How was that embarrassing on his end? Zelensky was being a massive sperg the entire time. Also a meme coin is… embarrassing… how?
A meme coin is embarrassing because he is a publicly elected official leveraging his political influence to massively inflate the value of a cryptocurrency he has 80% ownership of as a means to personally enrich himself. The value of the coin plummeted shortly after its launch. He gifted large shares of the coin to people within his own administration, including Kash Patel. If you don't understand how this negatively affects how people perceive him, then you are too blinded by your own support for him. I'm a conservative, and I am glad that he won instead of Kamala Harris. But I have absolutely no obligation to support this kind of behavior.
 
That was the "Condoms for Gaza" thing, where the Gaza in question turned out to be another Gaza. You are mixing events up.

Also, it should be noted that even then other parts of USAID were in fact funding Hamas.
The “condoms for Gaza” claim was never disproven:
It was always bullshit. The claim that it went to Mozambique was originally published by terrorist rag Middle East Eye, a media outlet of abysmal credibility that is associated with the Muslim Brotherhood (terrorist organization that created Hamas). It is also Qatari funded.

MEE with the big brain thinking attempted immediate damage control in resposne to Trump's claim that the US allocated $50m to Gaza:
“It's unclear whether this is what the Trump administration was referring to, given that there are multiple locations in the world named Gaza, including inside the US.”
Though I’m sure the $50m totally went to contraception as intended, and not to rockets right guys?

while you probably deserve to have a thread made about you, id prefer it not be this one.
 
Yes. If you're living off the government dime, there should be a requirement that you actually be in the country you're receiving gibs from.
I'm living off my dime, not the government's. I paid into the SS system for decades. Why should it be anyone's business that I'm spending my golden years banging hookers in Thailand?

I genuinely don’t give a shit about cryptocurrency so I’m not gonna really comment on this, other than no I don’t think this is a big deal.

FALSE! Stalker, child. He said that about accidentally cancelling USAID's ebola prevention efforts.

Very discouraging to see them claim that mistakes should get you instantly fired. Kind of discourages people from admitting fault and taking accountability, doesn't it?

I could swear he admitted to the vampires being FALSE as well. It was in some article that I read while half asleep.

A sad sign of the times. Im convinced theres no redemption for democrats at this point. We've crossed the Rubicon for that many moons ago.
They are cartoonishly evil. Forget the past decade or so; if you proposed a bill against puppy kicking, they’d universally vote to strike it down.
 
Can someone give me the rundown on the whole "Trump's siding with Putin" rhetoric?

Is it really only because he's looking to compromise and end the Ukraine war? And maybe for calling Zelinsky a dictator that one time? (Stupid but whatever) What other evidence is there?

Because to my knowledge, sanctions on Russia are still active. Trump's not making any sort of deals or agreements with them when he could stand to gain a whole lot from doing so.

If there's something more to it, I want to know. I want a real nonpartisan assessment of the situation. But there's been too much "Boy who cried Wolf" over Trump and Russia the past decade that it's hard to get a real feel of the situation.

Every day, whether it’s in theaters, movies, or even the gossip columns, people are bombarded with negativity and nonsense, and then they’re shocked by the lack of morals and the apathy of the general public. It’s as if these low-quality films and sensationalist news could somehow teach us about the true greatness of our country, ignoring the importance of proper early education for individuals.
Cool, running parts of Mein Kampf through an AI rewriter can you get you free likes. I bet if you did this for the entire book and released it, it'd be popular.

When he first released the info, he said they aren't marked as dead. That's accurate, and if Trump or Twittards said all those people are getting benefits, that's a false extrapolation (probably).
Trump said they were receiving Vampire Welfare in his address to congress, and has been repeating it for a while now. I wonder if Elon just doesn't want to tell Uncle Trump that his DOGE boys made a big oopsie.

However that data still needs cleaning up. It could be used for everything from identity theft to illegal immigrants lying to employer verification systems.
Or perhaps even... undead voting?
 
For my money, the strangest part of the night was watching the dems go sour grapes so hard thart they couldn't even be moved for the cancer kid.
I have very strong feelings on that point. Dems flaunt the idea of universal healthcare. They of anybody should know what that child and his family have gone through. The bills and the stress of it all. It does destroy families I've seen it. Utter silence for him. That if anything should have been a come together moment. Just repugnant
 
I don't see how having the word "loli" in my username makes me a pedophile. But hey, I can think clearly since I'm not a Trump fanboy. But hey, you guys call every political figure you don't like a pedophile. It's like when leftists try and call people Nazis.
searching for lolita clothing (jap fashion) on facebook marketplace pops a csam warning because lolita is flagged as pedophilia. loli is cp

The little sign thing is soooo dumb. They just look like a bunch of quirky rich people bidding on antiques at an auction house.

Auctioneer: and the antique lawn jockey statue is sold for a whopping 3 "save medicaids":

Everyone you hate wants to use Ukraine to their own end and Trump is screwing that up. Peace is not an option, total Russia death, the US must give Ukraine everything possible to this end, etc etc. US politicians have been involved in Ukraine for over a decade and are mad that their work is being undone and there's probably plenty more. It's just like how Trump was Putin's best friend while sending javelin missiles to Ukraine before the invasion, it's illogical.

Trump being a KGB asset since the mid-80s feels like one of those Big Lies. The kind that a certain Austrian painter liked to talk about. The kind that's too big for the normie mind to challenge because it's so outrageous and keeps getting repeated.
