Soo.. turns out the major betrayal they came up with is giving Alaska natural resources directly to Putin.
I wonder what Trump the pedophile is planning to do?
It's just another show for him.
Can't just "cut to commercials" on this one.
He wouldn't need a distraction from the Epstein files if he just released the Epstein files.
I'm thinking he is being pressured by people with international buying power whose names are also on the list maybe
Pedos gotta stick together. Eww.
He’s gonna start a war
Read this morning he wants to give Russia access to Alaska.
That’s psychotic. I want Alaska to re-join Canada - can be our 11th province.
A civil one, at this rate. He already hates the people in the country and there’s no one to go to war with since he became but-buddies with all the dictators and, despite everything, attacking Europe would probably trigger a civil war anyway.
He has repeatedly threatened Canada with violent annexation.
True, though because of the connection we(Canada) have with the citizens I can’t imagine that going over very well. They’d be better off attacking their own people because other countries probably wouldn’t feel the pull to interject and they’re kinda just shitty like that. If they did attack us they’d be dealing with issues on their own side of the border as much as dealing with us.
My money is attacking Mexico without a declaration of war. Brown people are down there, it justifies the ICE budget, and other bullshit.
Ok Donald. If you get Putin to leave Ukraine on Zelensky's terms, then maybe we can talk about something other than Epstein for 5 minutes. Maybe.
However, if you fuck over Ukraine, and then try to claim a victory for authoritarianism as a victory for peace (which you almost assuredly will) we double down on Epstein so fucking fast even JD Vance will start to regret betraying you to Rupert Murdoch before the midterms.
I said war! Huh! Good god y'all.
What is it good for? Doing this probably.
Everything is a distraction from the West giving up on liberty. It's not only the US.
tldr; new UK laws are extremly privacy invading requiering ID and face photos to acces any explicit material including sites like Wikipedia, similiar to some USA state laws and it looks like EU might just follow
These aren’t distractions, they’re just doing multiple awful things around the same time. Sometimes the timing is, sure, but these are all very real things that they’re doing. Calling it a “distraction” makes it sound likenthey wouldn’t have been so evil if they weren’t afraid but they love this shit.
If the Epstein stuff is what finally brings down Trump, it would be peak irony. Its a low bar, but at least some of these MAGA ding dongs draw a line at diddling children.
I honestly thought there was no line for MAGA at this point.
I mean, I don't think they do draw that line; 47% of Republicans would still vote for Trump even if Trump were implicated in Epstein's sex-trafficking activities – and those are just the ones who answered brazenly and honestly on the survey, to say nothing of those who say one thing in public and do another when nobody's looking.
Forty-seven percent of Republican respondents said such a revelation would not affect their vote, though based on other polling data this appears to reflect voter loyalty more than approval of the alleged actions.
Hate to tell ya MAGA, but voting for pedophiles is the same thing as approving of their actions.
It's like the people absolutely shocked when they find out the Trump administration's horrible policies negatively affect them. 😐 ➕ 🐆
there isn't, they want to legalize deportation to active warzones, ice also has a racial bias (obviously), plus they let some trust fund billionaire who wasn't even part of the American government make massive budget cuts that will have massive concequences.
and technically there is a law that says no president of the united states can be convicted of a crime (for declaring wars and other crap) the side affect being that a 36 times convicted felon (and non-convicted rapist) can run for office, win, and then have all charges dropped
He's going to float the idea of giving Alaska to Russia, distracting people from the Epstein fiasco.
In other words: drumpf is a RAPIST and a PEDOPHILE
tl;dr: Trump biographer Michael Wolff said : "[Trump] is going to sacrifice Ukraine for Epstein".
Trump's been trying to loot and scoot Ukraine since his first day in office. Far too late to pin this policy on Epstein.
that bullet should have gone through his head, not his ear, we were two inches away from a better world
It did. In one ear and out the other without hitting anything vital.
Legitimately surprised that he hasn't staged another "assassination attempt", it worked so well for him last time.
I think Trump cares more about the Epstein files than his supporters do. He is actually the one making a big deall out of it.
I just don't get why.
Probably because he's all over them. Fuck, maybe he's a business partner.
What does a big thing even mean to someone enacting the American Nazi agenda? Invade Poland?
"No one is above the law" and other jokes you can tell yourself to feel better.
Ha, when you've already pulled so many crazy stories that it's not working anymore. Nice.
Also Epstein did not kill himself.
Release the Epstein files.
ZZZIIIIIIPPPPPP
