Trump's Putinization of America: Beyond Foreign Policy

In recent times, the United States has witnessed a political shift that resonates eerily with Russian President Vladimir Putin's autocratic playbook. President Donald Trump's leadership style and policy decisions increasingly reflect a "Putinization" of America, extending far beyond foreign policy into the very fabric of American democracy. This convergence raises critical concerns about the…

in a way i do actually enjoy that ariana released her take on an "express yourself" like this. there are three songs that sound basically the same in this lineage. madonna's original was used sounds appropriated from ballroom culture and and imagery from metropolis (that was really about the old hollywood vibe) to dress up a womens sexual empowerment anthem, lady gaga's "born this way" used sounds from...madonna and also edm, and also the same ballroom references and imagery from scifi b-movies and high fashion to dress up a decisive-but-imprecise gay rights anthem. ari is using sounds from the gay clubs of the last 30 years and a little bit of dance practice/musical theater energy to dress up an anthem about....how everyone needs to shut up about her affair with spongebob. like im not gonna be the person who argues for the moral superiority of lady gaga or god forbid madonna* i just think its funny ariana is barely even trying to do social consciousness with her version

*i belive madonna is genuinely evil in a mustache-twirling joker-from-batman/elon musk way

Okay so obviously Kaiju cults are a thing in the Pacific Rim world, but I'm wondering if there wouldn't be "normal" cults as well? Like, do you think there was some kind of... general cult boom?

First of all, I'm sorry I didn't answer this sooner; I started writing this and then saved it as a draft, and totally forgot about it. I really hope this isn't too late!

So, people in the world of Pacific Rim are living through times that would strike many as apocalyptic. Even if they aren't directly impacted by kaiju, they'd be aware of what they were and what they were doing. Additionally, many people would be economically impacted by everything from iron becoming far scarcer (much of it being redirected to create jaegers; then the wall), plus any product shipped overseas skyrocketing in prices due to massively inflated insurance rates on cargo ships.

Kaiju would create such a seismic shift in everything from people's comprehension of the universe and their place within it to their own personal economic circumstances that the world would be ripe for a general cult boom.

Cults and sketchy movements centered around making money and getting your ideal life would thrive. You'd find a number of get-rich-quick scams promising the secrets of wealth and success if you just follow these ancient secrets that Jesus and all the wise philosophers were toooootally talking about; you just gotta pay money for the books, instructional videos, seminars, whatever.

Just as they are in the real world, a lot of people would be into stuff like manifestation, the Law of Attraction, and the Law of Assumption, which are marketed as personal empowerment, but actually sell victim blaming, and in the case of the Law of Assumption, solipsism. You'd find a number of people claiming that nobody actually dies in kaiju attacks unless you choose to believe that kaiju are real and people are getting killed.

You'd also see a rise of activity within any group with any kind of opinion on the apocalypse whatsoever. In real life, Evangelical Christianity and New Age have been rising in popularity because both of them are very good at preying on the emotionally vulnerable in seemingly-apocalyptic times. (Despite their hatred for each other, these two movements are basically two sides of the same toxic coin; EG, both are millennialist, both have a conspiratorial worldview, both are heavily influenced by New Thought, and both are bent on global assimilation.) It's not hard to imagine we'd see something similar in the Pacific Rim universe.

You'd also likely see cultlike movements around new technological innovations touted as means to solve the problems created by kaiju, similar to how cryptocurrency and so-called AI have been touted as means to solve a gazillion problems they aren't actually capable of solving, and have true believers swept up in a bunch of unjustified hype. Given the massive focus jaegers have in this world, it could happen that there's a movement of people who see jaegers as the ultimate future in civil and military defense. These people would be in favor of the kind of military/police state dystopia we see in Pacific Rim: Uprising.

You might also see cultlike adoration of some wealthy yet sketchy tech figure who promises solutions to the kaiju problem, similar to how Elon Musk has a cultlike following.

Like basically, if people in the Pacific Rim universe act anything like people do in the real world, there'd be all kinds of cults pop up, with varying degrees of relation to kaiju and jaegers.

