One of the biggest stories this weekend deserved a lot more attention. On Friday, @POTUS announced that he had reached an agreement with Putin for Russia to begin supplying diesel to the U.S. and global markets. The agreement includes 300,000 tons immediately, another 500,000 tons in November, 1 million tons after that, and potentially another 3 million tons.
But what caught my attention was what the United States agreed to do to make this happen. The @USTreasury issued a temporary authorization allowing transactions involving Russian diesel through April 7, 2027. This is a major departure from years of U.S. efforts to restrict Russian energy revenue and weaken Moscow's ability to finance its war in Ukraine.
I absolutely support efforts to lower fuel prices. Diesel is around $6.30 a gallon nationally, and those costs affect everything from trucking and agriculture to the price of groceries. Americans need relief, and the administration should be looking for ways to provide it. But enabling Russia while it continues its war against Ukraine is a serious concern, especially when we don't even know whether this agreement will meaningfully lower prices. Energy analysts are already questioning whether Russia can deliver the promised quantities and how much those shipments would actually affect the market.
And now a bipartisan effort in Congress is getting involved. Today, seven senators, including four Republicans and three Democrats, challenged the decision. Republican Senators Susan Collins, Lisa Murkowski, Thom Tillis, and John Curtis joined Democratic Senators Jeanne Shaheen, Richard Blumenthal, and Ron Wyden in raising concerns that the administration's decision conflicts with the 2022 law banning Russian energy imports.
Remember, the purpose of restricting Russian energy revenue was to make it harder for Putin to finance his war. And let's not forget who helped him sustain that war: Iran. At some point, we need to stop putting band-aids on bullet holes and deal with what is causing the damage in the first place.
When will the mainstream media realize there is nothing “right-wing” or “far-right” about exposing fraud?
The media is an enemy to the legal law abiding taxpaying citizen. I am not, that’s why they hate me.
I’ve done more journalism with my pinky than their entire organization
California:
Guys. I haven’t been wrong yet.
I was right about prop 47 and 57. I told you it would lead to high crime.
I was right about George Gascon as a DA.
I was right about ballot measure fraud.
I knew the fix would be in for the LA mayors race and that the homeless were being exploited to sway the election.
And I was right about Prop 50. I told you not to give your power away to Sacramento. And the reason?
Prop 40.
The so called billionaires tax. It is not a billionaire’s tax at all. You want to know why? Because Sacramento knows that billionaires and millionaires are leaving this dumpster fire of a state.
So as they leave, they will expand the tax to the middle lass and poor, and there will be nothing you can do about it because… (drumroll)… you voted for prop 50. You let them scare you into giving them power over you. They can do whatever they want now and you have no say so.
Do not vote of this proposition. Prop 40 will place even more taxes on the backs of the working class. It is inevitable.
Don’t fall for it.
Please vote YES on 39 for voter ID. Our elections system is corrupt and we actually have a chance to fix it.
We have to vote for Hilton. It’s no longer about party lines. We cannot keep voting for the same kinds of candidates and expect something different.
Becerra was exposed during that debate. Hilton has ideas that sound like they can help reduce some of the damage. But it has to start somewhere. And that starts with him and prop 39.
Weird. @mikehtrujillo, a Karen Bass surrogate, has been attacking Nithya Raman, and he loves to clout-draft off me, but for some reason...he doesn't wanna retweet this chart showing Nithya's ties to the corrupt homeless industrial complex, including her own NPO. I wonder why? Oh, that's right...because Karen Bass is in on it, too.
You see...I was the only non-corrupt candidate who never participated in the homeless industrial complex, other than trying to dodge drug zombies terrorizing our families. Now that it's just Dumb and Dumber left in the race, you have to choose between two sides of the same coin. Good luck, LA!
The fact that both mayoral candidates are balls deep in the homeless industrial complex, they both work in city government, and the city's own homeless count was inexplicably delayed until immediately after I was pushed out of the race...should be grounds for a recall of either candidate, regardless of who wins.
