Milei praises Trump and Musk
At the America First Gala at at Mar-A-Lago, Milei praises Trump:
The world is a much better place, and the winds of freedom are blowing much stronger. [The election was] the greatest political comeback in all of history, defying the political establishment even at the risk to his own life.
And Musk:
I would like to thank the great Elon Musk for the wonderful job he has been doing to save humanity.
Milei also criticised unfair tax systems that caused “the redistribution of wealth at gunpoint”.
Trump says it is an “honour” to welcome him to Mar-a-Lago – and calls Milei “a MAGA person”.
The job you’ve done is incredible. Make Argentina Great Again… he’s doing that.
Stallone: Trump ‘second George Washington’
At an America First Policy Conference at Mar-a-Lago, Stallone introduces Trump by describing the opening scene of the first Rocky film where the camera pans down from a mural of Jesus inside an old church converted into a boxing gym as the character gets punched by his opponent, with the word “Resurrection AC Club” shown in the background.
At that moment, he was a chosen person and that’s how I began the journey. Something’s gonna happen, this man is gonna go through a metamorphosis and change lives. Just like President Trump.
When George Washington defended his country, he had no idea that he was gonna change the world. Because without him, you could imagine what the world would look like. Guess what? We got the second George Washington.

Trump: ‘We have a new star. A star is born – Elon!’
Trump praises Musk in his victory speech:
We have a new star. A star is born — Elon! He is an amazing guy. We were sitting together tonight. You know he spent two weeks in Philadelphia and different parts of Pennsylvania campaigning. Y’know he sent the rocket up two weeks ago, and I saw that rocket and I saw it coming down. When it left it was beautiful shiny white, when it came down it didn’t look so pretty, it was going 10,000 miles an hour and burning like hell. And I said, ‘What happened to your paint job?’ He said, ‘We’ve never made a paint job that can withstand that kind of heat’ …Only Elon could do this.
Musk responds to Peanut controversy

If you strike me down, I will become more powerful than you could possibly imagine’ Obi PNut Kenobi

Praises Loganair on 60th anniversary
Sturgeon praises Loganair on the company’s 60th anniversary.
For six decades now, Loganair, the oldest name in UK airlines, has made an exceptional contribution to the Scottish economy. Since 1962, the airline has helped keep the country moving, ensuring that people across Scotland are connected – particularly those living in and visiting our most remote communities. The importance of that has never been clearer than during the pandemic as the airline continued to operate, transporting patients, tests and equipment across Scotland and beyond. Loganair’s leadership in the net zero transition is also hugely appreciated and it should help ensure a very bright future for Scotland’s airline.

Holloway praises ‘GOAT’ Aldo
After his win over the Brazilian fighter, Holloway praises Aldo on Instagram.
Losing is part of this fight game. Saturday night takes nothing away from his legacy. This is a guy who would show up to his gym sometimes without eating in the last day because he was so damn poor. This is a guy who built the 45 division and became king. This is a guy who found motivation to keep earning what he already had. He defended his throne. For a decade. For honor. For his team. For his countrymen. This is a guy who didn’t start at pole position in this world and look at what he achieved. Brazil needs to celebrate that man. Acai with powered milk and cashews for everyone. He’s a GOAT, and his story will always be an inspiration to me and people of Hawaii. Obrigado, [Jose Aldo] Obrigado.
