Trump Removes Sanctions on Russia to Help Oil Flow Amid Iran Conflict

More freedom for Russia from sanctions; more revenue for Russia to slaughter Ukraine.

Whatever Trump/Russia/Epstein is, and whatever Trump/Kushner/Witkoff side deals exist, this is a disgrace.

Very good sir, please continue to to tell the public that you're happy that oil prices are going up, that will play great in the midterms

The United States is the largest Oil Producer in the World, by far, so when oil prices go up, we make a lot of money. BUT, of far greater interest and importance to me, as President, is stoping an evil Empire, Iran, from having Nuclear Weapons, and destroying the Middle East and, indeed, the World. I won’t ever let that happen! Thank you for your attention to this matter. President DONALD J. TRUMP

Attorney General Pam Bondi has quietly relocated to one of several military bases in the Washington area where other Trump administration officials also live, after facing threats from drug cartels and critics of her actions in handling the Jeffrey Epstein case, according to people familiar with the situation.

Ms. Bondi moved from an apartment in the city within the past month in response to an array of threats flagged to her staff by federal law enforcement, these people said, including an uptick in criticism of Ms. Bondi, and threats relayed by investigators.

One catalyst was an increase in threats following the capture and prosecution of President NicolΓ‘s Maduro of Venezuela in January, according to a senior official with direct knowledge of the situation who spoke on the condition of anonymity to discuss security matters.

So Bondi moved into military housing like everyone else. NYT says ONE reason is bc she's in charge of prosecuting VZ's president (weird. Merrick Garland didn't have to hide during JOH prosecution).

Wanna bet that a more pressing one is her shenanigans re Epstein?

Democrats ask what happened to millions earmarked for Trump’s library ABC, Meta, Paramount and X reportedly agreed to pay at least $63 million in settlements with the president. The original fund was dissolved last year.

X
ABC
Meta
Paramount

These companies all settled lawsuits with Donald Trump by promising to donate as much as $63 MILLION to his presidential library.

But then, Trump dissolved a library fund.

So where'd the money go?

I'm pressing these CEOs for answers.

Keep in mind that Pete Hegseth's reported Pentagon spending spree happened just months after Trump and Republicans made devastating cuts to the social safety net in exchange for huge tax cuts for the rich.

And defense spending may soon hit a record $1.5 trillion.

Priorities.

Pentagon bars press photographers over β€˜unflattering’ Hegseth photos Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth’s staff took issue with photos taken in a rare briefing last week and decided to shut out press photographers from two subsequent news conferences.

Scoop: The Pentagon barred press photographers from briefings on the ongoing U.S.-Israeli military conflict with Iran after they published photos of Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth that his staff deemed "unflattering."

Whistleblower claims ex-DOGE member says he took Social Security data to new job The Social Security inspector general’s office is investigating allegations that the former DOGE engineer took sensitive data on a thumb drive in a major potential security breach, said people familia...

For months, we warned DOGE's access to Americans' private data was ripe for abuse. And here it is:

A former DOGE employee stole the Social Security numbers & personal info of over 500 MILLION Americans.

Musk, Trump, & their DOGE lackies must be made to answer for this, NOW.

In today’s game of Make Millions With Market Manipulation:

1. Energy Secretary posts that a tanker has been safely escorted through Hormuz.
2. Oil price falls 10%, friends buy.
3. Energy Secretary deletes post.
4. Oil price rises 12%, friends richer.

Thank you for playing, see you all tomorrow.

"Part of our obligation as big, powerful democracies is our ability to show a certain amount of restraint and proportionality," @sarahlongwell25.bsky.social says in discussing the Iran war. "We shouldn't be unable to say 'no, what I'm seeing with my eyes is too far...or making us less safe.'"

Wow -- as first spotted by @BadFoxGraphics on X, Fox & Friends this morning used *old footage of a previous dignified transfer* to mislead their audience about the fact that Trump wore a baseball cap during the one yesterday

How President Trump’s Image Permeates the White House and Beyond President Trump’s image β€” in paint and pixels, on posters and sculptures β€” is ubiquitous inside the White House, and beyond.

Republicans are pushing DOJ to bring criminal charges against Cassidy Hutchinson for spilling the beans on Donald Trump's Jan 6 shenanigans.

This is all about creating a chilling effect on anyone in the administration who is *currently* witnessing unethical/illegal behavior.

"It is fraud" -- Neguse nails Kristi Noem for lying during her testimony yesterday when she told the Senate that DHS's $220m ad campaign starring her "went out to a competitive bid" (it did not), and tells her "I think there's gonna be accountability" (1/2)

Balint to Noem: "You're the secretary of DHS -- for now. And you think you're immune from accountability. But I promise you this: one day he is not gonna be president anymore. And when that day comes, we will still be here. And in hearings like this, we are going to continue to prove your guilt."

Bessent Says Trump’s Tariff Hike to 15% Likely Coming This Week Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent said that President Donald Trump’s plan to increase a 10% universal tariff up to 15% will likely be done this week.

Words cannot express the insanity of slapping across-the-board inflationary tariffs in the middle of waging an inflationary war. It’s like they’re trying to crash the market or somethβ€” ah, I see now

Yeah like to put things in perspective, the damage done by Sergey Brin’s ex-wife single handedly funding large segments of the anti-vax movement probably undid shitloads of positive public health work done through philanthropy. The ability to use that money for evil shit is just far greater.
