@Crazymoments01 The US in the better days as we knew the US.

"He didn't break the law out of greed. He broke it out of love. Standing in court, head in his hands, shivering in an orange jumpsuit, he looked like just another criminal facing fraud charges. But the file on the judge's desk told a different story. He'd written a bad check for thousands of dollars. Not for a new car or a vacation, but at a pharmacy counter. When the insurance company denied his mother's life-saving medication, panic took over. He knew the check would bounce, but he also knew it was the only way to get the medicine she needed to survive the week. Now, he faced prison time for that desperation. And as he stood there weeping, his only thought wasn't about jail, but about who would take care of her if he was gone. He braced himself for sentencing. But the judge didn't bring down his gavel. In a moment that stunned the entire room, she stood, leaned across the bench, and wrapped her arms around him. She didn't see a con artist; she saw a loving son pushed to the brink. Holding his face in her hands, she looked him in the eye and delivered the life-changing verdict: 'It's over. I'm dropping the charges. You deserve a second chance, and I believe you can take advantage of it.' She didn't just give him back his freedom; she gave him the challenge of going home, taking care of his family, and making this mercy matter. Sometimes, justice isn't just about punishment. It's about understanding. Do you think the judge made the right decision by looking at the 'why' instead of just the 'what'?"

@EthanLevins2 And the header is misleading as well. This is not an independent journalist; more very biased. And the words used are not from a so called christian as well. And at the end, this is more spreading false biased information and certainly not looking for the truth.

Hideous footage of what Putin's drones did to civilian apartments in Kiev. Oh. My bad. That's actually Russian civilians being targeted in Russia by NATO’s weapons. It's okay though because my TV told me Ukraine are the good guys!

This is the photo of trump that the world press released of trump from China. The White House hasn't been able to pull it down.

@PerseusLeGrand Tant que je ne suis pas là, c'est que je fais quelque chose de mal.

Quelle est votre première pensée en voyant cela ?

I feel compelled to post this banger of a clip showing Barbara Walters humiliate trump to his face, as a reminder to reporters: YOU DON'T HAVE TO ACCEPT HIM CALLING YOU "DUMMY." This is outstanding. 👏👏👏

@27KeysToTheRace @MAGALieTracker @kellyjohnsonhas Really? The US is totally lost...

@MAGALieTracker @kellyjohnsonhas It’s still in the FY 2027 budget as of today

BREAKING: In a massive blow to Trump, the Senate parliamentarian ruled that Trump’s $1,000,000,000 request for ballroom funding cannot be included in the GOP reconciliation bill. That means his ballroom needs 60 votes. The taxpayer-funded ballroom is dead.

@EthanLevins2 American talking Russian. The US it totally lost.

@Turbinetraveler Tjonge jonge...

@PeterMallouk And the people in the US... look the other way. Normal societies stand against these idiots. Not in this dictorial system. The US is totally lost.

House Speaker Johnson argues that $200K isn’t enough for members of Congress to support their families, so they should either get a raise or be allowed to trade individual stocks. Otherwise, he says, America won’t attract qualified people to serve. Whether Republican or Democrat, I think we can agree they’re in office to SERVE, it is called being a public SERVANT, and we don’t need them doing it for decades. One or two terms, max. After that, they get so captured by special interests they’ll do whatever it takes to stay in office. No thanks. As for stock trading, the evidence is overwhelming that people picking individual stocks underperform the market. The only way a member of Congress beats it is with inside information, which both parties have shown, repeatedly, they’re willing to use and make unearned, unethical profits on the backs of the American taxpayer. There should be no raises and no stock trading allowed for anyone in Congress

@allenanalysis No one sucks russia's 🥒 better than the republicans.

@Damaan4u33 Don't do that. Stay in your own shit!

Well? What would you say to them?

@glenn_tunes There was one men in Moscow, and was or became Russian agent. Krasnov aka Trump...

25TH AMENDMENT NOW ✊✊✊

@BraddrofliT But too less time to really get the US back on the old track. The world have seen the reality. They will never trust the US again. The US is totally lost.

