Imagine being a US service member - or a member of a military family - in harmβs way right now thanks to Trump, and watching him refuse to answer a reporter's question about Russia helping Iran kill Americans because they dared to ask during a college sports roundtable on the sixth day of the war.
Yeah, Trump HATED that question from Doocy because the whole point of the presser was changing the subject from all the bad news to something anodyne.
Props to Doocy for both questions, the second being "What is motivating you to hold this discussion (on college football) now?"
Hang in there. There will be ups and downs but take solace in the knowledge that you will prevail.
Trump gets mad when asked Russia and Iran working together to kill US troops because he wants to talk about college sports instead
DOOCY: It sounds like the Russians are helping Iran target and attack Americans--
TRUMP: That's an easy problem compared to what we're doing here. What a stupid question that is to be asking at this time. We're talking about something else.
Todayβs weak jobs report raises new questions about Bidenβs economic policies
So let me get this straight ...
1. US bombs Iran
2. Oil price goes up a bit, benefitting Russia's petrostate
3. Russia gives Iran targeting info
4. Oil price shoots WAY up
5. US unsanctions Russian oil
So in the same day we got negative data points/price action on:
-jobs
-oil
-private credit
-AI capex intentions
I am not trying to do the whole "everything's a distraction" thing, but the DOJ holding onto specific allegations about Trump assaulting a minor and releasing them after a war against Iran has taken center stage is, uh... noteworthy timing.
This confirms what we already knew, but what is not talked about enough.
russia, a terrorist state, is directly targeting Europe with acts intended to kill.
It is at war with us.
This will only intensify, maybe dramatically, until Moscow is completely defeated in Ukraine.

What? Trump never lies. /sarc off/
Donald Trump is insisting that the United States is secretly evacuating citizens stranded in the Middle Eastβbut multiple reports indicate they have been left on their own. trib.al/IVHRVem
Turns out lawlessness is not a winning strategy. See you at Nuremberg 2.0
FACT: Since 1989, the U.S. economy has added about 51 million jobs. Roughly 50 million of those new jobs were under Democratic presidents.

The American political class is utterly delusional, adrift in a dream of normality, unable to process the actual reality of events on the ground, where the US just launched a completely unprovoked war against a massive country, murdered its leadership, and demanded its conversion to a vassal state.
In just six days weβve gone from βIranians take over your countryβ to βweβre open to talking with the new leadership of the regimeβ to βI want to pick the new leaderβ to now βunconditional surrenderβ.
A βconcept of a planβ, indeed.

Trump: "There will be no deal with Iran except UNCONDITIONAL SURRENDER! After that, and the selection of a GREAT & ACCEPTABLE Leader(s), we, and many of our wonderful and very brave allies and partners, will work tirelessly to bring Iran back from the brink of destruction, making it economically bigger, better, and stronger than ever before. IRAN WILL HAVE A GREAT FUTURE. 'MAKE IRAN GREAT AGAIN (MIGA!).' Thank you for your attention to this matter! President DONALD J. TRUMP"

the GOAT for real.
I can almost guarantee that pre-emptive pardons are issued by Trump with every cabinet appointment. And given the Supreme Court decision on presidential immunity, one could argue that cabinet members are shielded for implementing the president's official acts.
Prior to being asked any questions regarding the case, the agents asked whether they could audio record the interview. advised she was not comfortable being recorded at that time. requested agents explain to her the goal and parameters of the fourth interview. She indicated she was aware that because she was victimized several years prior, the statutes of limitation of any viable federal violation may have run. She asked agents, "what's the point?" The agents explained that all victims of crime should have the opportunity to tell their story; they wanted to provide her with that opportunity should she choose to accept. The agents also explained why they wished to keep the fourth interview focused on abuse endured at the hands of individuals associated with JEFFREY EPSTEIN. previously mentioned she had sexual contact with (current U.S. President) DONALD TRUMP while she was a minor. She previously explained the contact was facilitated through her association with EPSTEIN. / was asked whether she felt
