I assume Trump plans to declare war against Venezuela tonight.

All this to hide from the Epstein Files, and to expand his business interests in another country to gain access to oil.

It's not about the drug cartels.

Check this out. Right on, Bennie Thompson.
There hasn’t been enough appreciation for how thoroughly BENNIE THOMPSON humiliated FBI official GLASHEEN after he tried to sell the lie that ANTIFA is the top domestic terror threat.

The claim collapsed because it’s a cover.

ICE pepper-sprayed this 1-year-old girl.

Once at the hospital, the doctor had to call in a poison control specialist.

They had never seen anyone that young pepper sprayed.

Another horrific story.

More details below.

One citizen said that federal agents in Idaho pointed guns at her children, ages 6 and 8, and dragged her 14-year-old daughter out of a truck and zip-tied her.

The mother told investigators that an agent threatened to “fucking blow your head off.”

I had fun reading to some Burke Elementary students at the Chicago Public Library today. When the Obama Presidential Center opens next year, we’ll have a new branch of the library for the community to enjoy.

How can you tell Leavitt is lying (and Hegseth and Trump and Vance)? Her lips are moving.
FOX: You said the follow up strike was lawful. What law is it that allows no survivors?

Members of Congress have launched a bicameral, bipartisan effort to sharpen oversight of the Pentagon after a report on an alleged order by Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth to “kill everybody” in the military’s boat strike campaign spurred widespread condemnation over the weekend.
Republicans Probe Alleged Hegseth Order to “Kill Everybody” as War Crimes Mount
“Americans will be prosecuted for this, either as a war crime or outright murder,” one lawmaker said.

The president is a political cartoon of corruption come to life, a gaudy grifter who is selling off pardons and lining his pockets, building a golden ballroom and protecting his fellow sex predator elites, all the while regular Americans are suffering and struggling to make ends meet.

Donald Trump's approval rating has plummeted and keeps going down. The Epstein files loom over him and others. He has to create chaos, hate, and violence to maintain his power. He is a sick man. #Trumpdementia

@irishrainforest.bsky.social is absolutely right. And Ireland is not the worst example of this. I live where it is most egregious -- the United States.
Extreme wealth inequality is killing planet Earth, and hijacking political power so as to be allowed continue.

This is the most important thing to understand right now.

More #Trumpdementia. Best numbers? Is he lying to himself, or to all Americans, or both? I don't think he knows -- he's losing it.
Trump: "I have the best numbers for any president in many years. Any president. And I would say if you read it, it's pretty clear I'm not allowed to run. It's too bad."

(Trump's approval rating is currently at a historic low, even for him, so no, his numbers are not the "best")