The family of Ruth Bader Ginsberg emerges victorious

BREAKING: The family of Ruth Bader Ginsberg emerges victorious as the foundation that was planning to give the RBG award to MAGA billionaire Elon Musk and Rupert Murdoch cancels the award ceremony entirely.

Julie Opperman, chair of the foundation, said that "the last thing we intended was to offend the family and friends of RBG."

"Our purpose was only to remember her and to honor her leadership," she added. "And, while we believe each of the honorees is worthy of our respect for their leadership and their notable contributions, the Foundation has decided that the planned ceremony in April 2024 will be canceled."

Ginsberg's family slammed the Opperman Foundation last week after the organization announced its plans to honor the far-right figures. Obviously, RBG's legacy stands in opposition to everything that Musk and Murdoch stand for.

This is exactly the outcome that RBG's family was hoping for.

They previously said that the foundation had "strayed far from the original mission of the award and from what Justice Ginsburg stood for" and that it was an "affront" to her memory.

"Her legacy is one of deep commitment to justice and to the proposition that all persons deserve what she called ‘equal citizenship stature’ under the Constitution," the family in said in their statement. "She was a singularly powerful voice for the equality and empowerment of women, including their ability to control their own bodies."

The late justice's son Jim Ginsburg said that choosing Musk and Murdoch was a "desecration of my mother’s memory.”

"When you think of trying to create a more just society, which of course was Mom’s ultimate goal, those are probably about the last names that would come to mind," he added.

So Trump is going to need a cellmate. If Musk's empowerment of hate speech on (former) Twitter leads to violence then he may be held accountable.

A paywall for Twitter? 😝😂

Elon Musk: Twitter (sorry, X) could go behind a paywall

Musk should pay users for visiting – not the other way around.

To those who think that the nightmare at Twitter will end soon and that Musk will go away: AIN'T GONNA HAPPEN!

Time to ditch Twitter if you are foolishly still active there. Seriously, would you join a social media platform run by Ron DeSantis or Vladimir Putin? Is your data truly safe with Elon Musk?

[sepdet]

Meanwhile, do you know what report Kamala Harris is associated with?

The title isn't very sexy sounding,but I think this 45-page document should be better known than it is:

So what is this thing?

When Biden took office, he appointed Harris to chair his taskforce on workers and unions.

The assignment: research what his administration could do despite Republican and Supreme Court obstruction to support workers forming unions, unions' collective bargaining, the right to strike without the sort of retaliation Trump praised to Elon Musk, and worker safety which Trump imperiled by slashing regulations and gutting OSHA.

Did Biden implement every single one of the recommendations put forward by Harris' committee? Of course not. But here's what Harris' workers taskforce has launched or monitored since writing that report:

Now, contrast THAT with Project 2025.

after claiming in the recent presidential debate that he has nothing to do with project 2025, footage from trump’s keynote speech at the Heritage Foundation in 2022 proves the opposite: that project 2025 is “critical” and has “laid the groundwork” for what he plans to do if re-elected

project 2025 is very real and if you don’t think he’s going to use it or that it won’t impact you in any way, you are wrong

read it, get informed, and go vote

Leadership Lead: Guiding with Vision and Purpose

Effective leadership is the cornerstone of success in any organization. A true leadership lead is not just about holding a position of authority—it’s about inspiring, guiding, and empowering others to achieve a shared vision. Whether you are leading a team, a business, or a community, understanding the principles of strong leadership can make all the difference.

What Does It Mean to Be a Leadership Lead?

A leadership lead is someone who takes charge, not just in title but in action. They set the direction, foster a positive culture, and motivate those around them to reach new heights. This requires a blend of vision, adaptability, and emotional intelligence. A great leadership lead is not simply a boss but a mentor, strategist, and advocate for growth.

Key Traits of Effective Leadership

Visionary Thinking: Leaders with a clear vision inspire confidence and align their teams toward common goals. A leadership lead sees the bigger picture and knows how to get there.

Emotional Intelligence: Understanding and managing emotions, as well as recognizing the emotions of others, is crucial for strong leadership.

Adaptability: The ability to navigate change and make strategic decisions in uncertain situations is a mark of a strong leader.

Communication Skills: Clear and effective communication fosters trust and ensures everyone is on the same page.

