Hi I’m Tim.
I’m AuDHD - officially diagnosed ADHD and self-diagnosed (for now) with ASD. I also suffer from a great deal of Imposter Syndrome.
Wonder how much more pro-Trump PAC/dark money pours in to try and save him last minute. Trump’s supporters are literally paying for his campaign to run interference in November by drawing enough from Biden to eek out a win (or close enough to start another resurrection that goes all the way this time because Republicans will open the doors).
If all these “religious” institutions/people want to stop following the law, start taxing them at least. At this point they are a tax free cult that can control a woman’s medical options, instead of their Dr. (who has a medical license, and pays taxes, and contributes to society).
This much power over people, tax free, is for the rich!
Sinclair is another group out to muddy the waters and report “both sides” nonsense instead of actual news. Just watch the 2 instances now where they had every channel in harmony read straight propaganda like it was news. Watching them back with all the feeds synced up is wild and disturbing. I know the first time they actually lost broadcasters because they didn’t want to read propaganda like a robot to their audience.
The media has done “both sides” with everything he says out of this weird fear that the people that are now part of a cult and will easily question reality, might accuse them of being political. I think them (the media) always white washing Trump’s actions and word salad has 100% enabled him to make it this far.
Edit - s/fair/fear
Agreed with what you are saying, but my point was that the media as a whole has to stop writing headlines/articles like his base is going to:
The media’s constant crusade to “both sides” every story is a disservice to the facts, and down plays and white washes the facts for everyone. Calling it just a “hush money” trial is a way to downplay the fact that it was actually Trump’s way to hide a damaging story when he was running for office. And the crime was the way he hid the payment so that it wouldn’t look like it was being done on behalf of his campaign, while breaking Federal tax laws making Cohen’s reimbursement look like income. It was also a crime allowing the National Enquirer to pay to catch-and-kill stories for the campaign as illegal campaign contributions (as they were above legal contribution limits, and were unreported).
So yes it was fraud, and it was fraud against the American people, in the form of voter manipulation, and tax evasion.
I wish the press wasn’t so afraid to write Election Interference in their headline. That is what that case was about, that is what made it a felony. Calling it the “Hush Money” trial is trying to “both sides” his coverage.
The post sounds more like a limitation on negative press than a limit on poor sources. Might be a better idea to just temp-ban politics all together till after November, then nobody needs to try and interpret this post that doesn’t seem to align with what is being agreed with in comments.
Trying to make the news “fair and balanced” or “both sides” sounds like a great way to enable fascism. If a candidate is going to continuely do/say things that are going to have a large impact on the country, then reporting on that should absolutely be shared without fear of a ban just because the “other side” hasn’t done enough negative to write about.
I understand not wanting to be filled with shit posting, but legit news sources should be the goal, not trying to balance reporting which IMHO sounds more like election interference.
This whole timeline is bad! Abort! Abort!
He’s shown you who he is, I think we need to start believing him. He has also surrounded himself with even more unhinged and dangerous people this time around. They have a plan this time to keep power and end elections. Putting your head in the sand doesn’t make him and his cult any less of a threat, and plays right into their playbook. They want you to become disengaged, to burn out, to think he is “just joking”, or just “telling it how he sees it”, or worst of all “the new normal”. These all leave his cult emboldened and with less resistance to grabbing power.
I saw an article earlier today speculating that the iOS emulator might have raised the awareness drawing the eye of Nintendo, Sega, and others.
I know I’m feeding a troll, but US democracy is on the ballot this year. Previous years have been big years, but this could be the last election in the US. Trump getting to the White House will allow him to save himself, and he will be bringing Fascism to a whole new level in the US with Project 2025 and all the truly evil folks in his cult leadership circle.
I think they will get a percentage of the “never Trump” section of the Republican party. The real question is what that percentage of the Republican party actually is, as admitting that currently can open people’s worlds to a deluge of toxicity/ostracizing.
More than that, they unprecedentedly arranged with his lawyers to pick a date/time that NONE of his family, let alone himself, were even in Florida! This is 100% intimidation of law enforcement in retaliation for the justice system FINALLY trying to hold him to account for his lifetime of crime.
I wonder what the GOP take on Hunter’s trial is going to be? I’m going to go out on a limb and say, if convicted they will praise it, while at the same time saying Biden has the DOJ weaponized against Trump. If Trump’s DOJ hadn’t shut down all investigations into his crimes I’m sure his Federal ones would have started while he was still in office. He also wouldn’t have had to rush to announce his running to make his cases “political” even though nothing states he can’t be held accountable and campaign at the same time. Running alone shouldn’t be treated as some shield to prosecution as it is due to everyone afraid of looking “political” and feeding right into the crazy arguments from criminals.

This unlocks the secret 30 license copy.
Troupis @ 70 yrs old doing crime could mean his last days could be in a cell if he were to get the full 6 yrs possible. That kind of blind loyalty to Trump that has zero F’s for this man just shows how sad it is to be a member of a cult.
I had read in the past that Trump also believes that the bodies energy can be “used up” like a battery and is one of his many reasons he never does physical activity.
I think a majority of this depends on the market. I have seen 4 houses sold on my street in the past 2 months. And 3 of those were in May, and the 4th was April but is being flipped I think and back on the market with a higher price (more inline with the current area - and to recoup renovation costs).
OK, so my pennies, which amount to a rounding error, are making it so someone else can get their head above water? What is the bad/scary/dictator part?? They are so afraid of education, as the second you can do critical thinking their whole fear mongering platform of lies falls apart.
