It could be, the whole purpose of the Trump GOP shutdown is to stop the Bureau of Labor Statistics from doing its job which otherwise would show the chaos of Trumpโ€™s fantasy tariff trade league.

Trump's conversation with Indonesian President Prabowo Subianto is caught on a hot mic. Hard to tell exactly what they are talking about, but Subianto asks Trump about meeting Eric Trump and Don Jr, who supposedly have nothing to do with government while they run the family business.

Approximately 20 percent of US voters will believe this, and those 20 percent are why Xi is making his play for world supremacy.

Yep. Itโ€™s why his favorite place to be is on Air Force One and why he believes his just reward is to claim personal ownership of the $500 million jet given to the US by Qatar and now subject of a $1 billion โ€œrenovationโ€.

Floridaโ€™s growth management was built from bipartisan consensus in the 1980โ€™s and has been eroded by sprawl developers, their lobbyists, and campaign contributions from the very first.

They are doing this, because they know their โ€œbreak everythingโ€ policies are breaking everything and there is nothing but violence in its place, so they are instigating violence in order to control the outcome.

Truth and lies:

It is a lie that DEM cities are muderous hellholes.

It is true that inflation is raging, that stock savings are cratering, that farmers are going out of business and require socialist bailouts because of Trump.

Oh. Look what happened while inflation is raging and Trumpโ€™s trade war could trigger a stock market crash โ€ฆ

โ€ฆ without overstating the case, this is the moment when US generals step forward to defend the constitution.

And one more thing. Anyone who publicly begs for, and publicly demands, the Nobel Peace Prize should never be given the Nobel Peace Prize.

These are agents who were sent AFTER the violent insurrection was well underway. Kash Patel issued a statement that said that after a fringe right wing outlet reported it falsely. But Trump chooses to run with the lie from them rather than the statement from his FBI Director.

Word on the street is that Trump intentionally targeted China with 100% tariffs so Barron could make hundreds of millions in crypto on a short trade.

It worked.

โ€˜Weโ€™re fighting for you!โ€™ Podcaster Ben Meiselas on taking on the Maga media โ€“ and winning the ratings battle His channel, MeidasTouch, puts out 15 videos a day exposing Republican failings โ€“ and it is getting bigger audiences than Joe Roganโ€™s. Is this the champion the American left has been waiting for?

I spoke to the hardest working man in podcasting: BEN MEISELAS of Meidas Touch, who's taking the fight to Maga (and beating Joe Rogan in the ratings), and doesn't mince his words about the state of US media, and its failure to meet the current moment.

Does anyone on earth believe that Mari Corina. Called this asshole and said that?

Can you imagine if any previous president said something like this?

Itโ€™s almost like they federalized Proud Boys without any training or pause. Just give them a different face mask. And let er rip.

Trump encouraged Netanyahu to destroy Gaza at the same time he is destroying democracy at home. Which one does he want the Nobel Prize for?

Turkeyโ€™s Erdogan Says Halkbank US Case to End After Trump Talks Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan said state lender Halkbankโ€™s legal case in the US is due to be resolved following recent talks with President Donald Trump, prompting bank shares to rise.

In case anyone missed this

ErdoฤŸa said that Trump ended Halkbankโ€™s criminal case after talks w him. He said that Trump told him โ€œThe Halkbank problem is finished for us.โ€

Halkbank was helping Iran evade taxes and launder billions.

Qatar and now this. The corruption is off the charts
