Hey @CNN: everything about this piece must be changed immediately. You give the impression DOJ has reopened a probe into *Clinton*—when Barr's lackeys confirmed the FBI was *right* to close that case. *This* is a probe into how the *FBI* handled that case. cnn.com/2020/09/24/pol…
PS/ Given that the fraudulent reopening of the Clinton case in October 2016—compelled by illegal extortionate threats by Trump's agents—swung the 2016 election, how dare CNN leave the impression, via image and text, *weeks before the 2020 vote*, that Clinton is under probe again?
PS2/ Here's the first paragraph of Chapter 6 of PROOF OF CORRUPTION. Anyone can readily confirm that John Huber found *nothing* amiss at the Clinton Foundation. If Barr wants to investigate how the FBI handled that case, OK. It has *nothing* to do with Clinton. Shame on you, CNN. Image
PS3/ Look at the headline: "Prosecutor tapped by Barr to investigate Russia probe is now looking into Clinton Foundation." CNN and the NYT just ran a political commercial for Trump that'll amp up his voters, as now they *wrongly* think the Clinton Foundation is under probe again.
PS4/ Instead of just reporting the news—"Barr Asks Durham to Compare Clinton and Trump Probes for Signs of Bias, Despite Prior Finding By DOJ IG Horowitz That No Such Bias Existed"—@CNN and @nytimes have falsely implied there are new facts to probe in the Clinton Foundation case.
PS5/ If you doubt what a solid CNN/the NYT just did for Trump *when they should be reporting on the Trump coup plot*, imagine the political impact it would've had if Barr had announced "We're investigating Clinton!" But he wouldn't have dared. CNN/the NYT just gave that to Trump.
PS6/ I'm so angry right now. John Huber—*under Barr*—*cleared* the Clinton Foundation. Want to know the first time Huber's name appears in the @nytimes article on Barr having Durham probe *FBI* actions in that case? *The second-to-last paragraph*. This is *terrible* journalism.
PS7/ Now "Clinton Foundation" is trending, everyone *wrongly* thinks Clinton is under investigation again, it's weeks before the 2020 election, these same errors cost Democrats the 2016 election, #TrumpCoupPlot should be everywhere and isn't, and all because the *NYT screwed up*.
PS8/ Meanwhile, anyone who read Proof of Corruption is—once again—ahead of the news, as readers of the Proof series *know* John Huber looked at the Clinton Foundation for years and found *nothing*. Want to know who wants this topic back in the news? You guessed it: the Kremlin.
PS9/ The Kremlin spent years spreading conspiracy theories about the Clinton Foundation, but after Sessions and Barr lackey Huber found *nothing*, the Kremlin thought that gambit was over. But NYT, CNN, and others just did Putin a solid by falsely reporting the issue an open one.
PS10/ All this on a day when the *only* news focused on should have been that Trump is plotting a coup of our government if he loses the election. Instead, we get "trending" what is effectively a Trump-Kremlin infomercial for Trump's re-election. Again: I am *so* angry right now.

Okay, I found the video. Here is Elon Musk unambiguously flashing the White Power sign on SNL to see if he could get away with it, exactly like he did with his Nazi salute this January.
You can see Musk delivers a line not on the prompter—"Call me the DOGE-father"—which generates laughs from those in his audience part of his 4chan fanbase, and it’s then he 1) flashes the OK symbol—a 4chan game—after which he 2) _reverses his hands_ to flash the White Power sign.
This is 100% a PoS who thinks he can get away with anything using a national stage to send neo-Nazi code to fans under circumstances in which he planned in advance to deny the obvious. Just like in January, he’s such an arrogant bigot he does his gesture _twice_ to make it clear.

As Donald Trump leads America down the path to becoming a failed state, we have lost 24/7 weather services in parts of the country. Along with massive deterioration in Social Security services caused by Musk, American decline at the hands of billionaires couldn't be more stark. Image
Some of us have understood a long time that billionaires are weird, venal, antisocial, detached, often sociopathic creatures who can't be trusted to care about the nations that made them, let alone average citizens.

And some of us blindly worship these creatures.

Which are you?
Even in an ardently capitalistic market, no one becomes a billionaire without gaming the system in ways anyone with a conscience deems disgusting.

It's not a sign of a healthy free market when billionaires are created, it's a sign of a broken system.

Get that and you get a lot.

I wonder how many Americans realize that Bribery is one of just two impeachable offenses specifically enumerated in the U.S. Constitution and the case that Donald Trump has now committed that crime dozens of times in his second term is a legal slam dunk.

So shall we get started?
To be very clear, I'm not saying that there is a single federal elected official within the Republican Party who believes in this country or cares about this country or honors our rule of law and would vote to impeach.

I am saying that fact must be the national conversation now.
The case for impeachment is not academic, hypothetical, partisan, opaque, obscure, confusing, highly technical, or any other adjective denoting a distance from the lived reality of every American.

President Donald Trump has openly committed Bribery, and we all watched him do it.

(📢) BREAKING NEWS: Donald Trump and Elon Musk Friend/Ally Vladimir Putin Has Eyes, Brain, and Larynx Ripped Out of Captured and Tortured Ukrainian Journalist; MAGA Hero Putin Returns Journalist's Body in Condition Almost Impossible to Identify As Female theguardian.com/world/2025/apr…
Journalists must stop playing games with American fascism.

The Trump Administration is a congregation of monsters, and it seeks to appeal to a voting base that is either already wholly monstrous or getting there.

If you cannot see what's happening in America, *quit journalism*.
Putin is the closest thing Earth has to a demon. The fact that Donald Trump and all of his aides, allies, agents, associates, attorneys and advisors, including and perhaps most especially Elon Musk, have tried to suck up to him despite knowing what he is tells us what *they* are.

(📢) COMMUNITY NOTE: The human population is growing—rapidly. It's projected to keep growing for many decades, until at least 2100. Then it will decline slightly, per experts, but to a level still far beyond now. What Musk MEANS but refuses to SAY is WHITE fertility is declining. Image
Let me be much clearer: anyone who says they are worried about the human population declining is a white supremacist.

The only basis anyone could have for being worried about birth rates would be a bigoted fear of non-white persons significantly outnumbering whites.

Full stop.
But even if we just look at the population of Europe, it's absolutely *exploded* since 1950—despite the fact that at two points in the last 75 years it declined.

This suggests that even if or as it declines significantly between now and 2100, it's just returning to those levels.
