Going away in the next decades; presidential pardons, gerrymandering, the electorate, disproportionate representation.

Appointing Kevin "Clown" Hassett as Fed Chair would be disastrous for the economy and for global confidence in U.S. treasury bonds.

Since World War II, Western countries have spent trillions to hold back Russian imperialism. Yet now, when Russia is at one of its weakest points ever, the resolve to defeat the world’s leading generator of chaos seems to have disappeared.

JD Vance: “Just as you follow the orders of the President of the United States, this President stands by you. If he asks you to do something hard, it’s only going to be for a very good reason".=>Plenty of people have already gone to jail for Trump, you’re next, but it’s a price he’s willing to pay.

Slovakia backing Trump’s surrender plan for Ukraine tells you all you need to know about the origins of that plan.

Rewarding Russia instead of punishing it is like giving a dog a treat after it bites your neighbor’s kid.

Ryanair is losing two landing slots at Eindhoven Airport after repeatedly violating the night curfew. It’s not just Eindhoven, Ryanair has been doing this consistently and deliberately at airports with low penalties across the EU for years.

Kirill Dmitriev wants Elon Musk to build a tunnel between Alaska and Russia for $8 billion. The Winter Olympics in Sochi cost $50 billion and consisted of a highway, a few arenas, and a renovated ski lift. Anyone taking this tunnel seriously should see a doctor.

Just like when Trump threatened Myanmar, nothing will happen to Nigeria. It’s just his way of telling some of the most corrupt regimes in the world that it’s time to buy worthless crypto from the Trump family.

Hegseth personally doesn’t know the top generals and can’t really know who to fire or keep. If he got a “who to fire” list from Russia, Lt. Gen. Joe McGee would be among the top ten names on it.

Trump owned Miss Teen USA and Miss USA for almost two decades without owning a fashion brand, so it wasn’t a financially sound investment. However, it did give him access to an unlimited number of girls seeking fame.

The heroes of Flight 93 stopped the 9/11 terrorists from destroying the White House, but who is stopping Trump?

The only purpose of the Budapest summit is for Putin to showcase the divisions within EU and to demonstrate that international law does not apply to him. Peace is not an option for Putin.

Putin’s plan to break Western society has been brewing for 30 years — slowly cooking the frog by funding both left- and right-wing extremists, bribing gullible politicians, and investing heavily in a massive propaganda machine.

This Friday is a big day for the Donald, because he won’t be awarded the Nobel Peace Prize. One big reason is that, unlike the other prizes he’s received, he actually has to deserve this one. Cutting USAID overnight and siding with Putin are not really helping either..

Tomorrow marks Putin’s birthday, a date linked both to the murder of Anna Politkovskaya, one of his fiercest critics and to Hamas attack, carried out with weapons supplied by Russia through Iran.

An important reason for Trump’s ‘You’re fired!’ catchphrase is that he doesn’t know how to hire the right people. While functional managers look for performance, Trump looks for appearances, obedience, and people with a minimal moral compass — and that only works for so long.

I guess Trump was given a lesson in Putin’s imaginary ‘spheres of influence’, meaning that if Russia gets Ukraine, the U.S. should have Venezuela. Trump most likely believed him.

According to Russian officials, the tiny Danish island of Bornholm is somehow a threat to Russia’s very existence. There must be an internal competition to issue statements dumber than Lavrov’s, which is already a pretty high bar to clear.

It’s freedom of speech, not freedom to spread hate. If freedom of speech only applies to the ruling party, then it’s not freedom of speech at all.

So, the ATF doesn’t know ammunition carries manufacturer’s stamps?

The botched SEAL operation in North Korea tells us two things: the U.S. has no HUMINT in North Korea and has ruined its relationship with the South Korean intelligence community for some reason

The deployed ICE agents in Alaska are now wondering what to do with all the garlic and silver bullets they brought in case Putin escaped from the airbase.
August 16, 2025 at 5:58 AM
So Trump calls Stoltenberg to ask about the Nobel Peace Prize… again. Like he has any influence. The only way Trump could even be considered for a real nomination for next year’s award would be if he arrested Putin and sent him to The Hague for trial for his war crimes.

Can Sean Duffy please let us know when he’s ready to take responsibility, stop blaming everyone and everything, and start doing his #@&‰ job?
