand doordat (a) centrum-links oprecht naar links wilde en niet stiekem naar rechts, en (b) dit vooraf kenbaar maakte.

There’s no longer any pretense this has anything to do with crime (there are cities or parts of cities in SC and Ohio that have higher crime rates than DC — send the troops there!). This is about establishing a precedent for Trump seizing control of the nation’s capital when he wants to.
WASHINGTON (AP) — South Carolina, Ohio also sending National Guard troops to DC in further escalation of federal intervention in Dem city.

In this thread, I lay out more than a dozen facts about Trump and his child-molester friends Jeffrey Epstein and Ghislaine Maxwell.
I challenge you to read the whole thread and then decide what the odds are that Trump did not abuse girls or tolerate his pals Epstein and Maxwell doing so.

Out in the open: the US administration’s attempt to undermine the EU Digital Services Act (and other regulations) was evident.

Now it has been elevated to formal policy and goal of diplomatic efforts.

Exclusive: Rubio orders US diplomats to launch lobbying blitz against Europe's tech law
President Donald Trump's administration has instructed U.S. diplomats in Europe to launch a lobbying campaign to build an opposition to the European Union's Digital Services Act, which Washington says stifles free speech and imposes costs on U.S. tech companies, an internal diplomatic cable seen by Reuters showed.

No, NYT, the “rules of global commerce” did not “give way”. They’re inanimate.

Trump blew up the rules and replaced them with nothing but mobster threats.
