The Arab nations thought their “pay for play” schemes with Trump would buy protection. Instead, they get thrown into war and get to watch his deranged social media posts as things spiral.

I live on the South Side of Chicago, and I can tell you that no one is asking for troops in our streets. What we need are resources, opportunities, and respect for our communities, not military occupation. @MeidasTouch

Jennifer Siebel Newsom: Well, there has historically been a war on women in our country. While we’ve made tremendous progress in terms of gender equity, we are increasingly seeing—especially with the current federal administration—a rollback of women’s rights.
So whether it’s investments in child care, investments in reproductive care, SNAP funding, ICE raids that have separated families, a dismissal of violence against women, a reduction in support for victims of sexual assault—there’s just a normalization that if something happens to women, it’s just part of being a woman, which is horrific.

Ryan: Hegseth has literally become more deranged than the SNL skits at this point. Each time he screws up, he gets more desperate—he screams louder.
He is fucking pathetic. He has the blood of thirteen Americans on his hands, and he needs to be held accountable for that.

Trump admin seems to be defaming @joekent16jan19

Senior officials in the Trump Administration tell Fox News that Joe Kent was “a known leaker” - and was cut out of intelligence briefings with President Trump months ago. Adding that he had not been part of any Iran planning discussions or briefings at all. An official says the White House also told the Director of National Intelligence Tulsi Gabbard that she should fire Kent for suspected leaks, but she never had him removed as Director of the National Counterterrorism Center (NCTC).

A surprisingly strong letter by James Comer to Trump AG Pam Bondi ordering her testimony on April 14. Reading between the lines, it seems she did not want to voluntarily cooperate with the House Oversight Committee.

The Chairman of the House Oversight Committee, Republican Rep. James Comer, has issued a subpoena to Attorney General Pam Bondi ordering her to testimony on the Justice Department’s handling of the investigation into convicted sex offender and trafficker Jeffrey Epstein on April 14, 2026.

Ben Meiselas on The MeidasTouch Podcast winning the iHeartPodcast Award:
“When we see injustice, we call it out with moral clarity. We’re not afraid to call out fascism when we see it. When we see ICE and Border Patrol on our streets killing our people, we call it out. When we see injustices happening internationally, we call them out.
We’re not afraid. We approach this with fearlessness, and we are inspired by all of you, by this community. Right now, more than ever, we need courage. We need to stick together. We need to fight for democracy, and we all need to lean on each other during these times.
Democracy will prevail. The truth will prevail.”

When Trump says he talked to a former President who says he wished he bombed Iran, what are the odds he’s talking about the 45th President?

This is Trump enjoying his golf club today as U.S. troops that he deployed to the Middle East remain in harm’s way.
Trump spent nearly 6 hours there. The White House called it his “Executive Time.”

This moment from February 2025 may go down as one of the most prescient exchanges in modern diplomatic history. Zelenskyy warned Trump that while the United States may feel protected by an ocean today, a time could come when America would need help in war. Trump scolded him instead. Perhaps he should have listened.
Zelenskyy: First of all, during the war, everybody has problems, even you. But you have nice ocean and don't feel now. But you will feel it in the future. God bless –
Trump: You don't know that. You don't know that. Don't tell us what we're going to feel. We're trying to solve a problem. Don't tell us what we're going to feel.
Zelenskyy: I'm not telling you. I am answering on these questions.
Trump: Because you're in no position to dictate that.
Vance: That's exactly what you're doing.
Trump: You are in no position to dictate what we're going to feel. We're going to feel very good.
