This story is from 3 weeks ago, but it's the first I've heard about

The Signal Clone the Trump Admin Uses Was Hacked: 404 Media

A hacker has breached [a] modified versions of Signal. ... The data stolen by the hacker contains the contents of some direct messages and group chats sent using its Signal clone ... TeleMessage was recently the center of a wave of media coverage after Mike Waltz accidentally revealed he used the tool in a cabinet meeting with President Trump.

The hack shows that an app gathering messages of the highest ranking officials in the government—Waltz’s chats on the app include recipients that appear to be Marco Rubio, Tulsi Gabbard, and JD Vance—contained serious vulnerabilities that allowed a hacker to trivially access the archived chats of some people who used the same tool.

Because most (all) whales knew Trump meme coin was a corrupt bribe to get access, most dumped their coins the moment they got an invitation.

“It was the worst food I’ve ever had at a Trump golf course,” a TikTok personality who gained entry by investing $300,000. “The only good thing was bread and butter.”

One commented the Presidential seal on the podium and food that looked ‘worse than Spirit Airlines.’

Trump only stayed for 25 minutes. Only 25 even got a handshake.

Trump flew in on Marine One and speaking at a lectern emblazoned with the presidential seal, despite the White House arguing that it was a “private” event and he was “attending it in his personal time.”

Some participants showed up in masks, all were male, most appeared of Chinese descent.

That's a question for every Trump supporter and one that doesn't have an easy answer, because some people are far more intelligent than they should be when making such stupid decisions.

Trump's Memorial Day message - More embarrassment!  😦

Trump: 'We're going to win so much, you're going to be so sick and tired of winning'.

A peek in the reality for Americans since Trump came to power.

This car dealer never says "Trump" but from his video posted today...

"I think a lot of people are getting a lot tighter with their money. It has been over the last 3 months ago, 4 months ago.

Anything that we would have out here for $2,000 $2,500 bucks would sell instantly.

We're just seeing that okay we've been a lot slower over the last month and a half.

So what we've had to do is really go back and revamp how we're actually pricing our cars and
lower our prices more, slash our prices."

This economy is forcing me to change my car dealership

Conservatives on the Supreme Court have found against the Trump administration a couple of times recently. The administration appears to be ignoring the findings. Now all those supreme court Conservatives are 'RADICAL LEFT JUDGES' I assume, although Trump has not yet named names.

Rand Paul is closer to a Libertarian in ideology, but he operates as a Republican in practice.

Civil liberties: Strong advocate for privacy rights, opposition to NSA surveillance, and support for criminal justice reform.

Foreign policy: Non-interventionist — opposes foreign military entanglements and nation-building.

Spending & size of government: Supports drastic cuts to federal spending, opposes excessive regulation, and promotes a smaller federal government.

Drug policy: More permissive stance on marijuana legalization and criminal sentencing than most mainstream Republicans.

And yeah, I don't like him.

Republican Rand Paul a hard no on House Republican’s ‘big, beautiful bill’: The Hill

[Far-right wing] Senator Rand Paul (Republican-Kentucky) has told Senate GOP leadership that he is a hard no on the bill the House passed early Thursday morning to enact President Trump’s legislative agenda because the legislation includes language to raise the debt limit by $4 trillion over the next two years.

“I’ve told them if they’ll take the debt ceiling off of it, I’ll consider voting for it,” Paul said of his conversations with GOP leadership.

“We’ve never, ever voted to raise the debt ceiling this much. It’ll be a historic increase. I think it’s not good for conservatives to be on record supporting a $4 [trillion] or $5 trillion increase in the debt ceiling,” he said.

Paul said the expected yearly deficit will be $2 trillion over the next two years if the bill passes in the upper chamber.

“It’s not conservative; I can’t support it,” he said.

“If they were to take the debt ceiling off of it and have the tax reductions and spending reductions, I’d probably vote for that,” he added. “The spending reductions are imperfect, and I think wimpy, but I’d still vote for the package if I didn’t have to vote to raise the debt ceiling.”

Paul predicted Trump and the Republican Party will “own” future deficits if they pass a budget reconciliation bill that adds another $4 trillion on to the debt.

21,000,000 million people ... that's a lot of people, I can see why he's upset. Clearly the rest of you do a a hell of lot more travel to the US than me. I haven't been there for about 12 years.

"21,000,000 MILLION" = 21,000,000,000,000 (21 trillion)

So I guess everyone on earth is
  • has crossed the borders on average 2,600 times
  • mainly mentally insane
  • mainly murderers, drug dealers, rapist, gang members and released prisoners
Let's assume Trump meant 21 million. That's about 3.4% of everyone in South America, Mexico, and Canada.

Most immigrants are crossing the border repeatedly per year, for work. If they're working, they are likely not an insane killer.

There were 11 million encounters in a year. Again an "encounter" is likely the same person crossing the border multiple times.

So where does 21 million come from? It's explained in appropriate "Cypress Hill - Insane In The Brain "

He's used the 21 million number since even before the Election, - that's so long in Trump terms even he has probably forgotten how they made the number up... He's repeated it numerous times since, without providing any source.

 

 

 

September 2024 debate
"On Tuesday night he started referring to millions, mentioned 21 million, then said it was surely far more than the official government estimate of 11 million. Then he again said it was more like 21 million before adding he thought the figure was “a lot higher than” that.
And all this without a shred of actual evidence or even a hint at the source of these wildly disparate numbers."

In May 2021, Kennedy asked the federal government to revoke its authorization of all COVID-19 vaccines; in December 2021 he falsely claimed that the COVID-19 vaccine was "the deadliest vaccine ever made."

 

...

 

Earlier this month, Kennedy said during a House hearing that his "opinions about vaccines are irrelevant," later adding "I don't think people should be taking advice, medical advice from me."

 

And yet, somehow, this clown is Secretary of Health 🙄

This feels like the ravings of a mentally ill person. 
Or a Hillbilly with a very low IQ and a hatred of anyone who isn't just like them.
