Are Americans just waking up to this fact?
Say the name “Yoshihiro Hattori” and maybe 90% of Japanese will know and maybe 0% of Americans won’t … This was the Japanese foreign exchange HS student 30 years ago who simply went to the wrong door in Baton Rouge on Halloween night

This may finally begin the initial phase of the tipping point for one Donald John Trump who has stubbornly and arrogantly managed to stay in the saddle somehow so far.

If that’s the case, then because of your big mouth and your insurrection I demand President Biden immediately arrest and JAIL you, throw away the key and then be granted total immunity from any prosecution in the future for duly denying you your constitutional rights.

George,
Harris needs to specifically ask this question of Trump in the debate,
#1
) state that it is now clear he stated he lost ‘by a whisker”
#2
) would he like to take the opportunity to now formally concede the election of 2020 once and for all on national TV?

I would like to add this is the second time something is fishy about his correspondence with Kim Jong Un. He bragged about these in the Oval and showed a journalist who quickly snapped a pic and then his aide and Trump threatened to throw him in jail if he didn’t delete the photo
@JoJoFromJerz
I feel so sad for you over there. I’m here in 🇯🇵Japan where I live and I can do ALL of these things and much much more… We had ZERO mass shootings over the last few years and we had TWO gun-related deaths in all of 2022,in a population of 130 million, in the third largest

Q: Have any of these mobile crematory’s been seized by the Ukrainians and if so could they be videoed and put on display for the United Nations or some other international body to ask what the hell these are used for by Russia? In an open forum?

“Ran away”? For crying out loud he came all the way to Capitol Hill and came right into the committee hearing room and into your faces and offered to testify and you guys disallowed it… You’re the ones that “ran away” rhetorically speaking
Someday the lid is going to be ripped off of the elite inner circle of Mar-a-Lago completely for the whole world to see: the copious amounts of adultery, prostitution, illicit drug use, alcoholism, gambling, swinging, espionage, sexual exploitation, idolatry of money and power,

We are being played for as fools and a not insignificant portion of this CONCERTED campaign is being orchestrated in the capitals of our adversaries.
Under the direction of foreign intelligence agencies who seek to split our Union into 1000 pieces.

Oh yeah but I bet you’ll be **silent** about this occurring in the halls of Congress and on the House floor a few years back, including a huge MAGA flag waved both on the floor of the Senate and House **

It may be middle of the night over there in the US but we here in Asia are glued to the Twitter as Steve’s stuff comes in one after the other… It’s riveting, it’s good, and every damn American should be reading it. That’s about all I have to say.🇺🇸😳

@IndepenentMr
I predicted in an X post here two weeks ago that DJT would somehow, once an office, state that he was cheated out of 4 years and in addition to his new term he would insist as “damages” to serve the other four years he was denied.
And sure enough now he’s talking that crap.

пане президенте,
Ми, американці, глибоко вибачимося за образу на вас кілька років тому з боку попереднього президента… І ми підтримуємо і будемо підтримувати вас кожну годину та день відтепер. Ми будемо з Україною, коли український народ також зможе розпочати відбудову країни🇺🇸

The all-consuming mindset of this individual is to monetize ***everything***… So 1) if he has something of value, the most sensitive national security documents possible, and 2) he has international contacts worldwide, and 3) he is an exploitable individual, you do the math.

We are in as much of the pandemic still here in Japan as any other country including the USA… And masks are not coming off any time too soon on public transportation because Japanese are deathly afraid of transmitting Covid… A healthy fear… We’ve kept Covid so low here anyways
The former president is still in a de facto mode of insurrection for he has not accepted the results of the 2020 elections, he’s not conceded the election, he claims he’s the rightful, legitimate president, and now he’s hosting sitting world leaders at his residence in Florida

Ignorance—rather than malice or mal-intent—is apparently the seed at work here here. In that sense, these particular young people must be:
👉Forgiven
👉Warned
👉Educated
In that order.
S. Korean daily "Chosun Ilbo" picks up the story from local Korean press who accessed eyewitness to mass shooting today, and claims suspect shouted "I am going to kill all Asians" as he shot victims. The eyewitness escaped and was interviewed locally:

@Liz_Cheney
1st thing I’d order is DHS to go on alert, begin to redteam/war game simulate this thing. I have seriously thought they’re going to try to hit state capitols, Democrat lawmakers offices in the districts, news media outlets, judges and prosecutor. (They won’t be able to touch DC)
@cwebbonline
Riddle me this.
They’re going there to support a state over the rights and authority of the central government i.e. the federal government i.e., the United States of America… So why are they displaying American flags when that’s the entity that they were opposing in this case?
@mccaffreyr3
🇺🇸🇺🇸”There is only one American President right now and he ain’t Donald John Trump”… As we fasten seatbelts and enter a tough period for the Republic and the world I want every American to repeat that basic patriotic fact and particularly every Republican to do so. 🇺🇸🇺🇸

Bolton: “I think Kim gets a huge laugh out of this. I mean, these letters that the president has shown to the press — off the record and whatnot, but I’ve been in the room when he’s done it — are written by some functionary in the N Korean Workers Party Agitprop Office,” he said”

I (lightly) knew Schmitz’ father. He was actually a R/W minor third party candidate for Pres in 1972, then GOP, and huge in the John Birch Society in So Cal, his sister was Mary Kay Letorneau R.I.P. of famous sex scandal with her underaged student. Total dysfunctional family.

