The WSJ editorial board states outright: “…there needs to be a bipartisan reckoning for Mr. Trump’s budding alliance with the Kremlin against Ukraine, Europe and American interests.” wsj.com/opinion/to-russia-wi…

“we will pay any price….to assure the success and survival of liberty.” Is this still true? Do we prize liberty or do we prize power and purse? No more clear test than the choice between Ukraine and Russia. Abandon Ukraine and we abandon liberty. Eventually even our own.

The president and his administration are supercharging American decline, and adding both shame and dishonor to that decline.
.@SECWAR: "Under the previous administration—whether it was October 7th, the war in Ukraine, or the withdrawal in Afghanistan—the world looked at America and WONDERED whether or not we were capable of executing the way we did in the past... PRESIDENT TRUMP SAID WE WILL NOT ACCEPT AMERICAN DECLINE."

Fresh from Trump lifting sanctions on Belarus, Minsk readies to fully join Putin's war on Ukraine. US Congress still fails to stop any of this.

Please stop infantilizing Zacharia. She’s a 41 year old woman who actively vied for a job she was unqualified for, while lying for years about her resume. Treating her like a victim does her — and women — zero favors.

Hotel’s cancellation of 70 rooms = major financial loss. Did hotel execs think it more prudent NOT to have a Jewish themed event despite the economic loss? Engaging in antisemitism used to be a bad look for a business. Now some hotels seem to think it a good business decision
It is unbelievably sad that in Ireland an International conference on Antisemitism was marred by the very JewHate it is seeking to combat before it had even started. Here is a verbatim report of what happened. It should be shared worldwide and @HerbertParkH should be very very ashamed. @WorldJewishCong

The leader of the Republican Party. Vote them out.
Trump: I travel with doctors. If people get sick in the audience, they leave them alone. You know what they call them? Collateral damage. If that person right over there, he looks like shit actually. He looks like he's ready to have a heart attack. If he did, my doctors would leave him alone.

If Putin stops fighting, the war ends. If Zelensky stops fighting then his country will be occupied, leaders murdered, language banned, businesses stolen, children kidnapped. That's what happens in Russian-occupied Ukraine.

The narcissism here is off the scale. You hear that a mentally disturbed man has been mauled to death by a tiger, and your first thought is that it would make a great video opportunity.
President Trump posts an AI video of himself playing with a tiger after posting footage of a man being fatally attacked by a tiger in the UK.

I wish I was surprised.
Absolutely disgraceful from the BBC. Bushra Shaikh has denied the October 7 massacre, mocked protesters in Iran, and actively spread Islamic Republic propaganda while participated in Iranian regime-sponsored media trips. I exposed her connections to Iran’s state-linked propaganda apparatus months ago. She should be facing an investigation into sanctions evasion, not shilling for terrorists on the BBC. telegraph.co.uk/news/2026/10…

Historian of fascism here. This is an escalation of an attempt to normalize extreme violence, ritualize violence, militarize the country, and make violence entertaining so when they ask you to commit violence in their name, you will be ready.
Trump & Hegseth aren't just proposing to livestream an execution for people who want to watch. They're proposing to broadcast a man being shot to death, even if deserved by our system, and even if you agree with this version of the death penalty, knowing that the footage will be clipped, shared, and pushed into social media feeds. Including those of our children. The gruesome image will be everywhere. Parents will have virtually no control over whether their kids see it. Once those images are released, there is no taking them back. Hope all the parents in the Trump Admin are cool with that.

So we’ve got damn near every member of Congress ripping @AIPAC and ripping Israel, but…it’s okay to meet with and suck up to the chief funder of Hamas, the Muslim Brotherhood and other terrorist groups, as well as one of the top funders of anti-Israel and antisemitic activities at American universities? What the fuck is this?👇
The presence of American universities in Qatar is an important way for the United States to promote U.S. values in the Middle East and create more lasting people-to-people connections. I was glad to visit with Sheikha Hind Al Thani in Doha’s Education City

Trump is in office to wreck America and his hatred of the American people is becoming more evident and uncontrollable.
Trump: "With the war, it's just artificial. It's a little bit high. It's a small price to pay ... let them take out Los Angeles, let them take out San Diego. This is a very small price to pay."

The leaks will keep coming because there are still good people in the DOJ and FBI who want to be on the right side of history.
🚨 EXCLUSIVE: Allison Gill has obtained descriptions of NINE FBI training videos showing agents were instructed to flag Epstein documents containing Donald Trump’s name for supervisory review. The DOJ is still refusing to release the actual videos. 👉 youtube.com/live/dYiQOhPYSuc…

Ukraine is amazing! Responsible for the depletion of US stockpiles of weapons that were never sent to Ukraine and for the price of diesel that was stable throughout months Ukrainian attacks on Russian refineries, and only spiked when Trump attack attacked Iran.
Trump blames Ukraine and Democrats for high gas prices

Slowly (too slowly for some entities, e.g., the UK Green Party, the facts will emerge…this is just a beginning.
Porte-parole de l'ONU  « Une enquête interne a conclu que des travailleurs humanitaires de l'UNRWA à Gaza ont "très probablement" participé au massacre perpétré par le Hamas le 7 octobre, qui a coûté la vie à 1 200 hommes, femmes et enfants israéliens !
