… Widespread outrage and condemnation this weekend across both parties and around the world of Trump’s deal to lift sanctions against Russian energy and purchase large quantities to sell in the US market.
… The Atlantic: “Trump announced a ‘massive’ deal to buy diesel fuel from Russia. For the American truckers and farmers Trump claims to be serving, the deal means little or nothing. Trump may not know or may not care that his latest gambit will not reduce diesel prices. His poll numbers are plunging to Herbert Hoover levels. He needs a last-minute electioneering gimmick.
… But while the deal will not benefit American consumers, it has immense consequences for others. For Vladimir Putin’s Russia, the deal is a potential lifesaver. For war-ravaged Ukraine, it is the most outrageous and heartless Trump betrayal to date. For Trump’s entourage, the deal promises corruption opportunities on a multibillion-dollar scale.
… For people trying to understand the Trump presidency, the deal is further proof of the accusation that Nancy Pelosi flung in Trump’s face in 2019: ‘With you, all roads lead to Putin.’ Friends of Ukraine hailed the attacks on Russian energy infrastructure as a war-changing success. Trump saw a threat to Republican hopes in the midterms.
… Since Trump’s return to power in 2025, the Putin regime has dangled lucrative deals in front of the president’s entourage. They ‘found receptive partners in Witkoff and Kushner, whose investment fund, Affinity Partners, drew billion-dollar investments from the Arab monarchies whose conflict with Israel he had helped mediate.’
… NYT reported last week about an even more brazen Russian offering: a multibillion-dollar oil deal for assets owned by Russia’s Lukoil, which would directly benefit a Trump donor and two Middle Eastern groups that have done business with Kushner or Witkoff’s family.”
… Professor of Strategic Studies Phillips O’Brien:
“The real story here is not about diesel, it is about the US increasingly emerging as a supporter of Russia in this war. Since Trump became president for the second time, the US has moved steadily to support Putin in his war to wipe out Ukraine. For most of the time that has been through limiting Ukraine and leaving Ukraine defenseless—so that Russia can bombard Ukraine mercilessly.
However, that has not been all. The US aid for Russia has extended to outright diplomatic support (all those UN votes, the Putin red-carpet visit, etc.), to spreading Russian disinformation (most recently by Marco Rubio this week), to even manipulating Ukraine and Ukrainian allies into doing what Russia wants.”
… Rep. Michael McCaul (R-TX) posted:
“Through the Lindsey O. Graham Sanctioning Russia and Iran Act, we gave the president significant authorities and leverage against China and Russia to bring Putin’s war to an end with a negotiated settlement.
Unfortunately, while I understand the desire to bring down diesel prices, I am concerned the lifting of sanctions on Russian oil will only fund the Kremlin’s war machine—emboldening more violence and destruction, as we have seen in recent days.”
… Rep. Don Bacon (R-KS): “Let’s be honest. Trump is and always has been weak on Putin. We need a President who is up to the task of leading the Free World. Ukraine should destroy Russia’s diesel production infrastructure. Totally destroy it. Our President should complain to Putin about Russia bombing Ukrainian cities, not complain to Ukraine who is the victim and who is defending itself.”
… Trump’s former VP Mike Pence:
“Trump’s decision to lift sanctions on Russian fuel amidst Putin’s ongoing and brutal attacks on civilian targets in Ukraine makes no sense and is a betrayal of the legacy and leadership of the late Sen. Lindsey Graham. While Ukraine fights for its survival, Putin’s war machine continues to prosecute his terrorist war on civilian populations and innocent Ukrainians are dying every day.
Now, Instead of implementing the tough sanctions Lindsey Graham fought to his last breath to enact, Trump has announced the US is lifting sanctions on Russian energy, fueling the Putin’s war machine. As I saw firsthand in Ukraine last month, Putin is losing this war. Ukraine has fought the Russian military to a standstill and reinvented warfare with drones taking the fight into the heart of Russia.
America should not be throwing a lifeline to Putin’s war machine. Now is the time to stand strong against Russian aggression as we did during the first Trump admin. Putin doesn’t want peace. Putin wants Ukraine. I have no doubt that if Putin overruns Ukraine, it will only be a matter of time until Russia’s military crosses a border that our troops will have to deal with him.
