Just as Putin faces internal challenges because of the costs of the Ukraine war Trump steps in to save him by easing oil sanctions at the same time as Putin helps Iran target allied bases in the region. Trump is a traitor to everything the west has stood for.

When they won’t let you near the war.

Trump Removes Sanctions on Russia to Help Oil Flow Amid Iran Conflict

1. Donald Trump starts a war with Iran, deeply unpopular with the American people, that causes oil prices to spike.

2. Trump allows Russia to sell its oil at those inflated prices, giving Russia far more money for its war with Ukraine.

3. Trump is Russia First.

Senate Majority Leader Thune plans to bring the SAVE America Act up for a vote next week. The measure is expected to fail, but it’s still important to speak up. Please call, message, and reach out to your senators and urge them to vote no.

Governor Newsom announces more than $23 million to increase access to farm-fresh food for CalFresh, WIC, and Senior Farmers’ Market Nutrition Program recipients | Governor of California

California leads the nation in bringing fresh, healthy, farm-grown fruits and vegetables to tables across the state.

That's why today, through our Department of Food & Agriculture, we're investing another $23M to support farmers, strengthen local markets, and connect families with fresh produce.

ALT TXT: Truth Social post from Donald Trump on March 12, 2026: “The United States is the largest Oil Producer in the World, by far, so when oil prices go up, we make a lot of money. BUT, of far greater interest and importance to me, as President, is stoping an evil Empire, Iran, from having Nuclear Weapons, and destroying the Middle East and, indeed, the World. I won't ever let that happen! Thank you for your attention to this matter. President DONALD J. TRUMP”

Who's the "WE" making "a lot of money" from skyrocketing gas prices, Trump?

It's definitely not the Americans struggling to pay an extra $1.5 billion at the pump this week.

GOP plans marathon debate, but SAVE America Act unlikely to cross the finish line “I can't guarantee an outcome on this legislation,” Thune said.

Republican leadership is setting the stage for some high dudgeon political theater next week, planning a multi-day, overnight debate on the SAVE America Act that will likely culminate in the protagonist proposal’s death on the Senate floor. www.democracydocket.com/news-alerts/...

So Republicans are going to filibuster their own doomed bill? They are smart like that.

Trump is off GOLFING.

As BSC and unfit as Trump is, he knows he has committed crimes for which any other person would be serving time.

Well at least BLUE is flipping strong America we just might get what we need before Nov. The FELON IS PISSED WHILE WE KEEP FIGHTING AND THAT'S WHAT WE THE PEOPLE MUST DO AND DEAL WITH CONGRESS DEMS ON A HARD LINE AS WELL. MAKE THEM HEAR AND SEE WHAT WE WANT NOT CPAC WANTS THEY HAVE NOT DID ENOUGH.

And they face state charges in Florida so even if trump pardons them on the federal charges he can't pardon the state charges. DeSantis can though, so I'm only cautiously optimistic that they'll serve time.

The SECOND most infuriating thing about this war on Iran, is that if you disagree with it, MAGA accuses you of supporting terrorism.

The first is the loss of life.

I can dislike the Iranian regime without thinking it's our job to kill them all. MAGA is apparently too stupid to grasp this concept.

Trump is disqualified from running for president in 2028. The Constitution says so. If the Democratic Party doesn’t publicly denounce any attempt by Trump to run AND pass state laws disqualifying him from state ballots then there is nobody else to blame than our incompetent DNC leadership.

Iran has zero reason to hold back, Trump and MAGA have opened Pandora’s box.

This twxt Trump seems to be suggesting ‘it wasn’t me that said let’s strike Iran’. What a scumbag.

Hey, why does the FBI need brutalist combat skills?

How much real estate are witkoff and Kushner selling the Russians during their meetings in Florida?

Morgan J. Freeman (@mjfree) Donald Trump spent years branding himself the “Peace President.” The leader who supposedly ended wars and started none. Now the same president has ordered military strikes on Iran, igniting a dangero...

THE “PEACE PRESIDENT” JUST LIT THE MATCH

Trump spent years bragging “No new wars.” Claimed he ended 6, 7 even 8 wars??

Well... Now he’s bombing Iran and:
- Oil markets are exploding.
- The Middle East is on the brink.
- And the risk of a wider war is real.

Some “Peace President."

Republicans Know Trump Will Destroy Democracy — And Don't Care | Tim Miller YouTube video by Democracy Docket

NEW EPISODE: I sit down with Tim Miller of The Bulwark. We discussed defending democracy against Trump's authoritarian project. Tim pulls no punches on what he's witnessed from inside the Republican Party — and why so many elites are choosing to stay silent www.youtube.com/watch?v=RHcA...

Any Democrat that helps to pass the SAVE act needs to be removed from office.

This legislation scares the shit out of me.
