Better Days

@SebastienneL @8WithaTiara Amazing💗 Thanks for sharing that🌸🙂

@GroovyGreatness @8WithaTiara Yes, very, despite the austerity! It was very peaceful. I literally turned up on their doorstep unannounced. They gave me some work to do creating a garden & cooking & I got some sound advice so yes, it was well worth it!

SUMMER DRINKING TIP: When someone says they’re not drinking/refusing the alcoholic beverage you’re offering, do not ask why. Just offer a non-alcoholic option and move on.. because whatever the reason is, it’s almost always none of your business.

Amazon just got caught running a secret price manipulation operation with Levi's, Home Depot, Walmart, and many more. Every time you "comparison shopped" online, you were looking at prices that were already rigged. Here's what happened: Amazon would monitor prices on Walmart, Target, Best Buy, Home Depot, and Chewy in real time. The second a competitor listed a product cheaper than Amazon, they'd contact the brand directly and tell them to "fix it." And the exact emails are now PUBLIC. Amazon sent Levi's links to two Walmart listings with the subject line "styles of concern." They basically said the prices on Walmart are too low and we have a problem. The next day, Levi's responded: "I talked to Walmart and they have partnered with us to take Easy Khaki Classic fit back up to ladder SPP price, $29.99 immediately." Levi's literally called Walmart and told them to raise the price. Because Amazon told Levi's to make the call. Walmart complied. Then Amazon matched the HIGHER price. Both retailers ended up charging more. The customer paid extra. Nobody competed. Same playbook with Hanes: Amazon sent them links showing Target and Walmart prices were lower. Hanes confirmed they "reached out to Target and Walmart to have the prices increased." Target increased the prices. Walmart increased the prices. Amazon kept their margins. But it gets even worse... Amazon told Allergan (the company that makes eye drops) that their product was "suppressed" on Amazon because it was cheaper on another site. Allergan responded: "Walmart got their price back up to $16.99." Amazon then unsuppressed the listing. They did this with pet treats on Chewy. Furniture on Home Depot. Products across dozens of categories spanning YEARS. The mechanism is simple but terrifying: If you're a brand and you sell cheaper on Walmart than on Amazon, Amazon suppresses your product, removes you from the Buy Box, buries you in search results, and effectively makes you invisible to 300 million customers. Brands can't afford that. So they call Walmart and Target and say "raise your prices or we'll lose our Amazon listings." Walmart and Target comply because they need the brand's products. Amazon captures 40 cents of every dollar spent online in America. That gives them the leverage to set prices across THE ENTIRE internet. Not just their own platform. So turns out, you were never comparison shopping. You were looking at a coordinated price floor set by Amazon through backroom phone calls between brands and their competitors. "Amazon is working to make your life more unaffordable." 3 separate antitrust trials are now scheduled for 2027. The FTC has its own case. 18 states plus the DOJ are piling on. This is literally happening during the WORST affordability crisis in a generation. Groceries up 25% since 2020. Housing unaffordable. Wages flat. And the largest ecommerce company on Earth has been secretly coordinating with brands to make sure you can't find a cheaper price ANYWHERE. "Competition" in retail is just a fantasy.

@BishSongs This is sad news. Saw him on Long Island a number of times and he was absolutely brilliant.

I am very sorry to hear about the passing of my friend Dave Mason. We did a show together back in the early 70s, and I remember how incredibly talented he was. I was always a fan of his early work with Traffic. I especially love his song “Only You Know and I Know.” We stayed in touch through the years, and he was always kind to me and an incredible guitar player. My heartfelt condolences go out to his family, friends, and fans.

@MarcoFoster_ 🤣🤦‍♀️

Seth Meyers reminds us how batshit crazy the last 3 weeks have been: Trump fired AG Pam Bondi. He posted a meme of himself as Jesus then said he thought it was a meme of himself as a doctor. He said the Pope is weak on crime. A MAGA podcaster said Trump is under demonic influence. Pete Hegseth read a fake bible verse from Pulp Fiction. Kash Patel thought he was fired because he got locked out of his computer. A FEMA official claims he once teleported to a Waffle House. Lindsey Graham was seen at Disney World by himself. RFK Jr. cut off a dead raccoon’s penis on the side of the road. Kristi Noem’s husband has giant fake balloon boobs.

