Some details: Kremlev, the Russian who sponsored Don Jr's wedding, is a former member of the Night Wolves biker gang, went to China with Putin and is personally sanctioned by Ukraine for his role in abducting children

There’s obviously a lot going on right now, but a Russian oligarch bankrolling the wedding of the president’s son is the kind of story that should dominate headlines in any functioning political culture.
The cyclospora outbreak has reached 13,895 cases across 47 states.
The FDA has recalled 1.6 million eggs due to salmonella contamination.
Screwworm cases continue to rise.
And we’ve just surpassed 2,500 measles cases — breaking 2025’s record.
“Make America Healthy Again.”
Funny how the media is just now "discovering" the trauma of a shooting where no one died, yet have been traumatizing elementary schoolers with active shooter drills for years.
BREAKING: @democracydefendersfund.org is demanding a CFTC investigation into anonymous traders who netted millions on suspiciously timed bets on US military actions—Iran ceasefire, Venezuela invasion & more
Alleged insider trading on war plans IS a national security threat
CFTC must act now - TN
You can have the best armed forces in the history of the world, but if you are an incompetent criminal without a plan, you can still lose a war, and rather quickly.
MASSIE: “Iran is not Venezuela. The Ayatollah was not a president. He was a religious leader… 🇺🇸 & 🇮🇱 turned him into a martyr, expended billions, 6 🇺🇸 families must now lay to rest their sons & daughters. And for what? This administration can't even give us a straight answer.”
For the 2026 primary elections, NPR has collected deadlines and information on how to register to vote — online, in person or by mail — in every U.S. state and territory.
🇺🇸 🏒 Captain hilary knight : “The joke was distasteful & unfortunate— Now I have to sit in front of you and explain someone else's behavior. It's not my responsibility… It’s a great teaching point to really shine light on how women should be championed for their amazing feats.”
Kash Patel in 2023: “I’m just saying Chris Wray doesn’t need a government funded G5 jet to go to vacations. Maybe we ground that plane. $15,000 every time it takes off. Just a thought.”
The President is lying to the public:
1) For the past century, the federal government has been responsible for the Potomac Interceptor – not Maryland. The sewage pipe is on federal land.

Don’t look away from MN. ICE is still wreaking havoc across the state - changing their tactics to deceive Minnesotans - pretending to be construction workers or folks delivering groceries. Still over 2,000 ICE agents in the state. They’re not going anywhere, your anger and outrage shouldn’t either.
An ICE agent attempted to enter the Ecuadorian Consulate in Minneapolis, threatening the staff member who prevented him from entering.
Hello? ICE is so out of control that its agents think they can break international law.
Congress needs to rein them in yesterday.
Ellison: "The Bondi letter reveals what this is all about. This is not about fraud and it's not even about immigration, and it's certainly not about law enforcement. It's about handing over documents of the state of Minnesota, private information, including voting information, to the federal govt."
The lesson of history is that tyrants cannot be appeased.
Appeasement only feeds their insatiable hunger for power.
Tyrants prey on people who feel unsafe and vulnerable.
But without mass submission, a tyrant is powerless.
Remember this.
No one can be watching this Davos speech and reach any conclusion but that the President of the United States is mentally disturbed and that something is deeply wrong with him. This is both embarrassing and extremely dangerous.
Gov. Walz to MS NOW:
"Two days ago it was Elissa Slotkin. Last week it was Jerome Powell. Before that, Mark Kelly. Weaponizing the justice system … is a dangerous, authoritarian tactic.
"The only person not being investigated for the shooting of Renee Good is the federal agent who shot her."
Kristi Noem is a stone-cold liar who has zero credibility.
There is nothing to suggest the shooting of an unarmed woman in Minneapolis was justified.
This heinous killing must be criminally investigated to the full extent of the law.
Remember, being shot by police while you’re violently attacking the US Capitol is murder,
but not wanting to let masked government thugs into your car means you deserve to be murdered.
Samuel Alito flew two flags used by insurrectionists.
Clarence Thomas' wife plotted to overturn the 2020 election.
Both justices refused to recuse themselves from SCOTUS cases related to the January 6th plot.
It's a stain on our nation that this has effectively been forgotten.

Just made a contribution to both the desk and scholarship kind fund. Thank you for the brilliant work you do in activism and the Last Word. I really have struggled to be in the holiday spirit until I contributed to those beautiful kids. 🤘🏼☮️
If men with guns and masks tried to pull me out of my car, I'd fight back. Courts should reject any claims by the government that this is aggression by the person being detained, resisting arrest, or that they're a flight risk.
I’m tired of being divided into teams.
Do you have an elderly grandparent who needs care? So do I.
Do you struggle to afford the high price of everything? So do I.
Do you know what it means to carry the weight of medical debt? So do I.
You’re on my team — and I’m on yours.
This should be getting a lot more attention. And no journalist should sign it.
"The idea that a member of the Pentagon press corps or a reporter writ large can only write what the government tells them to, that's not how it works in the United States of America."

The words from Gov Cox of Utah are the words they should be coming from the president of the United States.
Will the media hold him, and people like Nancy Mace accountable for their false accusations?
Soybeans are collapsing because China isn’t buying them. The farm economy is in deep trouble. Because of our needless trade war that we are clearly losing.
Maybe farmers will wake up