Empowerment: Great leaders delegate, trust, and encourage team members to take initiative and grow in their roles.

How to Develop Leadership Lead Skills

1. Invest in Personal Growth

2. Seek Mentorship

Connecting with experienced leaders can provide valuable insights and guidance. Platforms like Roots Inspire offer mentorship opportunities to help aspiring leaders refine their skills. Learning from someone who has walked the path before you can accelerate your leadership journey.

Good leaders listen more than they speak. Understanding different perspectives allows for better decision-making and fosters a culture of mutual respect.

4. Lead by Example

Your actions set the tone for your team. Show integrity, accountability, and commitment. Employees and team members look up to leaders who practice what they preach.

5. Foster a Collaborative Environment

Elon Musk’s Reckless Gestures and the Empowerment of Extremism

Elon Musk’s straight-arm gesture during his speech on Inauguration Day has unleashed a firestorm of controversy, and rightly so. Whether born of ignorance or malice, such an action—eerily reminiscent of a Nazi salute—has been embraced by extremists and neo-Nazis as a symbol of validation and encouragement. The fact that Musk has failed to explicitly deny the intent behind the gesture only deepens the troubling implications of his actions.

Musk, a man who wields immense influence as one of the world’s richest individuals and owner of a global communication platform, must understand that his actions carry weight. On a day meant to signify the peaceful transfer of power and unity, his gesture instead provided ammunition to far-right extremists who already feel emboldened in a political climate rife with division. Extremist groups like White Lives Matter and prominent white nationalists openly celebrated Musk’s actions, taking them as a signal that their hateful ideologies have a place in mainstream discourse.

The argument that this was an “awkward gesture” or a “moment of enthusiasm” is woefully inadequate. In an era where hate crimes are on the rise, where antisemitic and racist rhetoric is surging, and where political violence is no longer hypothetical, Musk’s failure to provide a clear and unequivocal explanation is inexcusable. Public figures, especially those with global reach, must wield their influence responsibly.

This is not an isolated incident. Musk’s ownership of X (formerly Twitter) has already been marred by a dangerous uptick in hate speech and the proliferation of extremist content under the guise of “free speech absolutism.” His platform has become a haven for those who seek to divide and destabilize, with watchdogs and civil rights organizations sounding the alarm about its role in amplifying hate.

Musk’s gesture, whether intentional or not, is a potent reminder that symbols matter. To dismiss it as trivial is to ignore the power of such symbols to embolden those who perpetrate hate and violence. Public figures cannot afford to be careless with their actions, especially when those actions are celebrated by groups that seek to undermine democracy and human rights.

This moment calls for accountability and transparency. Musk owes the public, and particularly the communities harmed by the ideologies his gesture has emboldened, a clear and unequivocal statement denouncing extremism in all its forms. Failing to do so not only undermines his credibility but also signals complicity in the normalization of hate.

Hate thrives in ambiguity. Musk’s silence and deflection are not neutral—they are dangerous. It is time for him to recognize that leadership requires more than technological innovation; it demands moral clarity.

FUCK YOU, ZUCKERBERG…

You spineless, Cheeto-mushroom-gobbling, knee-bending, anemic zombiedroid, hypocritical, scared, little ass-kissing, greedy fuck. Let’s not pretend you’re anything more than a glorified tech parasite who happened to hit the lottery by taking a college networking idea—one that wasn’t even entirely yours—and turning it into a platform that metastasized into a social cancer. You rode the coattails of a lucky break and daddy’s financial cushion, mistaking this fortuitous alignment of stars as some kind of testament to your intelligence or value to society. Spoiler alert: it’s not.

Let’s get one thing clear, Mark. You are not a genius. You are not an innovator. You are not some great architect of the digital age. You’re a mediocre coder with the social grace of a damp napkin who got lucky enough to stumble onto a half-decent idea at the right time. Facebook succeeded because of timing, not brilliance. It succeeded because people were eager for connection in an increasingly online world—not because you’re the next coming of Einstein. And now, as the steward of what could have been a tool for empowerment and education, you’ve reduced it to a cesspool of misinformation, hate, and mind-numbing drivel, all in the name of shareholder value.

