    Well there's a surprise. Didn't want to upset all the trumpanzees that make inane videos sucking up to him no doubt.

    TikTok flickered back to life in the United States on Sunday after President-elect Donald J. Trump said that he would issue an executive order to stall a federal ban of the app.
    The abrupt shift came just hours after major app stores removed the popular social media site and it stopped operating for U.S. users as a federal law took effect on Sunday. The company said in a post on X that in “agreement with our service providers, TikTok is in the process of restoring service.”
    Mr. Trump said in a Sunday morning post on Truth Social that he would “issue an executive order on Monday to extend the period of time before the law’s prohibitions take effect, so that we can make a deal to protect our national security.”
    The ban stems from a 2024 law that requires app stores and cloud computing providers to stop distributing or hosting TikTok unless it is sold by its Chinese parent company, ByteDance. Lawmakers passed the law over concerns that the Chinese government could use the app, which claims roughly 170 million United States users, to gather information about Americans or spread propaganda.

    Good luck to President Trump, Americans and the rest of us. Were going to need it. We're in for a wild ride.

    I actually hope he stays alive until 2028.

    The thought of Peter Thiel owning the White House is frightening.

    Biden gets one last F-U on his way out the door, issuing preemptive pardons for General Milley, Dr. Fauci, and members of the January 6 committee.

    Post # 2 in this thread.....I've lost confidence in my fellow Americans that we ended up with the orange turd. He certainly did a good job of marketing himself in some way.

    To quote the visionary that was the Baltimore Sun's H.L. Mencken in 1920:

    “When a candidate for public office faces the voters he does not face men of sense; he faces a mob of men whose chief distinguishing mark is the fact that they are quite incapable of weighing ideas, or even of comprehending any save the most elemental — men whose whole thinking is done in terms of emotion, and whose dominant emotion is dread of what they cannot understand. So confronted, the candidate must either bark with the pack or be lost... All the odds are on the man who is, intrinsically, the most devious and mediocre — the man who can most adeptly disperse the notion that his mind is a virtual vacuum. The Presidency tends, year by year, to go to such men. As democracy is perfected, the office represents, more and more closely, the inner soul of the people. We move toward a lofty ideal. On some great and glorious day the plain folks of the land will reach their heart's desire at last, and the White House will be adorned by a downright moron.”

    Watching the inauguration, even George Bush walked in with a look on his face like "Is this fu...'d up or what?"

    Yes, I thought his speech was child-like in many ways. He even managed to come across as another senile POTUS at the same time too.

    Well, let's hope he's already got rid of all the DEI hires out of the Secret Service. And he starts eating some vegetables.

    If I was Putin, I'd welcome the Trumps to the White House by publishing some more nude photos of Melania today.

    Trump said, “hold my beer.”

    Pardons for January 6 rioters: Trump on Monday pardoned US Capitol rioters, saying the pardon would cover more than 1,500 people, which would appear to cover nearly everyone charged since the attack on January 6, 2021. He also commuted the sentences of Oath Keepers and Proud Boys who were convicted of seditious conspiracy.

    Just one day of King Trump and I need a lie down. Did he threaten to invade Thailand today? Perhaps I missed it.

    and the richest.. Elon Musk, Jeff Bezoz, and Mark Zuckerberg with their tongues deep into Trumps ass.
    The super-rich are no longer content with just making money and having the economical power, now they want the political power as well.
    Welcome to the time of the oligarchs... Welcome US to the kind of world that Putin loves to see you transform into.

    Nice touch my Musk with the NAzi salute at the inauguration, perhaps involuntary a la Dr Strangelove
