We’re witnessing the emergence of Trump’s mafia state in real time.

To break into the unusual circle of influence that surrounds Trump, chief executives are discussing whether to secure an appearance on Joe Rogan’s podcast. They are buying the Trump family’s cryptocurrency token and emailing tips about spending cuts to Vivek Ramaswamy www.wsj.com/politics/tru...

Like dogs peeing on trees

Wow where is Susan Sarandon when we really need her?

travisfaz.bsky.social•93 days ago

We have entered into a terrifying time for our Nation. The next four years may very well determine the future of Western civilization.

larrymark212.bsky.social•93 days ago

It's going to be a long four years and two months.

So glad to follow you here - follow back if you can (cant hurt to ask, right?)

What a disgrace our so-called president is. He refuses to sign all of the ethics agreement and selling his influence!

jjmjr.bsky.social•93 days ago

The Supreme Court screwed up badly when they gave him immunity from the law.

mumster57.bsky.social•93 days ago

Never should have total immunity. Look at his behavior now? Totally criminal behaviors!

jjmjr.bsky.social•92 days ago

He's not even trying to hide it anymore
For Sale: Presidential Favors!

mumster57.bsky.social•92 days ago

Only requirements are blind devotion and willingness to break the law, take all the blame, and have zero moral character. Contact Don Jr. Eric, Lara, Ivanka, Jared for further information. Melania is too busy ignoring everyone and pretending to care.

prayinfortheplanet.bsky.social•93 days ago

It's what they were paid to do.

prayinfortheplanet.bsky.social•93 days ago

I am having a hard time with Kamala's silence, and President Bidens.

Trump is not following transfer protocol never mind everything else.

How can you, In good conscience, hand over the office of the President, knowing full well Trump's destructive intent.

catobie.bsky.social•93 days ago

He’s got everyone talking about tariffs whilst he’s busy consolidating his power.

mcooper63.bsky.social•93 days ago

On full view for everyone to see.

floydsmom2.bsky.social•93 days ago

Are we at the part of the movie where the CIA, FBI, NATO, ARMY, NAVY, MARINES etc. join forces and destroy this Motherfvcker yet? I am getting so tired of seeing MY Country devoured by this evil orange stain. We need a happy ending STAT!

kdevasier.bsky.social•93 days ago

He’s going to wreck the economy. People will get disenchanted and elect a Democrat in 2028. But the recovery will be slow because Republicans will stymie all efforts, and voters will get frustrated and think about voting for a Republican again (maybe Don Jr?). And the cycle will continue.

rkhullar.bsky.social•92 days ago

You know John Mobsters do go down. In this case when your president of the United States it's kind of hard because of the technicalities set to protect a president. Remember autocracies do come down but you're not going to like how they come down

rkhullar.bsky.social•92 days ago

See the reason that Trump is successful at this is because we all still respect norms. Let me give you an example. The difference between say a country like India and us well let's go back to 1984

rkhullar.bsky.social•92 days ago

When Indira Gandi was assassinated by her own bodyguards who happened to be Sikh separatists that are still arguing for pro Khalistan Punjab state today what does that say

rkhullar.bsky.social•92 days ago

You never saw for example let's say a secret service agent was a Democrat who guarded Trump do something stupid like that even if it meant risking his life. Because you see we believed in the power of the presidency because we followed the norms versus countries like India that we've had to lecture

rkhullar.bsky.social•92 days ago

Over the years about how democracy should work. Trump took advantage of that. That's what makes us in a way weak because while we all or career people civil servants or whomever follow the norms this guy and his people do not and that's what really needs to concern us

disabilitydiva.bsky.social•93 days ago

😢😢😢

ceindeed.bsky.social•93 days ago

Once “The Don” has been removed, by old age or whatever, there is absolutely nobody to fill the cult of personality void. It’s indescribable how Trump, and Trump only, holds that facination.

acampbelliti.bsky.social•93 days ago

And I'm making note of all these spineless motherfuckers.

artweber.bsky.social•93 days ago

Trump views the Presidency as a magnificent GRIFT opportunity, and we can be sure he will take full advantage.

peaceofjessi.bsky.social•93 days ago

Surreal.

dtf1947.bsky.social•93 days ago

The kleptocracy already hard at work. By the time the folks who voted for trump and are most hurt by the looting of America wake up to smell the coffee, it will already be too late.

margaretgodman.bsky.social•93 days ago

The little folks who were hoping their egg prices would come down are going to be SOOOO disappointed.

genxrants.bsky.social•93 days ago

With no verifiable pushback from anyone in the current administration.

Why is it I feel like the rest of us got a different education than those people?

Didn’t they learn anything in school about bowing before a fascist?

squirrelhandler46.bsky.social•93 days ago

Right! I feel like I'm living in a Twilight Zone episode. Where evil is good, and good is evil.

suzannt.bsky.social•93 days ago

At least the real mafia had a good menu for all not just for those who will pay $300./plate for stouffers frozen. just to kiss his ass

teamx2024.bsky.social•93 days ago

Let the corruption begin! Sorry, but it's already begun.

squirrelhandler46.bsky.social•93 days ago

Sicking, we have a mobsters as president.

atheist-pizza.bsky.social•92 days ago

Fuck his fat orange ass.

meredith-keith.bsky.social•93 days ago

Wonder how businesses in Russia reacted when Putin first took over. Any similarities?

jjmjr.bsky.social•93 days ago

Pretty much a mirror. Putin was extremely popular with his base when he started. Trump uses a lot of the same language when he is talking to maga

alexanderr.nafofellas.com•93 days ago

I'm guessing Biden and Harris are just like "fuck it" as they remain muted.

todd-hensley.bsky.social•93 days ago

Especially Biden. “You wanted me out, I’m out. Gonna just sit back and watch now.”

joncryerlove.bsky.social•93 days ago

Have a wonderful day Jon. I hope you're ok. #LoveU Big kisses from France 🇨🇵😘💋❤️💗👍

azbloodstock.bsky.social•93 days ago

And no one not even our current POTUS who has extraordinary immunity will do anything to stop the destruction of this country!

maebughers.bsky.social•93 days ago

How do we stop this bullet train? It's terrifying. Is resisting enough? (I also fully expect to be arrested at some point over the next four years).

doctorplance.bsky.social•93 days ago

Cowards. All of them.
Fucking Cowards.

neonchinchilla.bsky.social•93 days ago

Cheap eggs are starting to seem like they aren't worth the price.

kristenc115.bsky.social•93 days ago

Obeying in advance. We are doomed. 🤦‍♀️🙄

jaywilliams.pro•93 days ago

and the media corps that bow to his every whim

embalmamama.bsky.social•93 days ago

That's just a new kind of stupid. Do people never learn? There's going to be a bus shortage as he throws them one by one under one.

mod1968.bsky.social•93 days ago

The Trump branded watches and guitars are part of buying access.

mod1968.bsky.social•93 days ago

America voted for kakistocracy

philip-mach.bsky.social•93 days ago

Corruption is perfectly orthodox as is influence buying. Using another form of currency is a minor detail.

blathin384.bsky.social•93 days ago

This is so sickening! There won’t be anyone looking out for the little guys anymore… it will be a full blown grift for the rich and they will somehow get richer and us little people are f$cked

thegregshea.bsky.social•93 days ago

Fools.

effymourning.bsky.social•93 days ago

It’s a little terrifying to watch this happen.
