Luigi is just a symptom of a larger disease - unchecked greed and corruption.

Time and time again, throughout history, the corrupt elite tried to profit off of the suffering of the lower classes. Some held on more than others, but eventually all crooks meet their end when the people say “enough is enough”.

Luigi was just the first, and the way he’s getting maximum severity treatment while some orange nepo baby felon and his ilk roam free and get to live their best lives is being noticed.

The pressure is rising, and it’ll absolutely create more Luigis as more people are lead to utter despair. I have no sympathy for the people who contribute to this mess. They’ll eventually fall like every tyrant before them.

Maybe they should also investigate that 2016 (and onwards) intel about Russian interference and backing of far right elections…

Unless this isn’t actually about justice and holding corruption accountable, of course.

And these hats still had to be designed, manufactured and shipped.

Meaning, this wasn’t exactly done yesterday. Meaning that while Trump was publicly stating that “they want me to run for a 3rd term, but I can’t” this was likely already in the works.

Not surprising in the least, but still worth pointing out and adding to the already huge pile of bs coming from him and his suckers.

Trump the coward. The definition of ‘getting peace’ is to just make the smaller side capitulate to the bigger one. And then act surprised when said peace doesn’t hold long.

No surprises that Russia is volunteering to mediate the Iran-US conflict either. Friends always watch each other’s backs.

A mediator doesn’t take sides. It’s the most basic principle. If you’re gonna do that - taking the easiest and cowardly way - just step aside and let more competent people handle it before you make an even bigger mess. Some ‘help’ simply isn’t worth the hassle.

And Russia did not take more land for a simple reason - not because of concessions or kindness, but because the small David held their ground against the Goliath invading them. It’s that simple, nepo crybaby.

Just saw another reporting on MSNBC’s YouTube that according to Trump internal sources “they expected China to be one of the first to come begging, given the size of their exports to the US”.

1. Anyone who knows China, as a millenia-old civilization, knows they are too proud to grovel and give in to bullying. Regardless of them being right or wrong. They know suffering, they have ancient history.

2. There it is. The obvious statement some seem to miss. This is what Trump wants. He wants others to grovel at his feet, simple. Refuse to grovel, show some backbone and tell him to take a hike, and he’ll quickly backtrack in cowardice. As he did with China, with the tariffs, and everything else.

And the funniest part? They don’t even have an actual goalpost set, as they just demonstrated with Japan when they visited the US to make a deal. They want to trick those afraid into overcomprimising themselves as much as they can out of despair. “How much are you willing to give us for our blessing?”.

Bullies only attack when they think they might succeed. Show them you’re not afraid, and they shrink into their shells. Acknowledge their fake power, and they’ll only get worse with time. We might hurt in the short term, but he’s gonna endure the consequences of his stupidity in the long run.

Stand strong. Stand united. Don’t give in. And this mainly to Europe, Canada, Mexico, and all of the British Commonwealth.

This european feels exactly the same way. Let us support each other even more than before, and if the dictators want deals they’ll have to accept our terms.

We all are already suffering the consequences of being majorly dependent to an economic world power. Not excited to depend on them ever again.

Business relations? Yes, if needed and to our benefit. Dependency? Nope.

Best hope is for her to survive until this regime is toppled, how long that takes, and then seek compensation. Same for Mr. Garcia and any other wrongfully affected person.

Sadly the key here is really holding on and surviving these savages and their cult, but even in other countries, while ‘safer’ it’s still not a complete guarantee. Hopefully they do evade the fascism and find some good samaritans along the way. 🤞

Looking forward to where this goes if Europe sticks to its guns when things get ugly. Let them belittle us, let them antagonize, misdirect and make fun.

We haven’t even started pressing where it really hurts the US and its oligarchs. Which is precisely their precious digital exports we all consume and barely tax.

Never give in to bullies. Absolutely never, no matter how enticing or harmless they make it seem. Watch them repeat a Trump-China by poking the bear then sheepishly back down and say “Europe needs to make a deal with us” when it bites their behind.

