The RICH people kissing up to other rich people. FUCK SNOOP He is now dead to me like all the other Nazis that hang with Trump.
@LaNaehForaday so sad about Snoop. I don’t despise him as much as the politicians because they are literally changing &/or breaking US laws to enrich themselves. Snoop is just an entertainer. Sure he’s in it for the money & taking it from dirty scumbag racists, but still, he’s not actively rigging the system, just lending whatever clout he may carry.
Snoop is metaphorically blowing Trump. Snoop is dead to me now. And so is every single other person that is MAGA. There is no turning back now. If you are a REPUBLICAN, in my mind YOU ARE A NAZI. If you didnt vote for the BLACK LADY for WHATEVER REASON--------YOU ARE DEAD TO ME.
Fuck this
Im not ever going to compromise my dignity by giving a pass to fucking NAZIS.
Tightly guarded by security, #DonaldTrumpJr donned custom #MAGA buttons on his shirt as he swiftly made his way into the innermost chamber of the VIP section, a room barricaded by a rotating bouncer and only allowing in certain guests. Along w/ #DavidSacks, & #House Speaker #MikeJohnson, he could be seen conversing w/ #FredThiel, CEO of mining company #MARAHoldings.

#FredThiel shared details of a #blockchain initiative his company had launched earlier that day w/ #MikeJohnson, an effort designed to symbolize the intersection of #crypto & #US #politics.
“We minted a block on the blockchain with a portrait of President Trump, created entirely from transactions,” Thiel said.
…#TracyHoyosLópez, a former California #prosecutor & one of the people credited w/ turning #Trump pro-#bitcoin, was also at the event.
