Subject: RE: Convicted felon US Prez 47/Don't Say His Name From: Donuel Date: 27 Jan 26 - 07:00 AM Toddler Trump may have had too many lead paint chips in his Queen's youth but he learned his dad's basic lessons of not paying and tying plaintiffs up in court, as well as a good dose of bigotry. As an adult with the Taj Mahal Casino, he found out the Mob had to be paid and how selling off in bankruptcy is part of the plan. Extortion and threats were now in his playbook. This strategy has worked for him to this day. He demanded billions of dollars from S Korea and recently piled tariffs up on them for not paying promptly. Even an addled brain from lead poisoning can use bigotry and mob mentality effectively. With more power mere threats can be replaced with various criminal acts. He is currently enjoying his adventures with vicarious murder. |

Subject: RE: Convicted felon US Prez 47/Don't Say His Name From: Helen Date: 27 Jan 26 - 01:09 PM I have read a few articles on ABC (Oz) News which bring a glimmer of hope, in a few different situations. Individually, each situation may look like nothing much, but combine them all and consider the fact that they are happening simultaneously, around the world and in the US and that is where the glimmer of hope can be found, IMHO. Trump administration sued by families over deadly Venezuelan boat strike "In short: The Trump administration's military campaign of striking boats in the Caribbean and Pacific oceans is facing its first legal challenge through the US courts. "Families of two men, Chad Joseph and Rishi Samaroo, allege the pair were murdered while returning to the Caribbean island nation of Trinidad during a strike on October 14 last year. "The Trump administration has previously framed the attacks as being a war against drug cartels." What is in the EU-India trade deal and what does it mean for global trade? Note: the main concept of this article is that Trump's tactics are working against both him and the US in relation to the economic decisions of other countries. Tensions in Minnesota could send the US into another government shutdown — here's why "Politicians across the spectrum in the United States are looking for ways forward as public outrage intensifies in Minnesota. "As President Donald Trump sends in his 'border czar', Democrats are weighing whether to trigger a partial government shutdown." This article is by a highly valued ABC (Oz) analytical journalist, Laura Tingle - always worth reading, IMHO: Immigration was at the centre of Donald Trump's 2024 win, but it's now mired in controversy "Donald Trump's presidency is increasingly being described as at a turning point that compels the Congress to take action to restrain him. "The political mishandling of an escalating ICE crisis in Minneapolis — on top of a series of foreign policy threats and reversals — resulted in a poll by The Economist/YouGov finding an extraordinary 71 per cent of Americans reporting they felt like the country is 'out of control'. "More than 60 per cent say the country is on the wrong track, and 58 per cent are dissatisfied with the way democracy is working. "And just in case you think this might simply reflect one side of politics in an increasingly bitterly divided America, 50 per cent of those saying they felt things were out of control identified themselves as conservatives." There are a lot more of these situations which are being reported on, and I have a sneaking feeling that the multiple and various sheepdogs are closing in on the renegade. |

Subject: RE: Convicted felon US Prez 47/Don't Say His Name From: Donuel Date: 28 Jan 26 - 05:23 AM Do not forget that the capture of Maduro killed over 100 people Mr T will not allow any civil rights to be applied to the Federal killing of Pretti. He says that Minnesotans have been radicalized and are mostly paid demonstrators with Trump derangement. Paid by whom? Radicalized by Trump, and why no more civil rights? Men, Women, and certain races are not created equal; they are not endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, like Life, and Liberty, but the pursuit of Happiness by Trump and his friends is paramount. |

Subject: RE: Convicted felon US Prez 47/Don't Say His Name From: r.padgett Date: 28 Jan 26 - 07:46 AM What are ICE's terms of reference? Are they police who have done training? Are they paid mercenaries? Does it take 7/8 bullets to restrain a man making photos? Should they be protected by Big T? |

Subject: RE: Convicted felon US Prez 47/Don't Say His Name From: Donuel Date: 28 Jan 26 - 08:19 AM Weapon and arrest training for ICE agents is only 43 days. Compare that with any Police Academy. DHS funding that includes ICE already has an appropriation of Seventy-five Billion Dollars! They want more money to build their Gestapo shock troop Army. This is how much ICE agents make with bonuses... Money for ICE agents (gov. website) |

Subject: RE: Convicted felon US Prez 47/Don't Say His Name From: Donuel Date: 28 Jan 26 - 08:26 AM There is no age limit for ICE agents https://www.ice.gov/join At the end of the war, Hitler used troops from the ages of 16 to 60; however, even 10-year-olds had auxiliary roles. Trump is more honorable than Hitler when it comes to the age of troops. basic training for the US Army is 10 weeks. |

