He got the Strait closed, disrupted the entire global economy, exploded gas prices, wrecked our alliances, killed thousands of innocent people including young girls at a school, depleted American missile stockpiles, degraded our Middle East military bases, and destroyed America’s global standing only to get the Strait reopened on Iran’s terms and potentially give them $20 billion. The art of the deal!

Senator Ron Johnson voted to let billionaires rape our beautiful boundary waters. Proving once again that he is a traitor to our country. Just when I think I can’t loathe this traitorous fucker anymore than I do, he pulls this shit. Fuck Ron Johnson. Fuck him forever.

Fact: Ya know that billionaire from Chile who Republicans voted to let him rape our boundary waters? Guess who lived in his DC mansion during the rapists first term? Jared and Ivanka. Shady as fuck🤬

Take a good look folks. These are the Minnesota boundary waters. Every Republican senator voted to allow a Chilean billionaire to mine it. The minerals will go to China. This truly enrages me. It should you as well. Fuck, and I mean fuck… The @GOP 🖕

BREAKING: Germany, France, Britain and Italy just held an emergency joint press conference in Paris after 40 countries met over the Strait of Hormuz. German Chancellor Merz: "This war must not become a transatlantic stress test." Germany is now prepared to deploy the Bundeswehr to the Strait of Hormuz for mine clearance and maritime reconnaissance. 40 countries. Emergency meeting. Military deployment on the table.

STUBB: I think, at the end of the day, United States will find themselves in quite a lonely place. I'm most pro-American president in Europe. I'm avid transatlanticist. I want relationship to work. But I also fully realize that, with certain patterns of behavior, there's going to be a feeling of, "Okay, if you treat me like that, I don't feel very good about it." We can see that with European states, Gulf states and many others. I hope that it's in interest of United States to have close friends and allies, if it wants to continue to be one of the world's hegemons.

There’s bins full of shredded documents outside the ministry of foreign affairs in Budapest because the government handover became a crime scene this week. Lots of Orban’s circle will be fleeing to Moscow.

Trump: "The U.S.A. will get all Nuclear 'Dust,' created by our great B2 Bombers - No money will exchange hands in any way, shape, or form. This deal is in no way subject to Lebanon, either, but the USA will, separately, work with Lebanon, and deal with the Hezboolah situation in an appropriate manner. Israel will not be bombing Lebanon any longer. They are PROHIBITED from doing so by the U.S.A. Enough is enough!!! Thank you! President DJT"

The subtext of this tweet - and of these appointments - is that RFK, Jr. is done. Trump may keep him around to placate MAHA, but he is not shaping medical policy anymore. Tells you that Trump recognized that antivaxxism and general medical crankery are not political winners.

We are receiving increasing reports of large-scale document destruction from various ministries, affiliated institutions, and companies close to Fidesz.

Sean Hannity cheated on his wife with Ainsley Earhardt, but please lecture the pope about the meaning of the Bible.

Osallistuin virtuaalikokoukseen Hormuzinsalmen tilanteesta ja merenkulun vapaudesta. Kiitos @EmmanuelMacron ja @Keir_Starmer kokouksen koolle kutsumisesta. Neljännes maailman maista keskusteli siitä, mitä voimme tehdä tilanteen ratkaisemiseksi. Suomi on valmis yhteistyöhön sellaisissa ratkaisuissa, jotka tuovat alueelle vakautta ja kunnioittavat kansainvälistä oikeutta. Iranin ilmoitus salmen avaamisesta on positiivinen merkki. Kestävät ratkaisut vaativat diplomatiaa.

It’s never been more obvious as he attempts to speed read this script someone wrote for him that he can’t stand the affordability subject and doesn’t even want to do this event because he is completely disconnected from the lives of average Americans and couldn’t care less.

Trump is reportedly negotiating a deal which would stop Iran from producing a nuclear weapon in exchange for $20 Billion in Iranian assets being unfrozen. Note that The Iranian Nuclear agreement (JCPOA) that Obama signed, that Trump tore up, did the same thing. It halted their Uranium enrichment while turning over frozen assets. In other words Trump Tore up the agreement, spent $55 Billion on a war, got hundreds of Americans injured, killed 150+ kids and exploded oil prices to try and negotiate the same basic deal that Obama did.

Trump: "It’s easy! Tucker is a Low IQ person - Always easy to beat, and highly overrated!!! So are Megyn Kelly, 'Candace'(Really Dumb and mentally ill!), and Bankrupt Alex Jones, who is completely 'fried.' There are others, also! Then we have some that are VERY GOOD, true MAGA all the way, and smart. I should do a list of good, bad, and somewhere in the middle. Wouldn’t that be fascinating??? President DJT"

I’ve spent my entire career in national security. Something extremely serious is happening. The White House and Congress need to put politics aside — and investigate these deaths & disappearances aggressively.

Heartbreaking description of the pointless, thoughtless damage being done to the Kennedy Center. It was such an important part of life in Washington, and is now being destroyed for no reason theatlantic.com/culture/2026/0…

🚨 SCOOP: The U.S. and Iran are negotiating over a three-page plan to end the war, with one element under discussion being that the U.S. would release $20 billion in frozen Iranian funds in return for Iran giving up its stockpile of enriched uranium. axios.com/2026/04/17/ira…

Voting on spy powers at 2am will definitely help with trust in the government!

This rule is losing after Johnson just lost on a proposed 5-year FISA extension. Once this rule, the House will recess. I don’t know what happens next. Johnson just rolled the dice & lost
