Boyfriends kept telling me to stop talking. So now I run a news commentary. ▪️Breaking News, Global News, Investigations ▪️No Corporate or Political Affiliation ▪️PRESS FREEDOM

I did try that, yes. All great apps but I had problems posting videos. I may try again later. I don't want to jinx anything yet, but will start exploring and testing when I have a chance.

What about desktop? I've had both embarrassing self-inflicting and tech issues with every other app except Ditto. After I figure out which app to use, I'll work on my Lightning address.

Even my close family member who's the CTO of a thriving crypto company hasn't been able to help me. 😹 I might be a lost cause.

Both but mostly Android and I primarily use a desktop.

TRUMP BANS ASSOCIATED PRESS

"Today we were informed by the White House that if AP did not align its editorial standards with President Donald Trump’s executive order

renaming the Gulf of Mexico as the Gulf of America, AP would be barred from accessing an event in the Oval Office. This afternoon AP’s reporter was blocked from attending an executive order signing."

If there are no trolls at poster.place, there will be after I show up with my Trump and Musk news reports. 😭

Yes, I'm working on it! I need a slow news day. 😫

Yea, Ditto is working the best for me so far (thank you, nostr:nprofile1qy2hwumn8ghj7erfw36x7tnsw43z7un9d3shjqpq0qdp2fc9ta6vraczxrcs8prqnv69fru2k6s2dj48gqjcylulmtjsu4qu0f!) but I still need to get my Lightning address working, Ditto still hasn't approved my username request, and I would prefer an app that provides post previews... Which app/s are you using?

MUSK SAYS ELECTED REPRESENTATIVES SHOULD DECIDE, NOT UNELECTED BUREAUCRACY

Speaking in the Oval Office as Trump signs a DOGE executive order, Elon Musk says it’s important that the public’s elected representatives decide what happens rather than unelected bureaucracy...

Analysts note that DOGE and Musk are unelected bureaucracy with a massive conflict of interest. Tesla and SpaceX have received $15.4B so far from the US government...

WHITE HOUSE WILL NOT RELEASE VISITOR LOGS DURING TRUMP'S SECOND TERM

Trump also kept White House visitor logs secret during his first term.

Former President Biden consistently released White House visitor records, with some suspicious gaps.

"WE WILL SWAP ONE TERRITORY FOR ANOTHER"

Zelensky says he plans to offer Kursk to Russia in exchange for Ukraine territory under Russian control.

Zelensky did not say which territory he would request be returned to Ukraine: “I don’t know, we will see..."

Russia currently controls nearly 20% of Ukraine territory as Ukraine loses its small amount of Kursk on the battlefield.

Trump says he will take Gaza and turn it into a diamond.

"Diamond" is an interesting term, given that Israel is well known for its lucrative blood diamond industry in Africa. Palestine also sits on a wealth of oil and gas reserves.

Only Palestinians have rights to Gaza Marine field:

80% of Meged oil field is on land owned by Palestinians in the occupied West Bank:

Israel awards gas exploration licenses to BP, Western companies:

Through a web of corruption and deceit, Israel is deeply entangled in the blood diamond trade, reaping windfall profits:

TRUMP SAYS AGAIN HE WILL TAKE GAZA (NOT BUY IT)

In a brazen violation of international law and national sovereignty, Trump says in front of Jordan King Abdullah II:

“There’s nothing to buy, we will have Gaza.”

Trump says the United States "will take" Gaza and turn it into a diamond: "It's fronting on the sea"

Interesting. Some analysts say US infrastructure is in decline... 🤔

US JUSTICE DEPT ORDERS DISMISSAL OF CORRUPTION CHARGES AGAINST NYC MAYOR ADAMS

Adams was charged with bribery, fraud and other counts in his indictment, accusing Adams of taking $100,000 in free plane tickets and luxury hotels from wealthy Turkish nationals as well as from Israel, and at least one government official... in a decade-long corruption scheme.

Trump sympathized Mayor Adams over "persecution" amid indictment.
