Vladimir Putin likes this plan.
The plan, drafted without Ukraine’s knowledge by Donald Trump’s special representative, Steve Witkoff, and Vladimir Putin’s envoy, Kirill Dmitriev, checks off many of the maximalist demands familiar from earlier Russian proposals, and adds a few more
A terrible American-Russian proposal to end the war in Ukraine
Steve Witkoff’s “peace deal” looks like a Russian wish list, and Ukraine is not biting

No one could’ve seen this coming.
Trump commuted the sentence of convicted scammer Eliyahi Weinstein in 2021. He's now going back to federal prison for 37 years after being convicted of a committing a new Ponzi scheme involving fraudulent promises of aid to war-torn Ukraine.
Trump commuted N.J. con man’s sentence. Now he’s going back to prison for new Ponzi scheme.

Covering Jamal Khashoggi's murder was one of the most disturbing things I've worked on. Hearing Trump say he was "extremely controversial" and people "didn't like him" is chilling. Hard to take any other way than he thinks there is moral ambiguity in the murder of a journalist.

No goddamn words.
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."

Now we see what the gig is: Will DOJ release the files or will they claim their lopsided investigation into only Democrats (despite Bondi’s July statement that the evidence didn’t support any additional prosecutions) means they won’t release anything.
You might not have caught what just happened on the Senate floor, but the Senate just “deemed as passed” the Epstein resolution.

That means as soon as it arrives from the House, it automatically passes the Senate (with no amendments) and heads to the President’s desk.

Wow.

AOC: Trump has been saying the economy is booming, but it’s really only seven tech companies. They’re driving this growth in just one sector: AI.

So the entire economic growth can be tracked down to seven companies and their AI expansion…

"Things happen" sometimes, like when you walk into an embassy to apply for your marriage license while your bride-to-be waits outside, but then you get bonesawed to pieces for having exercised freedom of speech as an US-based journalist and have to be carried out in a series of suitcases.
