Trump says America should change football's name so soccer can have it: 'It really doesn't make sense'
FIFA awarded President Donald Trump its inaugural Peace Prize, and Trump suggested soccer should be called football and the NFL should be renamed during the World Cup.Jackson Thompson (Fox News)
Reading the #USpol notes today, I realize we'll wake up one morning, or pick up a smartphone, or turn on the radio and it'll be over – he'll be gone.
Things won't get better right away. The rats will fight over the pieces because the next guy doesn't own the cult in the same way. It'll be like the aftermath of the French Revolution, everyone guillotining each other for not being right kind of revolutionary.
It'll still be a mess, but the planet will celebrate like it hasn't in 80yrs or so.

"Only 31% of U.S. adults now approve of how Trump is handling the economy, the poll from The Associated Press-NORC Center for Public Affairs Research finds. That is down from 40% in March and marks the lowest economic approval he’s registered in his first or second term.
Perhaps most worryingly for Trump, who’s become increasingly synonymous with his party, he’s slipped on issues that were major strengths. Just a few months ago, 53% of Americans approved of Trump’s handling of crime, but that’s fallen to 43%. There’s been a similar decline on immigration, from 49% approval in March to 38% now."

Film review: The Voice of Hind Rajab
The film "focuses on the Palestinian Red Crescent response to the desperate cellphone calls of Hind, a 6-year-old Palestinian girl, trapped by Israeli fire in Gaza in January 2024."
Hind, "along with six members of her family & two Red Crescent paramedics, eventually died in a hail of lethal IDF fire."

You can refuse to provide official ID or biometric data for social media accounts requiring age verification.
Actually, I bet if everyone did refuse, and let their account dormant for a couple of weeks, you would suddenly see American Big Tech transforming into the fiercest defender of your privacy rights, using their powerful network of lobbyists to fight these invasive government regulations.
They need you more than you need them.
Force them to work for your rights.

From the Wash Post:
"Overall, Trump — who campaigned against America’s drug crisis and promised to crack down on the illegal flow of deadly drugs coming across the border — has pardoned or granted clemency to at least 10 people for drug-related crimes since the beginning of his 2nd term, according to a Washington Post analysis. He also granted pardons or commutations to almost 90 others for drug-related crimes during the 4 years of his 1st term.
Bah humbug!
“Given Trump’s position on situations like this, he’s going to either need to fire himself or refer himself to the DOJ,” said Kathleen Engel, a Suffolk University law professor and leading expert on mortgage finance. “Trump has deemed that this type of misrepresentation is sufficient to preclude someone from serving the country.”
LoL!
As the saying goes for trump and other authoritarians - "For my friends and me - everything, for my enemies - the law."

Trump’s Own Mortgages Match His Description of Mortgage Fraud, Records Reveal
The Trump administration has argued that Fed board member Lisa Cook may have committed mortgage fraud by declaring more than one primary residence on her loans. We found Trump once did the very thing he called “deceitful and potentially criminal.”shoshana.gordon@propublica.org (ProPublica)
"In 1993, Trump signed a mortgage for a “Bermuda style” home in Palm Beach, FL, pledging that it would be his principal residence. Just 7 weeks later, he got another mortgage for a neighboring property, attesting that it too would be his principal residence.
In reality, Trump, then a New Yorker, does not appear to have ever lived in either home, let alone used them as a principal residence. Instead, they were used as investment properties and rented out."

An excellent summary from Thom Hartmann of how we got here from Franklin Roosevelt to Reagan to trump and an optimistic look at what lies ahead.
"So now Donald Trump tells our young people that it’s time to make take the next big step — to reject democracy — as the logical outcome of the Reagan Revolution.
A new, progressive America is being birthed from the ashes of the Reagan Revolution and the GOP and its billionaire owners can’t stop it much longer."

Costco is the latest business to file suit against the Trump administration for levying illegal tariffs and is seeking a refund of collected tariffs. Revlon, EssilorLuxottica, Kawasaki, Bumble Bee, and Yokohama Tire have already filed their suits.
Now *this* would be a class action lawsuit I'd really love to see. It would also be amazing if all Americans who specifically bought Canadian products could know that their money didn't end up also assisting the very policy they were protesting.
Not a lawyer, but I'd expect that if this succeeds it might open up a Pandora's box as small businesses and individuals line up to press their case. Having to process claims for that many separate tariff payers would be complicated and add some more balls in the air for an incompetent administration to juggle.
Alas, probably for these kind of reasons, the weasels of #SCOTUS will find some way to permit the 47 syndicate to avoid having to process refunds no matter how they decide.

This is an excellent thread which I can now quote-boost to add #USpol for the benefit of filters.
Many people I know still in uniform are deeply concerned about staying on the right side of international laws of warfare. Believe it or not, we spend a lot of effort to minimize unnecessary killing. That was a large part of my job in 2016-7 in the counter-ISIS fight.
This administration's approach is a a recurring slap in the face to the professional military.