… For our National Security, for the security of our Allies in Europe including Ukraine, Trump should rescind this deal immediately and return to the strong policies of our 4 years in the WH; impose harsh sanctions on any nation purchasing Russian energy and work with our allies to ensure Ukraine has the military support it needs to repel and defeat this Russian invasion once and for all. Slava Ukraini.”
… From Trump’s press gaggle outside WH as he was leaving for a rally in TN:
“I suggest they get a new leader who can make a deal. I think it’s time for Ukraine to get a new president.”
“Zelenskyy could have settled this war many times, but he chooses not to. We said you can do whatever you want to Russia but don’t hit the refineries. But he wants to make problems for our farmers and ranchers because Russia supplies a large portion of diesel fuel for the world.”
“Russia would like to make a deal, but for whatever reason Zelenskyy doesn’t want to make a deal. Putin would like to see a settlement. He’s freeing up a lot of oil for the world and that’s a good thing.”
“I ended 8 wars. I stopped China and I stopped Taiwan, that’s going along but I stopped it. And they gave the Nobel Prize to a person that nobody ever heard of. I never heard of her. I think she’s very anti-Israel, that’s what I hear. And they gave her the Nobel Prize. There’s something wrong in Norway.”
Q - “Are you committed to accepting the results of the midterms no matter what party wins? Trump: Of course I will. But we don’t want cheating. Q - So if Republicans lose— Trump interrupts: We don’t want cheating.”
Q - “Should John Fetterman switch parties? Trump: I’d love to have him as a Republican. It’s going to be tough for him to win a primary as a Democrat. John’s a great guy. He’s a very solid person, he’s smart.”
… Zelenskyy responded on ABC:
“I said it to Trump, to his team and to his people several times: we want peace, we are ready for a ceasefire, we are ready to begin from any kind of steps of de-escalation. And if the Russians want us not to attack their diesel, their refineries and etc., we are asking Trump, give them signal not attack energy infrastructure of Ukraine.”
“Because of the war in the Middle East, prices are rising. They’re increasing because of the war in the Middle East, the blocking of Hormuz. Everyone understands it. If we want to speak with people fairly, if we want to be clear, if we want to speak with our nations openly, people have to hear reality. Don’t play games with people.”
“If Trump really wants to have elections, tell Putin give us two months, 60 days of total ceasefire - 60 days - and we will organize elections. Of course, we will be ready for any choice of our people.”
“Don’t attack us. Don’t kill our children. We will stop attacking your diesel. And I think it’s fair, fair deal.”
… Fox host Rachel Campos-Duffy: “There has been a million kids killed on the Russian side. This could be good if you care about peace. Trump is getting criticism from that ingrate Zelenskyy who keeps blowing up refineries and making it more complicated for Trump before the midterms.”
… Ukraine has had 835 children killed in Russian strikes. Russia has reported 3 children killed during a cross-border artillery battle between the two armies.
… Former UK PM Boris Johnson: “It’s sickening that the USA is now lifting sanctions on Russian fuel, and transparently ridiculous to blame Ukraine for the spike in prices that obviously began with the closure of the Strait of Hormuz.
… Putin is murdering innocent Ukrainian civilians every day. The Ukrainians are fighting for their lives. And yet the WH is apparently determined to force American drivers to bankroll Putin’s slaughter. It won’t work and I doubt it will make much difference to the price of fuel.”
… Fox chief political analyst Brit Hume responded to Boris Johnson: “He’s right.”
… Bloomberg: Western intelligence assessments indicate Iran has preserved substantial missile and drone production capacity despite US-Israeli strikes. One official says Russia is resupplying additional undisclosed types of missiles.
… Trump then posted this on Sunday morning: “Effective immediately, there is an ENERGY CEASEFIRE in the War between Russia and Ukraine. Both parties have agreed. Do not break it!”
… Axios asked Zelenskyy about Trump’s post. He didn’t know anything about any deal: “The announcement about the ceasefire was news to me. But if the Russians agree to a ceasefire in the energy sector, Ukraine will also agree. If Trump agreed to this with Putin - please let us know when the ceasefire begins. We are ready and will agree to it.”
… He later posted:
“Today, there was a statement from the President of the US that an energy ceasefire has been secured. This is good news for everyone – and it is important that it become reality. Unfortunately, Ukrainian skies have been infested with Russian ‘shaheds’ all day today. There have been glide bomb strikes and strikes on our energy infrastructure too. A power plant in Kharkiv was attacked this evening.
