Something unprecedented happened during my visit to the Gulf. For the first time in 20 years in Congress, I was denied entry to U.S. military facilities and even meetings with military leaders. An order from Hegseth - that applies to both parties - to hide the cost of the war.

UPDATE: Trump just awarded another $3 BILLION military contract to a company backed by his son Don Jr. (and Peter Thiel) — what skilled businessmen these Trumps are! Robbing the American taxpayer in broad daylight.

Garcia-Navarro: Trump called for journalists to be arrested… Rantz: He's not calling for them to be arrested. Garcia-Navarro: I’m actually reading it on the screen. Rantz: Don't conflate criticism with a legitimate threat of throwing someone in jail Navarro: So when he says they should be arrested, it means what now? Rantz: It means he’s being critical, you never heard that before?

For the International Criminal Court (ICC) in The Hague: Russian propagandist Solovyev says that Russia’s goal is to kill all residents of Ukrainian cities: "And to those Kyiv residents who are still there, I repeat for the hundredth time: leave the city. You are doomed. To the residents of Odesa and Mykolaiv: you’ve had your laugh. When people ask, 'Do we really have to think about them at all?' Yes. We are thinking about where to bury all of you." Calls for the mass murder of civilians are classified under international law and national legislation as among the gravest international crimes and criminal offenses and may fall under several key categories: • direct and public incitement to genocide; • instigation of war crimes and crimes against humanity; • war propaganda and incitement to hatred.

South Korea expects apologies from Ukraine regarding disclosure of the transfer of two North Korean prisoners of war, but shouldn't the apology be made the other way around? More than 176,000 tonnes of fuel, mostly diesel, was shipped from South Korean ports to Russia in July and August, according to Guardian analysis of port and ship-tracking data. Seven tankers made 14 voyages to Russia’s Far East, including three vessels under UK and EU sanctions. In August alone, South Korea supplied 112,000 tonnes, or 31%, of Russia’s seaborne oil-product imports. The shipments do not appear to violate South Korean law, the Guardian reported. #Russia

Liberalerna vill se en blågul regering ledd av Ulf Kristersson. Det har jag också meddelat talmannen. Vi tänker inte rädda Socialdemokraterna från deras eget regeringsunderlag. De rödgröna har inte ens lyckats samla sina partiledare till ett möte. Magdalena Andersson firade valresultatet med tårta, nu måste hon också göra jobbet. Hennes sonderingsförsök hittills är att beteckna som patetiskt. Svenska folket förtjänar en seriös regeringsbildning, inte en charad där andra förväntas göra Anderssons hemläxa. I grunden finns en icke-socialistisk majoritet i riksdagen. Liberalerna vill att den samlas bakom en borgerlig politik. Men det förutsätter att ansvarstagande får gå före avståndstagande.

It must be said that @SenEricSchmitt, who is one of the most rabidly white supremacist members of Congress, is a testament to how fucking pathetic those racists are. You're stupid, Eric, and a testament to how privilege makes men weak.

"We found that [Trump] caused that violence, that it was foreseeable to him, and that he sought to exploit it."

Ken Paxton: The criticism has been that I let a child predator out after one day. Well guess what? They served 60 days.

Russian-appointed official Volodymyr Saldo says occupation authorities do not plan a mandatory evacuation from Oleshky, arguing it would be unfair to residents who want to remain and claiming people can leave without restrictions. Ukraine says roads around the occupied city are mined and there is effectively no safe route for civilians. Kyiv has sought a humanitarian corridor but says the Russian side has not agreed to open one. #Ukraine

So far Trump has tried to rig the midterms by: 1. Attempted to nationalize voter registration & voting requirements 2. Mid-decade gerrymanders 3. Use USPS to obstruct mail-in balloting 4. Used taxpayer money for ads 5. Intimidation of election officials 6. 5K bribe checks

🚨 FACT: There is a federal criminal law that prohibits any armed agent of the federal government from being at the polls. There is only one exception. Marc Elias explains. Stay in the know: demdock.com/Pk39XwB

ICE drag man out of van headfirst—throw him down to pavement. 6 agents literally all jump on top of him at once—for a full minute. Then pick him up & slam his head against van door—after already handcuffed. 2 men were just driving to work when violently detained during traffic stop. This arrest fits the documented shift to worksite arrests in ICE’s Los Angeles area of enforcement. June and July 2026 were the highest months of this administration—with about 4,300 California arrests and 1,406 in the Los Angeles field office in July alone. Adding up to roughly 50,000 California arrests from January 2025 through July 2026. K. Serrano doesn't have an account on this platform—so posting first full length and credited video here to help raise awareness.

This is an extraordinary story of extortion and hypocrisy. The U.S. Ambassador to Greece Kimberly Guilfoyle — a close Trump ally and former fiancée of Donald Trump Jr. — admitted that the United States helped bring down governments that stood in its way. During a private dinner in Athens, while discussing the collapse of Romania’s government, Guilfoyle said: “We can do this to any country we want. We can do it here too.” The Greek energy minister pushed back, saying the United States cannot simply replace a government elected by the people. Guilfoyle insisted that they have already done this in Romania. On March 31, Guilfoyle met privately in Bucharest with senior Romanian Social Democratic officials. The discussion included the Vertical Gas Corridor and energy cooperation. Weeks later, the Social Democrats joined the pro-russian AUR party in a no-confidence vote that brought down Prime Minister Ilie Bolojan’s government. Bolojan had resisted a proposed arrangement involving expensive U.S. gas imports. So, according to Guilfoyle, Trump administration engineered the collapse of Romania’s government in a clear extortion attempt. And to do so, they have collaborated with a far left party - the communists as MAGA calls them. Anyone who still has any illusion that MAGA is a “conservative movement” needs a serious reality check.
