2/“We appreciate President Trump’s involvement in trying to end the Russia-Ukraine war. But in Poland we believe that this will bear fruit if you pressure the aggressor and not the victim of aggression,” he said.​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​

❗️Polish Foreign Minister Radosław Sikorski stated on October 12 in an interview with Bloomberg Television on the sidelines of the Warsaw Security Forum that US President Donald Trump should pressure Russia, not Ukraine.

“I have a lot of men [at Ground Zero] right now,” Trump told German TV station N24. “We have over 100 and we have about 125 coming. So we’ll have a couple hundred people down here.” Meanwhile, back in the real world . . . In 2001, the Trump Organization had *12* employees.

NEWS: Donald Trump’s own nephew, Fred Trump, is publicly calling out his uncle’s lies about 9/11, saying Trump’s claim that he brought a crew of workers to Ground Zero “so offends me that I need to speak out.”
Alt text: Screenshot of a post on X from Fred Trump (@FredTrump_) that reads:

“There are two reports out today that relate to the tragedy of 9/11. I will comment on them today because doing so on the 25th anniversary this Friday would take away from the solemn memories. I try not to comment personally about my uncle, but his claim that he brought a crew of workers to help at the sight so offends me that I need to speak out. He was not building a “big building “ at the time. The only crew he claimed to bring to the site would have been secretarial and accounting employees from Trump Tower I knew many of them, and pretty sure they were not capable physically to help (if they could, I am sure they would try). Regarding the US Steel Building, ironically, the grandfather of a very close friend of mine was one of the original engineers- the bldg was built strong. Second, the brother of a partner of mine was an engineer that was immediately called to perform an inspection. While people were originally concerned, it was eventually cleared for occupancy- not creaking and ready to fall. I hope this brings some truth to that story. The second story will follow.

Mehdi Hasan: How do you cover this? A previous president would have received wall to wall coverage for even one of these tweets. And yet Trump floods the zone and the media cannot and often will not cover the sheer extent of his insanity and indecency.