Thank you for the input. Given the current US admin’s way of doing things, I have to wonder if they really see the problem in its entirety, or a crudely simplified version of it.

I mean, these are the same people who started a global trade war to get manufacturing over to the US, as if that would magically happen overnight or even with the high amount of uncertainty for business investments. It really seems to them the simplest solutions are the best ones - flip the tariff switch and done, problem solved, the US is great again after “a brief period of hurt” (whatever that specifically means), as if there weren’t a million nuances to the current workings of world global societies.

Anyways, regardless of the how’s and why’s, we can only guess what goes on on the heads of these people…

Wasn’t it always the case, though? Wasn’t he always implying that “Ukraine better be ready to lose some land” - aka we don’t know how to force Russia out of the lands it already invaded? Or how to balance the clear conflict of interests between aiding Ukraine stop an invasion and Trump’s agenda of getting the US closer to Russia as an economic ally?

Funny. The only difference I see is that he is now fully committed to make Ukraine capitulate by any means he can, perhaps in a last ditch effort to get that mineral deal since he needs it more now due to China stopping the mineral supply. Notice how he only began this ultimatum right after China stopped the minerals. Not suspicious timing at all.

In any case, better for incompetents to step away than fumbling the game even worse than they already did since taking office. Some “help” simply isn’t worth the cost. Europe and any other allies of freedom will see this through, one way or another.

Just don’t come begging for rewards or reparations once Russia’s imperialist ambitions are stopped. The US is only owed what it contributed until Biden left (and the real value, not the overinflated one), plus a nice good discount for the Trump admin’s interference and undermining Ukraine. And that’s being generous.

Trump rant about the EU existing just to screw with the US incoming. As if the fact that we don’t even properly tax the US on its digital services exports wasn’t enough.

If anything he was “rescued”, or “promoted to headquarters” if you will. Because he was too good a man for these times ahead, and sadly had been getting weaker for a while. And the world is morally poorer for his departure.

I don’t view the Vatican as the shining beacon of light it wants to be, but Pope Francis was a great Pope, who more than talking, walked the walk and lead by example. Loved by catholics and even people of other religions, as well as many atheists/agnostics. A unifying force of good.

Yet before he went he made sure his last big act was to admonish Vance and the Trump administration. Good on him.

Sure didn’t see this one coming, ironically. Before the pope had passed away I commented this on another post.

Bet the poor Pope couldn’t even attend because in addition to his health issues he must have felt the evil pressure oozing from Vance.

Welp, poor Francis. He was a good one, and difficult to replace especially in these uncertain times.

The silver lining is that he really made his last big act in life to admonish Vance, and by extension the Trump admin, about their wrongdoing. He has my gratitude for that.

Oh no, Vance got Vance’d… Lucky it wasn’t televised for the whole world to see.

Anyways, can’t wait for the snarky tantrum and projection condemning the Pope once he’s far away.

Bet the poor Pope couldn’t even attend because in addition to his health issues he must have felt the evil pressure oozing from Vance.

Bro really thought, after everyone else involved since 2014, he could just get in the room and say:

• "Hey, c’mon. Let’s just stop this. Killing is bad, peace is good. I also want Ukraine to give up all the taken territory and I want 50% of Ukraine’s minerals in perpetuity, in exchange for nothing.

• “And then everyone clapped, and the war ended for good, just like that, with everyone happy. Zelensky hugged Putin, both kissed Trump’s ring, and they shared some champagne overlooking the beautiful US Gaza Trumpland sunset, surrounded by AI bearded ladies”.

• The End.

Children raised on silver spoons often expect others to simply obey them, no questions asked.

Slow clap. He really managed to come in when Ukraine had the upper hand with allied help, weakened their efforts by humiliating, extorting and cutting off aid and intel, as well as making them lose their bargaining chip in Kursk, and now they just say “this is too much after all” and bail out.

Just to show up again at the end to claim victory after Europe and any other allies have seen this through. Mark my words.

I get to be the favorite of pretty much all the family pets. Always been.

Some family and friends joke that I probably could go to an African safari and the lions wouldn’t harm me. Not really rushing to find out if it’s true tho.
