Donald I, emperor of the world.

(Completely off-topic and probably deserving of its own thread but) in some respects it went a very small way to mitigate his condition, that he could still remember his younger days and took some pleasure from those memories, sort of clinging to who he was, that he was still a person who had done stuff.

Some years earlier for a birthday present we (his children) had trawled through his vast boxes on old photos (family, places, etc.) and selected a range chronologically and digitised/processed and created a print book. When he had to go to live in a care home they said to bring and leave them the book as it was ideal for the nurses to sit with him and go through the book and get him to tell them about the photos. Even when he couldn't recognise Mum when she visited he could still remember (some) past events and places.

Music can temporarily reset the cognitive function of people with Alzheimer's and Dementia as long as the music was music they listened to during their younger days.

I can confirm that from personal experience, just today. 👍

Hesgeth really endearing himself to the armed services, whilst unable to consider that the photo was reversed, rather than Sen Kelly's medals: given how decorated he is, I think it would be fair to say that he probably knows what order they go in.

My suspicion is that this kind of attack will only underline the message that Kelly and colleagues were sending, and gain a lot of sympathy from serving troops who are having to consider whether orders are illegal.

I can never see this too many times.

Epstein; the gift that keeps on giving.
This time it's the federal courts and Judge Chutkan, (yes the judge who was to hear the prosecution of Trump for insurrection before the Supreme Court stepped in), who has ordered the release of papers connected with Epstein. This follows a Freedom of Information request.
https://www.newsweek.com/judge-chutkan-orders-expedited-process-epstein-files-11105315
The request concerns the process surrounding the investigation and also appears to cover the subsequent "nothing to see here" decisions by Bondi and Kash Patel.

(Nice, straight journalism which is often lacking in even the better UK press)
Is that another can they can kick down the road? When does the weight of public, political and judicial pressure yield outcome?

Hegseth saying "I'm really dumb." without saying I'm really dumb. They are the people at the top of the administration, which we know, and have known for a while, but the level of dumbfarkery never fails to amaze.

Dumb and probably drunk too.

Meanwhile, rumours that Trump wants rid of Kash Patel, presumably because he's not managing to secure any convictions of Trump's political enemies via Bondi's DOJ. I've lost track of where we are with Jack Smith, but that could be fun, as I suspect he's got a lot of material to work with, having been stymied by Aileen Cannon and others. I wonder how Merrick Garland is feeling about his tenure now - he's gone awfully silent.

Binance accused of aiding terrorists in new lawsuit​

This centres around Zhao who was pardoned by Trump.
https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/articles/c87lx2gx3yvo#:~:text=The lawsuit accuses the firm,for the 7 October attacks.

The lawsuit accuses the firm of knowingly facilitating the transfer of more than $1bn to and from accounts connected to organisations designated by the US as foreign terrorist groups and responsible for the 7 October attacks.

So basically, Trump has pardoned a man who funds terrorism perpetrated against the US.
Zhao is embedded in Palantir as is Stephen Muller. It's a den of thieves.

--------------------------------------------------------
There seems to be an avalanche of events that the Trump administration cannot keep a lid on and there is this constant stream of punch and counter punch and I have the feeling that as more decisions don't go their way, more players jump in the queue/on the pile.
There's a push to expedite the Epstein files under the FOIA for example. The administration is inundated. It is unsustainable.
The 3rd Reich was organised, this lot are a crudely assembled network of crooks and too many crooks spoil the brothel.
