Couldn’t make this up… Please Trump fans, tell us which 5D chess move is involved here.

My guess: Trump will gift the golden statue of himself to Bibi when he visits next week, in order to persuade him to allow the renaming of the United States of Israel as “Trumpland”.

Trump announces new perfume range
The US president has unveiled a new line of fragrances featuring a golden statue of himself

US President Donald Trump has unveiled a new line of perfumes and colognes, marketed as “Trump Fragrances,” featuring limited-edition bottles shaped like golden statues of himself.

The products went on sale this week and are promoted as commemorating “Victory 45-47,” a reference to Trump’s presidencies as the 45th and 47th US leader.

“Trump Fragrances are here,” he wrote on his Truth Social platform on Monday. “They’re called ‘Victory 45-47’ because they’re all about Winning, Strength, and Success — For men and women. Get yourself a bottle, and don’t forget to get one for your loved ones too.”

The New “Victory 47” line is being sold for $249 per 100ml bottle, with an option to save $100 when purchasing two. Trump’s perfume lineup also currently features the “Fight, Fight, Fight” fragrance for men and women, sold for $199 and featuring a golden image of Trump after he survived an assassination attempt last year.

While the launch has generated enthusiasm among Trump supporters and collectors, it has also drawn criticism from political opponents and ethics advocates, who denounced the release as inappropriate for a sitting president.

“From crypto scams to shady real estate deals, Trump phones, and cologne. He’s never stopped using the presidency to enrich himself and his family,” the campaign group Republicans Against Trump wrote on X.

Online reviews have been mixed. On Fragrantica, users have described the men’s cologne as woody and spicy, with notes of cardamom, geranium, and fougère accord. Some reviews praised the scent as competent but overpriced, while others appeared to post critical commentary without having tested the product.

“This honestly isn’t bad. But it’s nothing impressive,” one reviewer wrote. “I will however say that this is way, way, WAY overpriced. This legit smells like something you could get at Ross for $26,” they added, suggesting that “there really isn’t any reason to own this unless Trump is your god.”

The launch adds to a growing roster of branded Trump merchandise that includes watches, sneakers, books, NFTs, and cryptocurrency. According to Forbes and Trump’s most recent financial disclosure, the ventures have generated tens of millions of dollars in revenue since the beginning of his second term.

So what? It's a very American thing to do actually, and a quintessentially Trump thing to do..and the man is entitled to make some money just like everyone else. He does not take a salary as president. He's refused to take it both times he became president, choosing to donate the salary instead. Can your WEF globalist stooge Mark Carney say the same thing?

More victories for Trump recently btw...

- CBS/Paramount forced to settle with Trump (for a cool 16 million bucks which will go to his library I believe) over the whole Kamala Harris edited interview debacle.

- His big beautiful bill recently passed.

- Supreme Court ruled that parents can opt out of LGBTQ related classes on behalf of their kids

- In what will likely be a trend, Penn State caved to Trump's pressure (withholding federal funds for violating title 9) and they've agreed to ban all transgender athletes and revoke all Lia Thomas' records and wins, and will be offering apologies to all the women forced to endure the indignity and injustice of the whole dreadful affair.

Useful detail but misses crucial fact I’ve reported in three books: Obama ordered ICA and knew by August 2016 only intel tying Trump to Russia was dossier. That’s the scandal, not bad tradecraft or stovepiping intel, etc: Obama framed Trump.

Lee is absolutely right. He wrote the first and definitive account of the true story of Russiagate. I wrote a similarly comprehensive book. And we’re both clear about who was behind it all, i.e. the one person not even mentioned in this latest release: Obama.

•Concludes that in 2016 then CIA Director Brennan and others rushed the Russia election interference intelligence assessment
•Brennan dismissed high level warnings that the Clinton campaign opposition research the “Steele dossier” did not meet intel collection standards + risked “credibility”
•Handling of dossier was highly irregular + limited analytic rigor
•Media leaks reinforced narrative "with high confidence" that Russia intervened to help candidate Trump

Pg. 4

"...two senior leaders of the CIA mission center responsible for Russia—strongly opposed including the Dossier, asserting that it did not meet even the most basic tradecraft standards."

NOTE: Basic Tradecraft Standards means established collection methods, techniques and operations.

Pg. 5

"Brennan showed a preference for narrative consistency over analytical soundness....Brennan ultimately formalized his position in writing, stating that “my bottomline is that I believe that the information warrants inclusion in the report."

