Desperately seeking that Peace Prize.
May have to settle for the Hero of the Russian Federation award. Bigly sad.

Dropping this here quickly as I have to go out.

eta that a friend needed a drug he had run out of, while in the USA. Drug cost $2.25 in his home country and $15.00 for each pill. The problem is inflated US pricing at home, because insurance usually pays.

Finally a realisation on how tariffs work might percolate the US Trump voters’ heads. It’s a massive shame so many average citizens are impacted by them though.

Trump complaining that domestic abuse arrests are bad for his no crime stats

https://bsky.app/profile/atrupar.com/post/3lydiss6kao2v

Trump claims crime is down to "virtually nothing" in DC & adds the crimes that are happening are "much lesser things. Things that take place in the home they call crime. You know, they'll do anything they can to find something. If a man has a little fight w/the wife they say 'this is a crime. See?'"

Why not ?

None of this was in anyway oversold when people warned what Trump #2.0 would look like.

Nice country you had there. Shame something happened to it.

How long before they will have to wear something identifiable on their clothing

🚨The Supreme Court today gives Trump a license to engage in racial profiling, with Justice Kavanaugh writing in concurrence to expressly endorse ICE and Border Patrol targeting any Latinos they observe in Los Angeles speaking Spanish and then demanding their papers.

Sotomayor's dissent strongly suggests that we've now reached the point where it is fair advice to tell any Latino citizen in Los Angeles to carry a passport or birth certificate (or picture of one on their phone) at all times with them now, in case they're stopped by DHS or their compatriots.

Hmm, @DuncinToffee, I fear that the colour of their skin is badge enough.

And does she think that will mean they don't get arrested? optimist.

I don't know why the previous post happened,)

Exclusive: Jeffrey Epstein’s estate has given Congress a copy of the 2003 birthday book, including the letter with Trump’s signature that he has said doesn’t exist.

The birthday book, Trump’s doodle inc has been released. https://www.cnbc.com/amp/2025/09/08/trump-epstein-birthday-book-oversight.html

One or 2 commentators on social media pointing out that that woman’s outline that Trump drew looks suspiciously young.

Just revolting 🤢🤮

BustingBaoBun · 08/09/2025 21:18

The words are horrible too. Yet he hardly knew the guy...yeah right

Igotjelly · 08/09/2025 21:24

I’ve seen rumours from some democratic commentators that enigma (as used in the letter) is an anagram for gamine (which apparently is a body shape akin to very young woman, slightly boyish) 🤮 🤮

Audrey Hepburn was often described as “gamine”.

It’s actually vile. The man is disgusting.

MsJinks · 08/09/2025 21:59

Looked on x-Twitter for this, but found instead nauseating stuff from Trump pushing prayer. I have no issues with prayer - I have an issue with Trump thinking he’s a Christian person - if there’s one thing to make you not believe!
My agnosticism is pending him being struck down by a plague of locusts or thunderbolts- I waited in vain for the Bible to spontaneously ignite in his hands last term, outside the church though.

That body shape could be used to describe Melania.

BustingBaoBun · 09/09/2025 06:57

I don't think Melania is in any way gamine or slightly boyish. She is tall with a model's figure.

Gamine is petite and boyish and as a PP said just like Audrey Hepburn

BustingBaoBun · 09/09/2025 06:59

Has the edit feature disappeared? I straightaway went back on my post and it wasn't there. I was going to add... Melania is almost statuesque (I'm not complimenting her by the way... she is a robotic waste of space!)

I would agree, to my mind Melania is far more adult and womanly than what I believe the inference is that Epstein and Trump were discussing 🤮

I see more details this morning are emerging of a transaction where Epstein ‘sold’ a “fully depreciated” woman to Trump for $22,500… I don’t know what that means but it certainly doesn’t sound innocent.
