And I've been silent. Netflix should make a movie about this whole shit, how democrats said election was perfect knowing they stole.
I'll post more later..
I was right all along .
I've asked , where is proof Joe Biden got 81 m votes more than 14 milion St Jesus the criminal could muster
Foreign AffairsRe: American Politics Thread: Trump Is The 47th President! by basilico: 1:25pm On Aug 02, 2025
So since I'm still gloating. Tulsi Gabbard has said she has more info on 2020 elections.
Not bamboo. Budaatum. But FBI knew the Dominion voting machines had vulnerability. FBI hid this evidence going on to claim that Joe Biden got 81 million votes He didn't, I think maybe around 72m democrat dumbo stolen votes
They stole 2020. They should give Trump a 3rd term.

You realize you are one of the rich, what offence have rich madams like you committed to be taxed more than others? Is it a crime to be rich like you?
I would have said you can afford to pay more currently but I recognize the sacrifice you have done for me and other Americans

But if you feel led, you can pay more in taxes

Should be voluntary. If you want to pay more taxes no one preventing you.

Let me gloat a lil bit. I've been writing since 2016 saying Trump never colluded and the pesky Putin never helped him win in 2022.
I've been called a conspiracy theorist by a lot of you but I soldiered on .

So let's do a recap.
Hillary was facing email investigation regarding her server. She approves turning the spotlight by making it appear Trump was Putin puppet.
She with FBi, Fusion GPS, media , Mueller, Obama spin a narrative that she lost because of Putin.

That has been proven absolutely certainly false. She personally approved the fake claims. The FBI ran with it.

I want apologies.

President Donald J. Trump has filed a motion in federal court to compel the expedited deposition of 94-year-old media mogul Rupert Murdoch, accusing the Wall Street Journal and its parent company, News Corp., of publishing a “fake” and defamatory article that falsely connected Trump to disgraced financier Jeffrey Epstein.


According to the filing, Trump personally called Murdoch after his team was tipped off by WSJ reporter Joseph Palazzolo. During that call, Murdoch allegedly told Trump he would “take care of it.” Instead, the article was published anyway.


Joe Biden and Obama had the letter if it wasn't planted by the Gestapo.
Why they didn't release it.

$20B is doable if the purported letter is indeed produced and verified fake.
The publishers knew that Trump knew that they were about to publish it.

New York will soon require most new buildings to be fully electric, following a vote by the state Building Code Council, according to the Times Union. Beginning January 2026, gas and oil systems will be banned in newly constructed homes and low-rise buildings, with broader mandates kicking in by 2029.
After liberals war on hydrocarbon power generation,New York electricity bill have risen
...The 27.2 cents per kWh that New York households paid for electricity in December 2024 was 54.5 percent above the nationwide average cost of 17.6 cents per kWh. Last December, electricity costs in New York were 24.1 cents per kWh, 42.6 percent above the national average of 16.9 cents. Electricity prices in the New York area have been at least 40 percent above the national average over the previous five Decembers.

Climate change cult. No gas heating in new buildings in order to reduce emissions.
The goal of these people is to have more government control on what people can do. They will be bam Internal Combustion Engines in the near future .

AI data centres , Big tech cloud storage centres and Crypto mining rigs are power hungry. Expect no new investments thanks to a bunch of liberals who think electricity comes the wall sockets.

This I must see.
America gas is more expensive than Qatari. EU negotiates a discounted price , then Chevron Mobil etc get to deliver it
That's not rocket science.

I've collated some views wrt America
EU deal.
EU will buy $750B of gas to reduce Russia dependency. Last I checked EU is a 27 nation block. It doesn't buy anything,best it can do is negotiate on behalf of it's members. Countries within EU according to the agreement have the option of buying Qatari gas for example if it's cheaper. Definitely it is due to distance and abundance.

Catch. EU countries don't export too much to above example Qatar. They do intra trade and quite a number main export is to America.
They will buy LNG gas at a higher price from America. But thats the beauty of contractual futures and hedging.

Every negotiation of give and take is now 'folded' abi?

Unfortunately the version of your definition of "folded" only exists in MAGA's dictionary and I am not interested in having one. One will think the whole world are bowing at the feet of Trump with the way you have been crying "folded" since Trump came.

Erm erm, as a privileged member of Trump inner circle, please why is your party now fighting not to release Epstein files/list? not that I care about the files at the beginning because I have an idea who and who might be in the list, and I know the revelation of the content would not change you MAGA's opinion, I expect you guys to make a light case out of it, like 'groping by the genitals' being a locker-room talk, or blame only others and excuse your master. But your party campaigned vigorously to release it, now you are fighting vigorously to hide it... WHY?
Thailand and Cambodia agreed to a ceasefire after Trump warned them he would not make a trade deal with them.
Trump has effectively neutered the WTO ..If you sell products to America , you be on your own to make a trade deal.
Trade Deficit: The U.S. had a $45.6 billion trade deficit with Thailand, up 11.7% from 2023.

Trade Deficit: The U.S. had a $12.3 billion trade deficit with Cambodia, up 9.4% from 2023.


Both countries face a 35% tariff,they have a lot of Chinese products shipped through them to America.

His media friends and democrats are using Epstein to downplay his role in the treasonous plot of removing a duly elected president.

The Mar a Lago raid was most likely an effort to confiscate a missing bunder (prepared by Kash Patel) that blew the Russian spygatr hoax open.

In other news , The UN is relocating three major global agencies to Nairobi which already hosts global UNEP and UN-Habitat offices. The three agencies to relocate are UN Children's Fund (UNICEF), UN Population Fund (UNFPA) , UN Entity for Gender Equality and the Empowerment of Women (UN Women).
Part of this has to do with the rising costs of their current host countries which is New York State in this case. Plus the evil Trump views on USA funding of the globalist UN.
