This can’t be true because Trump said tariffs were going to pay for everything and we were all going to get $2,000 checks with the money left over.

Did Convicted Felon Donald Trump's supporters vote for better health care or lower food prices?

No, they voted for the Felon to revamp a golf course that none of us will ever be able to use.

Sarcasm intended. 😒

Trump wants to overhaul the 'president's golf course.' He hasn't played there yet
Presidents often find solace in golfing, and Joint Base Andrews in Maryland is a favorite spot because it's close to the White House and has built-in security.

Trump’s plan to ‘run’ Venezuela for its oil is already facing problems

Regime change is the easy part. Restoring oil production amid chaos, corruption and nationalist resentment takes years — if it happens at all.

America crossed many Rubicons by attacking Venezuela on Jan. 3, 2026

We are now a rogue nation. Any rules-based global order is dead. Trump is a dictator, without Congress, public approval or legal restrain. And an axis of evil is carving up the globe

Trump's illegal war on Venezuela cemented his claim to dictatorship and marked the U.S. as a global pariah.

Now that Republicans finally released the video and transcript of Jack Smith’s deposition (hidden on New Year’s Eve), it’s time to grant Smith’s request to testify in a public hearing like every other Special Counsel has done.

The American people deserve to hear the truth live.

🚨Across two presidencies, Trump has granted about 100 drug-related clemencies, including second-term relief for prosecutors’ major traffickers, as U.S. deadly strikes on boats near Venezuela killed some 87 suspected smugglers.

"Venezuelans at celebration parties in Miami could not believe it, insisting that Trump had misspoken. His plan appears to be for Venezuela to remain under the day-to-day rule of a senior chavista, with its democratically elected leaders excluded and its wealth controlled by American corporations."
Donald Trump wants to run Venezuela, and dominate the western hemisphere
Snatching Nicolás Maduro and attempting to take control of Venezuela and its oil is an extraordinary display of the new “Donroe doctrine”
