When the President has to explain that it’s actually our proxy war in Eastern Europe, not our regime change war in the Middle East, that’s driving up the cost of living for hardworking Americans, it should be evident to everyone that our foreign policy does not serve the American people.
Jared Kushner’s investment firm raised nearly $4 billion from the Saudis, Qataris, and Emiratis.
Now, CNN reports his firm is the largest shareholder in an Israeli company with more than $456 million invested in nine companies that supply Israel’s military, including its largest arms manufacturer.
At the same time, Kushner is serving as Trump’s Middle East and Gaza negotiator.
This corruption must be investigated.
Elon Musk spent $290M to elect Trump. Now he wants to spend up to $200M to buy a Senate seat in Texas and keep Republicans in control of Congress.

Welcome to the UK. A fully developed country where hard working people with full time jobs are still struggling to survive.
We’re taxed on just about everything, income tax, council tax, VAT, National Insurance, fuel duty, inheritance tax, road tax, TV licence and more.
Meanwhile, bills keep going up, rent has skyrocketed, and homes that used to cost around £800 a month can now easily be £1,500 or more.
Even popping to the supermarket for a few essentials can somehow cost £50–£100. Two bags of groceries and your bank account is wondering what just happened.
People aren’t struggling because they buy the occasional coffee or have Netflix.
People are struggling because almost everything has become ridiculously expensive while wages haven’t kept up.
Prices in the UK just feel completely made up now.
How does a weekend in England cost £700 when you can fly abroad for less?
A return train to London is £160.
The same house that rented for £600 is now £1,200.
A full tank of fuel is over £100.
Car insurance goes up 50% despite the same car, no claims and nothing changing.
£100 in the supermarket somehow gets you two bags of shopping.
And we're all just expected to accept this as normal?
How did we get to the point where being ripped off became part of everyday life?
