This isn't new information though. The US has regularly been the bad guys. The US destabilized Central America starting in the 1950s. Climate change also destabilized countries. Republicans want to keep out the refugees & asylum seekers the US created. huffpost.com/entry/refugee-c…

Like I said, Trump is selling out the Ukrainians, turning his back on our allies, and helping Putin and we'll find out it was all b/c of business deals that will enrich Trump, his family, and his cronies. Not sure I can think of a lower point in U.S. foreign policy in my life.
BREAKING WSJ: Vladimir Putin has proposed that he, Trump, and Xi Jinping meet next month to talk about Ukraine in an attempt to negotiate an end to the four-year conflict that would favor Moscow. wsj.com/world/russia/putin-f…

Ossoff: There’s only one man who tried to commit voter fraud in the state of Georgia in 2020, and it was Donald J. Trump when he called up Brad Raffensperger and demanded that he find him the votes he needed to win in a state that he’d lost. Every day, we see him dig the moral pit deeper. But, Pastor, I think it’s in Proverbs where it said that he who digs a pit… will fall into it.

JD Vance admits white men become radicalized into doing dangerous things because they're allegedly feeling demonized by being called white. Meanwhile, Black people are demonized for our skin color almost daily & haven't been radicalized to mass murder white people.
JD Vance makes excuses for white nationalists: "When you demonize a guy because he's white, it's just as evil as when you demonize a guy because he's Black. When you demonize a guy because he's white ... some people will get radicalized into some very dangerous ideas."

The Washington Post just obtained the internal donor list for President Trump’s ballroom, and there’s one big red flag I wasn’t expecting. It involves Julio Herrera Velutini, an international banker indicted in 2022 on bribery charges tied to Puerto Rico’s former governor. After the 2024 election, his daughter gave $3.5 million to a pro-Trump super PAC. His charges were reduced to a misdemeanor in August 2025. The next month she pledged $2.5 million to the ballroom and paid the first $835,000 in October. In January, Trump pardoned him. That’s just the latest revelation. The other ballroom donor info shows $333 million steered into a White House account the president directly controls, with at least $77 million coming from donors who asked to stay hidden. About half the money came from companies or executives with federal contracts. This whole thing is rotten to the core. wapo.st/4yiUDPx

Stop what you are doing because you need to read this. Billions of dollars in oil trades were perfectly timed to Trump’s decision to back off attacking Iranian power plants. Trump announced the reversal just 15 minutes after those trades were placed. Stocks surged while oil prices plummeted, setting up whoever placed those bets to make a fortune. Career analysts at the CFTC, the agency responsible for policing these markets, did exactly what they were supposed to do: they started digging. And what they found was serious enough to refer the trades for a potential insider trading investigation. That is, until a senior advisor to a Trump appointee shut it down. Congress needs answers about who made these bets, who had advanced knowledge of Trump’s decision, and why political leadership at the CFTC stepped in.
CFTC staff analyzing oil trades for insider trading around the U.S.-Iran war were told to retract their referral to the agency's enforcement division | h/t @CGorrivan bloomberg.com/news/features/…

Because God forbid Trump ask pertinent questions to evaluate a candidate. Reminding him of Ivanka is his only criteria & he clearly watches them on TV with the sound off.
Fox: Do you wish you had disclosed to Trump that you didn't pass the bar? Zacharia: Those questions weren't asked

Trump has betrayed Ukraine and now essentially operates as an agent of Putin a brutal dictator invading a free sovereign nation.
Trump's abandonment of a democratic Ukraine and embrace of autocratic Russia during wartime will be recorded in future history books as one of the greatest, tragic mistakes in American foreign policy in our nation's history.

No report on how much money billionaires have saved in taxes until AFTER THE ELECTION ... no report on the U.S. military's murder of 170 Iranian children until AFTER THE ELECTION. See a pattern here?

He's actively helping Russia against Ukraine while Russia provides support to Iran and against our own military. There's a word for that.
The lack of action from the US in response to the situation in Hormuz is remarkable. Dozens of ship attacks, a ship sinking, and still no change in the US posture. Trump continues to promise action, but only after the US mid-terms. Until then, Iran (seemingly) has carte blanche.

Pretty clear that Trump/Hegseth are doing everything they can to force Ukraine to surrender to Putin by withholding all US assistance while actively helping fund the Russian war machine to kill as many civilians as possible including kids. What a dark, evil chapter in US history.

WOW. Kristi Noem and Elon Musk, among others, "chose to turn the power of the federal government against a singular employee with an impeccable record. ... The attacks against Ms. Comans were based entirely on false information" and many officials "knew [they] were untrue."

Basically the Republican campaign strategy for the midterms across the country appears to be to just say “transgender” as often as possible and hope voters hate enough to forget how much things cost and how corrupt they are.

Trump’s ex-chief of staff John Kelly said this to me, six years ago: “I don't know how he’s not in an institution somewhere, whether it’s jail or a nuthouse. He’s a seriously sick guy. I never heard him saying anything that wasn’t a lie.” Trump has only gotten worse since.
