👑 Trump's Third Term? Peter Rothpletz on Donald Trump's brazen push to secure a 3rd (forever?) term, the White House's transformation into a Saddam Hussein-style palace, and the bombshell NBA gambling indictments.

"Forgive me, but how in the world is this not on the front page of every American newspaper, leading every cable news show, and right smack dab in the middle of every legacy media homepage? Why are we, at Zeteo, the only folks leading with this insane story?"

Our military is being paid by an anonymous donor.

Our WH East Wing was demolished for a ballroom - paid for by donors.

These aren’t acts of benevolence or patriotism.

This is the oligarchy assuming control, insidiously becoming part of how we function.

Every American should reject it.

As Trump plans to steal $230 million from taxpayers, we can thank John Roberts Shall we call it a "Roberts reward"?

Trump is demanding that the DOJ transfer $230 million in taxpayer dollars into his own personal bank account.

He can do this because, thanks to the Supreme Court’s recent decisions, the executive branch could accurately be described by King Louis XIV—L’état, c’est Trump.

If a temporary resident of the White House can totally demolish the East Wing to build a gaudy ballroom, without any authority, approval, or regulation, he can tear down the rest of the White House to build a Walmart. That this destruction is allowed underscores how off the rails our country is now.

“Starting on Day One, we will end inflation and make America affordable again, to bring down the prices of all goods.”

—Donald Trump, August 2024

Physical separation between cyclists, pedestrians and motorists key to safer streets, research shows The study also found that bad behaviour is the biggest contributing factor towards streets hostile to walking and wheeling

The Constitution is not self-enforcing.

The only thing holding our Republic together are our norms.

And the only thing that enforces those norms is The People.

No one is coming to save us.

It's entirely up to us.

The Affordable Care Act became law in 2010

Since then, Republicans tried to repeal, replace, defund and overturn it

NEVER did they offer a viable alternative to it

Now-as health insurance costs are exploding-they’re terrified

Because it threatens their hegemony over the American body politic

He is so, so close to getting it.

FYI :“Destruction of federal property is a federal crime. 18 U.S. Code § 1361 defines the crime as willfully injuring or committing any depredation against U.S. government property. If the damage exceeds $1k it is a felony with a fine, up to ten years in prison or both.”

ICE/DHS, FBI, and local police on horseback, along with a secret police force in black tactical gear, were witnessed violently confronting the relatives of individuals abducted during a raid at a "Family Day" rodeo in Idaho. Among those who have gone missing are children and U.S. citizens.

Walk & Talk - Trump is a bacterial infection like salmonella, spreading throughout the land, “hold my beer” Hegseth is trying to hide whatever he’s doing (missiles over CA), Nero let Rome burn, is that Trump’s ambition? youtu.be/9W4pckXNzow?...

Does lying about demolishing the entire East Wing of the White House with zero consultation with Congress, the National Park Service or anyone else something that will reach the low info voter who doesn’t watch the news? Will anything reach them?

🧵 1/5 Thanks, Trump. Because only you could turn a shutdown into an asbestos awareness week. 🎉

Jim Morrison's Gravesite Bust Was Found. The Mystery of Its Disappearance Continues

In May, Paris police announced the discovery of the long-missing statue, stolen from the Doors frontman’s resting place in 1988.

But questions linger about who took it and why

We have just over two weeks to pass Prop 50. And when we do, it will send a message of hope across the country, that change is possible if we do the work.

I don’t wanna see any federal tax deductions on my paycheck during the shutdown.

He did everything he possibly could to overturn the election & stay in power - threatening his VP, Govs & Secs of States, organizing a mob to storm the Capitol. He knew if he ordered a military coup they would’ve refused & he would’ve been tried for treason. That’s why he left.
