These included scathing early 1990s Vanity
Fair profiles in which twelve-year-old Donald
Trump Jr. told a reporter that Trump did not
love him, did not love himself, but only loved
his money; to the 1993 book Lost Tycoon by
Harry Hurt III, which declared that Trump did
not know how to have sex with women and
describes Ivana purchasing a book on female
orgasms and announcing "I have to give this
to The Donald; he can never find the spots."
From the start of the marriage, their terrible
sex life, wrote Hurt, had sent Trump running
back to Roy Cohn, who was forced to write a
new prenup to placate the sexually unsatisfied
Ivana. Hurt's book paints a disturbing picture
of Trump's conception of love and consensual
sexual relations.
The worst revelation of Hurt's book is one that
was made in Ivana's 1990 divorce deposition
and reemerged during the 2016 campaign: :
Ivana had said at the time of her divorce that
Trump, angered by a painful scalp reduction
surgery to remove a bald spot conducted by a
doctor Ivana recommended, grabbed her,
pulled out hair from her own scalp, bellowed,
"Your fucking doctor has ruined me!," and

People ask if I feel vindicated. It's an evil
question. I wanted justice, not approval. No
one needed to vindicate me. I knew I was
right: I wanted the world to make me wrong.
Facts are facts, and cowards are cowards, and
belated recognition of obvious crimes does not
negate the harm done to victims.
What the truth can do is shine a light to a
better future. But officials behave as if the
future is foreclosed. They rush toward evil in
every form: genocide, eugenics, the
replacement of humanity with artificial
intelligence. They are part and parcel with the
predators they were supposed to expose and
condemn and prosecute.
They always were.

This is a distressing story about Trump's attempts to impede
Thomas Massie's efforts to release the Epstein files:
As the House moved toward a vote on releasing the Epstein files
last summer and fall, the White House and top Trump allies
launched an effort to forestall it that lawmakers told me was
unprecedented in its intensity and scope.
Massie called it a “360-pressure campaign,” one felt not just by
him and his staff but anyone associated with him. One tactic he
had not experienced before: Some of his key staff members were
suddenly offered more prestigious jobs in the Trump
administration or more lucrative had not experienced before: Some of his key staff members were
suddenly offered more prestigious jobs in the Trump
administration or more lucrative jobs in the private sector-the
idea being that if Massie no longer had a full staff, he couldn't
pursue ambitious legislation.
Massie recalled asking an employee who, a few weeks before the
vote, had received an employment offer that would double his
salary: "Did it ever occur to you that they might be offering you
this job to basically make me less effective?" He said the young
man sheepishly replied: "That's what my mom said." He turned
down the offer and finished writing the bill.

But the surprise of the moment has been the extraordinary solidarity that
ordinary Americans have shown with immigrants and against Trump-
Miller-Vance's parade of ethnonationalist horrors. Miller is using state-
sponsored violence and terror to try to break up that alliance. A big
reason Trumpworld is unapologetic about Good-Vance responded by
exaggerating the immunity of ICE officers, and Miller kept describing
protesters as insurrectionists, meaning it's open season on them—is to
warn Americans showing solidarity with immigrants that they do so at
their personal peril.
The fascists around Trump want us to think Trump will circumvent the
courts. They want to create the impression that he's fully capable of
presiding over a military dictatorship. They think that will cow
Americans and institutions into compliance. But if recent events tell us
one thing, it's this: That absolutely, emphatically is not going to happen.

What's really at stake here runs deeper still. After the killing of Renee
Good, administration officials conspicuously did not reassure the public
that institutional steps are being taken to avoid future horrors. They
didn't promise an impartial examination to build confidence by involving
stakeholders on all sides. Instead, they offered an account that anyone
could see with their own eyes was nonsense. As writer Radley Balko
notes:
The lies this administration is telling about Ms. Good aren't
those you deploy as part of a cover-up. They're those you use
when you want to show you can get away with anything.
I'd take that further. Miller, JD Vance, and the other ethnonationalists
around Trump operate from a worldview dictating that modern levels of
immigration profoundly threaten national social cohesion. They think
this view is widely shared by a "silent majority.”

Hundreds of immigrant mothers and children
detained at a South Texas facility on Saturday
protested the killing of a 37-year-old man in
Minneapolis, chanting "Let me out" and
"Libertad," or "Liberty," according to an
immigration lawyer who witnessed the
demonstration.
Eric Lee, the lawyer, said he had been waiting for
his client in the visitation area of the family
detention center in Dilley, Tex., when detention
officials abruptly asked him to leave. Once
outside, he peered through a chain-link fence and
saw hundreds of women and children walking out
of the facility and chanting in protest.
Lee said his client later told him on the phone that
he and other detainees were outraged over the
latest killing in Minneapolis and the detention of
Liam Conejo Ramos, the 5-year-old boy from
Ecuador detained with his father in Minneap
and sent to Texas.

