Re: Trump
No surprise - his government now admits the pool wasn’t vandalised, and was just shitty workmanship all along.

Unbelievable. As someone posted elsewhere, you have to double check this isn't being posted on The Onion:

this week, he said that "any country with windmills is a loser"

Re: Trump
Every news story about the latest thing he’s said or done, in my head the words “…because he’s a fcuking moron” get added and it’s never wrong.
Re: Trump
Also apparently Capital One closed his bank accounts in 2021, which Trump is suing them for, claiming it was politically motivated, as per.
But as part of the ongoing back and forth between lawyers...

Whoopsadoodle!

...which wasn't publicly known before.Capital One has never accused the Trump Organization of money laundering. But Friday’s filing argues that “documents and Plaintiffs’ own allegations make clear that Capital One closed Plaintiffs’ accounts for anti-money laundering (‘AML’) reasons.
“The closures were the result of months of analysis and a careful review by Capital One’s AML team in accordance with bank policies and regulatory guidance.”
Capital One gave notice of its plans to close more than 300 Trump-affiliated bank accounts in March 2021.
Whoopsadoodle!

Re: Trump
And he's just done a soft TACO on his attack on the BBC. Having claimed $10bn for financial & reputational harm (LOL), the BBC said "OK, prove the financial harm, show us your accounts" and the judge sided with the BBC, and ordered him to produce the records.
It's TACO time !
He's now backpedalling and asking permission to revise the claim to just the reputational harm bit. But still for $10bn. LOL.
But I still don't think I've seen any explanation why a Florida court has any jurisdiction over the BBC in the first place ? So fair play to the BBC for staring him down on this.
It also led to various wonderful “BBC” headlines like: "TRUMP CAN'T HANDLE BBC", "TRUMP IN PAIN OVER BBC INTRUSION", etc.

Re: Trump
And there’s the new wig of course.
Re: Trump
I hadn't realised he'd flown out on the new Air Force 1. I do believe he's going to try to keep it when his presidency ends. So it makes sense that he would protect it and would consider the old Air Force 1 expendable. Trump gives absolutely no shit about anyone but him; we knew that. But his disdain for human life is disgusting - the ICE victims, the staff and press on this plane, so many other examples.
Re: Trump
It's more likely that the old plane has an enormous amount of security and counter-measure features whereas the new one has nice cup holders...Jobbo wrote: Thu Aug 13, 2026 9:22 am I hadn't realised he'd flown out on the new Air Force 1.

Funnily enough, this whole thing reminded me of how the Cullinan diamond was transported to England from South AfricaJobbo wrote: Thu Aug 13, 2026 9:58 amWhy wasn't he on it then?dinny_g wrote: Thu Aug 13, 2026 9:36 amIt's more likely that the old plane has an enormous amount of security and counter-measure features whereas the new one has nice cup holders...Jobbo wrote: Thu Aug 13, 2026 9:22 am I hadn't realised he'd flown out on the new Air Force 1.

In 1905, the 3,106-carat Cullinan Diamond was sent from South Africa to England in a plain, unmarked box via ordinary registered parcel post. Authorities used a heavily guarded steamship carrying a fake decoy stone as a decoy to trick potential thieves, allowing the real gem to arrive safely and quietly in London.

Re: Trump
Heard the other military plane go over closely tailing af1, maybe they were further apart when it left, but you’d thing anyone targeting af1 would also go after the support plane too anyway? 
I did click on it at the time to see what it was but couldn’t have screen grabbed it.
