There is a lot of shadiness here. But the fact that Bessent referred to an account that is managing sovereign assets of a foreign nation as a large asset on the US balance sheet is a BFD. It's either theft or he doesn't understand basic accounting.
CASTEN: Trump said 'we're taking in billions and billions from Venezuela.' Who is the 'we'? That suggests flows to US persons
BESSENT: Again, this is one of the largest assets ever to go on the US balance sheets
CASTEN: You can't testify whether or not they're flowing to US persons?
BESSENT: No

Scenes such as this where the light is reflecting on the water are accomplished through a process called "backlighting", "underlighting" or "bipack glow". To create the effect a matte is cut and light is shone through the holes.

So there's 100% going to be some kind of messianic religion that sprouts up around Trump after it happens, and the only question is whether they claim to be Christian by pronouncing Trump the second coming of Christ, or if they slough Christianity off entirely to await a second coming of Trump.
Wow -- RNC video: "On June 14th, 1946, God looked down on his planned paradise and said, 'I need a caretaker,' so God gave us Trump."
It only gets more unhinged and culty from there.

I mean, it only "works" because the press is in on the con.
It's so weird how "As Speaker of the House, I have no idea what's going on... Like, in general," is an effective way to deflect scandal rather than being a massive scandal in itself.

If Wisconsin had a slightly more sane DSA-type candidate running, they very may well have won last night...
Just remembered to check in on the Wisconsin governors primary and with a little over 100,000 estimated votes left to be counted, progressive Francesca Hong trails by 3,223 votes—a razor thin difference of half of 1% against David Crowley.

Don't get me wrong, I lift every morning. But being a man is not really about how you show up in the gym.
It's how you show up for your family. It's about how you show up for your community.
