Trump Press Sec Goes Full Cult as Damning War Leaks Humiliate Him Anew As Karoline Leavitt spins wildly amid new revelations about Trump’s war blunders, a national security expert explains why this whole fiasco is structurally so hard to exit from—and what to expect next...

Perfect: CNN reports that Trump officials privately say his outbursts about Iran are hurting chances for a deal.

I wouldn't be surprised if investigators and journalists find some really shady shit on Netanyahu in the wreckage of the Orban government. Remember that Orban and Netanyahu have worked together since the early 2000s, possibly even 1990s.

This Isn't Trading. It's Theft from Your Retirement. Someone keeps making perfectly-timed bets right before the President speaks. The victims are your pension, your 401(k), and the country I took an oath to defend.

Fifteen minutes before the President announced he was pausing strikes on Iran, somebody moved $500 million in oil futures. Somebody knew. Somebody told them. Or somebody is them.

According the AG Blanche, “The SPLC is manufacturing racism to justify its existence.” This is some whacked out far-right fantasy. Hard to imagine this theory will hold up in court, but the lives of paid informants who infiltrated hate groups will be at risk.

Draft-Dodging Trump, 79, Brags About How He Would Have Won Vietnam War in Unhinged Rant Donald Trump avoided the military draft five times.

The five-time draft-dodger claimed he would have led the U.S. to victory in the Vietnam War within weeks.

Virginia Giuffre’s 2015 sworn affidavit: Epstein told her he had “slept with over 1,000 of Brunel’s girls.” A 2007 court complaint alleged Epstein, Maxwell, Brunel and others ran racketeering to lure girls under 17 through MC2 “to engage in sexual play for money.”

In 2005 Epstein wired Brunel at least $1M to launch MC2 Model Management. The name reads as an internal Epstein reference: E=mc². Staff testified they were paid to obtain US visas for young girls housed in Epstein’s condos at 301 East 66th Street.

Putin must be so proud of himself for the impact he has had on the U.S.

Israel defending its destruction of entire villages including schools, hospitals and obviously people’s houses etc as ‘removing terrorist infrastructure’. Who buys this shit any more?

Well, at least the BBC is covering this.

A hundred years ago, the U.S. had a nationwide network of short-line railroads that connected most urban and rural communities. By the 1940s, most of it had been dismantled ... by the barons of the auto and oil industries. 😑

Tesla saved $400 million on its federal taxes by shifting billions of its U.S. profits to countries with lower tax rates.

Yes: While you paid your taxes in full, giant corporations maneuvered to pay as little as possible — and it’s all perfectly legal for them.

The system is rigged.
