You can't make this up.

Pastor Robert Morris was a close associate and former Trump campaign spiritual adviser.

He has now plead guilty to child sex abuse. Morris is also required to register as a sex offender.

The whole Epstein thing’s got the criminal rattled.

Listen to him, stumbling around trying to answer a question about pardoning Ghislaine Maxwell. And he’s trying so hard not to show it.

White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt on Friday told reporters she wasn’t sure whether Trump was aware of the effort to put his likeness on a coin.

Sure, Jan.

Treasury Department considers minting a $1 Trump coin The draft design of the coin, which was overseen by the Office of the U.S. Treasurer Brandon Beach, features Trump’s profile on one side of the coin.

Does Treasury Dept. have a crystal ball?

Here's hoping! Living people cannot appear on U.S. currency, including coins.

Rule reflects a conscious decision early U.S. government to avoid monarchical practices and honor only figures who have a place in history.

Donald Trump laughed at by European leaders mocking gaffe: Video – Newsweek European leaders at a Political Community summit shared a laugh over a recent gaffe by President Donald Trump.

Albania and Azerbaijan even.

"Everyone says that I should get the Nobel Peace Prize for each of these achievements," the president said after claiming to have ended "seven unendable wars" during his second term.

It's clear what the world makes of Trump.

This was not leadership. It was totalitarian theater. A grotesque parody of command staged by cowards who would not survive five minutes in the world of the people they dared to lecture.

I’m confused how it is despicable to ask that question. These are exactly the kinds of questions we have been begging reporters & TV hosts to ask. You see when they do get asked how sensitive they are about it. Much, much more of this. More crypto questions, Qatar, UAE, etc bsky.app/profile/atru...

McCartney explained on Chaos and Creation at Abbey Road that the guitar accompaniment for "Blackbird" was inspired by Bach's BourrΓ©e in E minor. As teenagers, he and George Harrison tried to learn BourrΓ©e as a "show off" piece.

"Our history is filled with military heroes who took on all enemies foreign and domestic."
