If California billionaires can scrape together $340 MILLION to fight a tax on billionaires, I think we've officially settled whether they can afford to pay the fucking tax.

Trump’s special envoy Steve Witkoff to Vladimir Putin today: “You talk so much about Trump being a humanitarian, you are a humanitarian also, sir. And I salute that. I commend you.”
Readers added context they thought people might want to know
Putin is wanted by the ICC for war crimes of kidnapping Ukrainian children. UN found his forces' drone attacks on civilians are crimes against humanity. UN verified 16,431 civilians killed in Ukraine, 803 children. There are 239,350 verified dead Russian soldiers. gpb.org/news/2023/03/1… rferl.org/a/ukraine-russ… ukraine.ohchr.org/en/Civilian-Ca… brusselssignal.eu/2026/08/media-…

Trump has "convinced himself, three people close to him have told us, that Ukraine’s attacks on the refineries are, in part, meant to undermine Republicans’ chances next month—and by extension, Trump."

Pete Hegseth just gutted the system troops use to report wrongdoing. The military’s Inspector General is how a service member safely reports fraud, abuse, a dangerous commander, or a sexual assault, often anonymously, without fear of retaliation. Hegseth’s overhaul strips that anonymity, lets “non-credible” complaints get tossed, and flags anyone who files too often. He calls the old system “weaponized," yet offered no evidence. A junior enlisted troop who sees something wrong just lost their safest way to say so. That doesn't protect the force. It protects the people at the top. military.com/pete-hegseth-an…

Hegseth Orders Military to Reject Most Anonymous Complaints and Put Commanders Back in Charge

"Commanders are now back in charge," Hegseth said, arguing that the previous system had allowed "frivolous complaints" to hinder military leadership.

Trump announces "fraud whistleblower incentive program" -- "All Americans will now be able to go to fraud dot gov and report cases of corruption and theft of taxpayer dollars in their communities ... if you turn somebody in and you find $1 billion, we're giving a commission of 1%. That's a lot of money"

Reminder - Armed agents at the polls is a crime, not a gray area. The law doesn’t care what uniform they’re wearing. If you see it, write down where and when, take a photo if it’s safe, and call 866-OUR-VOTE.

Yes, this is the tectonic collision that is being setup, and we aren’t talking enough about what it means. Either they are totally wrong, or they have some reason to think they are correct. The danger lies in that thing we cannot yet see clearly.

A fascinating strategic dynamic at play now is how far Putin, Gulf States and tech oligarchs doubled down on a calculus that Trump is eternal god emperor of the US when it looks more like America is about to be defined by an era of chaotic internal conflict as Trump's power ebbs

.@iamjohnoliver in a @LastWeekTonight segment did a bit during his 1st term & joked we’ve hit rock bottom. Several weeks later, he gave an update & the gist was, ‘we’ve drilled thru the center of the earth & come out the other side’. What say you now?

Musk thought he had bribed Trump enough in the midterms that the White House would agree to say Trump and Musk together agreed to throttle Starlink for Ukraine. But

“During the uproar, SpaceX representatives called White House counterparts seeking a unified understanding and subsequent message that the company and Trump administration coordinated ahead of Musk’s directive, the people said.”
