Claude I need a perfect quote by Trump that show's his inability to understand basic concepts. Claude:

Trump supporter lost $32,000 on $TRUMP coin and blames Democrats. He made $1.4 billion pumping & dumping crypto on these rubes and they don’t even blame him.
Stop, Fox News! I *already* like the Democratic Socialists. You don't need to keep selling me on them.
Yesterday, for Mel Brooks' 100th birthday, 7,000 fans gathered in the main square of Bologna, Italy, to sing “Happy Birthday” to him. Mel himself replied with a video message, and then the crowd watched Young Frankenstein together. ❤️ #Filmsky 📽️
I know the list is endless but I genuinely think trashing the legitimate congressionally chartered org for celebrating the 250th to instead hijack our national assets and taxpayer funds for his personality cult grifter crap should, in and of itself, be fully sufficient to merit removal from office.
It’s like he didn’t believe the experts and jumped at a simple, “common sense” solution that was never going to work and now we have a disaster on our hands and now he’s casting g around trying to blame someone, anyone for his screwup. In Iran, I mean.
MeidasTouch@meidastouch.com · 2mo agoThis is getting incredibly pathetic. Trump now says he may have to drain the Reflecting Pool after his botched “renovations” quickly left it infested with algae. Instead of taking responsibility, he’s blaming vandalism—not his own shoddy work or the science experts warned about from the start.
If you’d told me on January 7th 2021 that everyone in this picture would be pardoned and be paid $1 million each for reparations, I’d have said you were insane. It turns out that it’s American voters that are insane.
the most anti free speech administration in this country’s history
Science Magazine@science.org · 3mo agoBreaking news: Indiana University plant microbiologist Roger Innes has been locked out of his laboratory by the school in response to a request by one of his federal funders. The move comes after Innes complained about the government’s prosecution of Chinese postdocs. https://scim.ag/4tsDqRr
Trump posts an image of himself as Jesus healing the sick and insults the Pope as being “weak on crime” and not being in favor of war, the Iranian president reacts. I’d say Iran is *crushing* the information war, but we are shooting ourselves in the foot and the Iranians just have to sit back.
Yashar Ali 🐘@yasharali.bsky.social · 4mo agoOf course… The President of the Islamic Republic of Iran posts a message to Pope Leo in response to President Trump’s attack on him and his posting of an image of himself as Jesus on Truth Social.
The difference between American and Hungarian pro Russian Christian nationalist parties is Hungarians can admit when they lose an election.

The Iranian government finding out they now get to tax the Strait of Hormuz and the United States will pay reparations for war damage. The art of the deal.
The art of the deal. Don’t forget thousands dead in Iran, dozens of US casualties, $200B, and exhausting our ammo stores. Plus vast reputational damage in the world.
Mehdi Hasan@mehdirhasan.bsky.social · 4mo agoJust wanted to remind folks, especially the GOP and the FDD, that Barack Obama’s 2015 nuclear deal didn’t give Iran control of the Strait of Hormuz or allow it to keep 60% enriched uranium. It sent $1.7 billion to Iran versus the tens of billions Iran will now make from tolls. 🤷🏽♂️
I think the most important question about the birthright citizenship case is whether Alito and Thomas will be the holdout loyalists to try to give Trump what he wants on this case.
It would have been a lot easier giving a speech claiming Iran wasn’t going to be a quagmire BEFORE he started the war and it became obvious it’s a quagmire.
Bitcoin vs gold correlation shows that bitcoin isn’t like Gold at all. Gold: safe haven people run to when scared or inflation is feared. Bitcoin: a speculative risk asset people run to when they feel safe. Now: dollar is falling, good for gold. bitcoin is crashing even faster than $.
The question every country has to be asking is, am I FAFO or TACO? FAFO countries better do what he wants or give him a prize or airplane ir buy a bullion in trump crypto. If you’re a TACO country (Trump always chickens out). Punch the bully, he will back off. Europe just proved they are TACO.
Peter Baker@peterbakernyt.bsky.social · 7mo agoTrump backs down and says he won't use force or impose tariffs to seize Greenland after days of crisis that ruptured relations between the United States and its European allies. www.nytimes.com/live/2026/01...
Since you didn’t give me the Nobel Peace Prize, I’m going to turn to war is so childish an argument that a toddler would be ashamed.

It’s with a heavy heart I share that Albert Penello, gaming luminary, has passed. He was a good and loyal friend and I will miss him. He was a husband and father to his 12 year old daughter. Recently I asked how he was doing. He replied: “Cancer: 0 stars, don’t recommend.” With a laugh.
One of the highest-level Jan 6 defendants is back behind bars A very efficient summary just filed to CBS News ===>
I know this is obvious. And I know we all know this. But if the President can raise taxes because an advert annoyed him, without even consulting Congress, then the US constitution is simply not functioning as intended.
Horrifying— Barbara Gomes Marques went with her US citizen husband and lawyer on 9/16 to a green card appointment at USCIS office in downtown LA where she was tricked into walking down a hallway away from them, was snatched by ICE and never came back. She now faces imminent deportation in Louisiana.
