#Qatar Bribes #Trump with a Boeing 747 and gets a military base in Idaho.

In Trump’s world, the U.S. is for sale to the highest bidder. Taxpayers will be paying about $1 billion to retrofit the 747 for Trump's personal use for his presidential library.

We get foreign planes flying over our houses.

Palmer Report @palmerreport.com · 21h

Pam Bondi is leaking to the media that she wasn’t even aware the DOJ had indicted Letitia James until it happened. Bondi is clearly trying to insulate herself from the criminal liability involved in false prosecution. But she’s also admitting she has no control over her own DOJ.

Today, as the government shutdown persists, the Trump administration has started to fulfill its long-held promise to lay off federal workers.

The man behind all this chaos? Russ Vought, the “grim reaper” of government cuts, who @isabelaalhadeff.bsky.social profiled back in 2024:

The bureaucrat who could make Trump's authoritarian dreams real

Russ Vought has a plan to take presidential power to new heights.

Federal health employees are being fired as the White House makes good on a promise to terminate federal employees en masse as the second week of the government shutdown drags to a close.

An HHS spokesperson on Friday confirmed to STAT that the firings, known as reductions in force, had hit the department, but did not specify which agencies were affected.

It's the daily terrorist notifications from the White House that get to you- nothing positive or life affirming- nothing but terror, hate, firings, attacks...I don't get what they are trying to accomplish, short of destroying the GOP altogether.

Among the long list of political adversaries President Trump has targeted in his second term are several Black women in powerful positions. Attorney General Letitia James of New York, who brought a civil case against Trump and won, is the latest.

Letitia James Is Among Prominent Black Women Targeted by Trump

Fani T. Willis, a district attorney who brought election interference charges against Mr. Trump, and Lisa Cook, who serves on the Federal Reserve Board, have also been investigated.

Over 19,500 Ukrainian children have been kidnapped by Russia, according to Ukrainian authorities. Look it up as I did. She got 8 kids back, and I am happy they are with their families, but I think its just publicity for Melania's movie about Melania that hits theaters in January 2026.
