Donald Trump's case for imposing military occupations is not as strong as media and intellectual elites claim that it is.
🚨 Trump has called for troops to invade Chicago. In a late night post, he falsely attributed vacancy rates to "murder and crime." The Magnificent Mile is experiencing retail recovery, decreasing vacancy rates and increasing foot traffic (10/8/25). There is no Miracle Mile Shopping Center in Chicago.

Democrats should not vote to enable Donald Trump to be a dictator.
Now that Dems have capitulated, at the very least they should now make every future extension of funding contingent on Trump following the law. Any lawbreaking must be met with: No more votes from us, period.

So we asked all 40 Democratic senators who didn’t cave to Republicans if they still think Schumer is the right leader.
Here's what they said.

American media elites may have exaggerated the value of Donald Trump's cultural contributions.

Trump is now claiming "affordability" issue that caused epic GOP losses is a "con." Repubs aren't allowed to contradict the despot, so that's become GOP gospel. Meanwhile MAGA coalition is fracturing.
