Venezuela has the world’s largest oil reserves, Nigeria is generally Africa’s largest oil producer, and Greenland is cited as having one of the largest undeveloped rare earth deposits outside China. Trump has threatened or used military force in connection with all three.

Jack Smith is calling for the House Judiciary Committee to release the recording of his full closed-door deposition before the panel.
"Doing so will ensure that the American people can hear the facts directly from Mr. Smith, rather than through second-hand accounts."

“Donald J. Trump had raped her along with Jeffrey Epstein.” ███████ noted some girl with a funny name “took me into a fancy hotel or building, that’s how it happened.”
Also this: she was advised to call the police. But she replied, “I can’t, they will kill me.”

Looking forward to Nancy Mace’s condemnation of these men in a women’s bathroom.
ICE agents illegally break into a woman's bathroom in a NY nutrition bar manufacturing plant. "Pull up your pants," says a male agent. The agents only had a warrant to review employer documents. They didn't have a warrant to search for, detain, or arrest anyone there.

Low oil prices, political risk and Venezuela’s deteriorated infrastructure are deterring investment.

In July, Trump’s ballroom was estimated to cost about $200M. By Sept that estimate had risen to $250M, and by Oct, Trump said it would cost around $300M. Now he's saying $400M. The bunker underneath will also have to be reinforced, that's on taxpayers.

Trump visited Moscow in 1987, then came home and bought full-page ads in major newspapers calling for the U.S. to pull back from its alliances. Some things never change.

Bloomberg reports that Trump is preparing a new 12 billion dollar aid package for farmers hurt by his own trade war, including up to 11 billion dollars in one time USDA payments. It is the second time he has had to bail farmers out because of his tariff policy.

There's been zero evidence released to the public that the boats that Trump has ordered destroyed in the Caribbean and the Eastern Pacific are drug runners and/or terrorists. Perhaps they are, but the evidence is not there.
