🚨 NEVER FORGET: History's other diabolically persuasive shameless liar also used a massive slush fund to financially reward his loyalists for "just following orders". A man JD Vance once compared Trump to. Before Trump rewarded JD Vance for falling in lockstep with him.

June 1, 1933: The "Fund of German Trade and Industry" is created, a huge slush fund administered by Martin Bormann in the Führer's name. The regime used the funds to compensate SA Stormtroopers who committed street violence, subsize the SS, and enrich Nazi party officials.

Warehouse in Surprise Arizona valued at 12 million sold to HS for 70 million. Another in Social Circle, Georgia valued at 30 million and sold to HS for 130 million. One in Roxbury New Jersey valued at 54 million and sold for 129 million. Tremont PA worth 60 million and sold for 120 million dollars. Salt Lake City 90 million sold for 145 million. I’d like to see where the money went and how much people in the Trump administration got paid in kickbacks. On just 5 warehouses our government overpaid by 348 million dollars. Kristi Noem should be in prison and we should stop sending taxes to the federal government. They can no longer be trusted with our money.

It used to be said that what was good for General Motors was good for America, and that the business of America was business. But when the business is personal, by & for Trump, his family, and close allies, it looks more like oligarchy, all too familiar to Russians. My latest:
Renew Democracy Initiative@Renew_Democracy

“Trump’s policies continue to shrink Americans’ wallets while flooding his personal coffers.” RDI’s @Kasparov63 writes on Trump’s recent visit to China, businessmen in tow. Read the full piece: thenextmove.org/p/is-whats-goo…

Trump on Elon Musk: “he knows those computers better than anybody. All those computers, those vote-counting computers,” then immediately adding, “we ended up winning Pennsylvania like in a landslide.”
TMZ@TMZ

Elon Musk's ex, Ashley St. Clair, says the X owner alluded to using advanced technology in the 2024 election ... along with gaining sensitive information about voting. 😳 bit.ly/4dAfaGV Credit: TikTok/ashstc

People saying he won’t also need to explain how to stop it, because he won’t stop on his own. Simply hoping it’s not possible ignores what’s been happening in Congress and the Supreme Court for the last year. This year’s midterms must be an overwhelming repudiation.

Trump: I'm gonna be in office in 2028. Maybe I'll be here in 2032, too. I don't know. Maybe I will

CBS, CNN, Fox News, Politico and Business Insider are all controlled by Trump's billionaire allies. The reason they aren't reporting on Trump's corruption is because they see more value in protecting Trump than reporting news.

Reading this thread makes me think that there are a lot of people who can't look at where things were and where things are, and then figure out *where things are going to be*. Things were bad, they are worse, and they're going to be horrific.
Seth Abramson@SethAbramson

This is only the beginning. He has no plans to leave office or allow free elections. Nor are his plans hidden—they're all unfolding in plain sight. The Insurrection never ended and the Christofascists won't stop until our democracy is gone. Choose who you'll be in this moment.

I wrote this about Vance five years ago. "Instead of a truth-teller in his own community, Vance as a candidate has become a contemptible and cringe-inducing clown. His attempts at authenticity are so grating because they are so blatantly artificial." theatlantic.com/ideas/archive/…

@WhiteHouse Nice try. Indicting Raúl Castro 28 years later is a pathetic distraction from the Epstein client list. Release the files! 🔥
