The Trump administration has some serious explaining to do, because there’s a ton of money missing and zero explanation for where it went.
The US has collected an estimated $13 billion in Venezuelan oil revenue, and at least $10 billion of it is unaccounted for.
And the independent audits that it promised Congress? Congress still doesn’t have them.
Whatever you think American foreign policy towards Venezuela should be, Congress and the public should be able to follow the money.
BREAKINGNEWS: France President Emmanuel Macron says Vladimir Putin has refused the recent ceasefire announced by Trump. Saying Russia has continued to bomb Ukraine infrastructure just minutes later. That Europe will continue to stand with Ukriane. 🚨
It’s been reported that the US has told Zelenskyy to stop striking Russia’s oil refineries, or the US will shut down its intelligence sharing with Ukraine.
There you have it folks. The US is now formally aligned with Russia.
Whatever Putin has on Trump must be unimaginable.
A message to all sane Republicans: He pardoned 1,600 violent criminals. You said nothing. He bulldozed the East Wing. You said nothing. He interfered with the release of the Epstein files. You said nothing. He took over the Kennedy Center and renamed it after himself. You said nothing. He accepted a $400 million airplane as a personal gift. You said nothing. He threatened Canada, Cuba, Denmark, Greenland, Venezuela, Colombia, and Brazil. You said nothing. He tariffed just about everyone but Russia, causing inflation and instability worldwide. You said nothing. He attacked a nation during mediated negotiations. You said nothing. His ill-conceived war killed 175 children on day one. You said nothing. He alienated and insulted our allies. You said nothing. His ICE Army terrorized and murdered U.S. citizens. You said nothing. He committed murder on the high seas. You said nothing. He co-opted the Justice Department and directed it to prosecute his political enemies. You said nothing. It's time to start talking!!!
It's long overdue!!!!
@charise_lee@Brian41675744@JoJoFromJerz That’s your 1st Amendment rights being trampled by a rogue mob boss who cheated his way into the White House, only to destroy it as he is destroying our Constitution. I’m glad you brought this into the open, you shouldn’t be alone fighting this!
NO SURPRISE…THE TRUMP REGIME IS TRYING TO SHUT DOWN SPEECH THEY DO NOT LIKE. I STAND WITH @JoJoFromJerz
A single mother in New Jersey says a lawyer for President Donald Trump and First Lady Melania Trump warned, in a message relayed to her by another attorney, that she would lose her home, be bankrupted and end up on the street with her kids.
Joanne Carducci, known online as JoJo From Jerz and followed by more than a million people, told the Medias Touch podcast of an ordeal that has lasted months.
She says it began with a letter, several pages long, from the Trumps' personal attorney in Florida, "the same attorney that was handling the IRS case and the ABC case," she told host Ken Harbaugh. It demanded that she retract things she had said online, including a claim that Trump incited a de*dly insurrection against the U.S. Capitol. It also called for a full apology, an admission that she had knowingly lied, and a payment that had not yet been named. It set a deadline of a few days and warned of punitive damages.
Carducci says a prominent attorney first offered to help her for free, then changed course after speaking with the Florida lawyer. His advice, she says, was to meet every demand because the Trumps have "inexhaustible resources." She says she is paraphrasing her attorney's account of his call with the Florida lawyer, but that his exact words to her were: "They're going to take your house. It's the only asset you have. They're going to bankrupt you and you're going to end up on the street with your kids."
She says one million dollars was demanded at one point. Carducci says she once earned $16 an hour as a paraprofessional and rebuilt her life with no credit after a brutal divorce. She says she never considered giving in, and that her children still do not know.
Former New Jersey Attorney General Matt Platkin offered to help with part of her case for free, she says. She decided to go public after hearing Melania Trump on the news congratulating herself for empowering women.
"I'm still terrified, but I'm done being quiet about it."
@DavidAbraham789@TheStripesGirl I think billionaire campaign financiers like Peter Theil and tRump appointed Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent have graciously accepted the Congressional approval of their marriages.
@marti98252@TheStripesGirl Could we invoke "sharia law" tactics such as public execution??? Oh wait, tRump and kegsbreath have already started selling ringside seats.

@OccupyDemocrats Greed will be our nation’s downfall. Trump and his tech billionaire partners in crime will squeeze every penny from us, cash out when the markets are about to crash, and leave us holding the bag. He does not give a shit about Americans!😰j fs g