But today’s move? Today, you reached a new level of pathetic. Dismantling fact-checking on Facebook and Instagram under the guise of “free expression”? Are you fucking serious? Fact-checking on your platforms was already a joke—a performative, too-little-too-late Band-Aid slapped on a gaping wound of misinformation. But at least it was something. Now you’ve decided even that was too much effort because—let’s be honest—you’re scared. Scared of losing ad revenue. Scared of pissing off the MAGA crowd. Scared of Elon Musk, Trump, and the legion of anti-intellectual sycophants who’ve been barking about “censorship” while they spread lies faster than wildfire.

Let’s not forget, you initially had the balls to stand up to Trump. Remember when Facebook banned him after January 6th? You made a big show of pretending to care about democracy and accountability. And yet, here you are, rolling out the red carpet for the same demagogue and his cronies because you’re terrified of losing relevance. You’ve bent the knee just like Musk—a man so desperate for approval he turned Twitter into a farcical echo chamber for his own fragile ego. You’re no better, Mark. You’ve just done it with a slightly more polished veneer of “corporate responsibility.” But don’t think for a second that we don’t see through it.

What’s particularly infuriating is the sheer audacity with which you and your ilk—Musk, Bezos, Thiel, all of you wannabe philosopher-kings of the tech world—pretend your wealth equates to wisdom. As if the money you’ve hoarded and the empires you’ve built by exploiting workers and hijacking public discourse somehow make you qualified to shape society. Newsflash: your billions don’t make you insightful, and your platforms don’t make you indispensable. You’re not architects of the future; you’re caretakers of the prisons you’ve built for yourselves, gilded cages of your own making where your only concern is how to hoard more wealth and power while avoiding accountability.

Let’s talk about accountability, shall we? For years, you’ve enabled the worst aspects of humanity to flourish under the guise of “connecting the world.” Racism, misinformation, political manipulation, mental health crises—you name it, your platforms have amplified it. And every time someone has tried to hold you accountable, you’ve deflected, you’ve gaslit, you’ve hidden behind PR campaigns and hollow promises of reform. Now, you’ve abandoned even the pretense of caring. Stripping away fact-checking is your white flag of surrender to the very forces you once claimed to oppose. It’s a tacit admission that you care only about your bottom line, even if it means letting your platforms rot society from the inside out.

The hypocrisy is staggering. You and Musk and the rest of the tech overlords love to position yourselves as champions of free speech and innovation, but in reality, you’re nothing more than opportunistic cowards. You latch onto whatever ideology is most convenient at the moment—whether it’s pandering to liberals to secure early growth or cozying up to authoritarian populists when the tide turns. It’s not about principles; it’s about survival. You’re chameleons without conviction, mercenaries for profit at the expense of progress.

And let’s not forget the irony of all this. For all your talk of “free expression,” you and your platforms have done more to stifle meaningful discourse than any government ever could. You’ve created echo chambers, monetized outrage, and reduced complex issues to bite-sized headlines designed to enrage rather than inform. Your platforms are not bastions of free speech; they are factories of division, places where truth goes to die and lies are given a megaphone.

So fuck you, Zuckerberg. Fuck you for your cowardice. Fuck you for your greed. Fuck you for pretending to care about the world while doing everything in your power to destroy it. You are not a visionary. You are not a leader. You are a scared little man clinging to relevance in a world that’s increasingly tired of your bullshit. And the sooner your gilded empire crumbles under the weight of its own hypocrisy, the better off we’ll all be.

Leadership in Entrepreneurship: Key Traits for Success

https://enterprisechronicles.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/11/20-Leadership-in-Entrepreneurship_-Key-Traits-for-Success-Image-by-kasto.jpg

In the dynamic world of entrepreneurship, the role of leadership is paramount. Leadership in entrepreneurship not only shapes the vision and direction of a business but also influences team dynamics and company culture. Entrepreneurs face various challenges, and effective leadership can be the difference between success and failure. In this article, we will explore the essential qualities of successful entrepreneurial leaders and how they can drive their businesses to new heights.

