Nobody else does either, and a month from now you won't ever think about whatever it is that's got sand in your vagina today.
US President Donald Trump has said he will halt all trade negotiations with Canada immediately over an advert in which his predecessor Ronald Reagan says tariffs "hurt every American".
The ad, sponsored by Canada's province of Ontario and released last week, features excerpts of an address Reagan gave in 1987 focusing on foreign trade.
Trump called the advert "FAKE" while The Ronald Reagan Foundation said it "misrepresents" the former president's address.
Below is a comparison of the advert and the original address.
Here is what Trumptards can't comprehend in a one-minute commercial: https://www.bbc.com/news/articles/clyz1e201r8o

Trump’s $230 Million DOJ Shakedown Has One Absurd Twist
Trump filed claims insisting that he deserved this taxpayer-funded windfall because he’d been "persecuted" by various federal investigations.
By Dahlia Lithwick and Mark Joseph Stern | Oct 24, 2025 2:50 PM
https://slate.com/news-and-politics/2025/10/trump-doj-shakedown-230-mi
llion-dollars-explained.html
President Donald Trump has profited off his second term to an unprecedented degree, making hundreds of millions of dollars through a variety of financial schemes, kickbacks, and shady business deals with his allies and acolytes. But he currently stands poised to cut out the middlemen and collect $230 million directly from his own government. Before returning to the White House, Trump filed claims insisting that he deserved this taxpayer-funded windfall because he’d been persecuted by various federal investigations, including the Russia probe, the Mar-a-Lago search, and the classified-documents prosecution. On Tuesday, he indicated that the government would hand him the money, while claiming (dubiously) that he’d donate it “to charity or something.”
On this week’s Slate Plus bonus episode of Amicus, co-hosts Dahlia Lithwick and Mark Joseph Stern talked through Trump’s outrageous demand—and its surprising, ironic implications for many actual victims of his own administration’s legal abuses. A preview of their conversation, below, has been edited for length and clarity.
Dahlia Lithwick: Before we leap into the many layers of gross here, can you explain how it is that Trump thinks he is entitled to have the taxpayers fund this small fortune for him?
Mark Joseph Stern: Trump has filed a claim under the Federal Tort Claims Act, which—in theory—allows victims of certain official misconduct to collect damages from the government. Not directly from the individual who violated their rights, but essentially as a government payout. Trump is arguing that these investigations were, in fact, violations of his rights, specifically under Florida law. He alleges that his rights against “intrusion upon seclusion” and “malicious prosecution” were violated, which is pretty rich. So he is demanding, cumulatively, almost a quarter of a billion dollars in payouts—from his own Justice Department.
The reason he’s able to do so is that under the FTCA, you don’t go straight to court; you have to file an administrative claim first, and the government gets the first crack at either paying it out or saying no. Most of the time, it says no. But right now, the people in charge of deciding whether to pay Trump’s complaint are Deputy Attorney General Todd Blanche, who represented Trump in his hush money trial, and Associate Attorney General Stanley Woodward, who represented Trump’s co-defendant in the classified documents prosecution. So the guys who will decide whether Trump gets this quarter of a billion dollars are the guys who were appointed because of their loyalty to Trump and for their legal defense of him and his co-defendants during some prosecutions that he now argues were blatantly illegal.
It would be kind of funny if it weren’t so appalling. Because if he gets this payout, it’ll be one of the largest in history. And he will have inverted the FTCA not to compensate him for legitimate injuries that the government inflicted, but to enrich himself because his own government thinks he deserves even more cash.
Let’s stick with that for a minute, because the New York Times had a really good piece this week on that topic. The huge majority of people who seek compensation for official misconduct will never, in their lifetimes, see a dime.
The problem is that the FTCA has a massive escape hatch known as the “discretionary function exception.” The premise is that you can sue a government agent for acting negligently on the job, but you can’t sue a government agent because they were devising, implementing, or following an official policy of the government. So, for instance, if you get hit by a park ranger driving a Jeep ne

