"He depicted Putin as a victim of American injustice: 'He was accused of all that stuff. He had nothing to do with it. . . . The whole thing was a scam, and he had to put up with that.'" Whatever this is, it is *not* putting America first.
Trump’s Foreign Policy: Felons First
The pattern is clear—he’s using American power not to help Americans but to shield foreign authoritarians from justice.

“There was a darkly comic aspect to watching Europe try to flatter, persuade and finesse Donald Trump into being three things he is not: reliable, constructive and pro-Ukraine.”

THIS JUST IN: An investigation of Tulsi Gabbard's PACs shows much of the funds raised have gone to fundraising & to pay her advisers, not the stated mission of the PACs. Plus, she won't reveal the donors to a charity she runs. All this needs vetting. Pass it on.

Tulsi Gabbard keeps starting up PACs. Where is the money going?
When her appointment as director of national intelligence is vetted, the Senate should scrutinize her political operation.

Once again, Ukraine has been repeatedly striking territory Putin genuinely considers Russian (Crimea, illegally annexed in 2014) with Western supplied long-range weapons since mid-2023.

Any discussion of today's ATACMS strikes in Bryansk without this context is worthless.
