Government-sponsored hack from none other than his old pal Kim Jong Un. He’s so out of his depth and so is his entire cabal of morons 🤪

Trump: "They're saying they are guaranteeing it or something. They are. But it was a hack. That's the problem. You know the old fashioned way where you used to sign a check -- people never see the money anymore. So I've always felt it was a little bit dangerous."

Everyone in SEO complained about AI search, and a lot of us were also wondering: “Hey, aren’t these idiots killing their own cash cow?” I guess common sense eludes tech bros.

Bolsonaro ignored a court order to relinquish his passport and is under criminal investigation for money laundering. I thought this administration was *against* letting criminals into the country. Oh, wait . . . not if they are corrupt, election-denying fascists like the man in the Oval Office.

Just leave already, loser!

Rightttt, blame Canada for your failures, are you on drugs? Just fuck off! U.S. Ambassador to Canada Pete Hoekstra told a closed-door meeting on Tuesday that Ottawa could be blamed if key races in next week’s midterm elections go against Trump’s Republican Party. www.ctvnews.ca/world/trumps...

Truth.

Nothing says you were lying about your devotion to your country quite like leaving it at the first opportunity you get.

this is partly how we end up with such credulous, fawning coverage of AI

Maybe the BBC should get someone who actually knows what he is talking about then.

Bad news for all of us - in a post-AI era, we're going to have more days like these where we try and unmuddle the PHP chaos. My latest for @theguardian.com www.theguardian.com/commentisfre...

They get so mad when you say this to them. 🤣🤣🤣

Elmo is a very angry boy about his documentary being released, "Elmo, the man is insane", Starring Elmo Musk. It's 4 hours of musk, which is truly vomit-inducing. Since he offered one of his 14 (or more) baby momma's a huge reduction in child support, clearly he's mad. apnews.com/article/elon...

Alex Gibney’s ‘Musk’ has already gotten under Elon Musk’s skin. It goes nationwide this week

Elon Musk has been vocal against Alex Gibney's documentary “Musk,” calling the filmmaker names like “idiot” and “horrible human.”

Now we are learning just how real the threat is. According to Chrystia Freeland’s new book Unreliable Boyfriend, Howard Lutnick threatened to send troops across the border by “sundown” to force Premier Doug Ford to bend the knee to Donald Trump. charlieangus.substack.com/p/they-threa...

They Threatened to Invade by Sundown

Lutnick and his crowd cannot abide a proud democratic nation on the border.

Trump ordered the Starshield to be cut from Ukraine setting them up for attack. Trump has assumed an enemy position against Ukraine. As Ukraine defends U.S. has military bases and naval all over Europe. Over 100,000 U.S. troops. $ Trillions in U.S. taxpayer assets. And 1.17 million U.S. citizens.

He did say he would be dictator on day 1. He did say he would ethnic cleanse but not in those exact words. He did say he hated POC. He did disrespect women. It's not a broken promise. It's what he said he would do. Why the surprise? HE SAID IT

Rep. Brendan Boyle@congressmanboyle.bsky.social · 4w ago

Trump has been in office for nearly two years, and all he has to show for it is broken promises. Americans are fed up with his disastrous policies, which have made basic necessities more expensive.

We’re asking the Supreme Court of Canada to hear our case and defend our Charter right to life and security of the person (s. 7). Stand in solidarity with protesters and exercise your Charter right to peaceful assembly (s. 2(c)). Oct 13. 5pm to late Tom Riley Park (Bloor & Islington)

If Kimberly Guilfoyle has been asked to resign, it isn't because Donald Trump deplores her corruption, it's because he resents subordinates skimming dollars off of their office—because that's *his* job.

New in PN: Trump wants a race war. Minnesotans won’t take the bait. "They genuinely don’t understand how whites could care for immigrant communities in their midst and they’re going to keep trying to drive a wedge. But Minnesotans will do what they do: take to the streets to protect our neighbors."

Trump wants a race war. Minnesotans won’t take the bait.

We love our Somali neighbors.
