He's a (Very Good) Friend Of Epstein (Oh, Yes He Is) - Trump Thread #149

[Spandauer]

Taking paracetamol doesn’t give you autistic babies but voting for Trump definitely gives you a festering carcass of American rot shoved into an ill-fitting suit: the sleaze of a conman, the cowardice of a draft dodger, the gluttony of a parasite, the racism of a Klansman, the sexism of a back-alley creep, the ignorance of a bar-stool drunk, and the greed of a hedge-fund ghoul— all spray-painted orange and paraded like a prize hog at a county fair.

Did you read the link?

Yes, I did. The comments in it about Charlie Kirk made no sense to me either. Is it "betraying Charlie Kirk" not to be a card-carrying the-right--sort-of-Christian? Did Charlie Kirk say not being the-right-sort-of-Christian was unacceptable, or something? I don't really see how Charlie Kirk being murdered fits into the "go away and worship your sand-demons somewhere else" narrative, you see.

NEW: Trump has announced that the US will admit the lowest level of refugees ever at 7,500 in FY 2026. The US will only be admitting as refugees White people from South Africa and "victims of illegal or unjust discrimination," which leaked memos suggest means far-right Europeans.

Trump's new refugee determination appears to call for admitting as refugees people who wouldn't normally meet the definition of refugee — someone who faces persecution (not "discrimination") on the basis of race, religion, nationality, membership in a particular social group, or political opinion.

FOX: Pritzker has asked you specifically to pause immigration enforcement operations in Chicago so kids can safety celebrate Halloween. Do you have any plans to alter activity tomorrow?

NOEM: No. We're gonna be out on the streets in full force and increase our activities to make sure kids are safe.

That will be half of MN applying, 'not racist just concerned'

Not sure what to say anymore.

The fact they're Hindu is an affront to evangelical Christians and a betrayal of the "Christian" values Charlie Kirk upheld.😒

Of course there's a lot of racism in the MAGA faithful, so they were always going to turn their hate on Indians, even the self proclaimed "good ones".🙄

It must be bad if Vance is talking about his wife converting to Christianity.

V for Vendetta springs to mind.

Yes - I suspect the "elders" have been having words with old JD if he wants to be #48.
"Get your little woman in line, Jim Boy, before we have to do it for you"

He could change his name to JD Lynch ?

Thanks. It still makes no sense to me at all, but I can at least now see how they get there.

"He was a white Christian, they are not white Christians, his having been murdered by a white Christian means they ought to be deported" is a very weird train of ... for lack of a better word, thought ... but at least I can see how it goes now.

@AskingQuestionsAllTheTime your mistake is looking for logic. There is no logic involved.

Wives come and go

Why is what ICE are doing not getting more news coverage in the UK

Fucking hell that's scary when the police aren't allowed to check on the children or legal reps also denied access.
These things are acting with impunity.

Thugs not things.

North Korea, Russia, the USA. Is this the start of a new race to test nuclear weapons? What next, biological weapons?

Unfortunately that's ICE. That's what they do and we're getting used to it as it becomes more and more normal.

On a side note, apparently ICE are also suffering in the Epstein shutdown with only those in "active zones" like Chicago, being paid atm.

More cheerful news from YouTube. JD Vance and the Widow Charlie Kirk becoming very close, clutchingly, clingingly full on snogging close. Both true Christians showing us unsaved the way, the truth and the light etc. Its definitely time thàt an annual Award for Hypocrite of the Year was established. The competition would be fierce. Chuck that sofa out, Usha. And him.

Just think. If JD chucks the non-Christian Usha in favour of the widow Kirk, they could become our first husband and wife president and vp.

Adding, re Usha, I have no respect or sympathy for the women who prop these men up.

Seriously? Do you have a link for that, please.

It's absolutely what I'd expect from that vacuous brown-noser with an eye for the main chance Vance, but I'm a bit surprised anyone else is entertaining such behaviour – either Erika Kirk or the TurningPoint management.

I think it would be very interesting to see what happens if that pair of shameless grifters partner up.
JD has already set the stage to get rid of Usha on the grounds of her unwillingness to be Christian. He thinks pairing up with Kirk's widow will endear himself to maga and he'll be the new cult leader with her as obedient sidekick.
Kirk's widow will be thinking that she'll be the leader and he'll be the useful idiot sidekick

OK I haven't found anything about snogging, but I have found an article about something Erika Kirk said in her and Vance's Turning Point appearance:
"I am starting to realize and witness that the enemy, he doesn’t want you.
Kirk added: “He wants your territory. He wants your influence.”

Which is precisely what I've long believed Charlie Kirk and Turning Point were aiming for.

Interesting to see the organisation admit they make this distinction – even though as always they frame their admission in the form of an accusation.

The hug was at that event, plenty of videos if you look for Vance Kirk hug

Ah, found one. Thanks.

OK, I don't see that as particularly sexual – no snogging, just an emotional hug.

However Vance looked pleased as punch after it.

Given he also recast his disastrous meeting with Zelensky in the Oval Office as "the most high profile thing he's done" (paraphrase from memory), I'd say his glee at the hug is completely consistent with everything we know about his veniality, lust for importance and enthusiasm for using other people as stepping stones.

He's such a lightweight little toady.

"Meet cute"

With Andrew Windsor now having incurred some of the consequences due from his Epstein-facilitated past, surely the time has arrived to focus very closely indeed on what Trump was up to?