Understanding Leadership in Entrepreneurship

At its core, leadership in entrepreneurship involves the ability to inspire and guide a team toward achieving common goals. An entrepreneur must be more than just visionary; they need to communicate their ideas effectively, motivate their team, and create an environment conducive to innovation and collaboration. The entrepreneurial landscape is often unpredictable, and effective leaders must adapt their strategies to navigate these challenges.

Key Traits of Successful Entrepreneurial Leaders

1. Visionary Thinking

A successful entrepreneur must possess a clear vision for their business. This involves not only setting long-term goals but also developing a roadmap to achieve them. Visionary leaders can see opportunities where others see obstacles. They inspire their teams to share this vision and work towards it collectively.

For instance, Elon Musk’s vision for sustainable energy and space exploration has transformed industries and inspired countless entrepreneurs worldwide. Such visionary thinking is a crucial aspect of leadership in businesses.

2. Effective Communication

Communication is a cornerstone of effective leadership. Entrepreneurs must articulate their ideas clearly and listen to their team members’ feedback. Open lines of communication foster collaboration and innovation, enabling leaders to make informed decisions.

In the context of leadership in entrepreneurship, effective communication also includes the ability to convey passion and enthusiasm. When a leader communicates their passion for their vision, it resonates with their team and cultivates a shared sense of purpose.

3. Resilience and Adaptability

Entrepreneurship is fraught with challenges and setbacks. Resilient leaders can navigate failures and adapt to changing circumstances. They view challenges as learning opportunities rather than insurmountable obstacles.

This trait is particularly significant in leadership in entrepreneurship, where the ability to pivot and adjust strategies in response to market changes can determine a company’s survival. For example, many businesses had to adapt quickly during the COVID-19 pandemic, demonstrating resilience in the face of adversity.

4. Empathy and Emotional Intelligence

Effective leaders understand that their team members are their greatest asset. Empathy allows leaders to connect with their employees on a personal level, fostering a supportive work environment. Emotional intelligence helps leaders navigate interpersonal relationships and manage conflicts within their teams.

In leadership in businesses, empathetic leaders can create a culture of trust and collaboration. This not only enhances employee satisfaction but also boosts productivity and creativity.

5. Decision-Making Skills

Entrepreneurial leaders are often required to make tough decisions quickly. Effective decision-making involves analyzing data, considering multiple perspectives, and weighing potential risks and rewards. Strong leaders rely on their intuition while also being open to input from their team.

The ability to make sound decisions is a hallmark of leadership in entrepreneurship. Successful leaders know when to take calculated risks and when to pivot away from a failing strategy.

6. Delegation and Empowerment

One common pitfall for many entrepreneurs is the inability to delegate tasks effectively. Strong leaders recognize that they cannot do everything themselves. By empowering their team members and delegating responsibilities, leaders can focus on strategic planning and growth.

In the realm of leadership in entrepreneurship, delegating tasks not only increases efficiency but also encourages team members to take ownership of their work, leading to increased innovation and accountability.

7. Continuous Learning

https://enterprisechronicles.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/11/20.3-Continuous-Learning-Image-by-PeopleImages-from-Getty-Images-Signature.jpg

The business landscape is constantly evolving, and successful leaders commit to continuous learning. They seek feedback, invest in their personal development, and stay informed about industry trends and advancements.

In the context of leadership in businesses, a commitment to lifelong learning demonstrates adaptability and a willingness to evolve. This approach can inspire teams to embrace change and seek personal and professional growth.

The Importance of Leadership in Entrepreneurship

Effective leadership is critical to the success of any entrepreneurial venture. Leaders set the tone for their organizations, influencing company culture, employee engagement, and overall performance. They create an environment where innovation thrives, and team members feel valued and motivated.

Furthermore, strong leadership can significantly impact stakeholder relationships, including investors, customers, and partners. A leader who communicates a clear vision and demonstrates commitment and integrity builds trust, which is essential for long-term success.

