The Democratic Party Must Stop Their Alliance with the Revolutionaries
For a moment I thought you had nothing to back your claim up up. But now that you've posted "Well I reckon we will see the evidence soon", that changes everything.

What has that got to do with my critique of you getting it absolutely wrong.

I deny it. The evidence you offer is paltry. It's the same kind of mentality that claims it if George Soros' organization gives a bit of money to some group that makes them tools of George Soros.

China’s ill-fated gambit to dethrone the dollar
Becoming the world’s reserve currency would come with costs China is unwilling to bear. The biggest is making the renminbi freely convertible. China’s central bank tightly controls the value of the yuan, and the government strictly limits the amount of renminbi allowed to leave the country. It would also require more transparency and predictability around rulemaking and market interventions. That’s anathema to Xi. https://archive.ph/VgEwv According to the editorial, only 2% of the world's currency reserves consist of the Renminbi vs 57% for the dollar. The Euro constitutes about 20%.

Trump Administration Goes After Library & Museums in Political Attack
Grant Guidelines for Libraries and Museums Take “Chilling” Political Turn Under Trump The Institute of Museum and Library Services is now accepting applications for its 2026 grant cycle. But this time, it has unusually specific criteria. In cover letters accompanying the applications, the institute said it “particularly welcomes” projects that align with President Donald Trump’s vision for America. These would include those that foster an appreciation for the country “through uplifting and positive narratives,” the agency writes, citing an executive order that attacks the Smithsonian Institution for its “divisive, race-centered ideology.” (Trump has said the museum focused too much on “how bad slavery was.”) The agency also points to an executive order calling for the end of “the anti-Christian weaponization of government” and one titled Making Federal Architecture Beautiful Again. https://www.propublica.org/article/institute-of-museum-and-library-services-grant-guidelines-donald-trump More hypocrisy from the Trump administration.

So you claim that because some socialist/activist groups as you call them participated in the protests, therefore these protests were organized by them?

The Epstein Files Taking Down Euros, Not Americans
Asserting that it is so, doesn't make it so. Provide some evidence. And this from Donald Trump to Epstein is a public relations coup? t https://archive.ph/Bwq64

Democracy Died in Darkness -- R.I.P. Washington Post
Pretty foolish article to cite. The reason the Washington Post reversed itself on its editorial policy was because of one person: Jeff Bezos. The Post is chump change to him. Angering Donald Trump is an altogether riskier proposition.

But if he does, there isn't any evidence in the article that save the frogs cited that will back this up. Quite the contrary, in fact.

The Epstein Files Taking Down Euros, Not Americans
What victories in the court of criminal justice have there been against the the so-called Deep State? Where is the incriminating flood of names of Democrats that you predicted would flow from the release of the Epstein files? If you write comments that I think are tendentious or worse, I'm going to go after them. The same as I would anybody else. I will say that your comments tend to be so flagrantly wrong that they practically beseech rebuttal. In other words, get over yourself.

Trump’s Prescription Drug Website Exposed as a Big Fat Scam
Actually, you've got it pretty close to exactly wrong: “The administration is not actively discussing imposing Section 232 tariffs against generic pharmaceuticals,” White House spokesman Kush Desai said in a statement. A spokesman for the Commerce Department, which is handling the tariff investigation, similarly said that the 232 investigation wouldn’t result in tariffs on generics. The move, which isn’t final and could change in the coming weeks, comes after months of debate within the administration over how to bring manufacturing of generic drugs back to the U.S. and what role tariffs should play in that effort. While Trump has targeted name-brand drugs in tariff threats, he has made few recent statements on generics—the antibiotics, heart medications and other commonplace drugs that make up about 90% of medicines dispensed to Americans every day but are largely sourced from outside the country. The decision not to impose tariffs on generics represents a major scaling-back of the scope of the Commerce Department’s tariff investigation into pharmaceuticals. When the pharmaceutical tariff probe was announced in April, the Federal Register notice specified that the investigation would target “both finished generic and non-generic drug products,” as well as drug ingredients. https://archive.ph/IXdnU

The Epstein Files Taking Down Euros, Not Americans
Well, if he hasn't been questioned by the FBI or the DOJ under Trump, after Trump being in office a year, maybe that should tell you that they've they've got nothing? You seem doomed to eternal disappointment as to the outcome of various proceedings both from the legislative and executive branches of government.

Trump’s Prescription Drug Website Exposed as a Big Fat Scam
Asserting something is relevant instead of explaining why it is relevant is empty. And crossing out a few words is just childish. Clearly, you have no rational explanation to offer as to why getting a prescription filled in the USA is somehow relevant to Trump's website ignoring providers of generic drugs.

The Epstein Files Taking Down Euros, Not Americans
You mean the committee has signaled that they are going to be questioning Bill Clinton about his alleged escapades with a young woman in a hot tub? That they are going to develop evidence that the Justice Dept is unable to? Actually, given the decline in quality of the staff at DOJ, that might be the case. But that's setting a very low bar.
-
Trump’s Prescription Drug Website Exposed as a Big Fat Scam
Lack of knowledge about a subject that is irrelevant. What does someone's personal experience have to do with the issue of the Trump website steering people away from generic pharmaceutical companies? You have yet to come up with a cogent explanation.

You've been claiming for quite a while that the full release of the Epstein files was going to be a disaster for the Democrats including Bill Clinton. How has that worked out?

Trump’s Prescription Drug Website Exposed as a Big Fat Scam
Yes, personal. You made an issue out of the utterly irrelevant fact of whether or not someone has ever filled a prescription in the USA. What does that have to do with the Trump websites ignoring generics? So, because there may currently be no generic replacements for Wegovy or Ozempic, does that mean that there are no generic replacements for any major pharmaceuticals? You want to run with that? Genuine efforts yes. Empty public relations stunts, not so much.
-
Trump’s Prescription Drug Website Exposed as a Big Fat Scam
Once again, trying to make it personal. This is a public issue. The report clearly states that the Trump website ignores generic drug producers where the prices are often lower. Why is that so hard for you to understand? What does getting your own prescription filled have to do with that?

Trump’s Prescription Drug Website Exposed as a Big Fat Scam
TrumpRx, the website launched by the Trump administration Thursday to sell discounted prescription drugs directly to consumers, is offering a whole lot less than advertised. The drugs offered on the site are all from brand-name manufacturers, making them more expensive than generic brands. Almost all of the drugs are also covered through insurance already. https://newrepublic.com/post/206265/trump-prescription-drug-website-trumprx-scam

Yes, Trump and his maga cult are indeed a fascist movement
False: "A video posted online by US President Donald Trump that included a clip depicting former US President Barack Obama and his wife Michelle as apes has been deleted after it drew criticism for being racist. Trump posted the video on Thursday night, using it to insist irregularities occurred in past elections. The video contained imagery that lasted for roughly one second showing the faces of the Obamas attached to bodies of animals such as gorillas or orangutans." https://www3.nhk.or.jp/nhkworld/en/news/20260207_08/

And to get back to the issue of fascism, if you believe what you've written under your avatar, then you certainly haven't disqualified yourself from being correctly labelled a fascist.

You got it absolutely wrong about what SunnyinBangrak said that I originally objected to, and now you're deflecting. Give it up already.

Deflecting much? You said that Obama in a suit in front of some foliage resembles a gorilla. You have to be one hell of a bigot to see that. I asked AI to make an image of a gorilla in a suit seated on a chair wearing similar clothing and in a somewhat similar pose and with foliage as a background. I don't see the resemblance at all.
