This man's narcissism and his cult following's adoration is nauseating. This coin is proposed for America's 250th birthday. Ran out of gift articles.
Headline: A Two-Headed Coin That Always Comes Up 'Trump' Subhead: Would a proposed coin featuring the president on both sides commemorate America's founding, or undercut its founding principles? Image: Front of coin with bas-relief profile of Trump's head. Verbiage: "LIBERTY" "IN GOD WE TRUST" "1776-2026." Back of coin with Trump from chest up with raised fist standing in front of American Flag. Verbiage: "FIGHT•FIGHT•FIGHT" "$1" "UNITED STATES OF AMERICA" "E PLURIBUS UNUM" NYTimes Nov 9, 2025

@maddow.msnbc.com was right. Imagine how many *more* people would have come out for #NoKings if this demolition had started in the days *before* the march. And how much more anger there would have been.

Apparently none of them believe in hate speech period.
"MAGA Melts Down at 'Moron' Bondi Over 'Hate Speech' Crackdown Threat"

Charlie Kirk (on X) 05/02/24 Hate speech does not exist legally in America. There's ugly speech. There's gross speech. There's evil speech. And ALL of it is protected by the First Amendment. Keep America free.

His grandiosity is increasing
MAKS 25: Trump: I don't like anything about this war [Ukraine]. I've settled 7 wars, and if you think about the wars before the war, add 3 more and it's 10.

Facebook post by Jim Wright aka @stonekettle.bsky.social
Jim Wright: The same white politicians and cops currently holding a democratically elected black woman prisoner inside the Texas State House because she opposed their push to illegally redistrict the state and disenfranchise everyone they disagree with, want you to believe they stand for freedom, liberty, and democracy.

So accurate!
(from www.meidasplus.com/p/today-in-p...)
...Michael Weiss, Editor of The Insider: "He wants the Nobel Peace Prize and the TV to say that he deserves it. And he want the angry half of his coalition to reconcile with him and admit they were wrong. Whether the nuclear program is gone or the war truly ends are beside the point. They're not part of the pageantry and spectacle. He will lash out at anyone who spoils the pageantry and spectacle. Thank you for your attention to this matter."

Smartnews can be useful. What I don't like about it is the amount of tracking and collection of data about you it does.

Front cover of NY Post, Late City Final, Feb 21, 2025 with U.S flag to the left of masthead and Ukranian flag to the right of it. Full page image of Putin from chest up overlayed with text reading: "President Trump: This is a Dictator And 10 other Ukraine war truths e ignore at our peril Douglas Murray | pages 4-5" In a small window, text reads: It's right for President Trump to want to stop the bloodshed in Ukraine, but there are certain truths we all must remember--namely that Vladimir Putin is solely responsible for this war. He is the one who started it, and the one who committed unspeakable horrors. Any peace that appeases Russia will not be looked on kindly by history, Post columnist Douglas Murray writes."

Recommend this FB group for the pithy writing.

"You want to talk about real shortages? Try empathy. Try basic human decency."
FB post by Fear and Loathing: On the Campaign Trail 2024 from 02/05/25. Text reads "Somewhere in Pennsylvania, a trailer full of eggs disappeared into the night, and with it, any last illusion that we still live in a functioning society. A hundred thousand eggs--just gone. Stolen like a back-alley organ transplant, whisked away to god know... See more". Image shows a very short, squat trump standing on the street with a sidewalk and brick wall behind him. There are three eggs--two broken-- on the street surface by his feet.

Screen capture of recent Truth Social post by the felon-in-chief stating that he called the mother of Ross Ulbricht to tell her he's signed a full and unconditional pardon of her son, Ross. He goes on to call the people who worked on Ulbricht's conviction scum and lunatics, and called Ulbricht's sentence ridiculous

Posted to Substack. It’s a *very* serious problem.
Substack post from Robert Reich: America now has 815 billionaires who currently hold a record $6.7 trillion in wealth. The bottom 50% of Americans control $3.7 trillion in wealth. When 815 people control more wealth that half a country’s population, we have a very serious problem.

Reaganomics... the promise of trickle down economics was actually a gush of wealth upwards
Screen capture from Henry M. Rosenberg on X says Health Insurance was not always "for profit." That started during Reagan, not surprisingly, when Blue Cross went from "not for profit" to "for profit." That's when insurance went from a means to process medical claims to a system to withhold care and let people die for profits. Posted Dec 6, 2024

Sunset from the shore of an island with another island on the horizon. The land is dark in color. The water in-between the land masses reflects the colors of the sky: peach, apricot, purple-ish grey, and pale aqua. There are horizontal bands of clouds in the sky.
