MadTurkey

@MarkLynchSC South Carolina’s electorate now know how utterly ignorant mark lynch is about world history and what sovereignity means. the u.n. was formed 500 years after the hagia sophia became a mosque and couldnt really do anything about it

Under Lindsey Graham’s watch, the famous Christian cathedral Hagia Sophia, was turned over to the Muslims in the year 2020 on behalf of the United Nations. Instead of fighting against the handover of the Hagia Sophia to the Muslims, Lindsey Graham was silent. He didn’t even threaten the United Nations or use any of his political power against Turkey to stop the theft! Turning the Hagia Sophia into a mosque has been one of the greatest injustices in Christian history. The cathedral belongs to Christians and will be returned, under my watch, to the Christians under the ownership of the Greek Orthodox Church. The United States imported $17.52 billion worth of goods from Turkey in 2025. As soon as I become South Carolina’s new U.S. Senator, I will introduce legislation that will ban all imports from Turkey until the Hagia Sophia is returned to Christians. The bill I will introduce will be titled The Return the Hagia Sophia to the Church Act. I will invite all Christian clergy (Orthodox, Catholic, and Protestant) to the U.S. Capitol the day of the bill’s introduction to pressure Congress to pass the bill so that all imports from Turkey (over $17 billion annually) will be banned until ownership of the Hagia Sophia is given to the Greek Orthodox Church. When I am in the U.S. Senate I will fight to stop the takeover of Christian churches by Islam, especially in the United States.

@bissehness @MarkLynchSC 40 years before christopher colombus set foot somewhere in the bahamas for that matter

@MarkLynchSC Hagia Sophia was literally a mosque since longer than his USA exists - then it was designated as a museum and now it's a mosque again not even the American elites are properly educated 🙄

@hellspatisserie gentlemen's clubs, where "adults" go to holler at titties?

If Starbucks and Barnes & Noble are embassies of liberal America in conservative America, what are some embassies of conservative America in liberal America

@RepNancyMace a third fake assassination attempt? fck trump.

Please get on your knees and pray for President Trump and for our country right now.

@Aleister4u @darren_stallcup The issue is the tribalism is close to a civil war. Very brave of you to announce your work place in a city 70% democrat, when you don't respect your customers.

I wipe my ass with the California “patriots” who gave up on the Golden State the second the taxes got too high and ran to Texas. You traded the redwoods, Yosemite, and Lake Tahoe, the most beautiful land on Earth, for a slightly bigger paycheck and lower property taxes. Yeah some of us actually stayed and fought for what really matters. To anybody still out here in the Wild West and not being a little coward bitch hiding in Texas, I’ve got your back 💪

@BTCBreadMan tell your children you'll be looking for foster parents living in the same school district.

Wife and I found an amazing house today on 2 acres of land in a very nice neighborhood. Significant upgrade from our current home/yard/hood. The kiddos want to veto it because they would have to switch elementary schools. They are in 2nd grade and kindergarten. Dad advice?

@Sandalbar @EricaRN4USA @urie_ryan @BarackObama the proof of citizenship is built into your social security number. so unknowingly registering non-citizens can only happen if the ssn was issued in error. what’s more important for voters is actually where you live for local and state elections. you need your residency for that

You speak sane and people here call you crazy. We have been registering folks to vote for over a century in this country requiring proof of residency and handing them their voter registration. With that voter registration card they go vote along with all the hysterics of the other party checking every voter’s underwear for Catholics who might have walked in from Mexico who would ordinarily not be within a hundred miles of a voting booth if they were not born here.

Is this not ironic—to visit the museum of .@BarackObama, one has to pay $30! It costs children ages 3-11 $23 Lucky people in Illinois some days get a discount and get in for $26 I swear I am not making this up—but they are REQUIRED TO SHOW ID, and be scanned before entering! I thought democrats didn’t like showing their identifications 🙄 I think after everything Obama has done to “fundamentally change” America isn’t worth paying $30 to see. Would you pay 🤔

@EricaRN4USA @urie_ryan @BarackObama all states require IDs, documentation on your residence, and proof of citizenship to register to vote. ID requirements to vote at a polling location is not the same. what matters is the registration process takes care of every issue. without registration, you can’t vote ID or not

@urie_ryan @BarackObama There are 14 states that don’t require ID

@EYakoby so an israeli company building desalination plants gives the israeli government the right to commit genocide?

An Israeli company will build a desalination plant in Texas to provide clean and cheap water to Texas residents. It uses leading Israeli technology to convert sea water to drinkable water.

@DougWahl1 Maternity leave? They have maternity leave benefits at the White House???

