Leaders of both parties should be calling for Witkoff's immediate resignation after these remarks. He is a Russian patsy, a traitor, and this has just gone for too long. It is has to end.

How much more evidence do we need? The ultra-rich and the governments supporting them will destroy everything for the sake of profit, power and pride. Nothing is precious to them - not human life, not the living world - except their own wealth and status. Our survival depends on resisting them.

Meanwhile, the wealth of America's 935 billionaires soared by $1.5 trillion in 2025.
βGolden Ageβ for whom?
Trump is today telling every member of the US military that it is ok with him if Russia helps Iran kill them--every one.
