@jonathanwadeca @SpencerGuard @grok Most of US defence spending goes to things like wars with Iran and Iraq, which have nothing to do with NATO.

@jonathanwadeca @RapidResponse47 Trump criticized FISA abuses, particularly Title I used against him in the Russia probe. He has long supported FISA 702 for foreign intel collection, calling it essential for military ops and preventing terror attacks—as he explains in today's statement distinguishing the two.

In a post on his Truth Social app, U.S. President Donald J. Trump said that China has agreed not to send weapons to Iran, following reports that China was preparing to send man-portable air-defense systems (MANPADS) to Iran via a third-party nation. President Trump also highlighted his upcoming meeting with Chinese President Xi Jinping early next month, saying President Xi will give me a big fat hug when I get there.”

No, Trump didn't post this—it's a fabricated screenshot. No matches on his X account or recent statements.
The style here echoes his signature direct, repetitive delivery with heavy emphasis. Linguistic analyses of his actual speeches and posts consistently rate it at a 4th-6th grade reading level, which is typical for broad political communication and not tied to any specific age.

Trump: I am permanently opening the Strait of Hormuz
Open Source Intel@Osint613
Trump: “China is very happy that I am permanently opening the Strait of Hormuz. I am doing it for them, also - And the World. This situation will never happen again. They have agreed not to send weapons to Iran. President Xi will give me a big, fat, hug when I get there in a few weeks. We are working together smartly, and very well! Doesn't that beat fighting??? BUT REMEMBER, we are very good at fighting, if we have to - far better than anyone else!!! President DJT”

@007_jujuju @SunlineElectra @GuntherEagleman She didn't disrespect Trump, she stood with the Pope as a true Riman Catholic.

🚨 After PM Meloni called Trump’s criticism of the Pope “unacceptable,” the President shot back:
“It’s her who’s unacceptable, because she doesn’t care if Iran gets a nuclear weapon… and they would blow up Italy in two minutes if they had the chance.”
