In a normal administration counterintelligence agents at the FBI would be investigating this photo. In this administration, the FBI director is in the photo.
Why, that’s Ali Abdelaziz is on the far left. Manages a lot of Russian, Belarusian and Chechen MMA fighters including Khamzat Chimaev, who is close to Kadyrov. Abdelaziz was an FBI informant until the Bureau dropped him because they suspected he was a double agent. Looks like Ka$h (far right) has forgiven and forgotten. These MAGA weddings are Mos Eisley cantinas for counterintelligence.

Corruption, profiteering and conflicts of interest have become hallmarks of Trump’s second term. Our democracy deserves better. It's time to ban presidential profiteering, once and for all. citizensforethics.org/report…

In 1933, Hitler created the Ministry of Propaganda, forcing taxpayers to pay for the Nazi propaganda used to control and manipulate them. They attack and defund education so you don’t notice when history repeats itself.
White House airs new taxpayer-funded TV ad featuring Trump “final battle” warning ahead of midterms.

Don’t worry, using taxpayer dollars to run ominous campaign ads of the President has been done before and is completely legal… in banana republics.

"Paid for by the US Government": Trump is using taxpayer dollars to air pro-Trump TV ads, including a 2024 campaign ad. A GOP senator says no public official, including Trump, "should spend public money on private ads for themselves." @baylisswagner nytimes.com/2026/09/27/us/po…

BREAKING: The Consumer Sentiment Index fell -3.6 points in September, to 48.1, its 2nd-lowest level in history. This marks the 2nd consecutive monthly decline, totaling -7.1 points. This comes as the Current Conditions Index decreased -1.0 point, to 50.9, its 4th-lowest reading on record. At the same time, the Consumer Expectations Index dropped -5.2 points, to 46.3, its 2nd-lowest since 1980. This year, the sentiment has deteriorated for all groups by age, education, geography, political party and income. The decline has been driven by a higher cost-of-living, as higher fuel prices, persistent inflation, rising mortgage rates, and weaker purchasing power. Consumer sentiment is at crisis levels.

Gas and diesel prices are ridiculous in the Permian Basin, Lubbock, Texas - top 5 most oil in the world!!! Everyone I talked to is furious and disgusted. It was under $2 in Dec of 2025 in Lubbock and because of Trump’s war with Iran it is now over $4 and diesel is near $6.

Another chance to… start another war? add another $4 trillion to the debt? spy on Americans w/o a warrant? fund a genocide? keep the Epstein files hidden? send more weapons to Ukraine? Usually when someone asks for another chance, they tell you what they’d do differently.

Kennedy: "I don't think any public official, including President Trump or Kristi Noem or John Kennedy, should spend public money on private ads for themselves ... I may end up with a sombrero on my head, but I also think we ought to have a rule that no politician can have a building named after him when he's alive"

Sen. Susan Collins says she was “totally cleared” of pay-to-play allegations by the FBI years ago. But FBI records show that agents remained interested in her office in early 2025, right up until the anti-corruption unit was gutted by Trump. propublica.org/article/debun…
