Trump's reckless tariffs have been crushing farmers.

He found $40 billion to bail out Argentina.

But only $12 billion to help the farmers hurt by his policies.

You deserve better.

Congress to withhold Pentagon travel funds until it sees boat strike videos Lawmakers quietly stuck the requirement into their must-pass annual defense policy bill.

Is it too much to hope that Congress is regrowing some backbone? Baby steps here, but important ones. www.politico.com/news/2025/12...

We are dealing with such corruption in every aspect of our government, I don't know how we undo the damage.

Today in Politics, Bulletin 266. 12/8/25 … Trump has been asked multiple times if he would release the tape of the second boat strike. He said that he would. But today he was asked about it by a reporter who happened to be a black female, so...

Trump attacks a reporter, Habba quits a job she never really had, & farmers get a $12B bailout. Plus: Noem on thin ice, MTG spills GOP secrets, Milo goes nuclear on Benny Johnson, and RFK Jr. does airport pull-ups for some reason. Ron's daily bulletin is out now β€” only on Meidas+! Check it out:

Video shows masked Border Patrol agent chasing woman back to her Louisiana home Jacelynn Guzman said she is a U.S.-born citizen. The Department of Homeland Security said Friday that it "determined the individual in question was not the target."

"She said she repeatedly told the agents she’s a U.S. citizen.

β€œI just kept repeating it β€” I’m a U.S.-born citizen. I was born and raised here. This is my home. My baby’s waiting for me...”

She screamed β€œLeave me alone...”

Democratic Rep. Jasmine Crockett is running for the US Senate in Texas. Allred to seek House seat Crockett, one of Congress’ most outspoken Democrats and a frequent target of GOP attacks, jumped into the race on the final day of qualifying in Texas.

β€œI’d have no problem releasing the video”

After a backroom meeting with Donald Trump and a donation to the Trump ballroom, NVIDIA got a deal to sell the most advanced AI chip it has ever sold to China.

The NVIDIA CEO should testify under oath in Congress.

Q - You said 5 days ago you were going to release the video of the second strike. Can we get an update on that?

Trump - You are a terrible, horrible nasty low-IQ woman and the worst reporter ever working for a terrible company! I never said that! Now you get nothing, fake news!

Lawmakers move to compel Hegseth to release military video of Sept. 2 boat strike β€” ABC News The legislative provision is tucked into a must-pass Pentagon policy bill.

Congress plans to force Hegseth to release unedited copies of the video of the Sept. 2 boat strike. They are putting the provision in the defense bill - If the videos aren’t released the Pentagon’s travel budget gets slashed by 25%.

Trump is letting NVIDIA export cutting-edge AI chips that his own DOJ revealed are being illegally smuggled into China.

His own DOJ called these chips "building blocks of AI superiority."

Trump and Lutnick need to answer to Congress on why they are selling out US security.

Governor Newsom announces $1.1B in zero-emission transit, safer roadways, and resilient infrastructure

The California Transportation Commission has approved $1.1B to fund new zero-emission buses, charging stations, and other infrastructure and investments to make California communities safer and more climate resilient.

As Trump fails to upgrade America's infrastructure, California continues to lead.

Good to see the White House finally admit what everyone else has known all along β€” tariffs are taxes on Americans.

California asked the Trump Administration back in February to request relief from Congress for the Los Angeles fires.

Nearly 11 months later, Trump has failed to send Congress that request β€” and his FEMA won't even schedule a meeting to discuss it.

Not only is ICE snatching hard working people who are trying to earn a living, they’re taking their money too?

A witness recorded ICE agents taking a cash box from a taco stand in La Puente during an operation where four people were arrested.

Great financial crisis? You mean when the housing market collapsed, banks went under, our GDP sank, the working class lost trillions in net worth and unemployment soared?

Seems like a repeat of the last time we tried to bully the world with isolationist tariffs.

Not good.
