Trump did not disclose $19.8m loan

Donald Trump failed to disclose a $19.8m loan from a company with historical ties to North Korea, while he was the US president, according to a new report.

Documents obtained by the New York attorney general, and reported by Forbes, on Sunday indicate a previously unreported loan owed by Trump to Daewoo, the South Korean conglomerate.

Daewoo was the only South Korean company allowed to operate a business in North Korea during the mid-1990s.

Forbes revealed that Trump’s relationship with Daewoo is at least 25 years old. At one point, Daewoo partnered with Trump on a development project near the United Nations headquarters in New York City, Trump World Tower.

What an unfortunate juxtaposition, especially for the UN Human Rights chief.

Women human rights defenders are a powerful force. They challenge patriarchal sociocultural norms, harmful stereotypes, and promote their equal status in the family and in society. I admire their resolve and their courage. #16Days

Gender equality can only be achieved if all women, in all their diversity, are included. With only 1/10 countries protecting trans people from discrimination, trans women face particularly high levels of violence. Protection starts with recognition.#16Days #PushForward

All is not well on the trans progressive front. Nobody is progressive enough or trans enough or safe enough. There are no safe spaces. There are no space safes. All the wheels have come off, even the ones that never touched the ground.

Mermaids is refusing to let staff see a report into ousted boss Susie Green’s leadership because there are not “safe spaces” in which to read it.

You can’t trust anyone – not Susie Green, not staff, not Mermaids – no one.

Last weekend, a whistleblower told The Telegraph how Ms Green faced a staff backlash over her “incapable” leadership, culminating in the “nail in the coffin” report, seen by trustees.

Joanne Harris (Society of Authors important person) is still doing her Sneer At The Feminists thing.

Hur hur Hadley Freeman geddit – the fact that the Guardian wouldn’t let her write about gender ideology doesn’t mean she was canceled hur hur it just means she couldn’t write in the Guardian about an important trend harmful to women despite being a female, feminist columnist at the Guardian. That’s not being canceled hur hur.

Yesterday I spent an hour+ in tears on a zoom meeting explaining everything that has happened to me over the last 3 years. It's not funny or clever.

Lucy Bannerman at The Times reported in 2018 that Natacha Kennedy was “behind a smear campaign aimed at academics.” (I wrote about it at the time.) Cool to see Sally Hines citing Kennedy as a valuable source a couple of days ago, and even cooler to see Open Democracy publishing an article by Kennedy – an article throwing muck at feminist women who don’t kiss the asses of men who claim to be women.

A transgender lecturer orchestrated a smear campaign against academics across the UK in which universities were described as dangerous and accused of “hate crime” if they refused to accept activists’ views that biological males can be women, it can be revealed.

Sally Hines chastises the BBC for not pampering trans people enough.

⁦@BBCWomansHour⁩ Given the airtime you gave your ‘silenced’ guest this morning, this is an especially timely and extremely relevant article. Please read and reflect. It’s embarrassing how you fall for such disingenuousness https://t.co/5BP8kkDH8b

It’s embarrassing how seriously the BBC takes trans ideology, that’s what’s embarrassing.

I read the Open Democracy piece the other day and was underwhelmed but if Sally Hines thinks it’s timely n relevant who am I to continue to ignore it. It’s by Natacha Kennedy.

Joan Smith says goodbye Eddie Izzard:

Eddie Izzard likes pink. Pink coats, pink jackets — they’re all over the website promoting his failed bid to stand as a Labour candidate at the next general election. Labour’s colour is traditionally red but pink is for girls, and Izzard has been campaigning in what he coyly calls ‘girl mode’ for months now.

Triply insulting, isn’t it – the fetish for pink, the pretending to be a woman, the coyly calling it girl mode. Ugh. Imagine a grown woman doing that; now imagine a grown woman doing that in campaigning for public office. Making a game and a joke and an embarrassment of being a female person when you are in fact … Read the rest

Define “moderate.”

Republican moderate refuses to disown Trump over constitution threat

It doesn’t seem very “moderate” to me to give tacit support to a reckless self-serving criminal bully who says we should tear up the constitution and make him dictator.

“Whoever the Republicans end up picking, I’ll fall in behind” them, Dave Joyce of Ohio told ABC’s This Week, adding that he thought Americans did not want to look back to the 2020 election, the subject of Trump’s lies about electoral fraud and demand for extra-constitutional action.

We don’t want to “look back” at things that happened a few hours ago?

Joyce said: “I will support whoever the Republican nominee is. And I just don’t think that at this point

No that’s not it.

It’s not “reducing” people to anything to know what definitions are. Nobody says female body parts are the sum total of women, are what women are about, are all there is to know about women. They’re just the basic equipment, that’s all.