Overall, this past week alone, the Russians have carried out more than 200 strikes on our electricity generation and transmission facilities in Ukraine, and another 17 strikes this week targeted gas and oil facilities. They have killed more than 150 of our people, and more than 700 people have been wounded.
Ukraine has proposed many de-escalatory steps. Putin had one answer to all of them – ‘nyet.’ We do hope that he will finally say something to America, Ukraine, and the entire world that will lead to a real and dignified peace.
Ukraine wants peace. The question is whether Russia does. The Armed Forces of Ukraine have received all the appropriate orders. We are awaiting clear details of the dialogue between America and Russia – and we expect Putin to follow through on what Trump said.”
… Something that hasn’t gotten as much media coverage as the refinery bombings has been Ukraine’s recent targeting of Russian data centers. 3 of the largest in Russian have been struck with serious political implications for Putin’s global propaganda machine.
… Capitol Hill reporter Jamie Dupree: “Ukraine hits another Yandex data center in Russia and Cloudflare data shows Russian bot traffic dropping dramatically. Might have an impact right before the November elections.”
… Cyber security analyst Jeremiah Fowler: “According to Cloudflare Data Explorer the amount of Russian bot traffic has dropped to 49% after Ukraine struck a Yandex data center. Could this disrupt the midterm elections in the US?”
… Ukrainian journalist Ilia Ponomarenko: “You know, the activity of Russian bots here really does seem to have dropped noticeably. Looks like those healing drone strikes on Yandex’s Russian data centers have given Putin’s most die-hard fans a few extra days off.”
These Weekend Bulletins can be a bit longer than the daily Bulletins during the week because I have to cover two days. We lifted the paywall from all our content from now until election day so the maximum number of people can stay on top of things at this crucial time. If you missed Friday’s Bulletin, you can find it here.
We had a great time at our last fair of the year in Fryeburg yesterday. Neither Susan Collins nor Troy Jackson were there for the parade, which had a big turnout. I know Collins attended the fair for a photo op on Friday. RNC Chair Joe Gruters marched in it with swing district congressional candidate Paul LePage. When they were introduced by the announcer there was complete silence, which was encouraging. - especially since this was a country fair crowd with lots of rural white people.
Tomorrow is also Ask the Editor where I choose 5 of your questions to answer on the podcast with Pablo. Please submit any question you have or topic you want me to talk more about in the comments to this Bulletin below.
… House GOP Whip Tom Emmer on ABC:
Q - “This idea of livestreaming the execution of the Fort Hood shooter - the US Conference of Catholic Bishops called it ‘a barbaric promotion of the culture of death.’ Are you in favor of this idea? Emmer: I am so happy we have a president who will make a decision which is in the best interest of the American people. He will hold the criminals and terrorists accountable.”
Q - “You’ve been a strong supporter of Ukraine and voted for sanctions on Russia. So what do you make of Trump’s plan to buy Russian diesel? Emmer: Well, it’s another example of our president thinking out of the box. You know, he’s listening to the American people. The American people are hurting. He is the president of peace.”
… Sad, pathetic, spineless, cowardly people who believe in nothing other than worshipping Trump. Vote them out so we can have a Congress again.
… WaPo: “The Pentagon acknowledged that the number of troops who have died in the Middle East during its operations against Iran is higher than previously reported, and updated the official count to include two more noncombat deaths. WaPo reported last month that the numbers of service members lost was greater than what the Pentagon was reporting in its official, public database.
… Pete Hegseth at the time called that reporting ‘a complete lie’ in a social media post. However, late Friday, the Pentagon raised the figure publicly reported in DCAS to include additional deaths. As of Friday, the total troop deaths the admin is connecting to operations against Iran and officially reporting in DCAS stands at 21. In addition, 865 service members have been wounded.”
… Sen. Chris Murphy (D-CT) on CBS:
“Trump was so fundamentally unprepared for this war that within days of the war starting, our billion dollar air bases and naval bases in the region were obliterated by the Iranians. Every single American should be furious about that.”
“Right now members of Congress are being denied the ability to see the damage at these bases because there’s a coverup underway. There’s a coverup underway to try to hide the cost of this war and the debacle it has caused in the region.”
… WaPo: “Two former GOP governors in KS, Mike Hayden and Bill Graves, endorsed Democrat Adam Hamilton, writing op-eds, giving interviews and appearing in campaign videos in which they say his opponent, incumbent Republican Sen. Roger Marshall, is no longer the right fit for the state.
