wow -- Fox Business is now treating Trump's completely made up economic boasts as though they are factual. Note the citation here -- "The White House" Reminder that the entire US economy is about $32t. If we really had $21t flowing in, you'd notice it Fox thinks their viewers are really dumb
Fox Biz screencap that says: "$21 TRILLION INVESTMENTS POURING INTO THE US"

If they’re admitting 81 planes, drones and helicopters worth $3.3 billion have been lost in Iran, imagine what they’re not telling us. The real cost is likely far higher, and our grandchildren will be paying for this unnecessary war and his reckless spending. www.businesstoday.in/amp/world/st...

Her assassination provoked immense international outrage, occurring symbolicly on Putin's 54th birthday. While several contract killers & accomplices were eventually convicted years later, those who ordered & financed her murder have never been identified or brought to justice. #PressFreedom

#OTD in 2006, Anna Politkovskaya--Russian investigative journalist & human rights defender--was murdered in her apt building in Moscow. #PressFreedom She exposed state corruption, opposed the Chechen conflict & wrote "Putin's Russia," a book critical of his rise to power & authoritarian shift.
A serious portrait-style photograph of Russian journalist, author, and human rights activist Anna Politkovskaya (August 30, 1958 – October 7, 2006). Globally revered for her fearless exposure of human rights abuses in Chechnya and her staunch criticism of Vladimir Putin, she looks slightly off-camera with a solemn, resolute, and deeply contemplative expression. Her face is framed by her signature silver-gray hair, parted down the middle and tucked behind her ears, revealing long, slender gold bar earrings. She wears oval, wire-rimmed gold glasses and a crisp, white collared shirt that stands out sharply against the composition. She is in the right two-thirds of the frame, balanced by a soft-focused, bright outdoor background of green and white bokeh on the left. The lighting is soft and even, highlighting her focused gaze. The overall mood is serious, reflective, and dignified, serving as a powerful visual testament to her legacy as a champion of press freedom who paid the ultimate price for her investigative work.

A fluffy black cat with large white eyes lies on its side on green grass beneath a textured sky fading from blue to pale pink. White handwritten text reads: “Maybe sometimes you want to do everything so badly that you end up doing nothing at all. That’s okay. Maybe you’re more tired than you realise. I just hope you know that taking care of yourself counts as doing something, too.”

Why does another presidential retreat need to be at a property owned by the sitting president? Calling it a gift to future presidents doesn’t erase the obvious conflict of interest.

Well isn’t this self-serving? The White House confirmed that the Trump administration has asked officials to look into creating a presidential retreat at Trump’s own golf club in Palm Beach “for future Presidents.” We already have Camp David.