Here’s the part no one is saying: The next president won’t get a real first term. They’ll inherit a repair job. Rebuilding alliances. Restoring credibility. Undoing damage. An entire presidency spent fixing what Trump broke.

@MarioNawfal The world is going on solar and wind, the US might learn perhaps after 100 years that coal and oil was not really benificial on long term. Not the right direction. The US is totally lost.

🇨🇳 China just switched on the world's largest offshore solar farm 2.3 million solar panels. 2,934 steel platforms. 11,736 piles driven into the ocean floor. Built to survive force-11 gales and sea ice. It sits 5 miles off the coast and powers 2.67 million people. Oh, and they're also farming fish underneath it 😳

Shopping for new girls to take.

@ViralReelAddict Afraid of moving away from a constitutional replublic tona communistic society. That started already with your president who admires autocractic leaders in communistic countries like the ussr and China. With that president the US is totally lost.

Mike Johnson just had a meltdown on Fox News about "mini-Mamdanis" popping up everywhere. He accidentally told the whole country exactly why Republicans are about to get crushed. The Speaker of the House went on Fox News and lost it. Not over a policy fight, not over a scandal, but over the fact that progressive Democrats are starting to win and people actually like what they're doing. His exact words: "Mini-Mamdanis popping up all around the country, and they're openly avowed to socialist Marxist ideology. This is something we have never seen before in American history. This is about moving away from a constitutional republic to a communist utopian ideology. And that's a dangerous thing for the future of the country." Translation: People are starting to like Democrats who actually fight for them, and I'm panicking. And yes, the "mini-Mamdanis" are absolutely real. Graham Platner in Maine. Brian Poindexter in Pennsylvania. Abdul El-Sayed in Michigan. All running on Mamdani-style platforms. All gaining traction. All scaring the absolute hell out of Republicans and the corporate Democrats who told you for decades that progressive policies are unwinnable. Why is this happening? Because Mamdani just proved every one of them wrong. He inherited a $12 billion deficit from the corrupt Eric Adams administration. He erased it without slashing public services and without raising taxes on working New Yorkers. He's investing $122 million to hire 1,000 new teachers. He just turned the blocks in front of 50 NYC public schools into car-free "Soccer Streets" so kids can play in celebration of the World Cup. That's the nightmare Mike Johnson is screaming about on Fox News. Not communism. Not a "utopian ideology." Teachers. Parks. A balanced budget. Kids playing soccer. Republicans spent decades convincing Americans that government can't do anything well, that progressives will bankrupt them, that taxing billionaires will end civilization. Mamdani called the bluff. The math worked. The schools opened. The streets filled with kids. And now every red-baiting Republican talking point is collapsing in real time. Mike Johnson isn't afraid of communism. He's afraid of competence. He's afraid Americans will look at New York, then look at the Republican-run hellscapes across this country, and start asking obvious questions. Bring on the mini-Mamdanis. Every single one of them.

@CharmOfCulture Come to The Hague!

This is the most overrated city in all of Europe.

@marcelbar8 @magnifiekZL Prachtige foto's!

Goedemorgen, mijn dag begon weer vroeg in @magnifiekZL waar ik de zon rond 5:56 uur prachtig zag opkomen in de omgeving van #Eyserheide (F2). Wandel dit keer in de wijde omgeving van #Simpelveld. F1 zicht op #Ubachsberg F2 zicht op #Fromberg F3 omgeving van #Eys

@DoopieCash In lijn met de stream vandaag. Wijze lessen!

Als je dit niet snapt, heb je nog veel te leren. Traden gaat niet om je gelijk halen, maar om het nemen van trades die aan je systeem voldoen. Als die er liggen en de condities aanwezig zijn, neem je de trade. Wat hierna gebeurt, heb je niet in de hand. Je trade altijd in het nu en daarnaar zul je moeten handelen.

@JDB_trading Wat is er gebeurd? Hopelijk snel herstel.

Goed weekend! Volgende week hopelijk weer wat meer grafieken. Probeer nog steeds mijn oude energielevel terug te vinden na mijn lichamelijke melt-down van een paar weken terug. Wil nog niet helemaal lukken helaas…
