I have absolutely no idea why I am posting this here in this thread, and it may be too meta for some people. But honestly! Just a random post Please ignore! ;P

I'm all for anything putting Donnie or his kids in jail but the arguments in that video seem pretty weak to me.

One of the best infographics ever, combining the size of Napoleon's army, the direction of movement, its location on a two dimensional surface, and the temperature on particular dates.

I would love to see a Minard graph for Trump.

Yeah, the people managing that channel have a strong tendency to use clickbait titles for their videos.

And in this particular case, they were also obviously excited because they got noticed by the Trumps and the judge.

But it's interesting to see the dynamic that is unfolding here, with the judge responding to their reporting and Junior attacking them over it.

Also, Trump is now probably paying someone to watch their videos, which is just funny.

Since one of his biographers noted his close relationship at a young age with a mafioso this is no surprise. I'm too lazy to find a reference though.

Donald Trump, Mob Boss—Then and Now (Mother Jones)

In 2007, Trump sued journalist Tim O’Brien for libel—asking for $5 billion in damages—after O’Brien in his book TrumpNation: The Art of Being the Donald reported that Trump was no billionaire and only worth between $100 million and $250 million. That book referenced an already established fact: that in the early 1980s Trump began his casino empire in Atlantic City, New Jersey, by leasing property owned by Kenneth Shapiro and Daniel Sullivan. Shapiro, O’Brien wrote, was a “street-level gangster with close ties to the Philadelphia mob,” and Sullivan was a “Mafia associate, FBI informant and labor negotiator.” (Trump also had obtained Sullivan’s assistance when he had trouble with undocumented Polish workers who were demolishing the Bonwit Teller building in Manhattan to make way for Trump Tower.)

Trump Plots to Pull Out of NATO -- If He Doesn't Get His Way

Donald Trump is discussing how the U.S. might pull out of NATO or put it on "standby" should he be reelected and it not meet his demands, per sources.

Just when you think you know how to define "creepy".

Trump Asked Melania To Don A Bikini For His Buddies, Insider Claims

Pratt, who ingratiated himself with the Trump world as a high-paying member of the Palm Beach, Florida, country club, remembers the president, 77, asking the then-First Lady, 53, to saunter around the pool in her swimsuit “so all the other guys could get a look at what they were missing.”

In the recordings, Pratt said the Slovenian model bit back by telling her husband, “I’ll do that when you walk around with me in your bikini.”

Two recent stories about classified information related to nuclear submarines:

A) Couple sentenced to two decades in prison each for trying to sell secret submarine data.

Maryland Nuclear Engineer and Wife Sentenced for Espionage-Related Offenses

A Maryland man and his wife were sentenced today for conspiracy to communicate Restricted Data related to the design of nuclear-powered warships.

B) Former US president gives nuclear submarine secrets to foreign national who joined his expensive club.

Trump allegedly discussed US nuclear subs with foreign national after leaving White House: Sources

Months after leaving office, former President Trump allegedly discussed potentially sensitive info about U.S. nuclear subs with an Australian billionaire, say sources.

abcnews.go.com

Of course, the two stories aren't exactly the same. In particular, the secrets that the couple was sentenced for trying to sell were related to nuclear *propulsion*.

The secrets from the former president concerned nuclear *weapons*.

Here is the link as I don't know how to properly embed a Mastodon post here.

This is particularly delicious since Orbán would find the confusion particularly insulting for much the same reasons Trump would be upset about someone thinking he was the former president of Mexico.

Pretty sure the leader of Turkey is Aragorn.
