@KTHopkins On the one hand, we have @stormzy, a person who uses his talent, his platform, and his energy to fight for a better Britain. And on the other, we have you, @KTHopkins, a person who uses her talent, her platform, and her energy to fight for it to be more racist. Genuinely: why?
The Scott Pelley story to me is a lesson in how if you work hard enough in your career to get Fuck You Money, the real reward is the day you need to say it, you can
Met a young person who can't find a job bc of AI. His mom is sick and needs home care. He drives Uber to pay rent, but is barely getting by. I told him the White House pool is going to be longer than skyscrapers and he burst out crying. "Thank you sir," he said, "I needed that."
UK, I am BEGGING you not to do to your country what we have done to ours. Racists suck, entires groups are not to blame for murder, Sikhs do more to help people than most can even imagine, and again, racism sucks. DO NOT let these cunts divide (even more) and conquer (even more).
"Trickle down economics doesn't work, so let's try piñata economics. That's the one where we beat the billionaires until the hoarded wealth falls out."
Worse than that, and this is ONE story.
Sazan was a protected marine national park. On Dec 30, 2024, weeks before the inauguration, Albania de-protected it and handed Jared’s affiliate “strategic investor” status for fast-tracked permits. Locals already call it Ishulli i Trumpëve. Trump Island.
The buyer is Affinity Partners. Biggest backer: Saudi Arabia’s PIF, $2B, placed six months after Jared left the White House, over the objections of PIF’s own screening committee (“inexperienced,” “excessive fees”). MBS overruled them.
Kushner’s pulled $110M+ in fees from the Saudis for a fund that, by its own filings, returned NOTHING. Foreign money in Affinity jumped from ~$3B to $4.8B across 2024, right as a second term got likely.
On the ground, bulldozers in a flamingo habitat, no permits, no environmental study. A protester who objected got beaten by private guards while police watched.
Albania’s anti-corruption prosecutors have now opened an inquiry into how the land lost its protection.
So no, it’s not a private island they “discovered.” It’s a national park a foreign government de-protected, financed by sovereign wealth the Saudis’ own analysts flagged as a bad bet, routed through the president’s son-in-law.
This is horrific. The Board of Immigration Appeals, having been purged of all dissenters, rules that unaccompanied migrant CHILDREN who initially crossed the border unlawfully MUST be detained without bond, EVEN IF they have been granted Special Immigrant Juvenile Status.
