The Trump family has financial ties to a Russian oligarch close to Putin. That should alarm every single American. Why does this family keep cutting deals with foreign adversaries? Oversight Democrats are investigating, and we will get the truth.
“The secretive, close relationship between the son of a sitting U.S. President and a member of Russian dictator Vladimir Putin’s inner circle raises serious national security and public corruption concerns,” Rep. Robert Garcia wrote.

The US already got a do over. A mulligan. A second chance. Much of the world, especially US allies, were ready to write off Trump’s first term as a fluke. The American people’s choice to put him back in power—as a convicted felon, after an openly bigoted, anti-democracy campaign—showed it was not.
This is the part many Americans -- including the Bezosites at the Washington Post -- don't understand. Canadians don't see this just as a Trump thing. It's that America elected him twice, and the second time with an even bigger mandate. The problem we're addressing is America, not Trump.

Aaron Rupar is having an impact.
For the second straight day, the White House's taxpayer-funded incitement account is attacking me and oddly mentioning I'm in my 40s (which I know makes me way too old for the president) When they do this it results in a flood of harassing and threatening messages, which of course is the point

It's crazy to me that this is not leading the New York Times, NBC News, CNN, etc. If you're that numb, maybe think about a field other than journalism.
Is it a big deal that the U.S. president is telling insane lies that he personally rushed to the site of 9/11 and heroically acted like a first responder himself? Sorta seems like it should be! Maybe?

BREAKING: After the Washington Post fired me last year for speaking the truth in the wake of the Charlie Kirk killing, I fought back. And I'm happy to announce: I won my case against the Washington Post. They have been ordered to reinstate me immediately. www.nytimes.com/2026/08/24/b...

It's just insane that the president tells absurd, easily disproven lies on a daily basis, and at this point we all just expect it.
Trump: "At one year, you should have 5 separate visits for vaccines rather than getting them all in the same day. I've seen proof of where they have a vaccination thing that looks like the size of a bottle of soda and pour it into a little child's body."

Capital One just told a court they shut down hundreds of tRump Organization accounts because an anti-money laundering review found suspicious transaction patterns. Not “woke politics.” Actual banking red flags. finance.yahoo.com/markets/curr...

Richard Gere: “Trump uses the same words that Hitler did. Calls them vermin. They’re not vermin. These are human beings. I’ve met them. He’s never met a refugee or a migrant. These are human beings like us who are usually running from a fire of one kind or another” @marcofoster.bsky.social

Wonder if his recent FIFA gaff played a small role. He totally tipped his hand. 1 - The ref cheated & was doxxed. That ref is a pretty shady character. 2 - He coerced FIFA into reversing the call. 3 - We lost anyway & the Belgian players mocked him. Worse than when Stormy mocked his mushroom.

Vaccines work! 🧪💉
Tetanus is returning. In the 1930s, Tetanus was widespread in the US. The development & deployment of vaccines reduced annual cases from ~ 600 in the 1940s to 17 in 2020. Mortality dropped 99%. There is no cure for tetanus. We have forgotten how life was before vaccines. 🧪 archive.today/c6QVx