… Democrats have become more bullish on the KS race. On Friday, Senate Majority PAC, Democrats’ spending arm for the chamber, announced a $5 million ad campaign in KS. The group said it decided to invest after realizing the race was growing more competitive.
… Hamilton’s background as a prominent pastor has appealed to some KS conservatives. He was a founding pastor of the Church of the Resurrection, the largest United Methodist congregation in the country. On the trail, he has noted that his flock has a roughly even split of Republicans, Democrats and independent worshipers.”
Graves: “I’ve just been terribly disappointed and alarmed at the congressional level in the Republicans’ willingness to yield so easily, so readily, to this executive branch and yielding to actions that a lot of Americans don’t think make a lot of sense.”
Hayden, who supported Marshall in his last election, said he couldn’t do so again after the senator backed the Iran war and the Trump admin’s tariffs “despite the consequences for Kansans. It’s time for a change. KS needs a senator willing to stand up and say ‘This isn’t working.’”
… Meanwhile, Marshall made this post after he was shamed by a small business in KS after he stiffed them on a $678 cookie bill for a campaign event:
“As some folks may have seen, there was a post on social media regarding an unpaid 2020 cookie bill. We have absolutely no idea how this happened, but rest assured as soon as it became known to us, we immediately attempted to contact the business in order to apologize, and we have repaid the bill from 2020, double.”
… He knew. He intentionally stiffed them because he’s an arrogant prick who sues his OB/GYN patients. They repeatedly tried to get the bill paid. Then someone posted their pleas on social media. A bunch of us retweeted it. It went viral. ONLY THEN did this scumbag pay.
… Hamilton on ABC:
Q - “JD Vance really went after you. He called your views ‘left wing radicalism dressed in the skin suit of our religion’ and said they ‘aren’t Christianity.’ Hamilton: I thought it was really sad. It was pathetic. He doesn’t know anything about me. When did we start attacking people’s faith? I thought it was a sad statement that the VP would come here and attack the faith of the pastor of the largest church in the state of Kansas.
… Host Jonathan Karl: “Our thanks to Adam Hamilton. We requested an interview with Sen. Roger Marshall. He did not respond.”
… Democratic nominee for senate in MI Abdul El-Sayed was on NBC: Q - “Earlier this year you said Trump should be impeached. What do you see as his impeachable offenses? El-Sayed: Like, which one? There are many. A Qatari jet. We have to make sure that we abide by the rule of law, that every president understands who comes after Trump that there is a rule of law, I think that is absolutely critical.”
… Sen. John Husted (D-OH) at a campaign stop: Q - “The WSJ reported that Rep. Max Miller (R-OH) had some negative comments about you. He said that you’re ‘smart as a box of rocks.’ Do you have any response to that? Husted: No.” He then walked away.
… After Republicans launched a number of conspiracies during his absents from the campaign trail where he reportedly had the flu, Democratic nominee for TX senate James Talarico posted:
“I challenged Ken Paxton to a debate 85 days ago, but no one has heard from him. People are getting worried. I’ve received credible reports he’s suffering from a rare condition that causes clinical levels of cowardice. Ken Paxton: I am asking for proof of ability to debate.”
… Telegraph: “DOJ is investigating whether the 5 major American television networks violated antitrust laws when they temporarily suspended pool coverage of Trump. ABC, NBC, CBS, CNN and Fox refused to film Trump’s public engagements for several days in solidarity with CNN after he banned the outlet from the WH.
… Officials from the DOJ ordered the networks to hand over communications related to the WH pool, a rotating system where one channel records footage of the US president and distributes it to other outlets.
… A spokesman for the DOJ said the agency was investigating the networks under the Sherman Act, the US’s flagship antitrust law passed in 1890 to break up monopolies and ban anticompetitive practices, including in the oil and tobacco industries. This is the first time that the Trump admin has used antitrust laws against media companies.”
… The Trump rally speech in TN on Saturday night was crazy as usual, with his constant companion Natalie Harp accompanying him as usual on Air Force One. Kid Rock (who owns a bar there) gave the warm-up speech for Trump:
“We will never be one nation under Muhammad because we are and we always will be one nation under God.”
“If you want your hard earned tax dollars supporting these bums, who won’t take responsibility for themselves, but they keep having kid after kid after kid, go ahead, vote for those nut jobs.”
