One of the most bizarre features of Trump's drunk-drive diplomacy is that its main targets have tended to be America's *best* NATO allies in Europe: Poland, Denmark, the UK, Estonia - the countries that spend the most on their military, were part of the coalition of the willing that went to Iraq, sent their troops on the most dangerous missions in Afghanistan, etc.
Meanwhile, some of the countries that still free-ride the most are completely left out of his crosshairs. And their leaders include both loyal Trump-boosters such as Italy's Meloni, and outspoken Trump-critics such as Spain's Pedro Sanchez.
The only discernible pattern seems to be: the more your country has stood by the US on the last 20 years, the worse you'll be treated by Trump.
Meet Paul Singer.
Singer acquired Citgo, the US-based subsidiary of Venezuela’s state-run oil company, in November 2025.
Citgo owns major refineries in Louisiana, Texas and Illinois — plus thousands of gas stations.
Singer donated at least $5 million to Trump, and $37 million to Republicans in Congress in 2024.
Just in case you still thought this was still about drugs.

I’ve read all the posts, watched all the speeches, interviews and press conferences for years, and I don’t recall a single time when Trump has blamed Russia’s invasion of Ukraine on Putin.
New analysis from CBO of the "Big Beautiful Bill" shows the bottom 20% get poorer, not much change for most of America, & the top 10% get meaningfully richer - and that's before tariffs
It was the largest transfer of wealth from the poor to the rich in a single law in history
There’s a real temptation here to make a joke, or to ask which drugs these are that pharma companies are now paying patients to take, because let’s all get in on it!
But honestly, all I can feel is sad that someone this stupid could be our president.
Again.
*US SETS 39% TARIFF ON SWITZERLAND
*US SETS 30% TARIFF ON SOUTH AFRICA
*US SETS 20% TARIFF ON VIETNAM
*US SETS 20% TARIFF ON TAIWAN
*US SETS 15% TARIFF ON TURKEY
No rhyme or reason whatsoever.
Just complete nonsense.
Economically illiterate child.
Freddie Solum loved to explore little libraries. Yet he was disappointed when they contained no kid’s books. Now a tribute stands in front of the 5-yr-old's home. A little library just for kids honoring a child deeply missed by his family #land10kstories

Without the money, schools say they won't be able to provide free or affordable after-school care for low-income kids while their parents work. https://t.co/31rVYdKkRc
Obama’s Iran nuclear deal was working until Trump pulled out of it. His own staff warned him not to because the alternative was war. Well, now we’re at war with Iran because Trump is weak, stupid and hated Obama more than he cared about preventing Iran from getting a nuke.
