Blundell: When Trump took over the board with all of his loser pals, he also got access to The Kennedy Center bank account. And there's about $17 million that should be in this account for operational expenses that has disappeared ... where did that $17 million go?
🇺🇸🧐Pete Hegseth, Trump’s Secretary of Defense, commented on the shortage of Tomahawk missiles in the U.S., claiming that “weapon stockpiles were depleted back under Biden due to shipments to Ukraine.”
In reality, the U.S. has never supplied Tomahawk missiles to Ukraine — Hegseth is simply lying.
They started a war without having the cards, and now they’re blaming Ukraine.
Italian undersecretary & senator Fazzolari: “It is unclear whether out of intent or ineptitude Trump is wrecking the historic relations between the US and Europe. With his inappropriate outbursts, he managed no easy feat - to make the US unpopular across the entire continent.”
The military are in close contact with each other. It doesn’t take a genius to understand the importance of vaccination. The incompetence of this administration is staggering.
A woman dies every two hours of cervical cancer in the US -- and these deaths are utterly unnecessary. HPV vaccines prevent it, and screenings catch it early when it's treatable. But we're dismantling federal support for reproductive health care programs like Title X.
The way Trump insisted that Meloni “begged” for a photo is indicative of how he’s treated all women his entire life. It’s embarrassing that he’s President.
This Italian kerfuffle just underscores how there is no overarching strategy to Trump's lying. He compulsively lies about everything, big or small, in order to further inflate his own insatiable ego. It was a breath of fresh air to see Meloni call him out on it.
A brand new bridge between Detroit and Canada is finished and ready to open. It would speed up traffic for millions of trucks, cut delays for American businesses, and help the auto industry that employs people in every state. There is just one problem.
Donald Trump won’t let it open.
Here is why.
The family that owns the old bridge stands to lose business when the new one opens. So in January, they gave one million dollars to a pro-Trump super PAC.
Weeks later they met with Trump’s Commerce Secretary.
He called Trump.
Hours after that, Trump announced he would block the new bridge. The opening was set for June 12. It got canceled the day before. The bridge sits there finished and empty.
Now here is the part that should make every taxpayer angry.
Canada paid for the entire bridge.
Every dollar. And the United States already owns half of it for free. Trump is holding up a bridge we got for nothing, to protect a donor who wrote him a check, while picking a fight with our closest ally and biggest trading partner.
This is corruption in plain sight.
A billionaire pays, and the President delivers. American workers and businesses pay the price.
Open the bridge. A government should work for the people, not for whoever writes the biggest check.

This is Trump donor and Mar-a-Lago neighbor John Cafaro who got the no-bid contract to install a water purification system for the reflecting pool. He has 2 prior convictions, one for bribing a member of Congress and another for an illegal loan that violated campaign finance laws.
Kratom is a plant from Asia that hits the same brain receptors as opioids. People take it for energy or pain. It can be addictive and it can kill.
People buy it at gas stations, with no age check and no honest label.
Markwayne Mullin owns up to a million dollars in a kratom company. Then he stood at an FDA podium and pushed rules to crush that company’s rivals. He never sold the stock.
The company was founded by a felon who stole $10 million and did prison time. His kratom shots are tied to liver damage, seizures, and death. The stuff showed up in 5,200 overdose deaths in five years. A 27 year old grad student took it for six weeks and died. His mother says a real ban would have saved him.
You cannot make this up. The same company paid a Trump connected lobbyist $600,000.
Then the payoff. The Justice Department dropped its lawsuit. The FDA scrubbed the warnings off its website. RFK Jr. called Ohio’s governor to kill a state ban. And the company wired a million dollars to a PAC tied to Kennedy.
This is the swamp they swore to drain. It is worse than ever before.

Le parole del presidente Donald Trump, chiaramente false, sono un evidente tentativo di vendicarsi della premier italiana per il suo non essersi piegata ai voleri del Tycoon. Conoscendola molto bene, posso scommettere di mangiare un pollo vivo piuttosto che credere che Giorgia Meloni supplichi qualcuno. Fa pena chi lo sostiene.
BREAKING. All hell breaks loose between Donald Trump and Giorgia Meloni. 🇮🇹 🇺🇸
Trump told La7 tv that apparently “Meloni begged to have a picture with me at the G7, I felt sorry for her”.
Meloni’s scathing response: “I am shocked by Trump’s utterly fabricated words. I am sorry he doesn’t show the same determination against the enemies of the West. And bear in mind: me and Italy never beg”.
What a time to be alive.
How is it possible that this document has been read by tens of millions of people all over the world on the internet but a senior senator on the Intel Committee hasn’t?