Conclusion

In conclusion, leadership in entrepreneurship is a multifaceted endeavor that requires a unique blend of skills and traits. Visionary thinking, effective communication, resilience, empathy, decision-making skills, delegation, and a commitment to continuous learning are all critical components of successful entrepreneurial leadership. As the entrepreneurial landscape continues to evolve, the importance of strong leadership cannot be overstated. Entrepreneurs who cultivate these qualities are well-positioned to navigate challenges, inspire their teams, and drive their businesses toward success. Embracing these traits will not only enhance their leadership capabilities but also contribute to a thriving entrepreneurial ecosystem.

I haven’t been reading too much that convinces me that the government, the Pentagon, would be better off, despite written books and Army veteran status. The hotel allegation in 2017. It's been reported that investigators found the woman had emphasized remembering saying no a lot, he blocked the door with his body, alcohol was involved and she received a financial settlement. That sounds unpleasant:

I’m not a seasoned politician. Back to contemporary events.

Prince Henry.

The world was on edge reading of your tattoo inking, and then sad to learn that singer, Jelly Roll, holding a tattoo needle with such certainty, didn’t tweak a vein-like artery beneath your skin. A hell of a letdown. I’m sure you get that a lot. It was a publicity trick, like your rented courtship, your store-bought wedding, the rise and fall of your tit for tat marriage, your living arrangement, your international humanitarianism, your pleasant and folksy attitude, your female independence female empowerment female self-worth hypocritical noise, your rape book, your exposed Netflix films, award speeches, and the fungus-filled shitting virtual sphere of Twitter.

Log into Twitter and it suddenly clicks that it’s a place where Prince Harry antagonizes little children of all ages, reminding them of a large tatted swath, braids for bxtches, insinuating that they’re neither a rich celebrity nor a recipient of any perks from a non-binding illegal contract of a minor, but they need to keep their mouth sutured nonetheless. You’re Father of the Year. It’s also a place where he etches well-crafted punchlines for celebrity clients that are scrolls of racist, rapist, homophobic and violent uncouth dehumanization so that their careers become a type of casualty. I have no idea why you’re a sought-after TED Talk speaker when BetterUp is a Twitter cover or tactical ruse. Bed-Her. Clever. That is, if you’re a charley horse rising sexpest.

You’re not enlisting a respected professional. He’s the leader behind unruly protests, workplace violence, terrorism, wartime atrocities, kidnapping, and child suicide. He gets paid to type: Too Famous To Be A Pedophile. Lampedo Porn. Pedophile Drip. British Pedoroyal Family. Weepy Soy Pedophile, a bilingual declaration of minored love. His top-paying tech service is to provide Pulitzer gold like: Amen Noir. Daniel Knight. The Upchucks. No Minors HISSS. Steely Dad. Galactic King. Justsome666. Pedo Paige. Hurtcore. This quote: I'd fuck the shit outta her god im lonely. Rapist party-boy hazing at the center of world events became the norm that society accepts and for reasons still unclear is blamed on Elon Musk. One Justin Bieber fan club account labelled Juskin Bieber, he writes: cause the boy is mine, inhaling it, face of an angel, Moneywhore, JB Hooker News, i like celery.

Nobody obeys the criminal cunty ramblings of a vacuous daddy’s boy able to flee persecution by his scores of minders and publicists.

For years, since infancy, you’ve been telling everyone within earshot that your wholesome-looking family will castrate. It’s not a constructive activity for a middle-aged man and requires zero aptitude. You must’ve violated the terms of your Twitter employment contract by now. Presumably, Twitter trends, free content, and goreshit X-graphic layout means complicity in killing your children and rewarding its sole author and CEO with bloodthirsty lighthearted tweets that are covered as news stories. It means life goes on with his high salaries, his Netflix deals, his shiny awards, and his intimate conversations of dishonesty known as journalistic interviews.

To sit idly by and claim a jailed position must be comfy cozy—it’s also a betrayal of good intentions and high-minded ethics. But what can important people do?

Stop interviewing this non-disclosure-wide-sellout couple. I don’t think it’s a breach of contract in the entertainment business. The only information that you’ll be spreading throughout society is that you wish to prevent child suicide. How odious.

Stop hiring him for speeches with headsets and a microphone on the grand stage. The regaling Prince title no longer equates traditional meaningful human worth or prestige in decade 4. Think of the value he contributes. He twists words, phrases and a painful medical condition to promote crowned present-day pink pedophilia ownership. I don’t get the social benefits to the televised buffoonery of a would-be rapist who tweets from hundreds of accounts labelled KD Slut MILF.

