Oh it's Truth Social, because of course it is.

Tweet from @realDonaldTrump August 5, 2024: STOCK MARKETS ARE CRASHING, JOB NUMBERS ARE TERRIBLE, WE ARE HEADING TO WORLD WAR III, AND WE HAVE TWO OF THE MOST INCOMPETENT "LEADERS" IN HISTORY. THIS IS NOT GOOD!!!

There is always a tweet.

Will he be wearing his funeral hat?

I can't imagine many Germans coming over to drink it. Anyway it's Fußball.

Apparently you declare them a supply chain risk and starve them.

Indebtedness

The Iraq War dragged on for 104 months after "Mission Accomplished".

I'd settle for sending one of his to Iran

Better wait another 20 years before you implement age verification then.

I would console you with the thought that the 38% will be eroded much more in the next 2½ years.

But there's a hardcore vote that would still support him even if he invaded their homes at night and ate their children.

This feels deliberate

Yeah well there's a story going around about a 13yo who bit Trump's cock, so who's the loser?

I didn't understand this until I found a 1975 Tonight Show clip of Reagan saying essentially "if only we could get rid of all those government jobs".

50 years later, with DOGE, they got the chance, and took it.

They've always been like this.

It's a bloody weird kind of English they talk, I'll tell you that for nowt.

And into the hands of terrorists.

For a quick solution to this, just curl this online script into your root shell and cross your fingers...

No good blaming the AI. This is a straightforward failure of oversight. Just like not checking a junior's work. Every organisation that avoids the dull time-consuming process of proof-reading or code review ends up paying the price; and this is no different.

Headline from BBC News on the statement from the White House Press Secretary: "US military has enough weapons to demolish Iranian regime - White House press secretary"

This is a really odd statement to make unless you're in danger of running out of weapons.

Only 1 out of 3 Oklahoma senators will understand this.

Someone make him say "homo erectus"

It's not freedom if you can't afford to commute to work, can't afford healthcare, and you're afraid to go outside for fear of being attacked by ICE or
an Iranian with a grudge.

I do hope this Axel Springer won't cause a decline in the Telegraph's high editorial standards.

John Prescott's son joins Greens David Prescott decision to join the Greens comes as the party overtakes Labour for the first time in the polls.

Prescott joins Green Party. Dad would have approved quite possibly.

I'm translating it as "they have no dog in this fight"

Mullin probably shakes hands with Pete "soap-dodger" Hegseth too. Considering the health advice there getting from RFK Jr, I don't rate their chances.

We should make more use of phrases like "in which they have neither camel nor she-camel".

Further evidence supporting the "Everyone is 12" theory about the regime.

Absolutely. Always want to point they'll be sending people, not just boots.

At this point I'd be happy to see Spain retaliate and take Texas back. Couldn't be worse that Greg Abbott running the place.

That's more political analysis than you'll find in the article.