CIA Memo: Obama Team 'Excessively Involved' In Fueling Trump-Russia Narrative

by Tyler Durden
Thursday, Jul 03, 2025 - 12:40 PM
Authored by Luis Cornelio via Headline USA,

A newly declassified CIA memo revealed that top officials within the Obama administration deliberately manipulated intelligence to exaggerate Russia’s purported 2016 election interference. This set the stage for the years‑long Trump‑Russia collusion probe.

The review, commissioned by CIA Director John Ratcliffe in May 2025, reassessed the 2016 Intelligence Community Assessment on Russian interference.

It found then‑CIA Director John Brennan, FBI Director James Comey and DNI James Clapper were “excessively involved” in framing the initial Russia narrative.

On Dec. 6, 2016—just weeks after President Donald Trump’s election—then-outgoing President Barack Obama ordered the probe, concluding Vladimir Putin “aspired” to sway the vote.

However, according to the declassified 2025 review, Brennan, Comey and Clapper rushed the 2016 assessment in a “chaotic,” “atypical” and “markedly unconventional” fashion, raising questions about a “potential political motive.”

The review found intelligence officials felt “jammed” by the rushed timeline, with many seeing the draft report for the first time at the sole in-person review on December 19.

One CIA author called it “unusual” that so few changes were made to such a lengthy and high-profile assessment.

This rushed assessment ultimately cast doubt on Trump’s legitimacy and opened the door to the Mueller investigation, partisan congressional hearings, and countless media leaks.

“All the world can now see the truth: Brennan, Clapper and Comey manipulated intelligence and silenced career professionals — all to get Trump,” Ratcliffe said, thanking CIA officers who conducted the review.

New York Post columnist Miranda Devine broke the story on Wednesday, revealing the review’s damning conclusions.

The review confirms what was already widely known in conservative and Republican circles: Brennan, Comey and Clapper were the political architects of the Trump-Russia hoax.

Question for you Mike: Is trying to sell a golden statue of oneself a "very american thing to do"? Is it a smart business move? What does it tell us about a man who, by the way, is contributing to Israel's genocide of Palestinians, still to this day?

Why would some Trump supporters choose to ignore the glaringly idiotic stuff that he's putting out, while he's the commander of the most powerful military.

Anyway, the number of Trump's supporters seems to be seriously decreasing. Here's Scott Ritter's analysis about Trump's betrayal of USA voters:
Trump is a grifter.

The following is reflective of most independent media viewpoint about Trump:

“Trump’s Apocalypse? The “Chosen One” and the Prospects of World War III”

Excerpt:

“This is the moment in history that we all in the alternative media have been warning about for a long time that a global war will begin in the Middle East. The world will remember Trump and the rest of his regime which is staffed with Zionists, neocons and globalists as war criminals who secretly greenlighted Israel’s attack on Iran.”

So, the latest official declaration on the Epstein child trafficking saga, is that "the client list doesn't exist"?

Who else thinks that there's some truth to Elon Musk's claim that Eptsein has something on Trump. Or, at the very least, Epstein's extortion operation directly involved Israeli intelligence, and that's why Israel ordered Trump to keep the list under cover.

One little bit...? Trump certainly was very palsy with Epstein in the early days, so was Ivana also friends with Gislaine? If the accusation is true, did Ivana think she was just recruiting young models for Epstein? That little bit of a bigger story could go all over the place.

One little bit of whistleblower info casting a shadow over Trump from this post:

Posted by Delight (here)
Maria Farmer and Whitney Webb have almost a three hour conversation and this is Part 1. This was posted 2 years ago.

...how Ivana Trump, President Trump’s ex-wife, frequently accompanied Ghislaine Maxwell when she went to recruit pre-teen girls for Epstein, among many other claims that can and have been corroborated by existing evidence and other interviews Whitney Webb has conducted in relation to the Epstein case.

It seems like all high-level politicians have a get-out-of-jail free card, but after what Comey and Brennan put the USA through, I hope they serve time. Brennan has a history of contentious and dishonest interactions with Congress. He denied allegations that the CIA had spied on Senate Intelligence Committee staff, a denial that was later proven false. He lied about the Steel Dossier and about evidence which would prove Trump was a foreign agent. They both should pay a heavy price for election interference, election fraud and lying to Congress.


Trump says Brennan, Comey 'crooked as hell' amid FBI probe, may have to 'pay the price'



President Donald Trump reacted Wednesday to former CIA Director John Brennan and former FBI Director James Comey reportedly being under criminal investigation for potential wrongdoing related to the Trump–Russia probe.

Fox News Digital first reported about the probe, which is also evaluating whether Brennan allegedly made false statements to Congress.

During a meeting with African leaders in the State Room of the White House on Wednesday, Fox News senior White House correspondent Peter Doocy asked the president for his response to the investigation.

"Do you want to see these two guys behind bars?" Doocy asked the president.
