The FireAid benefit concert in January raised $100 million to help the victims of the fire. They have yet to see a dime. The money raised has instead been distributed to non-profits. The 100M you stole plus the fact that you have reneged on allowing people to rebuild, you need to SIT DOWN

Antifa leaders flee America as Trump cracks down on domestic terrorist networks by Mia Cathell Several high-profile antifa leaders have fled the country or are actively making plans to abscond overseas. News of their escape comes after President Donald Trump designated antifa as a domestic terrorist threat and directed federal authorities to dismantle terrorism networks operating within the United States. Mark Bray, a financier of transnational antifa operations and antifa’s foremost thought leader in America, announced he is fleeing to Europe, settling in Spain specifically, under the pretext of safety concerns following negative media attention. Before his departure, Bray issued an apparent call-to-action, urging widespread militancy. “Only mass antifascism, legal or not, can save us,” Bray declared on Bluesky, a popular platform on the political Left. https://www.washingtonexaminer.com/news/investigations/3843239/antifa-leaders-flee-america/

Sigh. It's like speaking with a child. . . . . While you re busy puffing up your chest about your "news reading" You might note that NO ONE on this board had posted anything about the Nobel results. You had a chance to inform your fellow posters, but you chose to be an child. (and learn how to spell) MEANWHILE: Who Is María Corina Machado, Winner of the 2025 Nobel Peace Prize? Ms. Machado built one of Venezuela’s most important political movements, and lives in hiding from President Nicolás Maduro’s authoritarian government. https://www.nytimes.com/2025/10/10/world/americas/maria-corina-machado-nobel-peace-prize-venezuela.html .

Again. An adult poster would provide a link, and not just snark. Nobel Peace Prize goes to María Corina Machado, Venezuela’s opposition leader By Christian Edwards • The Nobel Peace Prize was awarded to María Corina Machado for “promoting democratic rights for the people of Venezuela.” Machado is a leader of the democracy movement in Venezuela. • Machado went into hiding after the Venezuelan government moved to crush dissent following last year’s election. The Nobel Committee chair said he is not sure whether Machado will be able to attend the prize ceremony in Norway in December. • US President Donald Trump made no secret of his desire for a Nobel Peace Prize. But it was unlikely he would be awarded this year’s accolade because of the nomination process. But – aside from the merits of his case – the president’s hopes are likely to be dashed by the fact that the nomination process ended on January 31, when he had only been in office for 11 days. https://www.cnn.com/world/live-news/nobel-peace-prize-10-10-25 Nope.

You posted a video about Stephen Miller in the Democrat party thread When I pointed out that this was the wrong thread, you called me a liar It is a clear example of why you are one of the least respected posters here and that is saying something. . -

Wrong thread. But you knew that. REMINDER -
Trump knows personnel is policy. Does the President have the authority to hire and fire his agents and underlings? The Constitution says yes. “Personnel is policy.” As far as I have been able to discover, that slogan gained currency in the Reagan administration. But it articulates a truth that political thinkers from Aristotle to Machiavelli to James Madison appreciated. The first line of Article II of the Constitution reads: “The executive Power shall be vested in a President of the United States of America.” That’s “a President.” Only one. Not “a President and a bunch of district court judges.” Not “a President and sundry federal agencies staffed by unaccountable bureaucrats.” Over the course of many decades, the sublimely uncluttered principle articulated at the beginning of Article II has been undermined and stymied, like Gulliver among the Lilliputians, by what we have come to call the administrative state. What is the administrative state? It is difficult to take precise measure of this amorphous, protean, self-engorging organism. But one salient characteristic is its habit of substituting judicial intervention for constitutional principle. “Personnel is policy.” Does the President have the authority to hire and fire his agents and underlings? The Constitution says yes. The administrative state, supported by a battalion of liberal judges and scrambling litigants, says “not so fast.” As I write, the Trump administration is contending with some 300 lawsuits. Many have to do with agencies he wishes to trim or abolish, previously appropriated funds he wishes to divert or sequester, employees he wishes to fire. So far, the Supreme Court has, if in somewhat piecemeal fashion, mostly sided with Trump. The executive, the Court has recognized, ought to be allowed to execute, viz “to carry out or put into effect a plan, order, or course of action.” Inherent in that power is the President’s prerogative of “making the best possible appointments.” Why? because personnel is policy. Agents of the administrative state also understand this principle. It’s just that they believe that power, or at least large swaths of it, should rest with them, not the President. They do not have the Constitution on their side. But they do have a litany of legal decisions which have accumulated like barnacles on the hull of the ship of state, rotting its timbers, impeding its progress. https://thespectator.com/topic/trump-knows-personnel-is-policy/
