Does Trump Have a KGB Card? From campaigning to destroy NATO to selling out Ukraine to letting Russia help kill American soldiers in the Gulf region, Trump’s goal appears to be, to “Make America Russia”…

A deep dive into the overwhelming evidence that Trump is a Russian asset, if not an outright Russian spy, going all the way back to the 1970s and his first marriage to a good Communist girl from Eastern Europe.

The Risky Rise of Markwayne Mullin The former MMA fighter and business owner lacks a background in law enforcement, the military, or cybersecurity. Trump appointed him Homeland Security Secretary anyway.

To put it bluntly, Markwayne JimBob RickyBobby Mullet is just the latest laughably unqualified meathead appointed by Trump.

The envy of the world | Oct 19th 2024 | The Economist The envy of the world. Special reports from The Economist. You've seen the news, now discover the story.

Sigh. Remember when the US Economy was the envy of the world under Sleepy Joe? At least according to those Radical Left Lunatics at The Economist magazine -- England's Wall Street Journal.

Markwayne Mullin is the same dude already under scrutiny for suspicious stock trades.

And he’s supposed to run America’s national security.

• No government security experience
• No law enforcement background
• No intelligence work
• No military service
• Not even a bachelor’s degree

When in doubt, assume that what is actually happening is the exact opposite of whatever Trump is saying. By doing this, you will rarely be wrong.

That's what I think of when I hear people praise the founding fathers as gods. Our system is actually way more fucked up than a parliamentary system.

I’m hollering at my screen… yaaas!

Actress Sheryl Underwood, an Air Force Reserve veteran, is asking the questions we all want answers to.

“Why is this not impeachable? And where are the politicians that say, ‘this dude don’t have it all the way together, he cannot be the commander in chief?’” 🔥

Whitmer's office calls for probe into why weather service didn't issue tornado watch Whitmer's office questioned whether the lack of a tornado watch alert could be attributed to funding cutbacks at the National Weather Service.

Golly. It couldn’t be those DOGE cuts, hunh?

God Mode, Gas Prices, and the Gathering Recession Trump and Hegseth are treating war like a video game while oil surges, the labor market weakens, allies scramble, and the global bill keeps climbing.

The Biggest Pro-Trump Mega-Media Monopoly Ever (it’s already distorting war coverage) But this mega-media monopoly can be stopped. Here’s how.

“60 Minutes” was once a reliable source of tough reporting. Now it’s becoming a shill for the Trump regime.

It soon could get far worse. CBS News is on the verge of becoming part of the largest pro-Trump media monopoly in America

The reason we have “stupid rules of engagement” is to make sure we don’t bomb elementary schools.

This war on Iran is a case study in an administration that believes it has the means - and therefore the moral authority - to do whatever it wants.

It could have assembled a case, enlisted allies, stuck to a script.

But it can't be bothered, because it feels that to all be unnecessary.

Forever War Trump has spent the last decade (3 presidential campaigns) criticizing his predecessors for engaging in “regime change” and “forever wars.” Oops.

So far the war in Iran has cost an estimated $5.5 billion.

That's roughly $1 billion per day.

$41,666,667 per hour.

$11,574 per second.

People do not want this.

They want a living wage. They want healthcare. They want to be able to afford a home. They want their basic needs met.
