A better answer would be, “I couldn’t tell, the prison van had no windows.”

Trump has two bigly balls Shaped like tacos, if they’re balls at all Sofa as we know, JD Vance has no Balls cos he sold them to Theil

Theil has only got one ball That’s Palantir and it’s rather small Witkoff’s got bit’n off And The Doge has just lost its Big Balls

Question for @justinwolfers.bsky.social: Piketty says in early 19thC, US developed economically faster than Europe because of abundant cheap land and slaves as capital with no wage cost. While not foc today, does cheap immigrant labour work in a similar way? Is this common to all rich nations now?

If Trump takes a golden share in TikTok, the possibilities are numerous. Require its algorithm to promote maga content; block DEI/lgtbq/Dem content; harvest user data; target voting blocks in elections. Basically all that China is suspected of. Plus monetise it for Trump Inc.

“ is Trump in fact a sheep in wolf's clothing? “ No, he’s a TACO in bronzer with a tie that’s too long. Also, the emperor has no clothes.

You’re not suggesting history might repeat, are you? Or at least have parallels. A Compton Massacre may be in the offing, if you will? No deportation without (legal) representation (habeas corpus)..

Meanwhile on ~Twitter~/X… —I still have the bluebird!

Emoluments Men, topical remake of the Monuments Men

I wonder how Trump is feeling walking the red/purple carpet outdoors in Riyadh wearing a suit in 40C heat right now.

What’s either black or white and read all over the world?

1/ These are people so invested in belief in Trump they cannot turn against him because no one can abase themselves enough to admit they were that wrong. So the question will be who they will blame instead of Trump no matter how much they hurt economically.

Many are saying the coming economic catastrophe will be it for Trump - look how his poll numbers are down. Yes but they bottom out in the 30s, which is the level of base support that got him his domination over the Republicans in the first place. /2

From a world wide perspective, it has to be noted that this is not just a domestic US issue. Even a sanctioned Russia, whose leader, Putin, supports Trump, benefits from US medical research.
