15 of your citizens were on the planes that caused the terrorist attack, Mr. Crown Prince Salman.

This man is enabling one of the worst regimes of the Middle East (with Qatar and Iran being equally terrible).

Likely because his family and his former businesses have long ties with it. And with their royal family (the bin Salmans).

Q: Are the F-35s you're selling to Saudi Arabia the same ones being used by Israel? And if so, how does that allow for an edge for Israel?

TRUMP: I think it's gonna be pretty similar, yeah. This is a great ally and Israel is a great ally.

A lot of people didn’t like the Washington Post journalist who was tortured and dismembered with a bone saw for writing critically about the man sitting next to me

As discussed above, government employees have made extrajudicial statements that are troubling, especially where many of them are exaggerated if not simply inaccurate. (Doc. Nos. 118 at 2–8; 124). These statements made allegations regarding Abrego’s “character or reputation” and expressed government officials’ views on Abrego’s “guilt or innocence.” For example, the DHS Secretary stated that Abrego is a “MS-13 gang member, human trafficker, serial domestic abuser, and child predator.

A federal judge issues a GAG ORDER barring Trump's DOJ and Department of Homeland Security from violating Kilmar Abrego Garcia's right to a fair trial, citing a record of "troubling" statements that are "exaggerated if not simply inaccurate."

NEW: A federal judge slammed DHS Secretary Noem and Attorney General Pam Bondi for publicly attacking Kilmar Abrego Garcia in “exaggerated” and “inaccurate” ways — violating rules meant to protect the integrity of criminal proceedings.

TikTok too, especially when they have also been allowed to get illegal content into the platform as well.

Her work visa has been revoked—forced to self deport by end of month.

Son announced that he will have to close the restaurant for now.

ICE agent threatens to check deputy’s status during DUI stop, asks if he’s Haitian Scott Deiseroth told a Florida sheriff’s deputy that he would have his colleague deported if “not legit,” body camera video shows.

An ICE agent arrested in August on suspicion of driving drunk questioned the nationality of a sheriff’s deputy and threatened to check the deputy’s immigration status, according to newly released body-camera footage.

BREAM: Federal workers in Virginia lost jobs bc of DOGE. Your opponent points out unemployment is up under Youngkin/Sears

EARLE-SEARS: Actually unemployment is down

B: She points to numbers from BLS showing unemployment is up. Do you quibble w/data?

S: I don't know where she's getting stats from

Once again, where is the CNO? SECNAV? After what just happened in Quantico, when will the military top brass speak up?
I asked this after the disgrace at Ft. Bragg, too.

If sailors are applauding this nonsense, America is likely to be in more trouble than it seems to be.

Trump has become a dangerously erratic man that wants to suppress any dissent, to say at least.

Thanks.
FTR, the very first time I had to call NCIS (I was working for the Navy) and then the FBI because of threats from Trumpers was almost ten years ago. I also had to fight being fired; I told my family, including my young daughter, that I might be unemployed soon.

Blanche reported back to the White House that he believed Maxwell had been truthful and that she didn’t implicate Trump, according to people with knowledge of the discussions. The next week, Maxwell, who had raised concerns about her safety in the Florida prison, was moved to a minimum-security prison camp in Texas.

This WSJ story on how Trump so badly fucked up the Epstein response is mostly just a story abt how their own conspiracism, lying, and hubris backfired, but it does confirm Todd Blanche reported in before Ghislaine got moved.

Still, most important details still untold

“Russia can sustain extremely high levels of casualties and losses in human lives. They don’t care about people’s lives.” However, “it is painful for them to lose money...”
This is how the oil industry became the Ukrainians’ most important target."

"Since August, 16 of 38 Russian refineries have been hit, some multiple times. Among them are facilities in Samara, Krasnodar, Volgograd, Novokuibyshevsk, Ryazan...On Monday, they struck Gazprom’s fuel-processing plant in Astrakhan...Yesterday, they hit a key part of an oil pipeline in Bryansk"

Ukraine’s Plan to Starve the Russian War Machine Negotiations have stalled. Trump keeps changing his policies. Ukrainians, backed by Europeans, are taking matters into their own hands. ​​​​​

Negotiations have stalled. Trump keeps changing his policies. Ukrainians, backed by Europeans, are taking matters into their own hands, by targeting the Russian oil industry:

I am in close contact with the Estonian government.

We will continue to support our member states in strengthening their defences with European resources.

Putin is testing the West's resolve.
We must not show weakness. (2/2)

Today's violation of Estonia's airspace by Russian military aircraft is an extremely dangerous provocation.

This marks the third such violation of EU airspace in days and further escalates tensions in the region.

The EU stands in full solidarity with Estonia (1/2)

Trump is more akin to Ceausescu than to Hitler. Like Hussein, he was consumed by greed, an insatiable craving for power and for total control.

Sir James Dyson says Brexit was worth it, even if it's made people poorer.

Well, as the fourth richest man in the country, he won't be affected.

He's typical of the rich bastards who back Brexit. They're alright, so they couldn't care less about the harm inflicted on ordinary people

We don’t yet know what motivated the person who shot and killed Charlie Kirk, but this kind of despicable violence has no place in our democracy. Michelle and I will be praying for Charlie’s family tonight, especially his wife Erika and their two young children.

I'm horrified by the shooting of Charlie Kirk at a college event in Utah.

Political violence has no place in our country.

JUST IN: Senate Republicans defeated Chuck Schumer’s amendment to mandate release of the Epstein files.

Only two Republicans, Rand Paul and Josh Hawley, voted with Democrats.

What are they trying to hide from the American people?

What happened to Charlie Kirk today is an unfortunate event. Political violence should not be condoned nor accepted, from any political spectrum.

Even though I considered Charlie Kirk to be a prick, violence is not the solution.

More of this.

Graphic that shows Elizabeth Warren saying "People cant walk into a pharmacy the way that they could last month and get access to a COVID vaccine." RFK Jr replies: "It depends on the states." Warren replies: "Oh it depends? A year ago it did not depend. A month ago it did not depend."

Anyone who wants a Covid vaccine should be able to get one, no matter what state you live in.

And I suspect further chaos unleashed by Trump will reinforce EU/UK and Ukrainian scepticism about wider dialogue with Moscow rather than assuage it
bsky.app/profile/aphc...

Putting onus on the EU, UK and Ukraine to budge strategically for serious official dialogue with Moscow gets matters ass backwards. Europeans tried for years to find a deal with Russia through dialogue before 2022. To take a risk again they need to see a credible shift in Moscow

For all the EU's fault, after a certain point bashing the EU for dynamics emerging from Putin's fanatical inflexibility and Trump's strategic incompetence gets a bit absurd