Trump told you he’d run America like a business. He is. It’s called asset stripping. You sell the profitable pieces, gut the workforce, load it with debt, and walk away rich while everyone else holds the bag. Congratulations. You didn’t elect a president. You hired a liquidator.

Sure, I paid $6/gallon for gas in Miami today but I rest easy knowing that if not for this war Jared Kushner wouldn't be a billionaire. We're all in this struggle together.

@MariaDeAngelo9 @rise4thespiral @tale_wife @LesleyMiss17638 @SianSibbon52056 @Leigh_O_Cake @MikeDePorch45 @Algar1233 @RealMassguy Difficult to know what to say💁‍♀️ It's been such a miscarriage of justice. How's it going to get righted?😼

Let’s try this 1 more time. Different creator. Let me guess. A typo?🙄🤦🏻‍♀️ #Idaho4 @rise4thespiral @GroovyGreatness @tale_wife @LesleyMiss17638 @SianSibbon52056 @Leigh_O_Cake @MikeDePorch45 @Algar1233 @RealMassguy

A Maine air carrier was forced to stop delivering mail today. USPS owes them $388,000 and hasn't paid since March. Trump is breaking the Post Office. Rural Maine pays the price.

Jeffrey Epstein signed his will on August 8, 2019. Two days before he was found dead. He transferred his entire estate, valued at $577 million, into a trust. The beneficiaries remain sealed.

ICYMI: Deputy Attorney General Todd Blanche has admitted the DOJ excluded images showing “death, physical abuse, or injury” from today’s Epstein files release. Let that sink in. The government is acknowledging graphic evidence exists and chose to withhold it, while redacting names tied to Jeffrey Epstein and his powerful associates, including Donald Trump. Yet, nothing has happened for months now.

Press TV confirms a major diplomatic move. Iran officially demands Israel submit its entire covert nuclear program to international monitoring. The Zionist regime secretly hoards over 100 nuclear warheads while the West remains fully complicit. The hypocrisy is staggering.

DOJ is now 122 days overdue in releasing the Epstein files.

Iranian Commander Abuzar confirms a US submarine deliberately fired a second torpedo at the disabled destroyer Dena specifically to maximize casualties. The Pentagon intentionally murdered 104 unarmed sailors, completely ignoring international laws of war law of the seas.

🇺🇸Reporter: Is the war really about Iran’s nuclear program? 🇨🇳CHINA: "No it's all about oil" 🇺🇸Reporter: Why So? 🇨🇳CHINA : "A warmongering Israel has nuclear weapons, but Iran — the oldest civilization — can’t have them. That’s America’s biggest double standard."🔥

If Jared Kushner is going to play diplomat on behalf of the United States, then he needs to meet the same standards as actual diplomats. That means full disclosure, divestment from foreign financial interests, and a real security vetting process. Instead, we’ve got a guy who couldn’t secure a clearance without intervention, now entangled in billions from Middle Eastern governments, operating with zero transparency. He’s unelected. He’s unconfirmed. And he’s making decisions with global consequences. He’s not there on merit. He’s there because he married into power. That’s not diplomacy. That’s nepotism with a security risk attached.

Fifteen minutes before the President announced he was pausing strikes on Iran, somebody moved $500 million in oil futures. Somebody knew. Somebody told them. Or somebody is them. New piece (Link in reply)

BBC confirms the Trump administration has completely hollowed out the State Department, attempting complex global diplomacy without actual diplomats. Donald Trump arrogantly believes his unqualified envoys can force an agreement, but Iran is exposing their total incompetence.

The mask is off. AIPAC’s Democrat-focussed pro-abortion super PAC, United Democracy Project, is now helping Woke Eddie. They just bought $790,000 of ads against me this week. Here’s an example of ads they run for democrats. Can you help me counter this? secure.thomasmassie.com/donate

MASSIVE: 🇺🇸 The BBC just validated everything we've been saying. A clear pattern of trades right before major Trump announcements. Iran war. Tariff reversals. Policy shifts. We tracked a whale for weeks. 0 losses. 11 wins. 100% win rate. You would go to prison for trading on a tip from your cousin. They front-run war decisions with billion dollar bets. Now the BBC has the receipts. Nobody will be investigated. Nobody will be charged. The game is rigged. And now the world knows it.
