It’s “the perfect example of where the Biden administration did something for a very rural Appalachian area, but it wasn’t pushed by the press in this area. People don’t see truly who’s trying to help them."
WASH POST: “Dollar down 10% under Trump… the key to the dollar’s drop is the ripple effect of the president’s erratic policymaking, including abrupt stops and starts with tariffs and military action against a lengthening list of countries…” www.washingtonpost.com/business/202...
Here’s the thing - Trump blaming a staffer for a wildly racist post might hit a little different if his official government DHS/DOL feeds weren’t posting a steady drumbeat of white supremacist messaging all day every day
Everyone in the White House involved in any way with that vile, sickening racist Trump post must be fired immediately: everyone in the communications department, everyone in the press office, every deputy chief of staff, everyone involved up and down the line. Not one more tax dollar for this filth.
BREAKING: President Trump removes a racist video depicting the Obamas as apes. The White House initially defended the post, then blamed it on a staffer.
Black farmers are getting shut out by the Trump administration.
John Boyd, president of the National Black Farmers Association, says the WH told him, they are “moving away from DEI and small farm issues, and they were focusing on large-scale white farms… because they produce the most food.”
In 2017, it was revealed Yuri Milner—a Russian Israeli investor—used hundreds of millions of $$$ from the Kremlin to invest in Facebook, Twitter, and a Jared Kushner venture.
Epstein phrased it this way:
“the paradise paperrs show the kremlin funneling mone= to kushner by using uri milner. whoops”
"If careerists had not been so easy to bribe and blackmail, ordinary people would not have to suffer under this group of sadistic oligarchs and politicians. Our era is the culmination of complicity."

From HIDING IN PLAIN SIGHT:
"Trump covers up crime with scandal. That is his main propaganda tactic, the one few seem to be able to discern...The crimes are much worse than the scandals, but the media will always take the scandal bait."
How come trump and republicannot governor abbott in Texas are sending mailers to old people encouraging them to vote by mail? even attaching the application for by mail ballot.
was this just 17 days ago? see how trump keeps so many outrageous things in the "news" so that we don't see the crimes? Sarah Kendzior's books, Hiding in Plain Sight and They Knew highlight that trump likes the scandals so we don't see the crimes!!!
trump has pardoned not just so many low-life criminals like the J6ers but many convicted white collar criminals, and it is just astonishing that the media doesn't ever focus on how many bad people trump has pardoned in even just the one year of 2025.
This has the ring of truth. When the public is outraged by something & the bad publicity (like Minneapolis) is gaining countrywide steam, trump regime creates some other outrage to distract.

Here's what Dems should do:
1) Double down on the demands.
2) Make clear there will be no additional funding.
If the GOP wants to shut down DHS, that's on them.
Don't surrender to pushback from these goons. Take inspiration from the people of Minneapolis.

CBP—the nation’s largest law enforcement agency—has been plagued for two decades by a tidal wave of crime, corruption, and misconduct.
Criminality is so rampant inside CBP that it has seen one of its own agents or officers arrested every 24 to 36 hours since 2005.
🚨Throughout his career, Justin Olson attacked women, pushing radical beliefs about fetal personhood and undermining our basic rights.
He once preached that "wives are the subjects of their husbands."
Senate Republicans just gave him a lifetime judicial appointment.
Same-sex marriage is under attack again. The Christian nationalist right has launched a new campaign, and, unsurprisingly, it’s using children’s safety as a pretext to roll back equality.
I am so glad Randy is home after being illegally detained by ICE—and I am furious that this happened in the first place.
ICE & CBP are out of control. I will do everything I can to rein in these rogue agents.

It's often the same people: dual Russian-Israeli citizens involved in organized crime. This dates back to the USSR and Semion Mogilevich (whose Israeli passport was procured by Robert Maxwell) to today's oligarchs like Roman Abramovich, who got Israeli citizenship after Russia was sanctioned.
