Trump admin agrees to pay $1.25M to 2016 Trump adviser over surveillance DOJ OK'd the settlement with Carter Page, but he could still press claims against ex-officials.

A new wholly corrupt settlement handing your money to Trump cronies.

It’s notable for several reasons:

Plus $640 million then another $50 million to Jr from the Pentagon.This family has never been richer. The presidential term of grifting. This is just what we know about.
Who knows what they are doing behind closed doors. Considering trump has an off shore account in Qatar that's nearly untraceable.

Eric Trump -- the president's son -- is on Maria Bartiromo's show bragging about one of his companies landing a $24 million Pentagon contract

this was written by a surrogate, I think... "unintelligible and deceptive" does not sound like Donny-speak

This is how Bruce Springsteen opened his concert in Los Angeles last night. 🔥🔥

Footage from @margaret_nagle on Threads.

Trump unleashes a deranged tirade, personally attacking Tucker Carlson, Marge Greene, Candace Owens, Megyn Kelly, Alex Jones and other longtime supporters.

7 months out from the midterms, here it comes - scare the fuck out of the GOP base by blaming brown & black immigrants for everything. It’s their major go-to.

A Statement by First Lady Melania Trump YouTube video by The White House

Everybody should watch this insane presser. It's like a bad scene in a Netflix thriller right before shit is about to go down.

Evil enough to have clerked for John Roberts and Kavanaugh. Screw her. She's every bit as bad as he is.

JD Vance: "Will you stand against the bureaucrats in Brussels? Will you stand for western civilization? Will you stand for freedom, truth, and the God of our fathers? Then, my friends, go to the polls and stand for Viktor Orban!"

Donald Trump is unfit to serve as the leader of the free world. That's why I have cosponsored H. Res. 939 Articles of Impeachment to remove him from office.

DRUNK with power. Also, just drunk

this is the chaplain btw. wonder why he was fired.

Jesus got deported

The Dems impeached him twice last time around. This time, they don't have the Senate OR the House. I suggest putting blame where it lies: the stupid American electorate. We need far more Dems voted in this November, not falling into the pit of helplessness.

This is an excellent summary of current circumstances

Kyle Kulinski: “A sundowning president with Alzheimer’s who’s a malignant narcissist is dragging us into WWIII, committing war crimes on a daily basis and crashing the global economy, and nobody is actually grabbing the steering wheel.”

Sick of the cycle of Republican economic terrorism?

With Senate Dems voting for the DHS funding deal and House Dems prepared to vote for it today until it was killed by House Republicans, there is no longer even the slightest debate about who owns this shutdown. Republicans are blocking funding. They own it 1,000%.

Justice Department settles lawsuit from Trump ally Michael Flynn for $1.2 million, AP source says The Justice Department has settled for roughly $1.2 million a lawsuit with Michael Flynn, the former national security adviser to President Donald Trump who pleaded guilty during the Republican’s firs...

This is an affront to the rule of law and everything decent in American society. The Justice Department lawyers should be ashamed of themselves.

As a reminder: Flynn pleaded guilty in the first Trump term; was pardoned by Trump; he sued for politically motivated prosecution; and now Trump II admin settled and agreed to pay him an undisclosed sum of taxpayer $$$

Somebody is making a fortune on the war with inside information and it is grotesquely corrupt.

Incredible scene: Travelers wait on hours-long security line at George Bush International Airport in Houston while Lee Greenwood’s “God Bless the USA” blasts through the speakers.

What can we do? Just contact our reps? What can they do, defunding votes failed. This is not sustainable until we hold elections in November.

5/ And on the Strait of Hormuz, they had NO PLAN. I can't go into more detail about how Iran gums up the Strait, but suffice it say, right now, they don't know how to get it safely back open.

Which is unforgiveable, because this part of the disaster was 100% foreseeable.

Q: A new report says that a military investigation has found that the US struck the school in Iran. As commander in chief, do you take responsibility?

TRUMP: For what?

Q: A strike on the school in Iran

TRUMP: I don't know about it

U.S. at Fault in Strike on School in Iran, Preliminary Inquiry Says Outdated targeting data may have resulted in a mistaken missile strike, according to the ongoing military investigation, which undercuts President Trump’s assertion that Iran could be to blame.