Subject: RE: Convicted felon US Prez 47/Don't Say His Name From: Helen Date: 28 Jan 26 - 11:09 PM That's funny, because I just watched the latest episode of The Late Show with Stephen Colbert and he said that ticket sales info has been hitting social media because hardly any tickets are being sold. Watching a Melania bio-pic would be the biggest yawn I could imagine. |

Subject: RE: Convicted felon US Prez 47/Don't Say His Name From: Helen Date: 29 Jan 26 - 04:51 AM Well, funny you should ask that. The one time I have seen her break out in the biggest, sunniest smile I have ever seen was when she was greeting Putin at a meeting between the three of them. [Like the secret agent greeting her KGB minder.] |

Subject: RE: Convicted felon US Prez 47/Don't Say His Name From: Backwoodsman Date: 29 Jan 26 - 08:45 AM Bruce Springsteen has released a new song, ‘Streets of Minneapolis’ which he wrote, recorded, and released in less than one week… STREETS OF MINNEAPOLIS Bruce Springsteen Through the winter's ice and cold, down Nicollet Avenue A city aflame fought fire and ice 'neath an occupier's boots King Trump's private army from the DHS, guns belted to their coats Came to Minneapolis to enforce the law or so their story goes Against smoke and rubber bullets, in the dawn's early light Citizens stood for justice, their voices ringing through the night And there were bloody footprints where mercy should have stood And two dead left to die on snow-filled streets, Alex Pretti and Renee Good Oh our Minneapolis, I hear your voice singing through the bloody mist We'll take our stand for this land and the stranger in our midst Here in our home they killed and roamed in the winter of '26 We'll remember the names of those who died on the streets of Minneapolis Trump's federal thugs beat up on his face and his chest Then we heard the gunshots and Alex Pretti lay in the snow dead Their claim was self-defense, sir, just don't believe your eyes It's our blood and bones and these whistles and phones against Miller and Noem's dirty lies Oh our Minneapolis, I hear your voice crying through the bloody mist We'll remember the names of those who died on the streets of Minneapolis Now they say they're here to uphold the law but they trample on our rights If your skin is black or brown my friend you can be questioned or deported on sight In our chants of "ICE out now!" our city's heart and soul persists Through broken glass and bloody tears on the streets of Minneapolis Oh our Minneapolis, I hear your voice singing through the bloody mist Here in our home they killed and roamed in the winter of '26 We'll take our stand for this land and the stranger in our midst We'll remember the names of those who died on the streets of Minneapolis We'll remember the names of those who died on the streets of Minneapolis Bruce Springsteen - ‘Streets of Minneapolis’ (YouTube) Good job, Boss! |

Subject: RE: Convicted felon US Prez 47/Don't Say His Name From: Helen Date: 29 Jan 26 - 12:40 PM Thank you Bruce Springsteen - what a brave man! That song is, as we say in Oz, spot-on! And MaJoC, I had to look up "IIRC" - again! - and now I have decided it should be my moniker as a proud dyslexic. IIRC - if I remember correctly. [Note: My dyslexic memory banks are like the library in Sir Pterry's Discworld and I have to send the Librarian on a slow search through the labyrinthine mental archives every time I need to get a fix on a name or a specific terminology which is escaping me. As an ex-librarian, I'm happy to attach my persona to that. Now if only I could remember the Librarian's distinctive answer to everything. Oh yeah, I looked it up. "Ook!" :-D ] |

Subject: RE: Convicted felon US Prez 47/Don't Say His Name From: Backwoodsman Date: 30 Jan 26 - 03:26 AM Once again, the FUOB has attacked Jerome Powell, calling him a ‘moron’, over the central bank’s Federal Open Market Committee’s decision not to artificially cut interest rates. ”Because of the vast amounts of money flowing into our Country because of Tariffs, we should be paying the LOWEST INTEREST RATE OF ANY COUNTRY IN THE WORLD,” he said… The president did not explain what, if anything, revenue from tariffs (which are import taxes paid by Americans and not by foreign countries as he often claims) had to do with the Fed’s “overnight rate” that lays out how much interest banks can charge each other for short-term interbank loans… Tariffs have made America strong and powerful again, far stronger and more powerful than any other Nation. Commensurate with this strength, both financial and otherwise, WE SHOULD BE PAYING LOWER INTEREST RATES THAN ANY OTHER COUNTRY IN THE WORLD,” he added…” Read the full article from The Independent here. Are Americans really so stupid as to believe the bare-faced lie that tariffs are paid by foreign countries? Tariffs are paid for by Americans, there is no vast flow of money into the US from tariffs, so why isn’t the FUOB called out on the lie? |

