oh look the russian agents trying to influence the election are using #cryptocurrency (this is my not-shocked-at-all face)
also popular YouTube influencers Lauren Southern, Tim Pool, #LaurenChen, and one of Benny Johnson/Dave Rubin "unknowingly" agreed to work for Russia for large sums of money ($100,000 per youtube video or a few million/year): https://x.com/ariehkovler/status/1831413692409487766
in particular the russian agents seem to have moved money through #Lithuania and used #BitPay to buy domains. i wrote a bunch about the Lithuanian central bank's attempts to shut down Russian money last year; it's here (an US company Crypto[.]com is involved): https://cryptadamus.substack.com/p/cryptocom-or-crypto-dot-con

"And now, we’ve arrived at the logical conclusion of all this—Eric #Trump, the barking embodiment of dumb-son nepotism. A laughable lout with inherited intellectual necrosis and the empathy of a Terminator wrapped in designer smugness.
In Eric we have the heir to a #political dynasty so corrupt it saddens Tammany Hall, b/c they’re not here to stand and clap. A guy whose gums allow you to shelter-in-place during EF4 tornadoes. Whose existence makes it so when you say the “the dumb Trump son,” you’re somehow not talking about Don Jr."

Apparently, Canadian journalist Dean Blundell got the goods... #letter #trump
This IS exactly as described in the WSJ article, complete with "Donald" being used as pubes. The letter made up a page in a leather-bound book of birthday wishes, collected by Ghislaine Maxwell for #epstein 's 50th birthday, in January 2003... one year before the real estate squabble that caused the friendship to break up.

As useful as it is for US #dictator #trump to invade US cities with military power, or to meet with the Russian dictator, as a means of distracting from #epstein let's not forget who's who. Here's a simple picture:

Save the date: A federal judge is giving the #Trump admin until Monday to pay nonprofits and aid groups — including the Global Health Council and the AIDS Vaccine Advocacy Coalition — affected by Trump's order to freeze foreign assistance and shut down USAID.
The DEA Once Touted Body Cameras for Their “Enhanced Transparency.” Now the Agency Is Abandoning Them.

#Trump angrily brushed off ethical concerns about accepting a $400 million luxury jet from #Qatar to be used as a new #AirForceOne, saying only someone “stupid” would turn down such an offer.
“I think it’s a great gesture from Qatar. I appreciate it very much. I would never be one to turn down that kind of an offer. I mean, I could be a stupid person say, ‘No, we don’t want a free, very expensive airplane.’ But it was—I thought it was a great gesture,” Trump said.
