Stalling on releasing the Epstein files and pardoning some drug dealers while killing others makes perfect sense through the lens of Trump Inc being a traditional organized crime family with branches in gambling, drugs and prostitution. He’s killing his rivals right out in the open.

EV/NEV share in China is already 50%+ — not 40. And exports? China sent 6.4m cars abroad in 2024, crushing Japan’s 4.2m and Germany’s 3.2m.

It is pretty obvious that Trump is fixated on the use of an Autopen to sign Executive Orders, because somewhere depep in the festering, demented recesses of his rotting brain, there is a dim awareness that members of his Cabinet are using the Autopen to sign Executive Orders without him.

I’ll spare you the rest of Trump’s statement where he calls Tim Waltz the R-word & hate mongers immigrants—
