Trump 47


Not sure if this is 100% legit or not as I dont know the site. I'll give it a day or so and see if other reports confirm.

Someone hacked the message archive tool that is being used for Signal and got access to chats by the NSC with 10-15 minutes.
 
I wonder if it's intended to terrify. You know, because federal maximum security prisons are known as little more than vacations for inmates.
I’m sure there’s money to be made for one of his oligarch buddies. I would imagine that is the primary motivation. That or he saw “The Rock” and thought it be cool.

Btw, “The Alcatraz of the Rockies” has plenty of space and has even been shutting down wings for lack of inmates.

 
The Movie Industry in America is DYING a very fast death. Other Countries are offering all sorts of incentives to draw our filmmakers and studios away from the United States. Hollywood, and many other areas within the U.S.A., are being devastated. This is a concerted effort by other Nations and, therefore, a National Security threat. It is, in addition to everything else, messaging and propaganda! Therefore, I am authorizing the Department of Commerce, and the United States Trade Representative, to immediately begin the process of instituting a 100% Tariff on any and all Movies coming into our Country that are produced in Foreign Lands. WE WANT MOVIES MADE IN AMERICA, AGAIN!

He's not wrong but it seems like all this will do is penalize foreign films. Maybe that's the point-make it so the artsy French stuff is less likely to be watched just to own the libs again. Who knows what goes through his mind most of the time.

Unless he wants to ban streaming services and mandate Hollywood make movies everyone wants to watch it's not going to change the industries death spiral.

My kids are 12 and almost 9. We went and watched Minecraft and half the fun for them was yelling Chicken Jockey and stuff like that. For that target audience the internet somehow made it an experience like what you had with Marvel movies a decade ago.

Speaking of Marvel, I asked if they wanted to watch Thunderbolts this weekend and they didn't so I went today when they were at their mom's. Little over $20 for me for a matinee, popcorn, and pop (and most of yall will probably say that'scheap for a movie). I could have spent $60 for something they really didn't care about but instead we played a little game called don't tell mom and watched Invincible on Prime. So $60 for 2 hrs of entertainment or essentially free for a whole evening.

So yeah, studios are going the way of the horse drawn cart. I don't see how penalizing companies for shooting films on location will change that.



Oh by the way, go look up the highest grossing movie of 2025 so far. You think those producers give a flying fart about American audiences right now?
 
Everyone is bad except him


"Boy, you people treat us so badly. The Wall Street Journal has truly gone to hell. You're a rotten newspaper. You hear me? What I said? It's a rotten newspaper. I wouldn't tell The Wall Street Journal because it'd be wasting my time. There are talks, but I don't want to talk to The Wall Street Journal. But look, The Wall Street Journal is China-oriented and they're really bad for this country."

 
Trump announces plans to build a "world-class" ballroom at the White House, claiming it’s something they’ve wanted for "probably a hundred years."

Because the White House definitely needed a ballroom more than, you know, healthcare or infrastructure.

NEW: Trump’s DOJ just removed the ATF’s “Faces of Gun Violence” memorial, which was created to honor police officers killed by gunfire and children murdered in school shootings.