@mjfree sensory deprivation shroud, as in the “foundation” series. youtu.be/s2n7o9RwumM?si…

How would you like to see Trump executed after being convicted of war crimes?

@iky_fwjett in case of death, the situation gets more complicated. second cousin lost his wife, didnt feel going back home for a few days after the funeral. when he returned, the furniture and electronics were gone.

My parents are giving us $150k for a house and my husband wants to turn it down because they asked for a postnup My husband and I have been married for 4 years. We're buying a house in the Bay Area and my parents offered $150k for the down payment. My mom said they want some kind of legal documentation to make sure the money stays with me if something happens. My husband got really quiet when she mentioned it. I've been reading Strangers by Belle Burden about a woman whose husband of 20 years just left her out of nowhere. She thought she knew him completely and then he became someone she didn't recognize. It made me think about how you can be with someone for years and still not really know what they'd do if things changed. My parents saw my aunt go through something similar. My husband thinks asking for a postnup is insulting and means they don't trust him. He said if they can't give it without strings then we should decline it and save up ourselves. My sister says do what my parents ask since it's their money. My brother says it'll cause problems in my marriage if I side with my parents. I don't know who's right here :( am I being naive or is he being too sensitive??

@VictorPearl6 @InformedMama209 Republicans are terrified of our bulldogs in heels. They suffer from the same problems as Trump.

@InformedMama209 I was very impressed with Katie Porter. She was polished, savvy, smart and fearless. The rest of the field was lacking, Steyer was inarticulate, Becerra had no new ideas, Mahan looked like a kid. Hilton and Bianco sounded like they should be locked in a padded cell.

Which candidate for California Governor are you supporting and why ?

@LucasSa56947288 All our lives would be so much easier. Many people would in fact be alive also.

Lara Trump: “I wish people would appreciate how much easier Donald Trump’s life would’ve been if he'd never gotten involved in politics. He's the one President to leave the White House with less money than he went into it with”

@alphafox hosted a group of europeans at a restaurant. bills separated dutch style. knowing they don't tip, we covered their part of the tip too. then, one of the stewardesses ran out chasing them to tip. she didn't accept that the 100% tip we gave was to cover them too.

Do you tip 25% or go to the next restaurant?

@JesusChryslerII which one was beavis, which one butthead?

