The Trump family is chasing another real estate deal in Saudi Arabia.
And the Saudis want a mutual defense agreement and access to U.S. nuclear technology.
Looks like Trump and the royal family will both win, with our national security for sale. The only losers? The American people.

All parked off the coast of Venezuela and Trump won’t rule out starting a new war. Time for Congress to step up.

New poll: Democrats lead the 2026 House generic ballot, and their edge widens when voters are reminded Republicans control Congress
Plus: Voters see both parties as out of touch, but for different reasons; Trump hits new low on pocketbook issues; Large majorities oppose ending ACA subsidies and SNAP, support taxing high earners
