It is amazing that anyone can still doubt that Trump is a Putin asset. Trump's diesel deal will: - Finance Putin's murderous war on Ukrainian civilians - Fracture the US-Europe alliance - Allow Russia to provide even more support to Iran Trump's true goal is Russia first, America last.

Chris Murphy: "Donald Trump was so fundamentally unprepared for this war that within days of the war starting, our billion dollar air bases and naval bases in the region were obliterated by the Iranians. Every single American should be furious about that."

If you’re MAGA, do your best to enjoy the next two years. Because you will spend the remainder of your life looking back and realizing how you crushed your own reputation, and how you will never have power again. Two years seems like a long time, it isn’t when you look in the rear view mirror.

53% of registered U.S. voters recently polled by YouGov selected 'corrupt' when asked which words they’d use to describe Trump. Corruption can take time to uncover, and even longer to register with the public. But I think Americans are starting to take note.

I'm not sure what this is - a not-very-funny joke, an insult to female couples, or a poorly conceived way to target new voters a month out from the elections - but I know it's not the way any candidate should be advertising themselves. I remain perplexed as to what has happened to my party.

I’ll never fault anyone who voted for Trump. Voters did their best with the lies and false promises made. But the Republicans I worked alongside for years are unforgivable for going along with his evil, corruption, and incompetence. You should have known better and done something long before now.

The bromance is entirely one-sided; Xi didn’t greet Trump at the airport when Trump went to Beijing. Yet, as a token of his unrequited friendship, Trump gave China access to AI chips, paused a $14B arms sales to Taiwan, and offered excuses for China aiding Iran to target U.S. bases. wapo.st/4rwZif1

Serious question: Does the president not know what’s in the deal he made with Iran? There are no nuclear concessions in the MOU Trump signed. He is a serial liar and would overstate any gains, but on top of that, there’s a live possibility Vance/Kushner/Witkoff lied to him that they got side deals.
NYT News update by Tyler Pager
July 8, 2026, 4:48 a.m.

Trump is furious at Iran for what he describes as their violations of the agreement.

“We make a deal, and  everyone’s agreed. No nuclear weapons. We make a deal. They go outside, talk to the press, they say we never even talked about it. There’s something wrong with them. They’re cuckoo. As far as I’m concerned, it’s over.”