… Now Trump’s rambling rants:
“I could say the stupidest things and you’d clap and say, ‘Oh, I love you so much.’ It’s true.”
… Yeah, we know.
Trump: “We need an ocean. So I was thinking of either the Atlantic or the Pacific. We could call it Trump Ocean or Ocean of the Americas, something like that.”
“Kid Rock, he’s a very talented guy. Some say he should run for office. I’d like it.”
On Canada: “I like the national anthem, O Canada, but I don’t really have to listen to it, and we don’t need hockey sticks. We don’t need face masks. We don’t need the kind of stuff they sell us.”
“I don’t like talking about trans much. I only talk about it right before elections. How the hell do you win with men in women’s sports and transgender for everybody?”
“I could say the stupidest things and you’d clap and say, ‘Oh, I love you so much.’ It’s true.”
“Somebody said that Kamala is so beautiful. Really????”
… Sen. Marsha Blackburn, the likely next governor of TN, also spoke at the rally: “We will make certain that Tennessee never becomes California.”
… Not much danger in that.
… WSJ: Kamala Harris’s husband has privately expressed a wish for her not to run for president again. Doug Emhoff told people that he would prefer the former VP not to launch another WH bid. However, sources said that he would support her if she decided to run. Harris has yet to declare whether she will seek the Democratic nomination in 2028, but has indicated that she is considering another campaign.
… Even Trafalgar Group, a pollster known for its Republican-friendly results that has been them Trump’s favorite, now has Democrat James Talarico leading Ken Paxton in the Texas Senate race. Talarico leads Paxton 47.1% to 43.6%, with Libertarian Ted Brown at 1.8% and 7.6% undecided.
… Hillary Clinton: “When I was at the opening of the Obama library—Michelle Obama gave that speech about all of the things that her husband had done that the other guy has not, when she got to the Nobel peace prize, I just burst into laughter. I thought it was so perfect. Barack Obama turned around and grinned at me. I leaned forward and said I really hope that Trump is watching this. Barack said, ‘me too’.”
… DHS Secretary Markwayne Mullin on CBS:
On Trump’s taxpayer funded ads: “Any time we can do a PSA and brag about America, I’m all about it. I commend the opportunity of Trump to give us the opportunity to brag about America.”
Q - “Nidal Hasan is in a wheelchair. Doesn't the admin risk livestreaming his execution and making him a martyr? Couldn't this be a risk to the homeland? Mullin: No one has to watch it. Q - Then why are you livestreaming it? Mullin: The president is restoring American values.”
… Mullen then went on CNN: Q - “In terms of tactics, shouldn't agents be checking if a 5-year-old is in the vehicle before they fire into it? Mullin: You know who the 5-year-old was in the car? Oscar did. He chose to accelerate. Why would you put your child into a situation like that?”
… NYC Mayor Zohran Mamdani:
"There is a reason why the NYPD would not be shooting at a moving vehicle. There is a reason why law enforcement agents are supposed to wear identifiable info and uniforms. What you could see in the videos is bystanders outside unsure as to what they were even seeing. Because in that imagery, it feels as if you’re almost looking at a mass shooter as opposed to seeing someone who’s purportedly representing a federal agency."
… New WH Press Secretary Katie Zacharia was on Fox. Listening to her it is painfully obvious she is in WAY over her head and is going to make Karoline Leavitt look like a genius by comparison:
"I am looking forward to walking in and working for President Trump. This job is not about me, it's about him. His policies are the most effective, the most exciting. He's the most energetic, intense president we have ever seen. When I was there yesterday he showed me where the ballroom will be."
“People need to start giving him credit for his multifaceted approach and how he’s trying to bring down prices almost unilaterally all by himself.”
… Someone posted a clip of her in an earlier podcast: “The abortion pill has the same chemicals that they used in the extermination camps in Nazi Germany.”
… The clip received this fact check community note: “Nazi gas chambers used hydrogen cyanide (Zyklon B) and carbon monoxide. Abortion pills contain neither: mifepristone is a synthetic steroid that blocks progesterone, and misoprostol is a synthetic prostaglandin analog.”
… NBC correspondent Andrea Mitchell: “National Park Service is about to chop down up to 529 trees from municipal golf course Trump trying to take over telling federal judge they don’t contribute to the ‘historic landscape’. No arborist could possibly have said that. Or anyone who’s visited that park along the Potomac.”
