5 reasons why Ukraine will keep fighting even if Trump walks If the U.S. administration pulls American arms, fighting on would be difficult but not impossible for Ukraine.

EU countries seek urgent plan B to fund Ukraine Officials are looking at an EU bridging loan to help Kyiv stay afloat if they can’t agree on using Moscow’s frozen state assets in time.

Trump is supportive of imperialism in the WESTERN hemisphere, primarily. Venezuela, Panama, Greenland, even, God forbid...CANADA!

Meantime the US largely abandons Europe to Russia, and East Asia/West Pacific to China. He'll sell out Taiwan is the price is right..

Californians sharply divided along partisan lines about immigration raids, poll finds California voters are sharply divided among partisan lines about the Trump administration's immigration raids in Los Angeles and across the nation earlier this year, according to a new poll.

Not surprising. Being a Republican now, entails supporting Trump fascism. I'd be interested in further analysis of the Trump supporting Latino population. Ok, Cubans,...?

Evidently so!

White House Defends Witkoff After Leak of Conversation With Russian Official U.S. special envoy Steve Witkoff reportedly coached an aide to Russia’s leader on dealing with President Trump on Ukraine.

Indeed!

-Prosecuting the guards was "deferred"
