quickymart: Deputy Attorney General Todd Blanche, who apparently thought it was a good idea to spend two days interviewing her, has promised to “share additional information about what we learned at the appropriate time.”

Clint Eastwood (Jed Cooper) "pock‑marked man” is one of the nine men who falsely accuse Clint Eastwood of cattle rustling, and get him hanged ("pock‑marked man" is not in this scene, but is in same gang).

Executive Summary: Trump is an aggressive, mindless BS/con artist.

Nothing new here. It's what he is, and always has been.

Thank you for your attention ... 😏

kingdragonfly: A rule of thumb: if you live in a country where the an authoritarian leader doesn't like factual employment figures, so invent a new unemployment figure

certainly has an authoritarian leaders
very likely somewhere you don't want to live.
Nazi Germany reduced official unemployment by excluding women, Jews, forced laborers, public works programs (e.g., Autobahn).

In Argentina, under authoritarian ruler Kirchner, the economy began to deteriorate and stagnate. So naturally he manipulated inflation and poverty data to paint a rosier economic picture.

The Soviet Union (USSR) officially claimed “full employment” because unemployment was ideologically considered impossible. Those that weren't employed were called parasites.

In present days, authoritarian regimes Turkmenistan and Uzbekistan often shows inflated GDP growth and virtually nonexistent unemployment, despite widespread hidden poverty.

China local officials often overstate GDP growth and underreport unemployment to meet central government targets. Urban unemployment rates often exclude migrant workers.

North Korea claims near-full employment and rapid growth.

Notice again: not time and places most would want to live in.

Unreal. Stats come out, they don't suit so fire him. In other countries such as Germany in the distant past, or Russia in the present, thats a bullet.

That Trump isnt firing a bullet doesnt make it any better. Its the SAME

The Guardian - He has trouble completing a thought’: bizarre public appearances again cast doubt on Trump’s mental acuity

Mon 4 Aug 2025

Joe Biden was hounded for his age-related gaffes, but Trump’s increasingly strange behavior has largely been ignored.

Donald Trump’s frequently bizarre public appearances, which this month have seen the president claim, wrongly, that his uncle knew the Unabomber and rant unprompted about windmills on his recent trip to the UK, have once again raised questions about his mental acuity, experts say.

For more than a year Trump, 79, has exhibited odd behavior at campaign events, in interviews, in his spontaneous remarks and at press conferences. The president repeatedly drifts off topic, including during a cabinet meeting this month when he spent 15 minutes talking about decorating, and appears to misremember simple facts about his government and his life.

Over the weekend Trump, during a meeting with the European Commission president, Ursula von der Leyen, abruptly switched from discussing immigration to saying this: “The other thing I say to Europe: we’ve – we will not allow a windmill to be built in the United States. They’re killing us. They’re killing the beauty of our scenery.” Trump proceeded to speak, non-stop and unprompted, for two minutes about windmills, claiming without evidence that they drive whales “loco” and that wind energy “kills the birds” ...

The abrupt changes in conversation are an example of Trump “digressing without thinking – he’ll just switch topics without self-regulation, without having a coherent narrative”, said Harry Segal, a senior lecturer in the psychiatry department at Weill Cornell Medicine. ...

Segal said another characteristic of Trump’s questionable mental acuity is confabulation. “It’s where he takes an idea or something that’s happened and he adds to it things that have not happened.”

Typical dementia - Trumps father had the same problem at the same age. 🙁
