@RepJamesClyburn Change the maximum amount of earnings subject to Social Security tax to $1,000,000. Social Security will be solvent for the next 75 years.

Jared and Ivanka Kushner want to buy Sazan Island in Albania because it is beautiful and they want to make it a resort. How nice!

But Sazan island is not a vacation spot. It’s a well-documented strategic military chokepoint with a long military history.

In 1958, Nikita Khrushchev stood at the nearby Soviet submarine base and said, "From there I could control the Mediterranean to Gibraltar." Sazan island controls the Strait of Otranto, and the Strait of Otranto controls access to the entire Adriatic.

Every empire that wanted to control the Adriatic, wanted Sazan. Romans. Ottomans. Italians. Germans. Soviets.

What Ivanka describes as "An unbelievable, beautiful 1,400-hectare private island in the middle of the Mediterranean," is approximately 3,600 nuclear bunkers and kilometers of tunnels and hardened underground facilities, including a submarine pen the Soviets built specifically to project power into the Mediterranean, and is still an Albanian military zone.

The deal was negotiated in secret. Albanian citizens and their own parliament didn't know about it until the press reported it. The Albanian government approved it immediately after Trump won reelection. Kushner’s newly formed investment company is using $4.6 billion from Saudi Arabia and Gulf sovereign wealth funds to fund the purchase. A Qatari company, Power International Holding, is a co-owner of the project and is currently under investigation by Albanian anti-corruption prosecutors.

Now that the deal is public, the Albanians are pissed. They're in the streets marching by the thousands in Tirana, Albania’s capital with banners reading "Albania is not for sale." Private security forces have attacked protesters. The Albanian government has suspended police officers, and revoked security company licenses.

Yep, just a couple private civilians looking to open a resort. No need to look further...

Now that you know the whole story, what do you think?

@CattardSlim @dillman_doug After DOGE defunded the screw worm sterilization program and monitoring program, the Trump Administration rescinded the ban on importing Mexican Cattle that Biden had imposed.

@SenRonJohnson 24% would be about the total number of the stupidest people in America, also known as MAGA.

@BillKristol @Peggysuz2017 The Medicare cuts of over $500 Billion are already in the pipeline because of Pay-Go and the Big Beautiful Bill. Everyone seems to be blind to that.

[Lawrence Shields @Larshields]

@OurShallowState @Kigo123 And the MAGA cult drink up this bile, just like they lick shit out of Trump’s used diapers.

@Acyn The timeline described by Forbes Magazine points the finger directly at DOGE Cuts to screw worm prevention programs, the Trump Administration rescinding the Biden Administration ban on importing cattle from Mexico, and not monitoring Mexican Cattle for disease. 1/2

@hhanger1958 @JxRoland @jimsciutto It’s been proven time after time, but these MAGA assholes think they are the majority in this country and can’t understand how they can lose since they are a majority. It’s put delusion by a loud, hatful, racist, stupid minority that does not believe in American values.

@marceelias Calling Todd Blanche a staunch loyalist is a misnomer. He is a stooge, a dupe. A lawyer with no moral character or scruples. He is Trump's Roy Cohn.

@Schevygirl @NYCMayor @nyctourism You're a very sad, sad person.

@HQNewsNow It's part of the delusion the Republican Party propagates to MAGA, pretending that MAGA is some kind of majority in this country, when in reality MAGA is just a loud, hateful, racist, stupid, minority.

[Lawrence Shields @Larshields]

@ColMoeDavis Perfect description of MAGA.
