Trump's tariffs will negatively impact almost 300,000 Wisconsin jobs—the highest percentage of any state.

This is climate arson, yes, but also the entire value proposition of Tesla, the reason for its insane stock price, is that it would end up the Amazon of electric cars: the only real game in town. Killing off non-Tesla electric car infrastructure is a gift to Musk.

The article reported that a former senior Soviet KGB spy chief claimed Donald Trump was recruited as a spy by Russian intelligence 38 years ago and given the codename “Krasnov.”

We are not confirming its validity, only pointing out the unusual nature of its disappearance.

Fact check: nearly 70 percent of US money for Ukraine actually went to US defense industry to replenish the stocks of OLD stuff that went to Ukraine to use.

Much of which we would have paid to destroy as their lifespan expired.

This is the MAGA agenda.

They want to slash benefits and cut essential programs for low-income and working-class people while padding the pockets of ultra-rich Big Oil and Big Tech CEOs.

Their corruption and greed knows no bounds.