Ken White, another former federal prosecutor who is now a defense lawyer
in Los Angeles, said he did not think the image would affect the case.
"It's very sleazy, and a good example of the juvenile and petulant ethos of
the sort of people who work for the Trump administration,” he said. “Though
contemptible it falls very far short of the sort of misconduct that federal
courts require to find 'outrageous government misconduct' that might
trigger a remedy like dismissal. It's also significantly short of the kind of
evidence that could support a motion to dismiss for vindictive prosecution."
Still, he added, there may be other reasons for posting the picture.
"The reason this prosecution is so appealing to the administration is that the
parishioners were white and the defendants are Black,” he said. "The
opportunity to degrade a Black woman thrills the kind of people who work in
the Trump administration and appeals to the kind of people who support the
Trump
ministration"

If the corrupt politicians of Minnesota don't obey the law and
stop the professional agitators and insurrectionists from
attacking the Patriots of I.C.E., who are only trying to do their job,
I will institute the INSURRECTION ACT, which many Presidents
have done before me, and quickly put an end to the travesty that
is taking place in that once great State. Thank you for you
attention to this matter! President DJT

EVERYDAY BUDDHISM
Mushrooms
When I was growing up, I remember having to sit at the
dinner table until all the food on my plate was gone.
Because I was a picky eater, this was a difficult task, and
when mushrooms were on the table, I knew I'd be sitting
there for a very long time. I thought to myself at those
times, "I hate mushrooms." I didn't like the flavor, texture,
color, or anything else about them. But as I got older, I
developed a taste for mushrooms. Now they're one of
my favorite things to eat. I now recognize that it was
never "I" who loved or hated mushrooms; it was my taste
buds and my nose conspiring to give me the experience
that "I" hated mushrooms. The average person has about
10,000 taste buds, and they're continually being replaced
by new ones. As we get older, things begin to taste
different to us. Because of the impermanent, constantly
changing nature of the body, I don't even know what
foods I will or won't enjoy in the next 5, 10, or 20 years.
Being aware of this allows me to try foods that I previ-
ously thought "I" disliked.
Next time you eat a meal, whether it's one of your
favorite foods or something you think you hate, remind
yourself that it's not "you" who likes or dislikes certain
things. It's your sense organs, along with mental forma-
tions and everything else happening in your mind, that
leave you with that perception. And perceptions, like a
taste for mushrooms, can change.

be encountered at any political meeting; and I am sure in
types can
our armed forces we could locate smooth, political generals
or colonels who would be willing to string along with a
party able to assure them rapid promotion to the top.
No, the Nazi leaders were not spectacular types, not per-
sonalities such as appear only once in a century. They sim-
ply had three quite unremarkable characteristics in common
and the opportunity to seize power. These three character-
sistics were: overweening ambition, low ethical standards, a
strongly developed nationalism which justified anything done
in the name of Germandom.
Let us look about us. Have we no ultranationalists among
us who would approve any policy, however evil, so long as
it could be said to be of advantage to America? Have we
no men
men so ruthlessly eager to achieve power that they
would not quite willingly climb over the corpses of our mi-
norities, if by so doing they could gain totalitarian control
Over the rest of us?
So much for the leaders of a potential American Nazism.
What of the followers? Shocking as it may seem to some of
sis, we as a people greatly resemble the Germans of two
decades ago. We have a very similar background of ideolo-

I am going to lead a movement to get rid of MAIL-IN BALLOTS, and also, while we're at it,
Highly "Inaccurate," Very Expensive, and Seriously Controversial VOTING MACHINES,
which cost Ten Times more than accurate and sophisticated Watermark Paper, which is
faster, and leaves NO DOUBT, at the end of the evening, as to who WON, and who LOST,
the Election. We are now the only Country in the World that uses Mail-In Voting. All
others gave it up because of the MASSIVE VOTER FRAUD ENCOUNTERED. WE WILL
BEGIN THIS EFFORT, WHICH WILL BE STRONGLY OPPOSED BY THE DEMOCRATS
BECAUSE THEY CHEAT AT LEVELS NEVER SEEN BEFORE, by signing an EXECUTIVE
ORDER to help bring HONESTY to the 2026 Midterm Elections. Remember, the States
are merely an "agent" for the Federal Government in counting and tabulating the votes.
They must do what the Federal Government, as represented by the President of the
United States, tells them, FOR THE GOOD OF OUR COUNTRY, to do. With their
HORRIBLE Radical Left policies, like Open Borders, Men Playing in Women's Sports,
Transgender and "WOKE" for everyone, and so much more, Democrats are virtually
Unelectable without using this completely disproven Mail-In SCAM. ELECTIONS CAN
NEVER BE HONEST WITH MAIL IN BALLOTS/VOTING, and everybody, IN PARTICULAR
THE DEMOCRATS, KNOWS THIS. I, AND THE REPUBLICAN PARTY, WILL FIGHT LIKE
HELL TO BRING HONESTY AND INTEGRITY BACK TO OUR ELECTIONS. THE MAIL-IN
BALLOT HOAX, USING VOTING MACHINES THAT ARE A COMPLETE AND TOTAL
DISASTER, MUST END, NOW!!! REMEMBER, WITHOUT FAIR AND HONEST ELECTIONS,
AND STRONG AND POWERFUL BORDERS, YOU DON'T HAVE EVEN A SEMBLANCE OF A
COUNTRY. THANK YOU FOR YOUR ATTENTION TO THIS MATTER!!! DONALD J. TRUMP,
PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA

concrete order of a polity. He should be an
enthusiastic participant in the thick civic
rituals of a culturally Christian nation, with its
own distinctive customs and history; he
should celebrate Thanksgiving and Christmas
and the Fourth of July; he should remember
the fallen, who gave their blood for the nation,
on Memorial Day, and those who were willing
to do so on Veterans' Day; he should honor the
great Presidents who shaped the conduct of
our nation, its great legislators and judges. He
must not say, even to himself, "all of that
history happened before I got here; it has
nothing to do with me and mine; we are free to
wield our rights however we like, free to do as
we like within the minimum boundaries of the
positive law." In contrast to Ilhan Omar and
her kind, he must not assume that because he
has the right legal status in the thin positive-
law sense, he is free to spew venom at the
American ancestors who built the very
framework of society and legality that now
protects his speech, his livelihood, and his
very life.
