I put these in a SAV forum but thought all in one place might be good since there was a question about reposting to other forums. I don’t have twitter or facebook accounts so if anyone wants to repost (I'm not asking people to), here they are. Please no attribution. I captioned the photos but that’s it. Anyway, without further adoodoo…

Gym looked the other way when his team doctor was creeping out and fondling Jordan’s student athletes - just like any GOP wormy little asshole would. Now, Gym sees the photo of all the classified, top secret, SCI, and SAP that came out of trump’s desk at Mar-a-Lago and decides to ridicule the threat to national security of the Time magazine cover. He focuses on the think almost out of frame and ignores the pile proving trump’s crimes. Gym Jordan runs the GOP Judiciary account. No Gym, the Time cover isn’t a threat to national security but that pile of top secret classified documents next to it is, you stupid pencil-neck traitorous piece of shit. How do you ignore that pile of unsecured documents likely all seen and photographed by Russia, China, and god knows who else…

Melania, always on the leading edge of very damn little, has launched a new line of NFT (non-fungible token) art for sale. NFTs are perfect for the trump family - they can crank out little pieces of “art” that are “unique“ but really aren’t and sell them at huge profits - virtually (get it?) all profit. It’s like printing money if people are stupid enough to buy that shit. And before we reveal the former prostitute’s line of beautiful artwork, just a word about North Korea - they are all over cryptocurrency and NFT like soy sauce on rice. They’ve stolen millions and millions of dollars worth of them. $100,000,000 worth last year. Stealing crypto is kind of their thing and in part how Kim Jong Un funds the “Hermit Kingdom”. Crypto and NFTs are only as safe and secure as each owner’s ability to protect them from determined and skilled hackers. Anybody here think they can protect their digital assets that well that investments are safe ”enough”? The NK hackers have earned a reputation. NK was also busted running a crypto exchange to find targets or something. I don’t understand it all either. No matter, NK just runs around hoovering up NFTs and crypto. https://www.reuters.com/technology/nfts-worth-100-million-stolen-past-year-elliptic-says-2022-08-24/ So let’s see those beautiful works of art for sale by the former first prostitute… Here’s three… Oh yeah, she’s not the artist. Just the subject. And it’s a company running a script that cranks out the NFTs and their crypto credentials. Not Melania. Anyone buying this shit would do better to just send our embedded Russian agent $50 and call it good. According to CNN, Melania is busying herself with this new grift. Good for her. Her pig-dog husband needs the cash for all his lawsuit and criminal defenses. https://www.cnn.com/2022/08/30/politics/melania-trump-mar-a-lago-search/index.html Stock up on worthless digital art of the first “lady”, her hubbs, and probably their dog and cat. Oh wait - the trumps don’t have pets unless you count Eric… I hear Melania might feature an Ivanka line. We don’t know what they will look like but here’s a guess… Step right up! Melania has you covered! "It's weird," says a former Trump adviser of the former first lady's promotion of a for-profit business. "To be so blatant about making money from USA-themed collectibles." Whoever said that apparently forgot what family he/she was talking about…