🚨 END OF WATCH: #PHILADELPHIA POLICE OFFICER SHANE SIEBER, OCTOBER 10th, 2026…
Another officer murdered while wearing the badge and serving the public. A family’s world shattered. A law enforcement family left grieving. All because some piece of shit decided a human life meant nothing…
Part 2: Under Operation Desert Shield, the U.S. Marshals Service, East PACT, California State Parole, and the Riverside County Sheriff’s Department (Palm Desert Station) conducted a joint sex offender compliance operation in Riverside County.
Drug dealers and human traffickers exploit homeless people for financial gain by keeping them addicted and dependent. They willingly give their money and bodies to their exploiters. Anyone opposing law enforcement’s efforts targeting criminals is morally bankrupt and enables this vicious cycle.
🚨#PHILADELPHIA, PA.— FALLEN OFFICER IDENTIFIED
Philadelphia Police Officer Shane Sieber, a 10-year veteran, was killed in the line of duty after being shot while responding to a call in West Philadelphia.
Officer Sieber leaves behind his wife and two young children, ages 7 and 3.
A second officer, a father of five, was shot 12 times. He remains in stable condition but is not out of danger, according to the police commissioner.
Please keep both officers, their families, and the entire Philadelphia Police Department in your thoughts .
Public executions are not only justified, they are recommended by God.
If that makes you uncomfortable, it should. That is the point.
This is what God said about public executions:
“And all Israel shall hear and fear and never again do any such wickedness as this among you.”
Following yesterday's officer involved shooting in New York, numerous lies about the incident and ICE operations in the city have been parroted by sanctuary politicians.
ICE will never stop protecting New Yorkers by arresting and removing illegal aliens.
Here are the facts:
Reminder to Scott Wiener: Your silly state laws have no force or effect on federal agents. We already struck down your laws trying to regulate federal officers (remember how you lost in the Ninth Circuit trying to unmask and ID our agents).
Intimidating federal agents and interfering with their operations is a federal felony. We will arrest and charge anyone who gets in the way of their enforcement of immigration laws passed by Congress. Govern accordingly.

🚨 WOW! SecWar Pete Hegseth just announced the firing squad execution of Fort Hood Islamist terrorist Nidal Hasan will be **PUBLIC**
At the SAME time and place where Hasan carried out the attack.
"We'll make sure that people are able to watch it. That it's public. Because people need to understand that there's serious consequences for these types of things!"
"He's gonna get a firing squad of soldiers. As it should be."
@JackPosobiec: Did he make any final requests?
HEGSETH: "Don't care. We'll see him on December 3rd." 🥶
Hasan m*rdered 13 people at Fort Hood in 2009 while yelling "Allahu Akbar" and wounded more than 30 others
He was sentenced to death in 2013 and then sat on death row for over a DECADE. The Acting Sec. of the Army made it official
The victims' families finally get JUSTICE 🙏🏻
Our SecWar is stone COLD when it comes to traitors like this who take American lives.
@RealAmVoice
The Feds are cleaning up California against its will. Can you imagine how much could get done with just ONE Republican in office who isn’t actively hostile to the federal government like Gavin is? It would be a cascade of federal resources to help us. Gotta have Hilton in office.
OPERATION SAVE SKID ROW ARRESTS: This morning we executed 28 arrest warrants and 44 search warrants for federal drug trafficking offenses involving fentanyl, PCP, and other narcotics in and around Skid Row.
Drug dealers prey on the homeless, keeping them addicted to horrific drugs and collecting their government assistance money in exchange. It’s all about making money. That ends today.
This was a massive joint operation between the @HSTaskForce and LAPD. Over 300 law enforcement officers participated. More details at our 1 p.m. PSD press conference.
Up to 100,000 immigrant children are lost in California. Rob Bonta has never launched a single investigation to find them. Not one.
I have made a promise to the Latino community and every California community. When I'm Attorney General, I am going to find those children.
Vote Michael Gates for Attorney General. #Gates4AG
Look at the manipulative language on the voter ID ballot initiative.
Keep in mind, 83% of Americans say they want voter ID. It is entirely uncontroversial. They are lying, claiming it will cost HUNDREDS OF MILLIONS for people to write 4 digits of their DL# on their ballot? LMAO
"PROHIBITS CITIZENS FROM VOTING" is the top line. Just a complete inversion of reality. California is like some Orwellian experiment. How is this real?
