Absurd framing. Trump tore up JPOA. Started a war with Iran with unclear goals. When it went south tried to get a cease fire but peace was never the goal.

Trump denies disaster aid to four blue states, after approving aid to six red states
A White House spokesperson said there is “no politicization to the president’s decisions on disaster relief.” There’s compelling evidence to the contrary.

Currently the Trump administration is blocking disaster relief for every blue state. Not a dozen houses in one state.

Chevron and ExxonMobil don’t own the vast majority of stations that sell their products. They are franchises that typically make a small margin on the difference between the wholesale price they pay for fuel and what they charge motorists. The big profits are made upstream by the major oil companies

Why do journalists amplify Trump’s blatant lies? They could literally go to the Reflecting Pool and see for themselves that there is no damage caused by box cutters or vandalism.

Your client should sue for compensation under the still in effect weaponization fund. This is as egregious as any violation of rights Trump has paid compensation for.
