... Nicusor Dan came out as president.
Okay, that's it. I'm tired of hiding it. I'm going to come out as Prime Minister to my family.

- Title must match the article headline
- Not United States Internal News
- Recent (Past 30 Days)
- Screenshots/links to other social media sites (Twitter/X/Facebook/Youtube/reddit, etc.) are explicitly forbidden, as are link shorteners.
-
Rule 2: Do not copy the entire article into your post. The key points in 1-2 paragraphs is allowed (even encouraged!), but large segments of articles posted in the body will result in the post being removed. If you have to stop and think "Is this fair use?", it probably isn't. Archive links, especially the ones created on link submission, are absolutely allowed but those that avoid paywalls are not.
-
Rule 3: Opinions articles, or Articles based on misinformation/propaganda may be removed. Sources that have a Low or Very Low factual reporting rating or MBFC Credibility Rating may be removed.
-
Rule 4: Posts or comments that are homophobic, transphobic, racist, sexist, anti-religious, or ableist will be removed. “Ironic” prejudice is just prejudiced.
-
Posts and comments must abide by the lemmy.world terms of service UPDATED AS OF 10/19

Rule 5: Keep it civil. It's OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It's NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
-
Rule 6: Memes, spam, other low effort posting, reposts, misinformation, advocating violence, off-topic, trolling, offensive, regarding the moderators or meta in content may be removed at any time.
-
Rule 7: We didn't USED to need a rule about how many posts one could make in a day, then someone posted NINETEEN articles in a single day. Not comments, FULL ARTICLES. If you're posting more than say, 10 or so, consider going outside and touching grass. We reserve the right to limit over-posting so a single user does not dominate the front page.
We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.
All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.

No son of mine is gonna run country.
It's okay, honey. I'm sure it's just a phase.
It's not I'm serious, I have a whole economic plan based on the laffer curve. I'm going to be in power for years.
What if I am gonna run it into the ground tho? Will you be proud of me then, Papa?
Maybe transitioning to female would get you the acceptance you crave. Surviving a lettuce is optional.
Thats fine sweety, we still love you.
This is too woke even for me. Time to incel i guess.
Hoping they'll both end up rotting in prison for at least a while.
Or the rest of their lives, whichever comes last.
I’m so ashamed of the men that are giving these losers money. I blame society and shitty parents for raising boys so poorly. As men we need to talk to each other and teach each other how to be decent humans instead of succumbing to toxic, hypersexualized standards that society has groomed us for.
I’m gonna tell a straight tough guy that he looks cute tomorrow.
It's filter bubbles mostly. You always need counter arguments and modern technology is suppressing those. I believe banning algorithms will help a lot.
Social media algorithms is why Trump won and why right wing politics is very successful. It feeds on outrage which is all right wing politics is.
I'm confused. Aren't they in the USA?
They just visited. Somehow trump pulled that off.
He was running a recruitment drive with his millionaire golden visas.
Fuck me how is that sentence almost 100% accurate?
Birds of a feather......
Even Florida didn't want them.
because of the fact that Nicusor Dan came out as president
That's one hell of a transition! Guys, I'm coming out as a hunky billionaire!
...
...
Shit. I guess it only works for people who are sincere about their identity and want others to treat them in the way that feels respectful to them.
This is definitely still about presidents /s
hunky billionaire
That’s your problem. There’s no such a thing
Lot of em are kinda chunky, tho.
Well look at you! You've sure got the look of a well-to-do hundredaire! Keep it up!
I thought they were just extradited from Romania to Florida. Or did I hallucinate that?
It was not extradition, I think. They were simply allowed to come to the US, no court. Then, Florida was charging them with crimes so they fled. I cannot remember if Florida was charging them with new or old crimes.
Point is, they're fucking terrible and keep needing to flee countries.
Well, Mr Tater Tot popped in, left, then that girl raised rape allegations against him here, that happened WHILE HE WAS HERE FOR THAT SHORT TIME.
Think those came about while he was still flying back to his goon palace.
But... the idiots went to Florida because they thought they would be afforded some kind of safe harbour under the new regime. They weren't.
That wasn't an extradition.
Trump's State Dept asked Romania to allow them to be allowed to leave the country, Romania accepted.
I believe the charges were effectively suspended while they are out of Romania, but in theory the state prosecutor could restart prosecution at any time, these travel arrangements usually come with an agreement to "toll" (ie suspend) the expiration of the statute of limitations or requirement for speedy prosecution for some amount of time while they are out of country, so they can still be prosecuted at a later date.

