Meanwhile in Russia: state TV host Vladimir Solovyov and his guests insisted that Ukraine should not be allowed to exist, "If there is no Ukraine, there is no problem." Solovyov's main concern was how to control and "reeducate" millions of Ukrainians.

Trump keeps admitting in public that he's directly running all DOJ operations—which would include deciding to keep the Epstein Files hidden to protect himself—and media keeps pretending not to hear him. Here, he states unambiguously that he *personally decides* on all DOJ payouts to alleged victims:

a functional press would, every single day, repeatedly, across numerous paragraphs in every story about him, make it clear that this is indisputably the most corrupt President in U.S. history

Ex-GOP Miles Bruner details how he
• worked for the GOP,
• found Trump too extreme,
• feared leaving,
• quit, and now
• urges others to quit.

Miles’ message might resonate with those who consider leaving the GOP:
My Last Day as an Accomplice of the Republican Party
Why I’m leaving the GOP and why I’m urging my former colleagues to do the same.

Trump desperately wants the fighting to stop for his own benefit. Ukraine has agreed to a ceasefire. Russia will not because it believes Trump is weak. Russia is right. Unfortunately www.axios.com/2025/10/21/t...
In a shift, White House says no plan for Trump-Putin summit
It's an acknowledgment that the gulf between Russia and Ukraine is too wide to reach a deal.

"Neither — inexplicably — did Joe Biden's attorney general, Merrick Garland,"

#MerrickGarland is a traitorous POS who will go down in history with the likes of Benedict Arnold, Robert Hansen and Joe McCarthy.

What, if anything, did the No Kings protests accomplish?

I've seen that pop up in everything from genuine inquiry to sneering dismissal. For anyone asking or facing that question, here's an answer.

Everything isn't all fixed, of course. But the protests accomplished at least these seven things:

The silver lining is the Professor still has his faculty job, but this is explicitly viewpoint discrimination, a message that there is no such thing as faculty governance.
All admin must be aligned with a political party. For all the talk of leftist indoctrination, this is no different from China.
Univ. of Texas professor was dismissed from an administrative post overseeing university academic affairs because of ideological differences. Texas is targeting professors who are more focused on pushing leftist ideologies rather than preparing students to lead our nation. We must end indoctrination and return to education fundamentals at all levels of education.

This is the asymmetry in our politics and media. If this was the other way around, Biden had pardoned someone then charged with trying to kill Trump, it would be the biggest story in America and every Republican commentator, congressman, news outlet, would be screaming about it in unison.

The fact that mainstream media is now completely in the tank for fascist oligarchs means there protests are more important than ever.

People need to be reminded, regularly, how unpopular the MAGA regime is and how utterly unprecedented the danger is.

We need to have these on a regular basis.

This is the East Wing of the White House that Trump is having demolished to build his gaudy Mar a Lago style ballroom.
A large, gray Volvo excavator with a pincer claw tears into the side of a white building, actively demolishing it and sending dust and debris into the air. The building, which appears to be the West Wing, is partially collapsed, with a large pile of rubble on the muddy ground. Several construction workers in yellow safety vests are on the site, and the main, undamaged White House residence is visible in the background.