Bodies wash ashore in Trinidad after U.S. strikes
October 23, 2025
https://attentiontotheunseen.com/2025/10/23/bodies-wash-ashore-in-trin
idad-after-u-s-strikes/
The first body washed ashore on Trinidad’s northeastern coast soon after the United States carried out its first strike in September on a boat in the Caribbean. Villagers said the corpse had burn marks on its face and was missing limbs, as if it had been mangled by an explosion.
The tides deposited another corpse on a nearby beach days later, drawing a wake of vultures. Its face was similarly unrecognizable, and its right leg appeared to have been blown off.
The bodies have fueled a mystery that is gripping parts of Trinidad and Tobago, the Caribbean nation that is within sight of Venezuela’s coast: Who were they? Did a U.S. strike kill them? Will more bodies appear on Trinidad’s beaches?
The intrigue lays bare how the fallout from the U.S. military campaign targeting Venezuela has reached Trinidad. In contrast to other Caribbean leaders, Trinidad’s prime minister, Kamla Persad-Bissessar, is explicitly supporting the strikes on boats that U.S. officials say are carrying drugs.
But as the attacks draw claims in Latin America that the United States is violating international law by killing dozens of people who don’t pose an immediate military threat, some in Trinidad are questioning whether Ms. Persad-Bissessar’s hesitance to cross the Trump administration is keeping them from getting answers about the corpses being stored by their government.
“There’s no question in my mind that these men are casualties of war,” said Lincoln Baker, 63, an employee of Trinidad’s water and sewage company in Cumana.
Like many others in Cumana, a sleepy outpost with an Anglican school, food stores and Christian and Muslim houses of worship, Mr. Baker said he was convinced that the two corpses came from the first attack, on Sept. 2, that left 11 people dead.
Since then, the bodies have emerged as part of the puzzle involving the U.S. military deployment in the region. The Trump administration publicly says the mission is to combat drug trafficking out of Venezuela, which is a relatively minor player in the global drug trade compared to Colombia, Mexico, Bolivia or Peru.
But American officials have privately made clear that the objective is to drive President Nicolás Maduro of Venezuela from power. The campaign has led to the largest U.S. deployment in Latin America in decades, and it has expanded from the Caribbean to the Pacific Ocean, with the official death toll from the strikes standing at 37.
Trinidad and Tobago, with about 1.5 million people, has faced various ramifications from the U.S. campaign, including attacks that may have killed its own citizens and heightened tensions with Venezuela.
Separately from the unidentified corpses, the authorities are investigating reports that two Trinidadians were among those killed in a U.S. strike this month. Relatives of the men, identified as Chad Joseph and Rishi Samaroo, have disputed claims that they were involved in drug trafficking.
Condemnation of the attacks is spreading, based on the assessment of legal specialists and independent United Nations experts that it is illegal for militaries to target in international waters civilians who do not pose an imminent threat.
Colombia’s president, Gustavo Petro, over the weekend accused the United States of murdering a Colombian fisherman in an attack on a boat that the American authorities claimed had been carrying drugs. President Trump responded by halting aid to Colombia and saying that Mr. Petro, a leftist, had a “fresh mouth toward America.”

Trump deploys aircraft carrier strike group to South America amid Venezuela tensions
https://www.usatoday.com/story/news/politics/2025/10/24/us-aircraft-ca
rrier-deploying-south-america-venezuela-tensions/86878837007/
Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth deployed a U.S. nuclear-powered aircraft carrier and its complement of guided missile destroyers to the South American coast Friday, according to his top spokesperson.
The Ford and its accompanying destroyers — the USS Winston Churchill, the USS Bainbridge, and the USS Mahan — have spent the past few weeks in the Mediterranean Sea, according to the U.S. Naval Institute's fleet tracker. They will join at least eight Navy ships, thousands of Marines, special operations forces, and the land-based fighter jets already deployed to the Caribbean.
Carrier strike groups represent the pinnacle of U.S. seapower. The Ford carries four squadrons, each with 10 to 14 F/A-18 fighter jets capable of bombing targets hundreds of miles inland from the ship. The three Arleigh Burke-class destroyers each can carry more than 90 Tomahawk guided cruise missiles, though it's unclear how many are loaded aboard the strike group destroyers or aboard the three Burke-class destroyers already in the Caribbean.
Sean Parnell, who is Hegseth's assistant defense secretary for public affairs, announced that the USS Gerald R. Ford, its on-board warplanes, and the other ships in its strike group are deploying to "dismantle Transnational Criminal Organizations ... and counter narco-terrorism" in the region.
In recent months, President Donald Trump's administration has destroyed at least 10 suspected drug boats off the coasts of Venezuela and Colombia. The deployment of a carrier strike group represents a significant escalation in that campaign and could foreshadow the beginning of airstrikes against targets in Venezuela. U.S. officials have accused Venezuela's leadership and President Nicolas Maduro of running drug cartels and facilitating mass migration towards the U.S. southern border.
Trump also recently authorized CIA operations on land in Venezuela. Air Force bombers have flown near Venezuela twice in recent days as well.
Faced with the prospect of being overthrown or killed, Maduro has alternated between pleading for peace and warning the United States about his country's defense capabilities. According to The War Zone, the Venezuelan military has small numbers of modern anti-ship missiles and long-range anti-aircraft missiles, in addition to a large supply of portable Igla-S anti-air missiles that Maduro said are scattered throughout the country.
The counter-drug campaign, which legal experts argue could violate the law, has faced criticism from regional leaders such as Colombia's President Gustavo Petro. The admiral who leads U.S. Southern Command and oversees the campaign, Adm. Alvin Holsey, abruptly announced his early retirement on Oct. 16.
A bipartisan group of U.S. senators introduced a war powers resolution recently that seeks to restrain the Trump administration from conducting attacks on Venezuelan land; it is yet to receive a Senate vote. A previous vote seeking to block the boat attacks failed 48 to 51.

I for one think the Epstein Ballroom will be magnificent. I love the decor theme of "what if Uday Hussein ran a Ramada Inn." And giving it a theme song everyone will associate with it is a stroke of brilliance! "Thank Heaven for Little Girls" is very catchy.
It is very French Revolution to build a golden ballroom while people can't afford groceries and health insurance.
Just remember that the Epstein Ballroom is brought to you by all of the mega-corps and billionaires who have now stepped in line in order to take advantage of the American citizenry. They know they can bribe Trump for favors, so they're doing just that.