… WaPo sportswriter Rick Maese posted video of trees being knocked down.
… The activist group Save East Potomac:
“What happened today was a blitzkrieg on a public park. A cherished DMV space. If you are not livid about the circumstances that led up to this and what exactly the Federal govt did in the past 24 hours I don’t know what to tell you. Let’s do a quick timeline:
Last night, a Friday before a long weekend, at 5PM, government lawyers filed a notice that tree cutting would begin in earnest today. The stated reason was a pretext - apparently fulfilling a 2019 Cultural Landscape Review on East Potomac. This was clearly an excuse to bring the gangs in. For months the govt has stated there is no plan, nothing has been decided, going to follow the law. Ya, right.
At 5:30AM this morning, 3-4 dozen workers assembled at East Potomac Park. The blitzkrieg began shortly thereafter. They were given clear orders to fell as many trees as possible. For hours, from 6AM until 4PM today, nothing but chainsaws. Healthy trees, old trees, all would come down. No clear estimate for the extent but at least 100 trees came down.
The devastation is apparent. Entire groves cleared. Not a single animal on the peninsula. Not a sound aside from the roar of chainsaws. Earth ripped to pieces.
Anybody that thinks it is acceptable to shred public lands to appeal to the vanity of the president needs their head examined.We have been sounding the alarm on this for months. For months we knew this day would come. Where the President would, under dubious legal pretexts, sic his goons on a beloved public space. This is not a local issue. This is fundamentally a question of if we the people own our public lands or the temporary resident of the WH does.”
… Politico: “DHS intends to stop airing taxpayer-funded campaign-style ads glorifying Trump on Sunday, saying there are ‘no plans’ to add onto the $20 million buy from the Customs and Border Patrol account.
… In a late-night court filing, DOJ sidestepped questions about the legality of the ads - and whether they run afoul of restrictions on using taxpayer funds for political advantage - but urged a federal judge to reject efforts to order a halt to the ads. They’ll be expiring anyway, Trump admin lawyers said.
… The ads drew bipartisan condemnation for their overtly political tenor, mirroring Trump 2024 campaign ads but indicating they were paid for by the US govt. The DNC and Common Cause filed separate lawsuits seeking to stop the ads.
… According to the CBP official, Holly Mehringer, the agency issued a $20 million purchase order to LMD Agency on Sept. 20 under ‘a previously awarded blanket agreement.’ About $19 million of the total has been spent on a national ad campaign slated to run through Oct. 11 on Fox, CNN, MSNOW and Newsmax, as well as CBS, ABC and ESPN.
… Amid backlash over the ad campaign, Trump announced plans to end the taxpayer-funded ad buy and replace it with ads funded by his political committee MAGA, Inc. Trump, however, does not intend to reimburse the govt for the initial $20 million run.”
… NYT: “As the US ambassador to Greece, Kimberly Guilfoyle has cultivated a highly visible profile, attending late-night parties and appearing on the cover of Vogue Greece. Lately, however, she has drawn a different kind of attention from Greeks.
… Revelations this week that a Republican donor said Guilfoyle asked him to pay her American Express bill in exchange for access to senior Trump admin officials were the latest allegations of hardball tactics or outright misconduct to emerge against her.
… Greeks interviewed in Athens in recent days expressed exasperation and cynicism about the steady drip of reports about Guilfoyle’s dealings, and some said they saw them as signs of what smaller countries are forced to endure from larger, wealthier nations.”
… Rep. Robert Garcia, Ranking Member of the House Oversight Committee told Ben Meiselas that Kim Guilfoyle has been added to his list of investigations if Democrats take the House: “I think it’s also just emblematic of probably what is likely happening in so many other parts of the govt. People are engaged in massive corruption.”
… Mike Pence followed me on X today. He only follows 77 other people so this was pretty unusual. I guess the reason is probably I have been posting a lot about Ukraine over the weekend and he at least agrees with me about that. Also, his longtime chief of staff Marc Short has followed me since right after J6 since I reported on a lot of the henchmen’s activities back then.
… WH Chief of Staff Susie Wiles has been following me since the 2024 campaign. She also follows very few people. I like knowing that they read the things I’m posting, because I’m sure they disagree with the vast majority of it but everything I post is factual and documented.






Zelenskyy … it’s time to do what you know needs doing. And take out EVERY refinery in Russia. Blow them to hell.
Russia, Russia, Russia is not a hoax.
