Trump is suspending exercises with South Korea because he says he has a “really good relationship” with Kim Jong-un.
Meanwhile, North Korea has nuclear weapons, threatens our allies, supplies Russia’s war against Ukraine, and has sent troops to fight alongside Putin.
This is how American alliances get destroyed — and how you convince countries like South Korea and Japan that they may need nuclear weapons of their own.
The damage from this could last generations.
Breaking: Trump announces the US will now be siding with North Korea and Kim Jong Un instead of the democratic South Korea.
“Based on my very good relationship with Kim Jong Un, of North Korea, I am not happy with the fact that the United States has, long ago, agreed to participate in Joint Military Exercises with South Korea.”
Tuberville: "If we don't straighten out this country's voting and immigration system, we're not gonna make it. It's gonna be over. I'm gonna go back to Alabama and hey, we might build a 30-foot wall around our state."
Trump: "The thing they should look at is blue states and blue cities. Cities run by Democrats. Because that's really the threat to the country. Because they're a disaster."
JD Vance: “We don't want the next administration, God forbid you're gonna have President El-Sayed in three years. We don't want him to undo all the incredible work we've been doing”
And another thing....
Every time Trump asks a reporter "who are you with?" Reporters need to answer "the United States of America. Who are you with, sir?"
Why is it not front page news on every major media outlet that the United States commander in chief had hundreds of his bank accounts frozen for money laundering??????
MS NOW: One of your criticisms of Fauci is that he said one thing publicly, where he sort of downplayed the virus, and one thing privately, where he acknowledge its seriousness. President Trump did the exact the same thing. Does Trump deserve the same level of scrutiny?
RAND PAUL: *immediately changes topic*
🚨PATHETIC: Holdout Thom Tillis folds like a cheap accordion for Donald Trump and announces he’ll vote to confirm Todd Blanche as Attorney General.
His reason?
“What about Obama? What about Biden?… Nobody is clean here.”
Translation: Instead of explaining why Blanche deserves the job, Tillis excuses it by saying everyone else is just as bad.
What a f*cking coward.
The Trump Organization had roughly 385 accounts closed by Capital One after the bank’s anti-money-laundering team spent months reviewing them.
Imagine the reaction if this involved any other prominent political family.
If any other president’s businesses had hundreds of bank accounts terminated after an anti-money-laundering review by one of the nation’s largest banks, it would dominate the news cycle.
Instead, it surfaced in a federal court filing on a Friday afternoon and is being largely forgotten by Monday.
And it wasn’t just one bank.
There is a separate lawsuit against JPMorgan Chase involving accounts it also closed during roughly the same period. Trump says the banks engaged in politically motivated debanking. The banks say they acted for legitimate business and compliance reasons. The courts will decide those cases.
What is not in dispute is that while these lawsuits are pending, Trump is using the power of the presidency to push regulators toward policies that would make it harder for banks to take similar actions in the future. When a president’s private business disputes and public authority begin to overlap, every American should pay attention.
We’ve seen this pattern before. In 2019, during his first term, Trump sued Capital One and Deutsche Bank to block them from complying with congressional subpoenas seeking his financial records.
The public deserves to know why hundreds of Trump-linked accounts were closed, why so much of the record remains under seal, and whether a sitting president’s personal financial interests are influencing the exercise of public power.
This is not the standard of accountability we should expect from someone entrusted with the presidency.
