And an AI-generated image of Trump as Jesus Christ, both of which Trump later took down.  Harp, who is in her mid-30s, brings the president stacks of printed-out drafts of social media posts—many of them recycling content from other accounts—for Trump to approve, sources told the Journal.

Melania's getting a little long in the tooth, so the Pussy-Grabber-in-Chief has found a new chippy to keep him company during his late night social media posting orgasms. lol.  She definitely fits his type preferences.  No Monica Lewinsky here, she's top shelf Escort Service material.  No doubt highly qualified with years of experience working under Epstein in his Junior High Internship program. 😆

Changing modes of capitalism have ended up as that skewed form of imperialism that now propels war with Iran. The message of Marxist analyst Samir Amin resonates: "[C]apitalism is incapable of overcoming its fundamental contradictions." (2) That would be so, especially if working people, the great mass of humanity, rise up, mobilize, and say, No!

This will be no surprise to Diners familiar with Marxist analysis and the ongoing crisis in Capitalist economics, but the Iran war has little to do with the Iranian Nuke Program and much more to do with the waning power of the FSoA Dollar as the only financial debt instrument available for the Oil Trade on the Nation-State level.

The rise of the Chinese Renminby as the debt instrument of choice for evading economic sanctions and the advent of the BRICS clearing system for trades enables Oil trade completely independent of SWIFT & the Petrodollar, so the loss of this financial control system has driven FSoA Imperialists to attempt the physical control over the choke points of the global ocean based transportation of the oil.  This motivated the action against Venezuela directly before the Iran war, and also the threats to Cuba, Greenland and Canada to their sovereignty.

Will the escalating crisis lead to a workers revolt and the collapse of the Dollar as World Reserve Currency?  Will that lead inexorably to WWIII and direct conflict between thee FSoA and the PRoC?  It's looking more likely all the time, and this week's meeting between His Royal Chumpness and Xi may provide some clues.

The silence surrounding these crimes once again underlines the extent to which Israel's actions are whitewashed - and the extent to which Palestinian suffering is treated as though it simply does not matter.

Unfortunately, Nitwityahoo will remain Acting PM until they can form a new Goobermint.  Also, whoever new is picked will probably be a Right Wingnut, since the Conservative Party has a plurality of MPs.  Only the Lefties in the Liberal party are anti war there.

An arrest warrant from the Hague.  That makes me think of springtime freshness.

Magically delightful.

Not according to David Ickes. And of course viruses can mutate. Good thing this one isn't smart enough to have done that yet! But in the doomer realm....we can always HOPE!

Why it matters: The coming days carry stakes measured in decades: war and peace in the Middle East, the trajectory of the U.S.-China relationship, and the rules governing the AI revolution.  State of play: Trump's China summit was once seen as a de facto deadline for stabilizing the Iran war. But with Air Force One set to land in Beijing on Wednesday evening, the conflict remains unresolved.

His Legacy is already sealed...as the single most destructive national leader in ALL of Recorded History, going back to Biblical Times.

Critics in both parties fear Trump's appetite for grand bargains and personal diplomacy could undermine U.S. support for Taiwan, which Xi is determined to bring under Beijing's control as soon as 2027.

Xi is going to eat Trump alive.

Quote from: TDoS on May 11, 2026, 03:34 PMYeah, I'll play... and David Ickes' alien overlords disguised as humans could be involved. Atlanteans among us perhaps? I got a guy on reddit going on about Tibetan monks who are sitting outside in -45F weather for 8 hours because their meditation protects them.

Could be...maybe..may have.....I completely agree.....but aren't all the ones I mentioned COOLER!