New Politico article says this: “Prosecutors also added in another court filing unsealed Friday that the ongoing criminal probe into government records stashed at Trump’s Florida home has involved “a significant number of civilian witnesses” whose safety could be jeopardized if their identities were revealed.” https://www.politico.com/news/2022/08/26/trump-mar-a-lago-affidavit-release-00053944 Here’s what many may not realize about SCI/SAP - it’s the big times. The obvious one is any people helping the US and named in those documents are likely in big danger or already dead. If you search for mysterious Russian deaths on a search engine, there’s quite a few oligarchs that have turned up dead that had nothing really remarkable about them. Wouldn’t surprise me at all if their names were on documents in trump‘s possession. But what people also don’t know about that level of information is knowing it can make you a target. You know the movies/books where the scientists get kidnapped and tortured for information? That’s the level you’re talking about here. People with those clearances and access have a level of danger associated with having them. If trump actually did show his guests those documents, they could now be targets for kidnap and torture to reveal anything they might remember. Who knows how likely that is but it’s certainly a possibility. But here’s a whole new set of wrinkles for trump, his guests that he apparently showed the documents too, and the documents themselves. There was a Russian gal at Mar-a-Lago, presumably a full-on spy, and trump thought she was some kind of Rothschild heiress. And having a vagina to grab probably made her quite attractive to dotard. This might mitigate the risk to guests somewhat if Inna gained access to the documents themselves. At least Russia wouldn’t have the need or want to incur the risk, but think of how many other countries might want to know secrets too. In the big leagues, people do get kidnapped, tied up, beaten, shot, drugged, and even sliced up bit by bit if they know things others want. Anonymity is protection if you know things like were probably in trump‘s basement. The Mar-a-Lago crowd gets to now deal with being people who know too much. Stupid fucking idiot trump. He probably compromised this country’s national security worse than any spy or traitor in history. Oh yeah - Russia state TV said they were already studying trump’s documents. It’s looking like that boast may have had some truth to it but hard to know. https://www.newsweek.com/moscow-already-studying-top-secret-records-trump-raid-russian-media-1733440

Watching MSNBC this morning and there is a segment on climate change with Bill Nye. It’s good to hear Bill not pull punches like others are doing. He’s got a new series on Peacock where he explores various threats to life on earth. In the interview, Willie Geist was gently minimizing the risk. So many couch questions and comments with lots of uncertainty about temperature increases. The impression is that this current heat wave is an outlier and everyone can just cross their fingers that next year will be back to normal. The current weather used to be outlier behavior but as temperatures have increased, what used to be normal weather has become the outlier and excess heat has become the norm. This animated chart by climate scientist Ed Hawkins and shows the issue. The temperatures have been increasing for a century but most of the increase has come recently. The year to year changes have been getting bigger. The heating is accelerating. Note how the last few years in that graph almost stand alone. That trend indicates the coming years will also be radically warmer. Anyone hoping the climate will spontaneously cool is pissing into the wind. That is not going to happen. We may have a cooler year every now and then but those are now the outliers. This chart is actual global temperatures. Real data in the can. It’s not a simulation. Our only solution to this is to stop pumping CO2 into the atmosphere. That’s the heat engine that feeds everything else. We can shade the earth with aerosols or even space shades but crop yields will suffer. If we want temperatures to return to the normals we had 10-20 years ago, that means pulling the CO2 back out that we pumped in over the last 20-40 years. That is gigatons of CO2. If we leave the CO2 in the atmosphere, it traps more heat and further acidifies the oceans. I don’t want to give the impression this is easy. It’s not. And it takes a lot of energy to do. It’s expensive. We have two huge hurdles and the more we do now to mitigate this, the less CO2 makes it into the atmosphere and the less we have to remove. But the people who add uncertainty to what is coming do a disservice. Not attacking Geist and he wasn’t overly optimistic. But he left the door open for uncertainty and there is none. Uncertainty lets others think there is wiggle room. Maybe it’s not even true? It lets others think we have time to waste. We don’t. Anything we do to reduce CO2 emissions buys time but the way things are going, we will probably run out of time as more ecosystems collapse, more species disappear, etc. If we want the environment to survive - which is necessary for us to survive - we need to get busy. Back in 1973, OPEC embargoed oil to the US and we immediately went into a lower energy state. Auto manufacturers started making smaller and more fuel efficient vehicles. People started adding solar panels to heat air and water directly. People pushed for expanded public transportation, bikes, etc. The difference was that was forced on us and we responded. Now it’s a “choice” (kind of like getting vaccinated). I'm not hopeful but maybe the people of earth will surprise me. But there is no uncertainty except that around when enough ecosystems collapse that countries start starving or if we will have the will to prevent that - if we aren’t already past the point of no return. We can get far enough along that nothing we do changes the outcome. Those are the tipping points and why we are flirting with absolute disaster. If we don’t act, though, all that bad stuff will come true. It just will. You can only turn the heat up so much before we kill the planet. Edit - And for anyone who might be wondering how this could be? How could a whole planet have let things get this bad? Money. The fossil fuel industry was flush with cash when the consequences of global warming were first looked at in depth - at Exxon under Rex Tillerson. They turned their standards organization (American Petroleum Institute) into a propaganda mouthpiece and invested heavily in republican campaigns. Oilmen and other fossil fuel candidates even landed high offices where they could influence and control legislation. It’s why the oil industry is STILL subsidized with taxpayer money. It wasn’t just here. Various oil/coal/gas producing nations have heavily fossil fuel supported governments. Saudi Arabia, Brazil, Russia, etc. The fossil fuel industry has kept a stranglehold on governments to prevent any reduction in use. Ask Joe Manchin, Dick Cheney, or George W. Bush about their stances on fossil fuels and we got off lucky with fuel efficiency standards, clean air laws, etc. It’s far worse in other countries where you have Putin and MBS controlling things. The world is facing a very dim and expensive future now. We can’t just stop using fossil fuels. We now are to the point that we will also need to scrub many gigatons (see graph) of CO2 out of the atmosphere. The earth is too hot now and even if we stopped all fossil fuel use today, because we aren’t at equilibrium, the planet will still continue to heat for years. This is all thanks to the total disregard for the planet’s future and the blood lust for money and the ability to live like kings - for a while. And what’s worse is they knew what they were doing. Rex Tillerson sure knew - Even now when you see the ads talking up the fossil fuel industry where they brag about taxes and jobs - it’s all excuses to keep the money coming. They know it yet they continue to lie and deceive while sentencing the planet to a heat death. https://www.greenpeace.org/usa/fighting-climate-chaos/exxon-and-the-oil-industry-knew-about-climate-crisis/exxons-climate-denial-history-a-timeline/ https://www.reuters.com/article/us-exxon-mobil-lawsuit/former-exxon-ceo-tillerson-denies-misleading-investors-in-climate-case-idUSKBN1X912M 1000 million metric tons = 1 gigaton

