Trump’s deal to buy Russian diesel from Putin just weeks before the midterms funnels money directly into Russia’s war machine. Trump is now facing calls for Congress to block the deal and impeach him. Meanwhile, energy analysts say it’s unlikely to even make a dent in fuel prices.

Regardless of the legality of posting armed national guard members at drop boxes, whether the boxes were open yet, or whether drop boxes qualify as polling sites under the law; the optics are what matter. Lawful or not, it’s overt, intentional voter suppression.

Trump bought millions in bonds of Elon Musk's SpaceX. Two days later, he signed a national space launch policy. Then, after handing out science medals to his tech buddies, Trump announced America was in a new "golden age" of innovation while slashing science budgets. Link to the full show below ⬇️

1) Putin doesn't have diesel to spare. 2) Diesel is cover for lifting sanctions. 3) Putin's statement sounds like he's offering an Iran escape hatch, which I've been predicting. 4) Half of the MASSIVE bribes Putin is offering now don't exist. 5) But he does mention security coop -- Kash.

NEW: Election denier Tina Peters reportedly discussed a scheme to wrestle control of the midterms from the states with the White House. But the dubious plan, which involves sweeping changes to voting machines and hand counts of ballots, rests on a little-used regulation that covers...WiFi routers.

Election deniers say an obscure rule on Wi-Fi routers means Trump can decide how votes are counted. Here’s why they’re wrong

The right’s hysteria over immigration really boils down to how they look at this chart. The % of America’s foreign born in 2025 is comparable to the % throughout much of the 19th and early 20th Century. What the right really doesn’t like is where immigrants are coming from: Latin America.

Cook Political Report says Democrats would most likely emerge from the election with between 224 and 234 seats, well above the 218 needed for control. Somehow I think that if Democrats win less than 240 seats, the MSM will paint it as a "Democratic disappointment."

The takeaway from Bo French suggesting Asian students are “foreigners” and the tepid GOP response is that the Trump-era Republican Party is increasingly explicit about its belief that the only good immigrants, and the only real Americans, are white. (Gift link) www.theatlantic.com/ideas/2026/1...

The Afrikaner policy is illuminating, because it proves the catch-22 facing nonwhite immigrants: If you are poor, you are a moocher, and if you are gainfully employed, you are taking a job from a hardworking American. The only way to be a good immigrant is to be white and Christian.

Bo French, who is running for a seat on the Texas Railroad Commission, has taken this idea a step further, suggesting that the only way to be an American is to be white and Christian.
