The primary long-term foreign policy goal of Putin for decades has been to separate the US from a united Europe militarily, economically, & diplomatically, breaking up NATO in the process. This Trump admin is what he’s been waiting for, but he would love a Vance admin even more.

The Epstein Files: The Biggest Political Coverup in Modern History
The DOJ just scrubbed 16 Epstein files from its website, including a photo of Donald Trump, intensifying concerns that Trump is actively trying - & failing - to protect pedophiles.

Something I mentioned to @atrupar.com is how Johnson will say he's too "busy" to read *the president's* tweets or statements, while actual VP JD Vance will rage post in response to journalists and relatively minor liberal influencers. Either Johnson can't multitask or Vance doesn't have a real job.
The fact that not a single reporter tells Mike Johnson “let me read it for you” or “here it is” when he claims he hasn’t seen or doesn’t know a thing about the psychotic ramblings of the head of state is not only a dereliction of journalistic duty, but a display of pure cowardice.

You've been hit by a car and you're fading in and out. You ask the EMTs to price the ambulance ride. You get to the ER and tell the docs you'll need a price on each service before it's done. You get cancer so it's time to put treament out to competitive bid. I can keep going...
