Twitter (X) was fined in relation to Trump's account

Twitter was fined $350,000 for failing to timely provide the government with information related to Donald Trump's account. The company did comply with the order, but it was three days late.

What is striking about this news is not the fine itself, but the fact that the government demanded access to Trump's account. What did they hope to find there? And how scared were they, if they also served a nondisclosure order?

🏳️‍🌈❌ World Bank suspends funding for Uganda over anti-gay law

Every country should have the right to decide how it wants to live, right?

No, apparently you are wrong, because the World Bank disagrees with you. Either you agree with what they think is right or you die in poverty.

▪️The World Bank has recently announced it would stop providing new loans to Uganda, after its government banned same-sex relationships.

“Uganda’s Anti-Homosexuality Act fundamentally contradicts the World Bank Group’s values,” the organization said in a statement.

“We believe our vision to eradicate poverty on a livable planet can only succeed if it includes everyone irrespective of race, gender, or sexuality. This law undermines those efforts.”

So far, about $1.7 billion of the more than $4 billion allocated to Uganda by the World Bank has been disbursed. It is now unclear whether the country will see the remainder of the sum. The money was supposed to go towards health, agriculture, roads, energy infrastructure and education.

❗️This is another example of how globalist countries and organizations can impose their "values" on others under the guise of "social and green initiatives."

I want to believe that Uganda's president is as based as he sounds.

“Uganda will develop with or without loans,” he said. “It is, therefore, unfortunate that the World Bank and other actors dare to want to coerce us into abandoning our faith, culture, principles and sovereignty, using money.”

But the truth is that he will probably have to make some concessions and meet the World Bank somewhere in the middle. Or even give in to this (kind of) blackmail.

That's actually pretty cool. But think about all this fuel burned for fun.

🇺🇸 US suicides hit an all-time high last year

About 49,500 people took their own lives last year in the U.S., the highest number ever, according to new government data posted Thursday.

The CDC has not yet calculated a suicide rate for the year, but available data suggests suicides are more common in the U.S. than at any time since the dawn of World War II.

This is alarming.

Apparently, there's going to be a fight (wtf?) between Elon Musk and Mark Zuckerberg soon

Musk had challenged Zuckerberg to a cage fight in June. Zukerberg replied: “Send me location.”

Musk says the fight will be streamed both on X and Meta. He claims he spoke to the PM of Italy and Minister of Culture to arrange an epic location for the fight.

"Everything in camera frame will be ancient Rome, so nothing modern at all," Musk wrote on X.

However, Musk says he may need surgery before he can fight. In the meantime, Zuckerberg continues to train with MMA professionals.

🇬🇧🇬🇲 Gambia has become a sex paradise for British grannies

Europeans love traveling to Africa. Among other African countries, The Gambia stands out as a magnet for retired British women seeking sex services.

Gambian "bumsters"/ Gambian "bums" is a term used to describe unemployed Gambian men who provide a range of services for ageing European women. Women are willing to spend thousands of pounds on Gambian "bumsters." Some return to The Gambia time after time.

Sometimes romance isn't limited to vacations only. One of many interesting cases: Great-grandmother Margaret Sarr, 71, spent £200k life-savings on her Gambian toyboy husband who cheated on her when she moved him to the UK.

Grooming older European tourists becomes a matter of survival for many young Gambians. The average monthly salary here is £200, while hotel staff earn as little as £50. Providing sex services can increase their income to £500 or more per week.

"Age is just a number for us. If you go with a rich white lady, you feel proud and people treat you with respect. If a white woman likes me, I only ask for a little money to help us to eat and I will love her for as long as she loves me," says one of the Gambian bumsters.

This is quite a new take on colonialism.

Biden was asked about the deadly fires in Hawaii where nearly 100 are dead and over 1,000 still missing

His response: “No comment.”

With Biden, it's simple. In any confusing situation, just send more money to Ukraine.

🇺🇸🇺🇦💰American aid to Ukraine costs $900 per household

The Heritage Foundation found that the United States’ current provision of $113 billion in aid to Ukraine costs $900 per American household.

Taking into account that this sum increased the national debt, American households will be burdened with another $300 in interest costs over a decade.

These numbers will continue to grow as long as the government continues to provide financial aid to Ukraine (or rather, to Zelenskyy, since no one knows where the money ends up going).

Earlier this year, trans Anne Andres posted a video, openly mocking women for being weak and being "bad at bench" in powerlifting.

Andres totaled 597.5 kg (1,317 pounds) at the recent competition. The current world record in men's powerlifting is 1152.5 kg (2,540 pounds).

Hey, Andres, why so bad at lifting?

When you think of the natural disaster currently unfolding in Hawaii, the amount of taxpayer dollars that American households are sending to Ukraine becomes even more staggering.

Biden announced those who survived the fires in Hawaii will get "a one-time $700 payment per household offering relief during an unimaginably difficult time."

So, basically, Hawaiian families will get less financial support from the government than it has been sending to another country on behalf of those families.

Priorities.

San Francisco federal workers advised to work remotely because of safety concerns

The U.S. Department of Health and Human Services has told its hundreds of employees in San Francisco that it’s too dangerous to come in to the office.

HHS issued the stay-home recommendation in an Aug. 4 memo to regional leaders.

“In light of the conditions at the (Federal Building) we recommend employees … maximize the use of telework for the foreseeable future,” the memo says.

The area is reportedly home to one of the city’s most brazen open-air drug markets on a daily basis.
