Jared Kushner is key to understanding the Trump regime’s global scale of corruption. No talent, no morals—just bottomless greed, access to power. @cjcmichel.bsky.social exposes him in a new book, “United States of Oligarchy.” Here’s our talk (get him on your show!) youtu.be/8LDhLXOwjcI?...

NEW: GOP Gov nominee Victor Marx says he'll respond today to domestic violence allegations - video/audio where he describes slamming his wife into a door and throwing his toddler across a room. Voters/reporters new to Marx may not realize he has a long history of justifying violence.

A few reasons I wouldn't acknowledge Trump's request if I were FR or DE - With winter on the doorstep, they're going to need that stockpile - Given Trump's posture toward NATO, and with Russia actively saber-wrattling near the Baltics, that stockpile is now a security concern.