You don’t get wowed by Goldwater as a kid, walk precincts for Nixon, serve Reagan in two capacities, work for Rep. Bob Dornan and be Treasurer of Republicans Abroad Japan. Then called a “Dem all along”. PROUD TO BE PART OF THIS EFFORT IN 2024!

The only one thing noteworthy was that Melania was not with him… As was expected… Only if the plane breaks off of its intended route and deadheads for Minsk should they break in to give us any reports

Certainly Madam Secretary,
If I, GOP for 48 years and also having worked for Pres. Reagan (albeit in a very lower junior capacity), can do it and jeopardized friends/standing, surely you can do it as well and have a much greater impact in this critical election (Video)👇🏼

@TruthJustis4USA
@RepsForBiden
He was furious over Kim Jong Un unveiling new ICBMs and SLBMs recently with a vitriolic speech. Not because it threatens our Allies and US troops in Japan and Korea, but because IT SCREWED WITH THE OPTICS of his Kim friendship, so close to an election.
Think about THAT!
@davidmweissman
If he openly declared himself as President of United States it is… And in his court filing for a special master, his attorneys referred to him as “President Donald J Trump”… We **can’t** allow this to go on much longer for a country this is incredibly internationally damaging
@gtconway3d
They applauded sexual assault… And they’re just warming up… Wait till they applaud outright MAGA members’ murders of his political opponents, as everything about creeping fascism tells us that’s in the next steps.
@kylegriffin1
Somethings stinks… This could be a controlled leak and then try to push it on a “foreign power” power as some form of a false flag or a way to change the news cycle away from Harris… I wouldn’t put anything past these people
@LanceUSA70
This is more mental than political… Everything these people do is a reflection of hatred towards activity that they themselves are involved in… Whatever they are criticizing in their speeches you can be almost certain they’re doing this same thing behind the scenes themselves.

Historically correct but your history lesson stops in the early 1800s and you missed the 2000s where it has been fully adopted and hijacked by anti government white nationalists on the extreme right involved an insurrection and it has essentially become their battle flag so

Q: Can we get a clear statement out of the Biden administration that if DJT is the GOP nominee, on security advisement they will ••not•• be providing him the DNI- prepared security briefings because of his criminal suspect status and overall untrustworthiness?

Large large crowds of people stand there and open their mouths for vast amounts of diarrhea he spews… They spread it around and wallow in it and dance in it in joy… Like I keep saying our problem is not Trump but the other people in that picture, as he can be easily replaced.

It is in their interest to not only normalize the crimes of a man who should never be normalized and wouldn’t be under a better system, they also must keep him in the race and news to sell to their readership and viewership… It’s simply a cash flow proposition, I’m convinced
@mmpadellan
@ReallyAmerican1
I keep saying it but I’m telling you if and when Trump is indicted/arrested you’re going to see considerable lone wolf or small group MAGA violence all across the land and I would hearts hardening facilities right now. Particularly govt., media, political offices.

Just now I visited a major MAGA republican chat site and some posters are trying to doxx the three Appellate Court Justices and intimating in vague terms ‘justice needs to be done’…I’m telling you these anti-American people are way over the line: have not been fully defeated yet

The Soviet Red Army for years had a policy of rampant sexual violence to captive women and the surrendered Germans would hide their daughters, shave their heads, or smear ‘stuff’ on them to make them offensive to keep the Russian soldiers away… They have not changed in 80 years

Why do you talk down the United States of America? Why do you talk down our US troops? Why do you talk down the commander-in-chief while we have troops hot in the field? Why do you not take to Twitter to excoriate the government in Tehran?

@RpsAgainstTrump
Can you believe after 2 1/2 years of removing this garbage from the White House? It’s backed up into the sink again and we have to endure the distrusting smell permeating the whole kitchen, and sludge, and work to remove it again?
@RpsAgainstTrump
That brings us to a larger question or should I say proposition… The fact of the matter is if you go online and see their MAGA forums there’s so little that they love about America anymore… You can go through list of actors, actresses, musicians amusement parks, TV shows,

This is a common tactic in many corrupt nations, when politicians are caught, or scandal is developing, they’ll go in the hospital where they think they are off-limits, and they usually are due to various laws… US probably differs in that regard, so good to go
@SpanbergerVA07
It’s already quite open source here in all the Japanese dailies and on talk shows here in Tokyo blaring the news of this unprecedented nonsense. The verb commonly used tonight about this Georgia call is 圧力で選挙結果改ざん (“rigging the election results based on pressure”)😡🇯🇵⛩

What, nothing about praising Kim Jong-un, the documented worst persecutor of Christians on the planet, and then being applauded raucously by the “Christian” nationalists teaming his in the audience like clapping harp seals?

1) Burner phones.
2) Detailed knowledge of passageways, secret offices and other ingress/egress points of the US Capitol that only a skilled Congressperson or her staff could plot out and educate others.
3) Intent to plead the 5th when cornered.
What else do you need to know?

Let me tack onto that but I think if the US Government has completed the “damage assessment report (DAR)” and has provided such a report to foreign allies indicating they also may have had intelligence vulnerabilities exposed due to Trump, the American people should get some kind
