The Murky Plan That Ensures a Future War Who will benefit from the White House’s 28-point proposal for Ukraine?

Who will benefit from the White House’s 28-point proposal for Ukraine? For a decade, Russia has been seeking to divide Europe and America, to undermine NATO and weaken the transatlantic alliance. This peace plan, if accepted, will achieve that goal. www.theatlantic.com/ideas/2025/1...

Donald J. Trump ©® @realDonald Trump I HAVE JUST GOTTEN THE HIGHEST POLL NUMBERS OF MY "POLITICAL CAREER." While my great work on the Economy has not yet been fully appreciated, it will be! Things are really Rockin Stopping WARS and Foreign Relations seems to be a strong suit. Also great, The Border and Stopping Crime. I predict that the Economy, with the already HIGHEST STOCK MARKET, EVER, and prices coming sharply down from the Biden disaster, will soon be at the top of the list. MAKE AMERICA GREAT AGAIN!

Demented. His polling is heading towards an all-time low.

Hope so. After 2026 midterms - if US democracy still exits - Trump will be a lame duck and the infighting will explode

Newmarket MP Matt Hancock gave a £37bn Covid testing contract to Jockey Club director Dido Harding, who subcontracted it to Grand National sponsor Randox, employer of Tory MP Owen Paterson, whose late wife chaired Aintree racecourse. That's how the Tories handled the pandemic.

Trump sounds a bit more like Nero every day that passes

Now would be a good time to remind y'all of a few FACTS about dear leader🤔🧐....🫣

Good point!

I can‘t imagine that Johnson would ever “pay” for the disastrous political mistakes of his premiership. But there is imho enough circumstantial evidence for the CPS to investigate thoroughly the nature of his links with Russia and the flow of money from Putin’s oligarchs to the Tory party re Brexit

A reminder: The Attorney General of the United States should be the people's lawyer, not the president's personal attorney. The Department of Justice should act to protect the public, not just the occupant of the Oval Office and his political allies.

Every single news story about Trump hosting MBS at the WH today should include the tremendously lucrative business deals the Saudis have done this year with Trump Org to enrich Trump and his family personally, which is the primary reason why this is happening.

Trump suggests Khashoggi had it coming: "You're mentioning someone that was extremely controversial. A lot of people didn't like that gentleman that you're talking about. Whether you like him or didn't like him, things happen. But he knew nothing about it. You don't have to embarrass our guest."

So you mistakenly dismembered a journalist?

Mob boss attacks female reporter again for her “attitude” and says he will ask his FCC commissioner to look into revoking her company’s broadcast license.

Trump defends Saudi crown prince over killing of journalist as they hold talks in Washington - live The crown prince also tells reporters in the Oval Office that Saudi Arabia will invest $1tn in the United States.

Never found a rich criminal he won’t support.

CIA concludes Saudi crown prince ordered Jamal Khashoggi’s assassination Audio recordings, intercepted phone calls and other intelligence link Mohammed bin Salman to killing that Saudis say was conducted by rogue elements.

A reminder that seven years ago almost to the day, the CIA determined that Mohammed Bin Salman ordered the killing of @washingtonpost.com journalist Jamal Khashoggi.

I hired and worked with Jamal for a year.
