Arrogance!
A disgusting display of MAGA wealth and arrogance:
- Around 300 demonstrators marched to the Riva dei Sette Martiri waterfront where the six-story yacht, named Boardwalk, was moored.
- Protesters carried inflatable beach toys, a yacht-length banner, and signs with slogans like "Make America Go Away" and "Venice is not to be used" (Venezia non si USA).
- Minor scuffles broke out and demonstrators briefly clashed with riot police guarding the access points before shouting "Shame!" at the ambassador, police, and local officials.
- Display of Wealth: Activists criticized the massive vessel—which loomed taller than nearby historic buildings—as an arrogant and gross display of extreme wealth.
- Security and Disruption: Locals and Italian politicians expressed anger that public police resources were diverted to act as a free private security detail for a billionaire's vessel.
- Political Tensions: Protesters voiced anger over U.S. policies under President Donald Trump and local frustrations regarding mass tourism and the economic struggles of everyday Venetians.

Trump's Brain is Total Mush
NOTE:
Thank you Dave Dubya and Possumlady for pointing out that this DJT Truth Social post is a parody and not authentic. But it is so nutty and batshyte crazy, that I believed it was true and didn’t fact check it this morning as I rushed out the door to the goat farm!
I regret the error.
Mad King Trump wants his Homeland Security secretary to see if detention centers for the undocumented could also be used to detain and keep Democrats locked up because the idiot, Mad King Trump, believes all Democrats are Communists.
And he's calls THEM lunatics.

The Trump administration and the Tate brothers:
Allen Clifton:
Andrew Tate, a well-known “manosphere influencer” and friend of Donald Trump Jr., along with his brother, were arrested in Miami on 59 charges they’re facing in England — charges that include sexual assault and human trafficking.
Why were they in Miami?
Because the Trump administration put pressure on Romanian officials to allow them to leave the country after they were arrested and placed under house arrest for sexual assault, human trafficking, and other terrible and disgusting alleged crimes there.
Trump was inaugurated on January 20, 2025, and the Tate brothers were freed and arrived in the United States less than two months later. That’s how quickly this happened.
Yes, the same administration led by Donald Trump, who’s covering up the Epstein files, moved Ghislaine Maxwell to a cushy minimum-security prison she’s not qualified to be at due to the heinous nature of her crimes, is also the same administration that helped bring the Tate brothers back to the United States — a move even Republican Gov. Ron DeSantis denounced.
You don’t really need to use a whole lot of mental energy to realize that there’s a clear pattern with this president and how comfortable, if not outright encouraging, he is around people who abuse women.
Whether it’s the nearly 30 women who’ve accused him of sexual assault, his defense secretary, who settled a lawsuit with a woman who accused him of sexual assault and whose own mother called him an abuser of women, his 15-plus-year friendship with Jeffrey Epstein, the fact that Matt Gaetz was his first pick for attorney general, or his help in bringing the Tate brothers back to the United States — there’s clearly a pattern.
Yet MAGA will just keep making excuses for Trump because that’s what they’ll do for the guy who’s literally on video bragging about sexually assaulting women and showing a clear level of comfort with and support for others who abuse and assault women.
What Actually Happened
Diplomatic Pressure: In early 2025, foreign policy envoys and officials within the Trump administration (including Special Envoy Richard Grenell) raised the Tate brothers' case with Romanian officials.
Travel Ban Lifted: Shortly after these diplomatic talks, Romanian courts unexpectedly lifted the travel restrictions keeping the Tates in the country, allowing the U.S. citizens to fly to Florida while still under indictment in Romania.
Subsequent Arrest in the U.S.: Upon arriving in Florida, the brothers were taken into custody by U.S. Marshals in connection with an extradition warrant from the United Kingdom regarding separate sexual assault and trafficking allegations.
Why the Admistration intervened
Administration Ties: Paul Ingrassia, a former lawyer for the Tate brothers, was appointed as White House Liaison for the Department of Justice under the administration.
Political Support: Members of the administration's inner circle, including Donald Trump Jr., publicly criticized the Romanian government's detention of the Tates, calling their arrest unjust.
Consular & Passport Claims: U.S. officials framed parts of their outreach around recovering the brothers' U.S. passports and ensuring two American citizens were not subjected to unfair foreign detention.

THE OFFICIAL SPANISH PHOTO OF THE WINNERS OF THE WORLD CUP
Trump, the malignant narcissist, was photoshopped OUT of the official photo:
They took out the man who was mercilessly booed at the World Cup:
HOW YA GONNA KEEP 'EM DOWN ON THE FARM (and preggers) AFTER THEY'VE COMPETED IN SPORTS?