The defendant is not physically within a certain jurisdiction (for example, a state or country).
"asked"
They just went there. They chose to do that after they were allowed to travel.
Bit quick for my liking. Any chance someone can slow it down a tad?
Best I can do is make the blade rusty and blunt.
Coat the blade with turds too, bonus if sepsis is the cause of death.
Poe wrote a thing called The Pit and the Pendulum, which you may enjoy.
A lighter, a bottle of acceleratent, and a carton of salt. Won't kill him directly but between the pain and inevitable infection he will wish for death.
Pulled this one from my ancestor, though he just kicked that priest into a fire and then poured a bag of curing salt onto him but more or less the same method.
That would be France.
This mf looks like a thumb with a constirpated face drawned
Rot in prison, bitches.

The Tate brothers will be extradited to the UK after they are tried in Romania, the British government said, according to The Telegraph, which quotes Security Minister Dan Jarvis.
The announcement comes after Andrew Tate gave a post, the day after the presidential elections, in which he said he was leaving Romania and hinted that he was doing it because of the fact that Nicusor Dan came out as president. In fact, he even supported George Simion and even gave several posts in this regard.
In March 2024, the Bucharest Court of Appeal ruled that the two influencers could be sent to the UK, but decided to postpone it until the conclusion of the criminal trial in Romania. That's after the Bedfordshire police obtained an arrest warrant, in which they are charged with rape, human trafficking and setting up an organised crime group.
Andrew Tate, 38, and his brother Tristan, 36, deny all the charges.
The minister's confirmation marks a first when a British official says the Tate brothers arrive in the UK to compare to justice.
In a letter sent to McCue Jury & Partners, Minister Dan Jarvis "expressed his deepest sympathy for all the victims of these abominable crimes. We are absolutely firm in our commitment to combat sexual violence in all its forms and support survivors. These persons remain criminally investigated in Romania for human trafficking, rape, money laundering and the establishment of an organized criminal group. It is notorious that the Tate brothers were arrested at the request of the United Kingdom, which was accepted and processed by the Romanian courts, who agreed that the brothers would be handed over to the United Kingdom after the conclusion of the internal proceedings in Romania.
Matt Jury, a lawyer representing the four victims who sues Andrew Tate, said: "Finally, we have confirmation from the UK government that the Tate brothers will be handed over by Romania to be tried in the UK when their prosecution is over. But this can only happen if they are in Romania at the time. It is now essential that the Labour Party ensures that this will happen and that the victims of Andrew Tate will be done to justice. Brothers can't be allowed to slip through their fingers. While we welcome this important step, the Security Minister has not yet been able to explain why the United Kingdom did not call for the extradition of the United States or the United Arab Emirates when it had the chance.
Last month, there was talk of the possibility that the Tate brothers could be arrested and extradited from Florida days before the information that revealed she had assaulted her ex-girlfriend in Los Angeles. However, no request was made from the Ministry of the Interior.
The office of James Uthmeier, Florida's attorney general, said on March 7 that he was prepared to "go through" any official extradition request issued by British authorities.
Andrew Tate is accused of suffocating his ex-girlfriend Brianna Stern so loudly that he almost lost consciousness. It all happened at Beverly Hills Hotel on March 11. He denies the allegations.
She claims the assault took place at the time when Andrew and his brother Tristan left Romania for Florida on a private jet in February after a court order was lifted to them that restricted their travels.
Ship 'em by boat and push them overboard halfway through
Poor sealife. We gotta stop dumping waste in the ocean!
Just keel haul 'em the whole way back.
lol that’s stupid expression. I know that bad actor look, I made the same face to my parents when I told them I didn’t steal the vodka and replace it with water. “What, no way, it wasn’t me..”
That thumbnail though...hahaha
He always looks like he just smelled shit wafting through his underwear
The Taint Brothers.
