This makes complete sense. The Truth Social post sent out publicly by Trump instead of as a DM to Bondi, didn’t read like any of his usual posts.

And it just confirms how vengeful he is.

Mueller, She Wrote @muellershewrote.com · 9h

NEW: Trump meant to send a Truth Social DM to Pam Bondi about indicting his rivals. That sounds like official business, so I'm filing a FOIA for her DMs, plus those of five other cabinet members. My latest: www.muellershewrote.com/p/my-latest-...

My Latest FOIA: Trump's Truth Social DMs

Recently, Trump posted a message to Pam Bondi that was meant to be a direct message. I want to know what other official messages he's sending to cabinet members.

There seems to be an unending supply of people who want nothing more than publicly whine when all the rest of us just get on with life.

Why ?

Fame?

Money?

For sure it’s not to solve their “problem”

Dr Lindsay Maxwell @parisdaguerre.bsky.social · 20h

If it does, it will be pulled after Day 1 and a new roll out scheme implemented.

My instinct is that this scheme, if it were to be approved, would create a further enormous drain on public funds and be a complete white elephant.

Readers of Private Eye will be interested to hear there's an opportunity being talked up here for Musgrave and Corney (backed by Houchen) to become billionaires, if the decision goes their (AI datacentre) way.

Trump will rail at Maria Machado, rail at Norway, whine, bitch & no doubt take Maduro’s side. We will never hear the end of it.

But while he is distracted the Dems need to reach out to her and ask her to consult for them.

Prof Christina Pagel @chrischirp.bsky.social · 2d

A powerful speech on the Nobel Peace Prize but I suspect it will send Trump into a frenzy today. Especially the pointed remarks about democracy and integrity.

Please can she coach the Dems in the USA?

Anne Applebaum @anneapplebaum.bsky.social · 2d

Congratulations to Maria Corina Machado, recipient of the Nobel Peace Prize - her incredible optimism has already changed her country. I spoke to her, and wrote about her, at the beginning of this year:

Maduro is still in place, but a pro-democracy movement is transforming the beleaguered country.

This is nothing more than a continuation of the president’s desperate weaponization of our justice system.

I am not fearful — I am fearless.

We will fight these baseless charges aggressively, and my office will continue to fiercely protect New Yorkers and their rights..

Besides linking Tylenol in pregnant women to autism, RFK Jr. now says circumcision is part of the reason why kids are autistic.

"Children who are circumcised early have double the rate of autism, and it's highly likely because they're given Tylenol. None of this is positive..."

The UK’s independent scientific bodies are highly vulnerable to politicisation - over the past 5 months I've been working with @martinmckee.bsky.social to map out their vulnerabilities and it's not good news.
