BREAKING: Research Shows Trump, Trump Family and Trump Surrogates Have Used Term “Bloodbath” for Years—Always to Mean Violence or Mass Electoral Defeat, Never Financial Crisis (Which Trump Says the US Is Already In, So He’d Never Posit It As a Hypothetical Future Outcome, Anyway)

(PS) Trump wasn’t discussing electoral defeat—as he said (twice) that harm to the auto industry would be “the least of” America’s worries if he lost, as it would be a “bloodbath” for the “whole country”—leaving us with only the possibility of a *regular* Trump topic: violence.

(🚨) For those just finding out that MOSCOW and MUSK’s favorite 2024 presidential candidate, RFK JR., will select NICOLE SHANAHAN as his VP, please do NOT look up either the relationship history of this VP pick or the birthplace of (up until last year) her husband.

I hate 2024. Image (PS) Okay, but only because you asked so nicely. timesnownews.com/world/us/us-ne…

I’ve seen enough—I’m calling it.

@ElonMusk exhibits well below-average logic, data-analysis, reading comprehension and information-literacy skills.

He falls far short of a high school freshman in these respects.

I say this is a longtime comms professor. deadline.com/2024/03/don-le… To survive in today’s media landscape you must know how to gauge the reliability of a source, the utility of different data framings, the correct time to rely on an anecdote and the time to seek a large data-set. You must be willing to downgrade a source for anonymity and bias.

Image 1/ This report is novella-length. It’s not something I can summarize on social media—as it crosses continents and decades, has a large cast (almost all of whom you know), and constitutes a *fully sourced* investigation into what America faces the likes of which you’ve never seen.

(🔐) MAJOR BREAKING NEWS: The New Questions Federal Investigators Must Ask on An Emergency Basis About Trump’s Eleventh-Hour Bond Proposal—Whose Apparent Kremlin Connections Increase By the Hour

🔗:

Please read this and share it as widely as you’re able. sethabramson.substack.com/p/breaking-new…
Image 1/ Please don’t ask me why major media ignores that the family that agreed to save Trump from ruin at the 11th hour is one mentioned in every federal report on Trump-Russia collusion, one who a close associate of works for the Kremlin and is named 134 times in the Mueller Report.

America is now in the midst of a national security emergency. Congress must launch an *immediate* investigation. sethabramson.substack.com/p/major-breaki…
Image (PS) This is the biggest news in the United States right now. Anyone who reads this article will understand that I’m not exaggerating when I say as a journalist that America is now in the midst of a national security crisis. We are now right back where we were in 2016.

It’s bad.

(SUPER TUESDAY UPDATE) Here’s how Nikki Haley has fared in the states the GOP *cares about* with respect to the November general election (that have voted so far).

CO: 33.4%
ME: 26.2%
MI: 26.6%
MN: 29.1%
NC: 23.4%
NH: 43.2%
NV: 30.4%
UT: 32.8%
VA: 34.8%

Very bad news for Trump. Image (PS) The focus from American corporate media tonight was on how Haley has done in states that will be non-competitive in November (though, oddly, very little coverage was given to Haley winning blue state Vermont, and only a modest amount to her winning the District of Columbia).

NBC reported that the order was $16,000; was intended as a celebration of Black History Month; and caused the bakery to give up many other potential contracts.

Musk paid the bakery $2,000 for Tesla’s screwup.

Lucky Musk—media reported that as a kindness. businessinsider.com/elon-musk-pays… Keep in mind this was Tesla contracting for $16,000 of work by a Black-owned business in celebration of Black History Month; canceling the order; then paying $2,000 to “make it right.” Media did Musk a solid by calling it generosity *and* by not asking why the order was canceled.

(🔐) BREAKING NEWS: Top Trump Foreign Policy Adviser Says U.S. Must Move to Recolonize Africa Because Africans “Can’t Govern Themselves”

This is terrifying. Yet we have to listen to Prince’s madness because he’s advising Trump and Trump is listening. sethabramson.substack.com/p/breaking-new…
Image 1/ This PROOF report is much more than a summary of a plan being outlined by a longtime Trump national security and foreign policy adviser—the man who brought America to within 10 minutes of a hot war with Iran in early 2020 as a way of serving his *other* boss (MBZ of the UAE).

Trump is under the worst financial stress he’s faced this century—and he’s sold our foreign policy before. sethabramson.substack.com/p/last-months-…
Image (PS) Trump faced no financial difficulties in 2015 and nevertheless spent 18 months selling U.S. foreign policy to Russia, Saudi Arabia, and the UAE in exchange for some golf courses and two letters of intent to build a Trump Tower Moscow. What do you think he’ll do now?

Musk—and Twitter’s other neo-Nazis—are data-illiterate and politically clueless, so without accepting their data as real I’ve fixed their chart *given that new policies take 120 days to kick in*. See Obama’s successes; Trump’s failures; and Biden’s zero-net through mid-July 2023. Image Assuming any of this data is real; and assuming we should care about encounters at all given that many do not result in an immigrant remaining here; we can see that Biden’s immigration policies *could not be the issue right now* because he had two net-zero years though this July.

(📢) If anyone here is also on Threads, could you let Adam Mosseri know that despite him saying he would look into my situation I’ve just been suspended from that platform for the third time in 7 days without any explanation or any way to reach him. Can’t access IG or Threads. (📢) It’d be irresponsible for me to do anything but put a pause on my recommendation that people use Threads. My repeated recommendations on this subject have been seen by millions—literally—but I don’t know what to do about a platform that randomly suspends folks for no reason.

What’s your favorite part of the Cybertruck?

The loose seams? The easily dented, hard-to-repair body? The lack of storage space? That it looks like a garbage disposal? The blindspots? Fears the hood will fly up? Its ugliness? Lies about the glass?

That it may never be released? Image My favorite aspect of the Cybertruck *has* to be that it has the worst seams I’ve ever seen on any vehicle intended for consumer use on actual roadways.

Putting aside the waviness of the sheets that make up the car—that’s bad enough—it seems they *literally don’t fit together*. Image

(📢) FREE at PROOF: From Start to Finish, Media Got the Tragic al-Ahli Blast Exactly Right. It Now Looks Like the Munition That Hit the Hospital in Gaza— Causing a Massacre—Indeed Came From Israel.

This 75-page report cites only major-media sources.

Image 1/ After the horrific events of October 7, Benjamin Netanyahu urged the world to look at mass-casualty events through the lens of the size of the population the events had happened to. With that in mind, he called Hamas’s war crimes on October 7 the equivalent of “20 9/11s.”

(📢) I want to be clear: it’s entirely possible that Hamas set off bombs on the Gaza evacuation route the IDF told Gazans to take. Hamas is a terrorist organization that does not value human life and it would certainly be willing to do this. But this reporting remains unaffected: Image (📢) This alleged Hamas bomb may be exactly that. It’s *not* the airstrike CNN showed onair at 3AM that I and millions of others worldwide saw.

That strike came from the air and hit on or just off one of the two main roads the IDF had told Gazans to take.

(📢) Twitter is dead. It seems everyone is on Threads now. I find myself coming here less and less. Threads has added features and is getting very good. You never encounter Zuck or bots—ever—and trolls are dealt with. It’s 1000% better than here.

Join us! Threads.net/seth.abramson A good example is that when Charlie Kirk showed up spewing vile bullshit to try to get a rise out of folks everyone just blocked him en masse. Every day more top journalists arrive; the vibe is early/mid-Twitter. I’m encountering no Nazis and—best of all—there’s no Musk bullshit.
