Hear me out: Socialism with American characteristics.
Trump is the unholy union of shady billionaires with aristocracy wet dreams and the voiceless majority who hate liberals that control the culture

We need someone documenting “beverage diplomacy”
I didn’t expect Xi Jinping to dislike Korean makgeolli this much lol. He’s making such a “Wha—what is this?!” kind of face. (Makgeolli = traditional Korean rice wine)

Epstein role seems to have been to make himself useful as a cross border go between for security and intelligence agencies to get backdoor deals done that would have flown in the face of political alliances

He is not a random madman. He is the Minister of National Security of a UN member-state. And yet the West continues to insist that said state is democratic and an ally. Which, of course, reflects the West's collapsing basic ethical standards.
Bound and tortured Palestinian hostages Israel's National Security Minister Ben Gvir: “Do you see them? This is how they are now, but one thing remains to be done and that is to execute them” This is what the US, UK and Europe support:

More bizarre numbers for Breakthrough News on @Youtube. 900-ish views in over 2 hours on a channel that has over 1 million subscribers. A small fraction of what this would have gotten a few months ago. It’s a popular topic, well produced, great content on the looming war against Venezuela. It would be one thing if our channel sucked. Call me biased, but we produce high quality engaging content. And many of our followers are saying they’re not seeing our stuff. This is suspicious to say the least. See the video for yourself
With Trump poised to bomb Venezuela, @GranadosCeja says that the US is “playing with fire.” “This will not be easy – they will not be welcomed as liberators as they try to tell us the same lies they told with the invasion of Iraq many years ago” WATCH: piped.video/Og5DUzdwYEU

Christoph Waltz explaining Hegelian dialectics in a food YouTube show (in the context of ceviche) was not in my expectations today, but I’m all in for it
Who called it White House press room and not MAGAzine

Milei is a one trick pony - reup foreign reserves using his access to Washington. But when those loans are repaid even more pain will be administered. What is needed, which IMF does not permit, is an iron clad currency restriction to defend the purchasing power of working class.
Hit this, ⌘+A, ⌘+C - then paste into your LLM - much quicker than drag-selecting an article.
We didn't need the political project of a single currency. We needed a practical, consumer-friendly Euro: a clearing house and technically sound payments solution to break the Visa/Mastercard duopoly, operating across a basket of Europe's own currencies.

My interview with @ChrisLynnHedges is now available. We discussed the Thielverse’s rise and the construction of the bipartisan modern surveillance state that Trump and his benefactors are deploying against dissidents and immigrants today. Link below.

Luckily since the Louvre made NFTs of their jewelry, even though the crowns physically were stolen, they still own the same assets. Because the tokens still exist and are in limited supply just as before. Nothing has changed. few understand blockchain technology.
I'm happy for the Louvre robbers. They inspire me.
How would the media portray China if they had done the same to EU companies on Chinese soil? There would have been an outcry about the totalitarian dictatorship skirting the rule of law, juxtaposed to the unblemished liberal democracies who reign morally supreme.
🇨🇳🇳🇱 China Responds to Dutch Wartime Act Seizure of Nexperia After the Netherlands invoked the Goods Availability Act — a Cold War–era wartime law — to seize control of Nexperia, Beijing has issued a formal response. Under the Dutch order, Nexperia’s Chinese chairman Zhang Xuezheng was dismissed by court decision, and a Dutch-appointed “non-Chinese” CEO was installed with full control over the company’s European operations. In response, Nexperia China circulated an internal letter instructing staff to ignore all orders from the Dutch headquarters and follow only directives from the Beijing office. The letter noted that salaries are paid by the Chinese company, and any external instructions “may be rejected without violating discipline.” The company reaffirmed that it is an independent Chinese legal entity, now operating entirely under local management in Dongguan, Shanghai, Beijing, Shenzhen, and Wuxi. The Goods Availability Act gives the Dutch government the power to suspend directors, override management, and install trustees under vague claims of “national security.” Applying it against a Chinese-owned tech firm is unprecedented in Europe.
