Welcome to the News community!

Rules:

1. Be civil


Attack the argument, not the person. No racism/sexism/bigotry. Good faith argumentation only. This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban. Do not respond to rule-breaking content; report it and move on.

Obvious biased sources will be removed at the mods’ discretion. Supporting links can be added in comments or posted separately but not to the post body. Sources may be checked for reliability using Wikipedia, MBFC, AdFontes, GroundNews, etc.

4. Post titles should be the same as the article used as source. Clickbait titles may be removed.


Posts which titles don’t match the source may be removed. If the site changed their headline, we may ask you to update the post title.

what an absolutely ugly bathroom.

[–] neukenindekeuken@sh.itjust.works 20 points 1 day ago (3 children)

Just think about what the east wing is going to look like.

[–] SaveTheTuaHawk@lemmy.ca 16 points 1 day ago (2 children)

I have an idea...like a Slovenian Whorehouse.

[–] D_C@sh.itjust.works 10 points 1 day ago

Do not besmirch whorehouses, Slovenian or otherwise, by comparing them to anything that that obese child rapist would like. They don't deserve that!

[–] tigeruppercut@lemmy.zip 5 points 1 day ago (1 children)

He's gonna get dragged out of the WH in 2029 clutching a literal carpet bag filled with all that gold

[–] SupraMario@lemmy.world 5 points 1 day ago

I don't see him making it to the end. Or I hope he doesn't.

[–] voidsignal@lemmy.world 12 points 1 day ago (1 children)

I hope there will be inspirational wooden signs, written in all possible fonts at once, stating stupid things. This is the pinacle of American taste.

[–] krashmo@lemmy.world 7 points 1 day ago

Live, laugh, love little ladies

[–] corsicanguppy@lemmy.ca 5 points 1 day ago

Mobster caricature chic, of course.

[–] zalgotext@sh.itjust.works 16 points 1 day ago

All those gaudy-ass lights and gilt frame around the mirror, and then the $8 Big Lots curtain rod and $6 shower liner

[–] Gammelfisch@lemmy.world 2 points 1 day ago

One can see the Putin influence.

We all believed and still believe this. The amount of blatant corruption is proof enough that if he could make money off this we absolutely would.

Almost choked on my lunch over this meme

[–] Didntdoit71@feddit.online 2 points 20 hours ago

Wow. What gave him away? EVERYTHING Rump does is either for more money or to stay out of jail.

[–] Reality_Suit@lemmy.world 54 points 1 day ago (4 children)

I'm tired of the news stating things we've already known for years.

[–] frongt@lemmy.zip 31 points 1 day ago

I'd be okay with it if it actually meant anything. But it's all "and then nothing happened".

[–] adespoton@lemmy.ca 12 points 1 day ago (2 children)

The big thing (and what Trump & co count on) is that — yes, it’s been years since the allegations went public. Everyone knows about the allegations and is tired of them as nothing was done at the time, and so much has happened since.

But NOW, the evidence is all validated, so there can be legal consequences, if people still care. Thing is, people don’t care anymore, because other allegations are considered more important to address now. And the legal system isn’t set up to deal with such a high volume of investigations and cases (and Trump has done his utmost to make this situation even worse).

[–] KneeTitts@lemmy.world 6 points 1 day ago (1 children)

But NOW, the evidence is all validated, so there can be legal consequences

narrator: but there never were any consequences

There'll be consequences for the country that allowed him to come to power. That'll be enough.

[–] NewSocialWhoDis@lemmy.zip 3 points 1 day ago

Can there be legal consequences after Trump lackey Ailene Cannon dismissed the charges?

[–] njm1314@lemmy.world 3 points 1 day ago

Well nothing ever happens so maybe the information saturation wasn't enough. Maybe not enough of us knew.

More importantly though I think these kind of things need to be said often and by as many sources as possible if only for posterity. So that future generations, if there are any, will at least know what happened. Will at least know some of us were paying attention. Will at least be able to learn the truth and not just the narrative the fascist government wants them to believe.

