He bought $2,200 worth of Trump Bucks and other items over the past year only to discover they were worthless when he tried to cash them in at his local bank

“Now I’m questioning whether he is aware of this,” Amann said of Trump.

"Antifa sold me fake Trump bucks!!!"

floofloof,

Trump is famous for defending ordinary people against scams. Oh no, wait, it’s the other way round.

floofloof, in Ex-Chief of Staff Mark Meadows granted immunity, tells special counsel he warned Trump about 2020 claims: Sources

According to Meadows’ book, the election was “stolen” and “rigged” with help from “allies in the liberal media,” who ignored “actual evidence of fraud, right there in plain sight for anyone to access and analyze.”

But, as described to ABC News, Meadows privately told Smith’s investigators that – to this day – he has yet to see any evidence of fraud that would have kept now-president Joe Biden from the White House, and he told them he agrees with a government assessment at the time that the 2020 presidential election was the most secure election in U.S. history.

Just another shameless Republican liar and hypocrite.

Lost_Wanderer, in Armenia joins Russia's list of 25 countries where foreigners will be able to open accounts in Russian banks

Yeh… Who would want to open an account that could easily be seized for their warmongering?

cuenca, (edited )

Why? There’s no need for the citizens of the 25 countries to pay for it.

The idiots who pay for the warmongering are US and Europe themselves, thanks to the sactions, the high prices of the oil and gas, aids to UA and their stupid way of conducting the foreign policy with the rest of the world.

Putin smiles like never before.

And now the citizens of 25 countries will be able to send and receive payment to/from Russia freely, without a need to use shitty american SWIFT.

apis,

Probably just people who can’t get less risky accounts, or who are hoping to get money out of Russia.

Unaware7013,

Isn't this more bringing money into Russia? I wouldn't think putting money into a Russian bank would be an effective way to get money out of Russia...

apis,

Arrange a transfer from Russian branch to Armenian branch, withdraw money, close account.

Or just a plain withdrawal if you already have an account with them in Russia, and other banks are refusing your business.

MAGA- or better yet, MAGGOT loyalty requires you to have no sense of morals or ethics and absolutely no education or ability to comprehend reality. Go out there and give it all you got, maggots of the world!

I have zero sympathy. In fact, I hope it gets even worse.

FoundTheVegan, (edited ) in Pilot Who Tried to Kill Flight’s Engines Told Cops He’d Taken Shrooms, Feds Say
@FoundTheVegan@kbin.social avatar

Well, that explains a lot. Shrooms are great, everyone should do it once in their life. But they should only do it somewhere safe, calm and ideally with a sober "trip sitter".

Part of me wants to feel sorry for the guy, but it was beyond reckless and stupid for him to be tripping in a cockpit, let alone on a plane at all. Especially for his first time! His dealer isn't culpable for the pilots actions, but obviously didn't prepare him on what to expect. Everything would've been fine if he had just gone to his basement with a bunch of stuffed animals and some chill music.

Edit: After reading some comments, if he took shrooms two days earlier than it's not the cause. Maximum your trip lasts like 12 hours. Sleep deprivation seems more likely to me

alyaza, in Category 5 Hurricane Otis makes landfall near Acapulco, Mexico
@alyaza@beehaw.org avatar

Apparently it built from a tropical storm to a Cat 5 in about 24 hours.

correct, and it did so with very little prior warning. already footage from the area is catastrophic–in the history of Mexico, there’s never been a hurricane this powerful making landfall from the Pacific.

anachronist, in Pilot Who Tried to Kill Flight’s Engines Told Cops He’d Taken Shrooms, Feds Say

“Your honor, in my defense, I was on shrooms.”

Oh geez that’s some trip

“Near”… If that is near I’d start running when they say “In the vicinity of”

MagicShel, in Former NSA employee pleads guilty to attempted selling classified documents to Russia

Bad timing. Yo can’t sell the piddly little shit when Russia already bought the Maralago motherhood.

LoamImprovement, in Alaska Airlines flight diverted, off-duty pilot Joseph Emerson arrested for trying to cut engines midflight, officials say

This is a good reminder of both why they take you out of the cockpit forever if you so much as hint that you may have any sort of mental/emotional issue, and why we need better processes in place to solve the problems that lead pilots to that breaking point.

It shouldn’t have gotten to the point where one wobbly Jenga brick in the stack kept 83+ people from dying that day.