Is that what I deserve? After an underwhelming adulthood dissolving into nothingness that I can never humanly reclaim?

At Twitter, Inc. Prince Harry Mountbatten-Windsor, the Duke of Sussex, is a misplaced civilian agitator abusing his position to fight off an absentee movie star by way of algorithms and babbled code in a language structured to hurt me and young students everywhere.

Along with Meghan McCain, who surgically fights off Harry’s bitch-about carved tweets, certain celebrities have been the bullseye for Prince Harry’s most egregious, high-traffic, vitriolic displays of digital retribution. I will never excuse nor defend wife or partner abuse or child abuse and endangerment of any kind. Everybody knows my story, but that doesn’t give anyone special dispensation to act a certain way that is illegal, combative or unsavory. Not saying these actors have committed such acts. I’ve noticed through an unobstructed Internet view, across several platforms, that he has accounts dedicated to Mel Gibson and his derogatory anti-Semitic comments. I find two facts interesting about Mel: his infamous arrest happened in July 2006.

Six. X. Mel Gibson has known for a long time what the House of Windsor’s intentions were for me, physically. I told you that Prince Harry said only months ago that he wanted to live in my attic. Second, out of all the Hollywood movies an Oscar-winning director can direct, he chooses the movie, Hacksaw Ridge. Which was released in 2016. I don’t believe he harbors ill will toward Jewish people and was probably referring to the unfathomable raping proxy clause that you possess and I think he was worried I wouldn’t figure it out. Not to mention that he’s been in the same industry as Tom, my real pen pal, who your family royally knifed in the back.

Interesting that Nora Ephron directed the 1994 movie, Mixed Nuts, a French adaptation. A Manhattan director known for her first-leaf, autumn knit sweater and warm rom-com style decided to up and direct a movie with a genital mutilation innuendo title about a suicide and crisis prevention hotline during Christmas in the 90s.

Comedian and actor, Kevin Hart, was due to host the glitzy Oscars in 2019. Kevin Hart was dropped as Oscar host on December 7, 2018 amid controversy about his past anti-gay tweets. The severity of Kevin’s homophobia on Twitter is repugnant. I’ve read them. Harry wrote them. I have screengrabs. Harry has played the innocent avenging wordsmith locksmith for too long.

I want to mention a trip that Meghan and Harry took in 2018. The 16-day tour was from October 16 to October 31, going to Australia, New Zealand, Fiji and Tonga. Sixes. This vacation took place five months after they fudged a wedding where the groom scheduled the publication of his Tweets via a timer, as if his wedding day was a live “Clue” farce comedy. With sufficient enthusiasm, it was reported that Prince Harry had to go it alone for part of the time in Australia while a pregnant Duchess took time to rest. So let me rephrase, this paid-for couple is advertising honeymooned biological pregnancy gossip one day before the birthday of an unmarried childless careerless middle-aged woman that her red neon husband spy-cam watched online every day aboard Twitter. Add the symbolic geographical location where they visited: Queensland’s Fraser Island, or K’gari, as it is known. I have a screengrab. You are a bar crawl disguised as a royal couple, lacking integrity by way of imitation, capable only of spouting falsehoods that smarter people on your team scriptwrite for you.

Who else noticed the front-page honeymoon vagabond couple: Kids.

Hamuera Ellis-Erihe, 16, from New Zealand killed himself in 2018.

Martin Loeffen-Romagnoli, 15, from New Zealand killed himself in 2018.

Summer Mills-Metcalf, 14, from New Zealand killed herself in 2018.

Maaia Reremoana Marshall, 14, from New Zealand killed herself in 2018.

James Patira Murray, 12, from New Zealand killed himself in 2018.

Tom Cruise has not visited Australia or New Zealand recently with a gimmick wife, declaring a pregnancy over lunchtime tea.

But what can Team Meghan do? What I outlined in 25 blog posts: a public divorce from the rapist pedophile contract manager who calls his hired wife a bronzer skank. That’s one thing.

Divorce.
