Ossoff: Last September, the President of Kazakhstan calls Donald Trump and says he wants to grant tungsten mining rights to an American company. And the very next month, Eric and Don Jr. get a stake in the American company pursuing the mining deal.

Six days later, six days after Prince Eric and Prince Don get their stake, Kazakhstan announces this company will get, “The largest known undeveloped tungsten resource in the world.” A few more weeks go by, and then the U.S. government, run by their father, sets aside 1.6 billion of your tax dollars to fund and finance their mining project. In Kazakhstan.

All this while you pay more for gas, for groceries, for health care, and that's just the tip of the iceberg.

Trump brings up "the reflecting pond" and then holds up a piece of paper meant to illustrate that if the pool was "standing up" (lol) it would be the tallest building in the world (if i was 8 feet tall I'd play in the NBA)

🚨 HUGE: Democrats successfully block Trump’s SAVE Act again, killing the bill for good.

4 Republicans joined Democrats in blocking the bill.

BREAKING: O.M.G. The woman accusing Graham Platner of "intimidation" has been EXPOSED as a top Republican operative who has worked with his opponent, Susan Collins!

This is EXACTLY what they did to Al Franken…

On Thursday evening, the New York Times ran a story in which a woman, Lindsey Fifield, accused Democratic Senate candidate Graham Platner of grabbing her by the arm, twisting her arm, and of standing in a doorway menacingly blocking her exit.

The New York Times could not corroborate any of her accusations, but ran the story anyway, along with allegations from a few other women that Graham Platner could be unsettling, had dark thoughts, and generally had spooky vibes as a boyfriend.

They also spoke to several other women who said he was a lovely boyfriend and they happily supported his candidacy.

It’s now coming out that Lindsey Fifeld is a lifelong GOP operative who has worked with Platner’s Republican opponent, Susan Collins, and successfully persuaded her to vote in favor of Brett Kavanaugh, Trump’s Supreme Court justice who is an ACTUAL rapist.

In one message to a friend, Fifeld wrote “I will personally go campaign for Collins.”

Reporter Ryan Grim at Drop Site News reports that “In 2014, Fifield began work as digital director for American Action Network, a Republican Super PAC that oversees House races. The next year she became social media manager for the Heritage Foundation, where she stayed for the next seven years.”

“In 2022, she joined the Super PAC backing Nikki Haley for president, switching to the official campaign side the next year, and staying until the campaign flamed out. She now lists herself as a visiting fellow at the Independent Women’s Forum, a prominent dark money group that is best known for helping usher Brett Kavanaugh on to the Supreme Court and giving Susan Collins the talking points she needed to make her decisive speech in his favor.“

“The NYT breezed past all this, saying she was ‘a Virginia conservative who has worked for right-leaning groups and Republican campaigns.’”

“Meanwhile, the timeline Fifield gives of their relationship is confusing, because during at least some of that time she was actually dating a different person, her longterm boyfriend who became her fiancee before she called off the wedding in 2018. We all know this because she and [Zionist extremist Bethany] Mandel did a podcast episode on it that went mega-viral in Republican circles back then.”

It should be noted as well that Lindsey Fifeld has a long history of making up baseless lies about Palestinians targeted by the Trump administration like Mahmoud Khalil and Rumeysa Ozturk.

Folks, pardon our French, but this is *bullshit.*

This is an abhorrent attempt to weaponize domestic violence and the mental trauma of dealing with PTSD in order to sink a leftist candidate who staunchly opposes the Israeli genocide of Gaza.

Oh, and if that wasn't enough, the reporter on this article is Katie Gluek, an ardent Zionist whose parents are Israeli settler-occupiers in the West Bank.

Platner’s campaign responded with “Let’s be very clear: This is a lifelong G.O.P. operative who’s dedicated her career to electing Republicans.”

What else is there to say?

Graham Platner is obviously a very imperfect person, but we are not electing him to be our boyfriend. He has been very open about his struggles with PTSD; he saw four of his squadmates killed in an IED explosion in Iraq.

This smear campaign, based on uncorroborated allegations by a woman who literally said she would work for his opponent, is part of his punishment for being a progressive who isn’t afraid to stand against Israel, to stand against the health insurance behemoths, and to demand a better life for the American people.

They managed to sink Al Franken like this. They will NOT succeed again!

One of the most horrifying scenes in human history has been revealed.

When Israel forced thousands in Gaza to collect flour mixed with sand due to severe famine.

A moment the world must never forget.

[David Axelrod @davidaxelrod]

This is so telling.
The last DNI was just down in Atlanta, seizing 2020 election records to amplify @POTUS's conspiracy theories.
Now he brings in the ultimate loyalist, with NO Intel experience, to replace her?
This is an ominous signal for November.

This is so insanely corrupt, I can’t even believe it.

More than half the donors to Trump’s $400 million White House ballroom just won over $50 billion in new federal contracts in six months.

And here’s the part that should make your blood boil.

Sixteen of these 27 donors were facing federal enforcement actions, antitrust reviews, labor cases, securities charges. Many of those cases have been quietly dropped or scaled back since Trump took office. You write a check, your legal problems disappear. That’s not a coincidence.

The White House won’t even release the full donor list. They’re hiding it on purpose, because daylight is the one thing pay-to-play can’t survive. A federal judge already ruled ballroom construction has to stop until Congress authorizes it.

Government is supposed to serve the people, not auction itself off to the highest bidder. When access goes to whoever pays the most, working families always end up paying the price.

We either end the corruption, or the corruption will end us.

Trump gave him a full pardon.

Yesterday, the IDF seized 4 students from their homes in the West Bank, including 20-year-old American, Sama Safi.

The Israeli govt didn’t tell her family or the U.S. Embassy where or why she was being taken & is holding her without charges.

America must secure her release NOW.
