‘Trump Dance’ sweeps American sports
U.S. president-elect inspires copycats in the NFL and UFC.

Donald Trump’s signature dance is coming to a sporting event near you.

Several top sports stars over the weekend appear to have busted out The Trump (think: your awkward uncle dancing at a wedding after quaffing Aperol spritz from the free bar) to celebrate wins and big plays.

The U.S. president-elect, who romped to victory in the Nov. 5 election, has been dancing at rallies for years and his robotic jiving appears to have cut through to mainstream popular culture.

Cage fighter Jon Jones was first up, busting out the Trump moves seconds after his victory in the Ultimate Fighting Championship on Saturday night — in front of a live audience including Trump himself, billionaire Elon Musk, Speaker of the House Mike Johnson, incoming Health Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr., and several other MAGA heavyweights.

Trump shared a video of Jones’ homage on his Truth Social account Sunday.

In the National Football League — which irritated the president-elect repeatedly during his first term — awkward jigging practically went viral Sunday afternoon.

Multiple Detroit Lions defensemen, led by Za’Darius Smith, did the dance to celebrate a big play in the final moments of a huge win over the Jacksonville Jaguars. Smith even mimicked a little golf swing, a recent added flourish by Trump to his on-stage boogieing.

Las Vegas Raiders tight end Brock Bowers broke out the jig to celebrate a third quarter touchdown.

PlymouthLive readers have been discussing the news that in Plympton residents are claiming that a new bus shelter fails to shield them from the elements. The new shelter, located on Glen Road close to Edwards Drive and Bellingham Crescent, is said to provide inadequate cover from wind and rain.

Passengers complain that the brief canopy and minimal side panels offer very little protection, particularly when spray from passing lorries hits them. A regular at the Glen Road bus stops, Jillian Oxley expressed her dissatisfaction, stating: "Myself and others were happy with the previous shelters, and now the new shelters barely keep us dry."

In support of local concerns, Plympton Chaddlewood Councillor Ian Poyser of the Green Party declared: "Our community deserves functional and comfortable bus shelters, especially in high-traffic areas like Glen Road where we have high volumes of HGV traffic."

The Conspiracy Theory That Elon Musk Stole the Election Using Starlink Is Everywhere Now

On November 9, a TikTok user called Etheria77 posted a nine-minute long video in which she outlined a conspiracy theory suggesting that Elon Musk’s Starlink internet satellite system was used as part of a sophisticated effort to steal the election on behalf of president-elect Donald Trump.

“California and other swing states were able to use Starlink in order to tally up and to count voting ballots in their state,” said Etheria77. “The numbers don’t make sense, and the reason I’m going to tell you that is, you had guaranteed states that were going to turn blue and didn’t. Then you had millions of [votes] that are missing. This right here is bullshit.”

The account was not the first to suggest the conspiracy theory, but the video was one of the main reasons it has taken off in recent days. While TikTok has since removed the video, that has not stopped it from being shared on other social media platforms, including X, Reddit, Threads, Facebook, and Instagram, where it has racked up millions of views.

This was just one of dozens of TikTok videos, many of them with hundreds of thousands of views, that shared the conspiracy theory. On other platforms, accounts with large followings also boosted the Starlink conspiracy theory and an assortment of others about Trump’s win.

tl;dr
>whenever anyone in the US buys a gun from a dealer it goes through the FBI's NICS system
>Washington state created a " Secure Automated Firearms E-Check (SAFE) system" for state background checks for some fucking reason even though they had already banned private sales so all sales had to go through NICS no matter what
>the "SAFE" system went into affect Jan 1, 2024. they aren't the only state to do this, NJ is also a "point of contact" state. IDK if washington retains data, NJ's makes even less sense because its just old ladies typing the NICS data into NICS for the gun store instead of the gun store doing it and NJ doesn't retain any records so fucking why?
>Nov 1, 2024 Washington's courts get hacked
>courts operating as normal but hack means "SAFE" system is down
>no "SAFE" system no background checks
>all gun sales have been banned for the last 2 weeks
system is working as intended
we need to put this same system in place for abortions, buying weed, getting gay married, being a tranny and going to jewish church
oh apparently they have a 10 day waiting period too. how the fuck did Washington manage to have more retarded gun laws than NJ? NJ doesn't even have waiting periods. Its just normal NICS with the exception that federally if NICS doesn't give a decision in 3 days you get your gun, but in NJ you wait until NICS gives back results.

A strong indicator of what a second Trump presidency's approach to the Middle East will be has been seen in the appointment of Brian Hook, who was special envoy for Iran in the first Trump administration. Hook is expected to receive a high level national security post this time around, and he previously led the 'maximum pressure' campaign against the Islamic Republic.

It's being widely reported that 'maximum pressure' against Tehran is back on, for example in the Wall Street Journal on Friday: "President-elect Donald Trump plans to drastically increase sanctions on Iran and throttle its oil sales as part of an aggressive strategy to undercut Tehran’s support of violent Mideast proxies and its nuclear program, according to people briefed on his early plans."

"I think you are going to see the sanctions go back on, you are going to see much more, both diplomatically and financially, they are trying to isolate Iran," a former White House official was quoted in the report as saying. "I think the perception is that Iran is definitely in a position of weakness right now, and now is an opportunity to exploit that weakness."

Also likely to inform Trump's policy are the reports claiming that agents of Iran are trying to assassinate him. While there have been propaganda videos coming out of Tehran suggesting such, it remains that there's no publicly disclosed proof or smoking gun evidence of any active plotting in place. However, top officials of President Biden's intelligence community say that there is evidence, and earlier this fall briefed Trump and his team.

Mick Mulroy, a top defense official within the first Trump administration observed that "People tend to take that stuff personally." He added that "If he’s going to be hawkish on any particular country, designated major adversaries, it’s Iran."

Trump's New 'Border Czar' Issues Warning to Gangs: 'Going to Take You Out'

President-elect Donald Trump's incoming "border czar" issued a stark warning to criminal gangs on Friday.

"As far as Tren de Aragua and MS-13 ... my gang's bigger than your gang, and we're going to take you out, too," said Tom Homan, who led U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement during Trump's first term and will now serve as U.S. border enforcer.

Homan made the comments during an interview on Donald Trump Jr.'s Triggered podcast.

"I can't wait to get started," Homan added. "I am excited about coming back, serving this country again."

Earlier in the interview, Trump Jr. asked Homan what his "overarching message" is to Americans "who are eager for major border action on minute one. Like, Inauguration Day, one second in, how much will you be able to improve the life of everyday Americans?"

"I got three words for them: shock and awe," Homan responded. "Shock and awe. You're going to see us take this country back."

Trump and Homan share similar hard-line views on immigration and border security. Trump's decision to tap Homan as his "border czar" also renewed concerns of how heavily the president-elect plans to lean on Project 2025, given that Homan is a visiting fellow at The Heritage Foundation and helped contribute to the initiative.

San Francisco Chronicle reported that Project 2025 calls for creation of the type of sweeping immigration-focused role for which Trump selected Homan. The incoming "border czar" does not require Senate confirmation to serve under Trump, and CNBC reported that Homan could also be exempt from additional congressional scrutiny

Homan is not anti-immigrant, he's "anti-illegal immigration."