Feminism has challenged the assumption among advertisers and sexist men that tits and ass are all there is to women, but that doesn’t entail saying women don’t have tits.… Read the rest

There’s that misogyny.

I have a theory👇 hear me out. Most blokes in partic don’t think women are capable of being cruel or the aggressor. A flutter of the eyelashes, a plea for protection. A claim of vulnerability.

Jo Bartosch on the elite feminism that can’t define women:

Even seasoned Westminster watchers could be forgiven for not having heard of the Women’s Equality Party (WEP). Co-founded by luvvie-extraordinaire Sandi Toksvig, the group works towards the laudable, if somewhat woolly, aim of making “equality a reality”. But their brand of insipid dinner party feminism is sinking into irrelevance; washed away by a wave of grassroots women’s rights activists who are tired of playing nice.

I love the combination of luvvie-extraordinaire and insipid dinner party feminism. I mean the verbal combination; the actual combination I don’t love at all.

To date, the most notable achievement of WEP’s leader Mandu Reid has been to stand next to a woman who

Originally a comment by Mike Haubrich on Seven lousy days.

My dad thought unions were just greedy arms of the mobs until he watched Reagan fire and basically destroy Patelco, the air traffic controllers union. Dad was a Republican government employee of the Customs and all of a sudden he understood at a visceral level what it means to not have the ability to use a strike as bargaining power. It’s amazing that this was all it took to turn a Republican into a Democrat who in his later years took any opportunity he could to lampoon whichever Bush happened to be in the White House.

But, the problem is that there were not enough union members who saw … Read the rest

It’s Joe Manchin’s fault. Again. Charles Pierce explains:

Seven paid sick days. That’s what the U.S. Senate couldn’t cough up for the people who work for the country’s railroads, at considerably more risk and for considerably less money than anyone in the U.S. Senate takes or earns. The Senate—especially Joe “Friend Of The Working Man” Manchin, who couldn’t cough up seven lousy sick days—hung the president out to dry on this one, not to mention all the actual rail workers. Marco Rubio voted for the seven sick days. So did Ted Cruz, for pity’s sake. But Joe Manchin couldn’t be bothered. He was too busy planning another TV interview about how the Democrats have lost touch with their

Now there’s a headline.

Trump’s call for ‘end’ of constitution condemned by Democrats

Only Democrats? Democrats only? So Republicans are fine with it? Let’s tear up the constitution because Trump says so?

White House spokesman Andrew Bates said Mr Trump’s comments were “anathema to the soul of our nation”.

“You cannot only love America when you win,” Mr Bates said in a statement. He added that Mr Trump’s comments should be “universally condemned” – seemingly a pointed jab at senior Republicans who have so far avoided criticising the former president’s outburst.

What I’m saying. Trump is publicly saying he should be forcibly installed as dictator and Republicans are just nodding along.… Read the rest

Hadley Freeman in the Times:

What is now known as LGBT rights have firmly taken precedence over women’s rights. In 2021, Alexis McGill Johnson, the president and chief executive of Planned Parenthood, an organisation originally established to provide women with contraception, wrote an apology in the New York Times, saying Planned Parenthood had focused “too narrowly on ‘women’s health’, we have excluded trans and non-binary people”. 

It makes me want to smash things. “Too narrowly.” Imagine BLM saying “We’ve focused too narrowly on Black people” – saying it and apologizing for it. Imagine trans people saying they’ve focused too narrowly on trans people…and apologizing for it. It’s only women who are expected to go hungry while the real people … Read the rest

Trump urges throwing out the Constitution.

Trump on Saturday morning raged on his anti-Twitter app Truth Social about non-existent “fraud and deception” in the November 8th midterm elections – and he proposed scrapping the United States Constitution as a means to reinstall himself into the presidency.

Did he ask nicely?

“So, with the revelation of MASSIVE & WIDESPREAD FRAUD & DECEPTION in working closely with Big Tech Companies, the DNC, & the Democrat Party, do you throw the Presidential Election Results of 2020 OUT and declare the RIGHTFUL WINNER, or do you have a NEW ELECTION? A Massive Fraud of this type and magnitude allows for the termination of all rules, regulations, and articles, even those found in the

Investigation ratchets up:

The Charity Commission has escalated its investigations into Mermaids, the regulatory body announced on Friday, responding to “newly identified issues” about the governance and management of the transgender children’s charity.

Which being interpreted means: “This is worse than we thought.”

The commission will investigate whether there is “serious systemic failing” in Mermaids’ governance and management. The trustees have cooperated fully, but the regulator said their response had “not provided the necessary reassurance or satisfied the commission at this stage”.

But their response identifies as the necessary reassurance.

Investigators will assess whether the charity’s governance is appropriate in relation to the activities it carries out, which involve vulnerable children and young people.

Which involve vulnerable children and … Read the rest
