Four brothers went to war against Hitler. Three were killed. The fourth survived, and his grandson, Volodymyr Zelenskyy, is the president of Ukraine. Zelensky comes from a family that fought tyrants: Trump negotiates with them while demanding concessions from their victims.

“I’m sure you’re aware of our connections with the Trump Administration,” the North Carolina Republican Party's comms director wrote in an email response to us. “I would strongly suggest dropping this story.” We didn't. Read the story that he wanted dropped (published Oct. 2025):

This "turn to Putin" is nothing new if you followed the Mueller Report. Zelensky proved that yesterday when he took down Russian bot farms that where spreading propaganda & disinformation in the lead up to 2016 through current times. Want to know the why? Publish Vol. #2 of Jack Smith's report.

Notice Trump always seems to give Putin something he wants...but Trump never seems to get anything tangible back, operative word being tangible. I think the tangible for Trump is spelled out in Volume #2 of Jack Smith's report, ie. the transactions made over our national security documents. 👀 👀 👀

WHY the mtg w/ this tangerine travesty who will be known for all eternity as THE worst POTUS in American History, plus Trump banned their Governor Wes Moore from speaking at the shipyard event Moore helped to bring to fruition? Judgement or lack thereof, TBD, but as a diehard Ravens fan...foul.

Is there *anything* more Donald Trump than sticking up for men who drug and gang rape women *solely* because he's still angry that the Special Prosecutor in their case successfully found him to be a felon many times over?

At no point during Senate Republicans speeches & questioning of Jack Smith did a single Republican Senator deny Donald J Trump committed sedition, treason, espionage, breach of national security, conspired to overturn a election, conspired to assault, injure or kill Congress & VP. Think about that

Wow Jake Sherman...I can't believe you stood before a camera & defended the GOP lies & character assassination attempts as okay b/c it's midterm election season. You're no better than they are. Shame on you!

After a week delay, Jack Smith will be appearing tomorrow before the Senate Judiciary Committee, where the majority no doubt lies in wait w/ obtuse, counterfactual questions designed to convert his 100% righteous prosecutions into the pursuit of political vendettas. Expect Smith to keep his cool.

These people make Marie Antoinette look connected to the people and empathetic by comparison. They laugh at what their own voters are going through as they continue to mock them as they enrich themselves and have a great time.