The asshole stank is so very strong with the pencil-neck cocaine-addicted asshole. DoTrumpJr thinks student loan forgiveness is ”insane and disgusting”. Note also the virtue signaling to blue collar workers as the traitor tot tries to appeal to trump's base. DoTrumpJr seems to have forgotten about their own unaccredited “university” that took money and just printed diplomas in yet another trump family grift and scam. #TrumpUniversity

After Trump called Elaine Chao “crazy“, someone asked McConnell if he had any reaction to Trump’s comment about Chao, the Kentucky Republican simply responded, “No.” Chao is McConnell’s wife. See the connection? 😁 Such manly men! I wonder if they might have more reaction if someone insulted Vladimir Putin?

Seems “tourists” are taking photos of Russian artillery emplacements and posting them. The Ukraine military then uses the geotag coordinates to launch attacks. That’s technology put to good use. (FYI - Most or all phones can now do this. Be sure you know your settings and if your phone is tagging photos with locations before posting them publicly or even sharing them. You could be revealing your or others’ location to anyone who can access the photos - like our Ukraine friends are doing.) https://www.newsweek.com/russia-crimea-air-defense-yevpatoria-photos-vacationers-1735611

https://www.newsweek.com/russia-putin-kremlin-mother-heroine-1734361 “Under the decree issued on Monday, a one-off payment of one million rubles ($16,400) will be "awarded to a mother who is a citizen of the Russian Federation, who has given birth to and brought up ten or more children who are citizens of the Russian Federation."” I guess the handmaid/broodmare thing is universal among repressive regimes that need soldiers to replace those lost in stupid wars or who left a country due to stupid wars. Maybe we could just give them registered republicans?

You gut the laws that make espionage a crime, of course. Rand Paul thinks trump’s espionage is just ducky and thinks it shouldn’t be a crime. Rand Paul is fucking stupid. https://www.newsweek.com/rand-paul-calls-espionage-act-repeal-trump-fumes-over-fbi-search-1733488
