speaking of which...their crypto(lmfao)


When Trump fans snapped up $550 million worth of WLFI, the token tied to the Trump family’s World Liberty Financial crypto project, they thought they were getting the deal of the century.

Tokens bought for between $0.015 and $0.05 between October 2024 and January 2025 soared to an all-time high of $0.33 when they started trading last September, turning modest purchases into small fortunes overnight — at least on paper.

But there was just one catch.
World Liberty Financial’s creators, which include US President Donald Trump and his sons Eric, Donald Jr., and Barron, granted themselves the sole power to decide who can sell and when, if ever.


The project has so far released 20% of the tokens and has promised a vote among holders in about two weeks on when the rest will be made available for trading.

But months have passed, and that vote hasn’t materialised.

Now, dozens of token holders are taking to the World Liberty Financial forum, begging President Trump to let them cash out as they watch WLFI’s value evaporate.
The token has fallen some 54% over the past five months.

“Nearly 80% of WLFI presale tokens are still locked after almost two years,” said one WLFI holder. “We held through volatility and silence because we believed. Trump. But at what point does patience and trust in Trump turn into neglect?”

“They are my investments and I want to have access to them,” said another. “We have become hostages. Please Mr. President, let us sell what we bought from you before we lose everything.”

The pleas have so far been ignored.

The fuck keeps doing the unimaginable. No sane society would tolerate the level of BS this arrangement is.

But Clinton killed people to cover up the drug smuggling flights while he was governor and Biden crime family! Checkmate libs! We have the biggest criminals but it’s ok because Dems do it to. Literally pcgeek11 and greenman posts.

Is impossible in the current situation, but let's see if Trump get's fuk-d in his attempt to do so.

You're confusing attempts to change how it is interpreted with changing the text. Not the same thing. Also just because he spouts off in an EO doesn't mean any meaningful action is actually taken. Don't give his spam anymore weight than it actually has. If you can't understand the difference maybe you should spout off less?

Are you fucking kidding me

of course you like it. You voted for him three times, each time knowing he was begging Putin for reach-arounds. No conscious American, much less veteran, would ever support that shitgibbon after the Helsinki conference in 2018. A fucking embarrassment. I would say he shit all over your service that day, but I think you already did that yourself when you voted for him the first time.

also the pedophile thing. You still seem to really like pedophiles. I understand that much less.

When I called these guys pieces of shit years ago, and that I'd rather sit next to a pile of dog shit at a bar then have to sit next to PC geek, it's because they're literal pieces of shit humans. They have no decency, their souls are rotting to the core and it's been obvious for a while. Irredeemable. I wish nothing but the worst for them in life. The fucking worst.

Is it bad for Republicans when they lose a solid red state senate seat which includes a town literally called "White Settlement" (not named after someone named White; and in the mid 2000s voted down renaming to "Western Settlement")?
I'll happily continue taking these small Ws, and hope that fair-minded Americans are building up to bigger wins in the future. Personally, I'm not as sanguine as some people are in the future of U.S. politics but we'll see.

The real question is whether Texas' U.S. Senate seat is actually in play. Polymarket suggests that it is. (Likewise, Ohio where I believe Sherrod Brown aims for a comeback.)

They've been quite effective at ignoring it so far.
They've been selectively trying to ignore the written word in the Constitution or using "creative" (often as bad faith) arguments, but they keep stepping on rakes and losing court cases, and they are largely abiding by those decisions. It's good to behave and and act like they should still be bound by the law, lest we make it easier for them to just ignore it altogether. Think of it as a form of "make me" - don't just hand them power.

Everything he touches turns to shit. What's wrong? Kid Rock not available for a 200-show residence to fill the cancelled slots?

Just think of the millions we’ll have to spend later to remove the gold leaf he will apply to everything.

And likely on the reopening it will be named Trump Center. MAGA art and propaganda for the ages....

In a facist country all culture must support the State.

Ha ha ha .
6% on Rotten Tomatoes.

IMDB has a rating which surprises me since it is an Amazon company. And bezos was involved.
The syphilitic orange menace will call bezos and tell him to pull the fake ratings.

22,000+ ratings of 1.3
All the 79 who posted reviews were mainly 1/10
with a few 2/10.

After 55 years, Washington National Opera is leaving the Kennedy Center. Everything he touches dies.

Trump announced the closing of the Kennedy Center for 2 years 'for renovations'. After seeing the backlash to his renaming it Trump-Kennedy Center and with mass resignations and artist cancellations, to avoid humiliation, he comes up with an excuse that it needs renovations.

The fat bastard is a lying sack of shit.
He doesn't want to be humiliated. But he will let
his wife be humiliated for that trash, quasi-documentary.

Usually the RT audience score and IMDB scores are very similar.

MAGA Muppets/bots managed to get the audience score up to 99% on RT. Shows how easy it is to fake the audience score on RT.

I was curious to see what would happen on IMDB, because accounts are long term, and it's the polar opposite.

If Ken Paxton is the nominee in this environment? Yes. I think it is. Beto made it within two and a half points in 2018.
