Prosecutors are using him to establish 2 things: that Trump was a "micro-manager," particuarly w/money, & that he delegated point people for others to deal with.

Pecker said his was .

This was the jury’s intro to the weird world of Trump's relationship w/ Pecker's supermarket tabloid. It will help establish why Pecker would agree to a operation to aid Trump .

The only consolation I have in having to see the thousands of spineless, racist, illiterate self-interested white Vote Blueberals on here is knowing how deep they're digging their own graves. If Biden wins, he and the DNC continues to do fuck all to protect US minorities and takes the party further right until a GOP win is guaranteed in 2029. If Trump wins, not only is the same shit going to happen, just faster. In both cases they will have destroyed every bit of trust and solidarity with the movements that are already organising.

Oh, and Trump and Biden are both equally likely to withdraw from Ukraine. Trump is buddies with Putin, just like Netanyahu, while Biden is going to have to placate his outraged constituency in some way, and Ukraine is a better sacrificial lamb than Israel will ever be.

We will never, ever, forget, that when push came to shove, Muslim lives became part of the "lesser" evil. All over anxiety of things that you thought might happen, rather than concern for what was already happening to disabled people, BIPOC and the Global South at the hands of your demonic so-called saviour. May you all rot.

#Israel and #Israeli settlers aren't the way they are because of Judaism. That's how settler #colonialism and settlers are. Even #people who are #political radicals, who have experienced #oppression as an ethnicity themselves, etc. can become twisted into believing and doing horrible things as Settlers. Look at the #Irish in #Ireland vs Irish #American settlers #politically. #Australia ended up with a disproportionate amount of human rights and #workers rights #activists in its initial groups of settlers (as #convicts), it lead to nothing in the face of joining settler colonialism. Colonialism routinely makes monsters of the #colonizers.

Scapegoating Judaism just lets other settler colonies off the hook for similar brutalities.