[–] Einskjaldi@lemmy.world 1 points 1 day ago

No, because it's just as likely he would have taken them just to brag about it.

came to say this exact phrase but instead will add. fuck that trump!

[–] LillyPip@lemmy.ca 10 points 1 day ago

Why is this being reported now? We’ve known this for years.

Has something changed today?

[–] kingofras@lemmy.world 34 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Next thing they’ll uncover he had 13 year old bite his little dick as he was forcing to rape them and that he buried his victims on his golf courses…

But take your time, there’s still Cuba and Greenland to invade first.

[–] fizzle@quokk.au 1 points 1 day ago

Heyyy, hold your horses there zippy.

There must be at least several years of headlines about insider trading and nepotism before we get that far.

[–] NocturnalMorning@lemmy.world 9 points 1 day ago

Wait, you mean to tell me, Trump, the guy who is known for not paying people, lying as a habit, and cheating, bankrupting casinos (not relevant i just like mentioning it), and suing everyone under the sun. That guy did something for personal gain? No way..

[–] Janx@piefed.social 18 points 1 day ago* (last edited 18 hours ago)

You can tell it's for his own personal gain because it's something he did.

[–] Wataba@sh.itjust.works 6 points 1 day ago
[–] Wilco@lemmy.zip 14 points 1 day ago

No shit .... he got convicted for it. He is a felon.

[–] TwinTitans@lemmy.world 6 points 1 day ago

This man will be written about for decades as all his corruption comes to the front.

[–] kylie_kraft@lemmy.world 19 points 1 day ago* (last edited 1 day ago) (1 children)

Hol-ee fuck. Hoarding extremely classified documents for personal profit is rat king level corruption. But most Americans won't hear about it because the media is controlled by billionaires for whom this is business as usual. A few minor outlets will put up an article, some Dems might send strongly worded letters, and this will be forgotten when Trump says something idiotic tomorrow.

[–] Asafum@lemmy.world 14 points 1 day ago

Remember to ~~kick~~ thank Merrick Garland for his ~~patheitc cowardice~~ service to our country, ~~dragging his feet for 2 years~~ ordering an investigation into Trump's actions ~~giving him enough time to run out the clock and having "judge" Cannon protect him.~~

🫡

Not only investigators ... !

[–] Gammelfisch@lemmy.world 3 points 1 day ago

Business interests and working for fucking Vlad.

[–] Eternal192@anarchist.nexus 10 points 1 day ago

Investigators cost a lot of money and they didn't uncover anything we didn't already know and i could have told you that for free because Trump is a thieving, greedy, pedo asshole and there is plenty of evidence to support that statement and the bastard is still alive and still a president, THANK YOU FOR YOUR ATTENTION TO THIS MATTER.

[–] atzanteol@sh.itjust.works 7 points 1 day ago

Say it ain't so!

[–] Scotty_Trees@lemmy.world 5 points 1 day ago

Oh no shit? With headlines like these, why the fuck do I even bother reading shit we've already known for years?

[–] Crozekiel@lemmy.zip 4 points 1 day ago

I'm kinda getting sick of these "news headlines" that keep soft-balling obviously true statements like 5 years too late.

[–] johncandy1812@lemmy.ca 4 points 1 day ago

Throw it on the pile

[–] Jesusaurus@lemmy.world 4 points 1 day ago* (last edited 1 day ago)

If only there were charges that could be brought against people who do something like that...

[–] RedGreenBlue@lemmy.zip 2 points 1 day ago

Yes. Capital punishment maybe?

[–] Hayduke@lemmy.world 2 points 1 day ago* (last edited 1 day ago)

Look at Medialite. Crackin’ the fuckin’ case. What other bombshells are they going to lob at us?

/s, just in case

[–] cmbabul@lemmy.world 2 points 1 day ago

It would be more surprising if he didnt

you mean he wasn't doing it for late night reading!
