It looks like Putin told Trump that Ukraine was causing high gas prices, a lie that is convenient for Trump. Obviously it’s Trump’s war in Iran that is the issue. But Trump can’t accept that.
So now Trump wants to give Putin a lot of money for Russian diesel, which won’t do anything to markets and won’t even help him in the midterms, though I bet Putin told him it would.
But since Russia and Iran are allies, the shift in US policy and any US taxpayer money that Trump gives Putin will help both the Russian war on Ukraine as well as the regime in Iran. Trump got his pocket picked as usual but the money is ours and the deeper price is the visible shift of US policy to support Russia’s war of aggression.
In other words, Trump makes the world more dangerous by extending two wars and gets nothing in return, not even for himself (unless there was a side deal, which can’t be ruled out).
Mike Rogers is a corporate sellout who moves back to Michigan every few years to run for office to take another swing at the revolving door of corporate politics.
Of course I am. But that’s not what’s causing skyrocketing gas (fyi, I’m really starting to understand why you dodge debates).
So your turn: are you in favor of continuing this war in Iran?
How about the tariff war with Canada?
"You do my dad's legacy, the legacy of all these victims, no honor by using this tragedy to spread hate."
The son of a 9/11 victim who was killed in the attacks called out hate during the Manhattan ceremony commemorating the 25th anniversary of the Sept. 11, 2001 attacks.
Weaponizing this victim’s death is far more offensive than Mamdani and AOC having a friendly moment at a somber event, something literally every single person in the world has done
25 years ago, terrorists killed nearly 3,000 people, including 2,753 New Yorkers.
As we remember that terrible day, let us also remember the first responders, office workers and strangers who ran toward danger to help each other. Let us remember the extraordinary compassion, resilience and bravery that carried our city through its darkest
day.
Today, New York remembers. We will Never Forget.
You voted to deny healthcare for 9/11 first responders. Twice.
You justified it to a first responder who had had part of his foot amputated it by calling it a “New York problem.”
You should be ashamed of yourself.
The people building AI earnestly believe that it could kill us all by the end of the decade. This is not a marketing stunt. If anything, many executives and senior researchers will couch their phrasing in the press to sound sensible - but I hear the same people express fear privately. No other human activity poses this level of danger.