Subject: RE: Convicted felon US Prez 47/Don't Say His Name From: Donuel Date: 30 Jan 26 - 10:43 AM Are some people so dumb to believe a tariff lie? You bet. Another distraction from Minnesota schools' drop in 20% of attendance as well as nursing home employees, is the arrest of national journalists like Don Lemon, who covered the protests..Of course they are black. Oh the very young and very old are impacted by ICE crimes. I posted Bruce above and below the line. My mistake was not hearing the difference between the first and last lyrics as they are written. |

Subject: RE: Convicted felon US Prez 47/Don't Say His Name From: Sandra in Sydney Date: 30 Jan 26 - 04:45 PM from (Australian) ABC Religion & Ethics program ‘The ugly American’: Trump is uncouth and nakedly imperialistic, but we must imagine a future without him You can hear Professor O’Connor discuss Trump’s territorial ambitions and disruption of the “rules-based international order” with Waleed Aly and Scott Stephens on The Minefield. US President Donald Trump believes he should have been awarded the Nobel Peace Prize for what he (falsely) claims to be his role in “having stopped 8 wars PLUS”. But it seems he will accept Greenland as a consolation prize. That he felt personally slighted by the Nobel snub is abundantly clear from a remarkable letter he sent to Norwegian Prime Minister Jonas Gahr Støre: Considering your Country decided not to give me the Nobel Peace Prize … I no longer feel an obligation to think purely of Peace, although it will always be predominant, but can now think about what is good and proper for the United States of America. Denmark cannot protect that land from Russia or China, and why do they have a “right of ownership” anyway? … I have done more for NATO than any other person since its founding, and now, NATO should do something for the United States. The World is not secure unless we have Complete and Total Control of Greenland. When asked by reporters from The New York Times why the United States needed to “own” Greenland, he said ownership was “Psychologically important for me”. But this interest in acquiring Greenland is nothing new. He expressed it repeatedly during his first term, and told Peter Baker and Susan Glasser back in 2021: (read on) |

I am here to see Amazon’s $75m “documentary” on Melania Trump, which has already been condemned as a flop ahead of its release. |

Subject: RE: Convicted felon US Prez 47/Don't Say His Name From: Donuel Date: 31 Jan 26 - 07:41 AM I have zero interest in Melania, but I would like a peek at her pre-nup agreement. Her son Baron was probably named by Donald since he used to use the alias Baron when he did radio call-in shows in NYC. Trump doubled down on the executed Pretti, slandering him even more yesterday, while Homan promised a kinder, gentler ICE. What is happening is the same, but all before sunrise. |

They left Lutnick as a red herring. Trump is deciding who to toss overboard right now (to save his own ass). Noem or Gabbard seem to be awfully near the plank right at the moment. |

YES, Donald Trump is a dealer of petulance and poison who daily and arbitrarily chooses another target for his personal Gottendamerong. We are about to witness the metamorphosis of a twisted fanatic, poisoned by the gangrene of prejudice like an avenging angel who does not see other people having a life as real as his own. He is dedicated and fearsome in his hate that may know no bounds, and will change your life in a myriad of disgusting ways.

Subject: RE: Convicted felon US Prez 47/Don't Say His Name From: Stilly River Sage Date: 02 Feb 26 - 04:22 PM Trump Trump apparently fills his diaper during a meeting. People watching the woman in green see her trying to not respond overtly, but clearly everyone needs to empty the room in a hurry. He is not a healthy person. And more about the Melania flick, a review from The New Yorker (here's a snippet of it): “From the first seconds of ‘Melania,’ we know we’re watching a commercial: the camera swoops and glides over the luxury waterfront estate Mar-a-Lago, and then, back on the ground, a snakeskin stiletto emerges from an S.U.V. Visually, it’s slick but exceedingly mid,” Lauren Collins writes. “The director Brett Ratner cozied up to the Trumps after spending years in movie-biz exile amid multiple allegations of sexual harassment and assault. (He has denied wrongdoing.) For his comeback, he has summoned all the artistic ambition of a local Realtor who just got a drone.”
