Is anyone surprised that Trump would borrow the jacket of another Cadet with their medals on it for his final portrait to make it look like he earned them when they belonged to Cadet Michael Scadron instead.
This is one of the GREATEST live fact checks ever performed on trump's stupid ass, to his face:
trump: "A lot of people are saying I'm one of the greatest presidents ever."
Reporter: "THEY'RE not saying that, though."💀
See how EASY that was, reporters?
Long before Ashkenazi or Sephardic Jews ever set foot in Greece, a distinct Jewish community had already been living there for over 2,000 years, speaking their own Greek dialect and following customs found nowhere else in the Jewish world.
The Romaniote Jews trace their presence in Greece back to the Hellenistic era, predating both the later Sephardic arrivals after the 1492 expulsion from Spain and any Ashkenazi migration. Their spiritual and cultural center for centuries was Ioannina, a city in northwestern Greece, where they developed their own liturgical traditions, synagogue architecture, and even their own Judeo-Greek language. On March 25, 1944, the Nazis deported nearly the entire Jewish population of Ioannina, over 1,800 people, to Auschwitz, and only a small fraction survived. Today, the community numbers only a few dozen people, and the centuries-old Kahal Kadosh Yashan synagogue still stands, maintained largely for memory as much as for regular worship.
It's one of the oldest continuously documented Jewish communities in Europe, and also one of the most fragile survivors of the Holocaust's near-total destruction of an entire distinct culture.
There's something haunting about a 2,000-year-old tradition now surviving through just a handful of people and a carefully preserved building. The Romaniote community developed their own distinct Hebrew and Greek liturgical poetry tradition that survives nowhere else in the Jewish world today.

Belt treatment delivered 🔥
Still amazed every time this scene comes up, especially knowing the dolphins were captured by pure chance.
Moments like this are why Christopher Nolan insisted on filming THE ODYSSEY in real locations whenever possible.
🚨 President Trump has officially declared war on bad hair days. 😂🇺🇸

Drop your meme and variation below. Let’s have some fun with this. 👇
She was only a teenager when men began arguing over who would own her....
Not because she had committed a crime, but because the world she had been born into was disappearing. As the Armenian genocide swept across the Ottoman Empire during the WWI, Aurora Mardiganian watched neighbors vanish, family members murdered, and entire communities erased. Then came the moment that would haunt her for the rest of her life: she was taken captive and forced into sexual slavery.
Aurora was passed from one captor to another before ending up inside a harem, where young women were treated as possessions rather than people. Stories spread among the captives about girls who disappeared after refusing advances, while others survived by convincing powerful men they were obedient. Aurora never stopped looking for a chance to escape.
Against extraordinary odds, she found one.
Her journey carried her across deserts, through refugee camps, and eventually to New York City in 1917. Most survivors tried to bury memories like hers. Aurora did the opposite. She decided the world should see what had happened, no matter how uncomfortable it made people.
She wrote a memoir titled *Ravished Armenia*, and in one of history's most extraordinary twists, she portrayed herself in the silent film adaptation. Imagine being forced to reenact the worst moments of your own life before a movie camera, hoping strangers might finally believe what so many preferred to ignore.
The film shocked audiences, raised money for Armenian relief efforts, and became one of the earliest attempts to document genocide through cinema. Yet much of it was later lost, and for decades Aurora's name faded while Hollywood remembered other stars.
She lived until 1994, long enough to see the century that had nearly destroyed her come to an end. Her story remains a reminder that history is not only written by those who hold power—it is sometimes preserved because one survivor refused to let the truth disappear with the people who tried to silence it.
