Well, rust can be used as pigment in paint, etc. It can be used to make thermite. And aren’t magnetic storage media rust-based? What can Trump be used for, other than fertiliser?
Donald Trump’s Defense Department wants every reporter at the Pentagon ― including HuffPost’s S.V. Dáte ― to sign a ridiculous, plainly unconstitutional document. Our response is simple: No way in hell.
Under the Pentagon’s absurd demands, reporters must agree not to obtain any information that the Defense Department does not expressly allow. This is an unacceptable attack on the First Amendment and the principles of a free press. It’s the latest alarming assault on independent media from the Trump administration.

News Outlets Across The Aisle Reject Pentagon’s Attack On Journalistic Freedom In Joint Statement
ABC News, CBS News, CNN, Fox News Media and NBC News released a joint statement on Tuesday opposing the Pentagon’s new press policy, which infringes on journalistic freedom.
"Today, we join virtually every other news organization in declining to agree to the Pentagon’s new requirements, which would restrict journalists’ ability to keep the nation and the world informed of important national security issues,” the statement read.
The cherry on this cake:
Just one news outlet has said it will sign the new policy, pro-Trump One America News.
We all know damn well that if the alleged smugglers were white, they’d be getting arrested and not killed. Trump is sick fuck. Everyone involved in these atrocities should be turned over to the ICC.
Trump said today that if “If [Milei] loses, we will not be generous with Argentina,” referring to foreign aid.
I remember when presidents didn’t just blatantly engage in foreign election interference, at least not right in the open on the TeeVee. I’m reminded The West Wing, where every once in a while a staffer would be on a morning show and he’d say, “yeah, well, the President doesn’t like waffles,” and all the other staffers would immediately look at each other because they know that Senator Blowcock has loyalties to Papua New Guinea because of the contracts negotiated by the ambassador to Trinidad and Tobago, who’s father happens to run the biggest Waffle Lobby in the country and they just lost the gun control vote they needed.
Now, they just skip all that esoteric shit and say, “Hey, Fuck waffles!”
The problem is that he will very probably (touches wood, says ‘Pugliese’ three times) lose, or at least not win.
When Trump said that markets and bonds took a nosedive here in Argentina because nobody expects them to get much more than 40% of the vote (that could be enough to be the most voted party though, since there are more than 2 parties) and the list of bad news (both for the country in general and for Milei’s party in particular) grows every week.
Of course I fully expect Trump to define “win” loosely enough to keep supporting his pal, unless he loses catastrophically (which is not likely but it could happen).
Rest assured than on October 26 I will be voting against Milei with the added satisfaction of voting against Trump too.
Yeah, all at once he looks old, bald, still looks fat.
In retaliation, Time (for MotY) isn’t going to get him to change from his official/mug-shot-like glare. Maybe if they have a nice baby mobile with gold shiny things on it he’ll look up.
You heard him, Argentinians. Vote Milei and vote for him often!
I reckon he really wants to use more Tomahawks on some nation. Putin poo-pood the possibility of Ukraine getting them last week yet yesterday Medvedev all but said it’d be nuclear retaliation. Why give any to Ukraine when the USA is perfectly capable and willing to lob them wherever they want in Russia. Sink some boats in Krondstadt in the Baltic, sink one at Sevastopol and do what you will with the garbage city of Moscow yet leave St. Petersburg be.
‘A Yankee with unusual skin extorting the entire citizenry of a country that lives life in “don’t give me orders, my old man didn’t, neither are you, you fat asshole” mode is sure to turn out just great.’
