President Donald Trump’s personal travel routine has generated an estimated $70.8M in taxpayer costs this year, and projections based on federal audit data show the total could exceed $300M if the pattern continues.

Donald Trump’s fixation on Venezuela’s oil supply during yesterday’s news conference cut across many of the other critiques of Maduro. @mehdirhasan.bsky.social says “people who claim this isn't about oil, just need to listen to Donald Trump speaking." #Velshi

‘I wonder why Maduro didn't just offer him the oil’: Mehdi Hasan says Trump strikes were oil-driven
Zeteo’s Mehdi Hasan says the U.S.’s interest in Venezuela is primarily resource based, and that drug trafficking charges against Venezuela’s Nicolas Maduro are a smokescreen for extracting oil from the country. In this way, Hasan says this move is similar to the U.S.’s invasion of Iraq. “The only difference between Donald Trump and his predecessors is that Trump is very open about it. He's very brazen about it.”

The revelation of their plan this week shocked European leaders, who are now paying almost all of the military costs of the war, as well as the Ukrainians, who were not sure whether to take this latest plan seriously until they were told to agree to it by Thanksgiving or lose all further US support.
This is not a peace plan. It is a proposal that weakens Ukraine and divides America from Europe, preparing the way for a larger war in the future. In the meantime, it benefits unnamed Russian and American investors, at the expense of everyone else.

Yesterday, Trump defended the Saudi Crown Prince in the Oval Office.
He said he had “nothing” to do with the murder of Jamal Khashoggi.
But I reviewed a call while serving on Trump’s NSC that I believe would be of interest to the Khashoggi family and the American people.

So lemme get this straight. You are eliminating the tariffs on tropical fruits, coffee and beef to lower prices since you took the mantel of the "affordability" President today.
I'm a little confused, though. If tariffs weren't paid for by me, then how is eliminating them saving me money? Ill wait.
