The only way we save our country is through our numbers.

Trump and MAGA don't have the majority, not even close.

Overwhelm them with numbers. Resist everywhere. They are too reckless, incompetent, and self-destructive.

Also, divide and conquer. Many fissures, especially around Epstein.

Trump says inflation is 'defeated' and the Fed has cut rates, yet prices remain too high for many Inflation has risen in three of the last four months and is slightly higher than it was a year ago.

apnews.com/article/trum...

Inflation has accelerated in three of the last four months to 2.9% year-over-year in Aug., still above the Fed’s 2% target — yet Trump claims victory and the Fed has begun cutting. Policymakers are betting tariff impacts are fleeting; if they’re not, credibility and real incomes erode. New and expanded duties (100% on pharmaceuticals, 50% on cabinets/vanities, 25% on heavy trucks) and corporate pass-throughs are lifting prices on staples —groceries up 2.7%, coffee up 21%— with more hikes signalled (artificial trees about 10%; Merry Christmas!). The Sept. CPI could be delayed by the shutdown, clouding the picture. {𝙖𝙅𝙎𝘿} Shutdowns don’t just furlough workers — they blind the public. Delayed CPI/jobs/GDP aren’t bugs; they’re predictable features of the tactic.

Prince Andrew told Jeffrey Epstein ‘we’re in this together’ in 2011 email Royal sent email after Virginia Giuffre photo emerged but later claimed he had ceased contact with Epstein in 2010

www.theguardian.com/uk-news/2025...

Prince Andrew’s 2011 email to Jeffrey Epstein —❝we are in this together… keep in close touch… play some more soon❞— collides with his public claim that he ended contact in 2010. The disclosure intensifies pressure on the royal family and revives scrutiny of elite ties, as papers also show Tony Blair met Epstein in 2002 on Peter Mandelson’s recommendation (❝safe,❞ a ❝friend❞). Buckingham Palace has been asked for comment.

❝We are in this together… keep in close touch… we’ll play some more soon!!!!❞ Prince Andrew (email to Jeffrey Epstein, 28-Feb-2011), Prince Andrew told Jeffrey Epstein ❛we’re in this together❜ in 2011 email, The Guardian, Sun. 12-Oct-2025 ❝I ceased contact with him after I was aware that he was under investigation… and I wasn’t in touch with him again until 2010.❞ Prince Andrew (Newsnight interview, Nov-2019), Ibid ❝I had to show leadership and I had to go and see him and I had to tell him ❛that’s it❜.❞ Prince Andrew, Ibid ❝Safe❞… a ❝friend❞.

{𝙖𝙅𝙎𝘿}: 2011 email to Epstein: ❝we’re in this together… keep in close touch… play some more soon.❞ Andrew had told the BBC he cut contact in 2010. The receipts don’t match the alibi — this timeline torpedoes the Duke and drags the Palace back in.

🤔 {𝙖𝙅𝙎𝘿}: 1 block, 1 edit, 1 script: streamers stage chaos, the White House blesses the cut, agencies open rooftops, and ❝fake news❞ sticks to anyone left outside. Stop governing by sizzle reel — equal press access, full-context releases, labelled influencer footage.

Précis of report co-authored by Robert Klemko and Joshua Partlow Manufactured Crisis, Made-For-Streaming Portland’s unrest is largely confined to a single block outside the ICE facility, yet a steady stream of curated clips portrays a city ❝under siege,❞ fuelling calls to deploy the National Guard. White House Amplification After influencer Nick Sortor’s Fri. 03-Oct-2025 arrest, Trump personally praised him and later hosted him at a DHS roundtable where antifa was likened to Hezbollah. Trump’s message and stage time validated the narrative and the narrators. Gatekeeping & Access Conservative streamers gained rooftop access inside ICE alongside armed agents; mainstream outlets —including OPB, the Oregonian, the Seattle Times, and The Washington Post— were denied. One influencer’s footage became a White House sizzle reel. Day vs Night Optics Daytime protests skew absurdist (pyjamas, inflatables, Naked Bike Ride), but nights bring clashes: pepper spray, fireworks, arrests. Portland police mostly contain rather than clear, drawing federal frustration. The Spark & the Spin A DHS officer pepper-sprayed 19-year-old Leilani Payne; Sortor filmed her, scuffled with counter protesters, and was arrested for disorderly conduct. His charge was dropped while two others’ cases proceed — then came the White House embrace.

Influencer Economy & Tactics Right-wing streamers provoke, film, and monetise outrage; followers surge (e.g., ❝TKO Tommy❞ jumping to 16,000+). Critics describe a cottage industry: antagonise, clip out the provocation, claim victimhood, cash in. Law-And-Order Choreography Since June 8, police report 47 arrests near the site. ICE invited favoured media inside ❝for safety,❞ while protesters allege excessive force (pepper balls, tear gas). Local officials❜ posture shapes police restraint. Why It Matters A feedback loop — provocation → viral clip → presidential signal boost — turns spectacle into policy justification. The ❝Portland is burning❞ storyline is less reportage than production, with the state’s coercive power chasing the edit.

🚨👀🤔 Précis of report co-authored by Robert Klemko and Joshua Partlow follows ⤵

A conservative influencer was arrested in Portland. Trump was watching. After conservative influencer Nick Sortor was arrested outside an ICE facility in Portland, Donald Trump latched on to justify a federal crackdown.

{𝙖𝙅𝙎𝘿} Gift article, gentlefolk… ⤸ wapo.st/46YA5jH

Trump-aligned streamers are turning a single Portland block into a stage and feeding curated clips to the White House to sell a National Guard narrative. Conservative influencers get rooftop access and hero treatment while mainstream outlets are denied. Arrests, pepper spray, and sizzle reels stand in for reality as a made-for-social outrage machine helps justify policy in Trump’s second term. The pattern is deliberate: provoke, film, and monetise fury to claim a city ❝under siege,❞ even as coverage choices tilt the field and prosecutions diverge — charges dropped for a favoured influencer while others proceed. It reads like a manufactured crisis in search of footage, not facts.
