They just passed a budget that included a massive increase in the federal debt and are about to come back and pass a huge increase in military spending, a 3rd bailout for farmers, and many billions to cover the cost of the Iran War. These people NEVER reduce the deficit. bsky.app/profile/atru...

CASONE: We surpassed $40 trillion in debt. In any way, shape, or form, is fiscal restraint going to be on the agenda for you and your colleagues? TOM EMMER: Uh, it has been. That will be priority number one when we get through the midterms.

Russia's gasoline output now averages 80,000 tons daily after Ukrainian drone attacks and their domestic demand is 115,000 tons. Russia can't close this gap with purchased imports and their situation will only get worse this winter.

The Pentagon influencer scandal keeps getting bigger. More partisan online personalities. More government jobs. More taxpayer money. Who hired them, what are they being paid to do, and are military officers violating the UCMJ? This deserves answers.

SEN. BLUMENTHAL: Ratcliffe’s mission could well be empty and ephemeral, unless it's backed by a real show of strength. Putin is a mob thug. He understands only force and strength. Sending CIA Director to warn Putin, or try to persuade him with words, is going to be ineffective.

The truth behind Trump’s Venezuela oil grift. Grocery prices surging. Rep. Garcia’s shadow hearing on a big Trump crisis. A MAGA “cheap gas” scheme accused of selling stolen fuel. Military leaders warning the Iran war is stretching U.S. forces thin. And much more in today’s bulletin:

OTD in 1996 Russia signed the Khasavyurt Accords which ended 1st Chechen War on unfavorable terms. Almost exactly 3 years later we staged false flags to justify tearing the agreement up to start the 2nd Chechen War. We used the time to get ready to attack again. Which should not sound familair.

Belgorod today. I remember the first two years of the full-scale war when they cheered for ballistic missile launches that were hitting Kharkiv every day. Not so funny anymore, is it?

Q: Michael, your reaction to President Trump saying that U.S. struck a deal taking control of a huge portion of Venezuela’s oil reserves? McFAUL: This is imperialism. This is 16th, 17th, 18th, and 19th century imperialism. When countries in the North went to countries in the South,

APPLEBAUM: Instead of integrating drones, Hegseth is canceling drone battalion and talking about push-ups and facial hair. It’s really insane. I mean, if someone were paying him to undermine United States, or if he were a secret enemy, this is how he would behave. It's suicidal.
