Psychiatrist Dr. Bandy Lee issues a stark warning about the upcoming midterms: “This is probably going to be the most dangerous period in American history.” Speaking with Anthony Davis, she explains what she fears could happen if the midterm results go against Trump.

Filipkowski on Putin: He is intentionally humiliating Trump. He wants to diminish the United States. He wants to diminish our credibility and our prestige. What better way to do it than week after week after week, making the president of the United States look like a clown?

Elon is dumping mountains of money into the midterms to help Republicans. Spoiler: it isn’t to make life better for regular people — It’s to enrich himself, spread data centers, get government contracts, etc… he does not care about you. www.instagram.com/p/DeaJjWxl0H...

Elon Musk’s SpaceX restricted military Starlink without warning overnight as Russia pounded Kyiv, disrupting drone missions and leaving 600,000 Ukrainians in the dark. No billionaire should have this much power. Musk is punishing Zelenskyy because Ukraine's attack on Data Centers. What a POS!

If the disruption really is some kind of political intervention, this is only further proof that Europeans—or anyone in the world—can’t rely on any of Musk’s products, as they will be at the whims of the technocrat that still finds himself at Trump’s beck and call. newrepublic.com/post/216600/...

Trump just handed Putin a lifeline weeks before the midterms. Energy analysts say his Russian diesel deal won’t meaningfully lower prices. And a tanker that left Russia weeks before the announcement raises an even bigger question: How long was this in the works?

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.

Trump has denied disaster relief for Illinois following severe storms in August. Trump approved a request from Indiana for damage resulting from the same storms. One is a "blue state." The other is a "red state." No other president has politicized natural disasters the way that Trump has.