Wow-check out what the dumb one posted

I have three monitors on my desk. The left one shows the order book. The middle one shows Truth Social. The right one shows the investigation queue. On April 21st, the left screen moved first. I am a Senior Surveillance Analyst at a commodities exchange. I have held this position for nineteen years. My job is to monitor trading activity for suspicious patterns and generate compliance reports. I am employee of the quarter. I have a mug. At 19:54 GMT on April 21st, someone placed 4,260 sell orders on Brent crude futures. They did this during post-settlement. The window after the market closes when daily volume is typically in the dozens. Sometimes single digits. Sometimes I watch the screen and nothing happens for forty minutes and I think about whether my daughter is happy. On April 21st, someone placed $430 million in directional bets in 120 seconds during that window. One hundred and twenty seconds. I timed it on my watch because the system clock rounds to the nearest minute and I have found, in nineteen years, that precision matters to no one but me. At 20:10 GMT, the President posted on Truth Social that he was extending the Iran ceasefire. Brent dropped from $100.91 to $96.83. I flagged the trade. I flag a lot of trades. I want to tell you what happens to my flags. My flags go into a system called TRACE. Trade Review and Compliance Evaluation. I did not name it. The system generates a report. The report goes to a committee. The committee has a name I am not allowed to share but I can tell you it meets quarterly and the conference room has a credenza with bottled water that is sparkling because someone once put still water in the room and a managing director sent an email about it that was longer than most of my surveillance reports. The committee reviews my flags. The committee has reviewed all of my flags. Here is the complete record of actions taken on my flags in 2026: Reviewed. That's it. "Reviewed" is a status. In compliance, a status is the absence of an action that has been given a name so it looks like one. Let me show you my flags. March 9th. Someone bet millions on oil falling at 18:29 GMT. Forty-seven minutes later, a CBS reporter posted that the President said the Iran war was "very complete, pretty much." Oil dropped 25%. Forty-seven minutes. I flagged it. March 23rd. Someone sold 5,100 lots of Brent and WTI crude futures between 10:49 and 10:50 GMT. Fourteen minutes later, the President posted on Truth Social about a "COMPLETE AND TOTAL RESOLUTION" to hostilities. Oil dropped 11%. Over 13,000 contracts traded in sixty seconds after the post. Fourteen minutes. I flagged it. April 7th. Someone established a $950 million short position in oil futures at 19:45 GMT. Three hours later, the President declared a two-week ceasefire. Nine hundred and fifty million dollars. I flagged it. April 17th. Someone placed $760 million in bearish bets twenty minutes before Iran's foreign minister confirmed the Strait of Hormuz would reopen. Seven hundred and sixty million. I flagged it. April 21st. The $430 million. Fifteen minutes. I flagged it. That is $2.1 billion in directional oil bets in April alone. Every one of them landed on the correct side of a presidential announcement. Every one of them was placed in a window so narrow you could measure it in bathroom breaks. I flagged every single one. The CFTC chair told a Congressional committee that his organization has "zero tolerance" for fraud and insider trading. I wrote that quote on a Post-it note and stuck it to my right monitor. The one that shows the investigation queue. The investigation queue has not moved since March. Zero tolerance. Zero staff. Zero budget. Zero prosecutions under the STOCK Act since it was signed in 2012. Fourteen years. The law has existed for fourteen years and has been enforced zero times. In compliance, we call that a compliance rate of one hundred percent. No cases filed means no cases lost. You cannot fail an audit you never conduct. We call that excellence. Last month the White House sent an internal email to staff. I was not on the distribution list but I have read reporting on it and I need you to sit with what I am about to say. The email instructed White House staff not to use insider information to place bets on prediction markets. The White House had to send a memo telling its own employees not to insider-trade. I want you to read that sentence again. Not because the instruction was unclear. Because the instruction was necessary. Because someone in the building looked at the same pattern I have been flagging for months on my three monitors and decided the appropriate response was an email. The President's son sits on the advisory board of Kalshi. He is an investor in Polymarket. Both are prediction markets. Both saw accounts created days before U.S. military action. One account. I cannot stop thinking about this account. It was called "Burdensome-Mix." It was created in December. On January 2nd, it placed $32,500 on Venezuela's president being removed from power. On January 3rd, Maduro was seized by U.S. special forces. Burdensome-Mix collected $436,000. Then it changed its username. Then it disappeared. One account is a coincidence. But there were six. Six accounts were created on Polymarket in February. All bet on U.S. strikes on Iran by the 28th. When the President confirmed the strikes, the six accounts collected $1.2 million between them. Five of the six never placed another bet. The sixth went on to correctly predict the ceasefire date and made another $163,000. My surveillance system logged all of this. My system logs everything. My system does not have opinions and neither do I. I generate reports. The reports go to committees. The committees meet quarterly. Between meetings, the windows get shorter and the bets get larger. March 9th: 47 minutes. March 23rd: 14 minutes. April 17th: 20 minutes. April 21st: 15 minutes. The window is compressing. In March, you had time to make coffee between the trade and the announcement. By April, you had time to send a text. By summer, at this rate, the trade and the announcement will be the same event. The spokesman said any implication that administration officials are engaged in insider trading is "baseless and irresponsible reporting." Then the White House sent the email again. I have been in compliance for nineteen years. I have seen insider trading run out of strip mall offices by men who could not spell "derivative." I have seen pump-and-dump schemes coordinated over WhatsApp by people who used their real names. I have seen a man try to manipulate soybean futures from a Panera Bread. I have never seen $2.1 billion in perfectly timed trades across five presidential announcements in a single month go uninvestigated. But I have also never seen a compliance system work this beautifully. Every trade flagged. Every report filed. Every committee briefed. Every quarterly meeting attended. Bottled water: sparkling. Minutes: distributed. Zero prosecutions. As long as the flags go up and the cases don't, my performance review says I am meeting expectations. I am meeting expectations. The system is meeting expectations. The $2.1 billion is meeting expectations. The fourteen-year-old law with zero prosecutions is meeting expectations. The left screen moves. The middle screen moves. The right screen stays perfectly, immaculately still. In my field, we call this price discovery.

@yirmiucderece Hüseyin Avni Coş emireri bir bürokrattı. O okulun yapılmasında herhangibir emeği, kendi parasından harcaması yoktu. Ama ismi verilmiş. Niye? Çocuklara yalakalık aşılamayalım

Ülkenin çocukları bile derbeder! Adana’da 23 Nisan Ulusal Egemenlik ve Çocuk Bayramı kapsamında bir okulda düzenlenen programda dikkat çeken anlar yaşandı. Etkinlikte sahne alan bir çocuğun hali, izleyenleri düşündürdü.

@MichelleMaxwell Salt Lake City has elected democrat mayors since 1995. Except for 1999, the election was between TWO democrat mayor candidates - yet none of Utah's four representatives in the US congress are democrats.

All of these transpired before Texas but Democrats have conveniently overlooked that! They are so full of crap!!
