URGENT! MOTHER BEING EXTORTED
I need help, PLEASE. I need to know how to get my mom's #data, (whatever the data is) from these guys so I can tell them where to put their subscriptions.
At best this is a scam, at worst it's #EXTORTION.
…On Wed, the #US & #Ukraine signed the #minerals deal. While it does not explicitly mention #security guarantees for Ukraine, it ensures the *possibility* of shipments of American weapons to Ukraine if a peace deal is not reached w/ #Russia.
While Ukraine is still receiving weapons authorized under #Biden, those supplies are expected to end this summer.

After the pope’s funeral, #Zelensky said he & #Trump had talked about a deal to *share* in the profit from extraction of #Ukraine’s #NaturalResources. Trump later said Zelensky asked for Patriot missiles.
“He told me that he needs more weapons,” Trump told reporters. “He’s been saying that for three years.”

Translation: The #PendejoInChief is basically extorting CBS, who needs FCC approval for a merger. Still, CBS is basically folding like a cheap suit.
“#Trump envisioned this *partnership* between the American people & the Ukrainian people to show both sides’ commitment to lasting peace & prosperity in #Ukraine,” #ScottBessent added. “And to be clear, no state or person who financed or supplied the Russian war machine will be allowed to benefit from the reconstruction of Ukraine.”
The economic agreement is intended to provide #Ukraine w/ an *implicit* [so no real promises] #security arrangement while addressing #Trump’s concerns that the #US has provided Kyiv w/ a *blank check*.
“This agreement signals clearly to #Russia that the Trump administration is committed to a *peace* process centered on a #free, #sovereign, & prosperous Ukraine over the long term,” Treasury Secy #ScottBessent said in a statement.
The #UnitedStates & #Ukraine announced the creation of a new reconstruction & investment fund, formalizing an economic agreement between the 2 that is intended to give the US access to proceeds from Ukraine’s reserves of rare earth #minerals.
The agreement concludes months of fraught negotiations over whether the #US will continue to provide Ukraine w/ #economic & #military support to Ukraine as it tries to broker an end to its war w/ #Russia.

Yup, I’m pretty sure using #threats, #intimidation & #extortion to help #Russia’s #invasion of #Ukraine, won’t win #Trump a #NobelPeacePrize
The threat #Trump poses 2 law & decency is clear. US courts issue rulings, Trump not only ignores them he targets the judges who made them. He attacks opponents law firms, & asks them to give his Administration free legal advice or take consequences. #Extortion must be condemned, Many Americans must be fearful of what is to come. For those of us who considered the US a good friend, the situation is heartbreaking.

So, #Trump master plan was for both sides to just stop fighting. And he thought he could achieve that by giving one side everything it wanted, and threatening the other one with #extinction and #extortion.
"Two major law firms are expected to ask separate judges on Wednesday to permanently block President Donald Trump’s executive orders that were designed to punish them and hurt their business operations.
"The firms — Perkins Coie and WilmerHale — have said the orders imposed in March are unconstitutional assaults on the legal profession that threaten their relationships with clients and retaliate against them based either on their past legal representations or their association with particular attorneys who Trump perceives as his adversaries...
"The executive orders taking aim at some of the country’s most elite and prominent law firms are part of a wide-ranging retribution campaign by Trump designed to reshape civil society and extract concessions from perceived adversaries."

The big box CEOs flat out told Trump the prices aren't going up, they're steady right now, but they'll go up. & this wasn't about food. But he was told that shelves will be empty" -an admin official. Another official briefed on the meeting said the CEOs told Trump disruptions could become noticeable in 2 weeks.
Trump says the #tariffs on CN will be lower, but only that "they'll be north of zero." His "governing style" is that of a mob boss.

" The situation has raised concerns at FEMA that the White House is playing politics with critical emergency management funds. President Donald Trump and his allies have criticized FEMA for months as partisan, ineffective and unnecessary. Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem has said she will “eliminate FEMA” altogether."
The Trump WH is sabotaging itself with its unbridled hostility toward the #courts. The SC has been doing its best to defuse the looming clash w the admin.
Form of govt we're living in right now: closest analogue is the Mafia -using #extortion to achieve his objectives.
For Trump, law is nothing but politics -apply his tactics for pol battles in the legal realm: attack -never admit error -stoke griev...

Heather Cox Richardson Harvard Letter a Mistake. Harvard’s Response 4/20/25
@britwijnmaalen
Je zou zeggen dat een beetje jurist heel goed weet dat er geen sprake is van "moeten" en dat ze het gewoon kunnen aanvechten. Waarschijnlijk zelfs goedkoper dan gratis voor #POTUS werken.
Sarah Kennedy-O’Reilly, a #Harvard spox, said the #university was aware of the letter, which she said “follows on the heels of our statement that Harvard will not surrender its independence or relinquish its constitutional rights. We continue to stand by that statement.”
