Trump said it, yes. The Kremlin is saying it too. Neither's word has value. I'll believe tons of fuel go from Russia to the US when I see it. But getting Russia to say this, hoping that'll ease prices for a bit, like Trump has touted foreign promises to buy American that don't happen? Plausible.

We received a call about an attack and went to support the family. This is 78-year-old Mustafa, a farmer from Abu Falah in the West Bank. Invaders attacked his property at 1:15 a.m. on Sunday, 9/27. Four of his vehicles, including a tractor, were burned, and the windows of his home were busted out.

Pay attention. An ambassador nominee needs $100,000. Not a loan…a WIRE. Not to her…to AmEx. “It won't show up anywhere." "Please." That's what Kimberly Guilfoyle reportedly texted a Trump donor on Signal, per the WSJ. She wasn't hiding a debt. She was hiding the paper trail. Ask yourself why

The "brilliant Barrett" is the one that gets me the most, bc it arguably is less about Feldman himself and more about how elite law schools and institutions see SCOTUS: Not as an institution that actually has real, and often devastating, impacts on ppl's lives. But a prize for legal cleverness.
