I guess "farm package" means a bailout with taxpayer's money. A bailout that became necessary after a perfectly functioning industry was trashed by a senseless tariff war. And make no mistake, Republicans will finance that by cutting more healthcare and social services.

Both Trump and Lindbergh’s grandfathers fled their homelands, a step ahead of law enforcement, a factual inconvenience that their grandsons never mentioned in their campaigns against others fleeing similar dire circumstances.

It's ridiculous to ask him this. According to the Ukrainian constitution, agreeing to give up territory is forbidden and equivalent to turning against his country.

Do these evil Americans already know this? Probably, which makes this plan sinister.

Almost 100% of Trump's 2019 farmer bailout went to white men.

"non-Hispanic white operators received 99.4 percent of all MFP payments." Nearly all recipients were male.

Even Fox News has given up on spinning Trump's failing economy.

Prices are skyrocketing: groceries, utilities, rent, and even owning a car, with no signs of slowing down.

The truth is that Trump isn’t making life more affordable for working families, he’s making it impossible to survive.

Trump has published his National Security Strategy and has declared Europe as the biggest threat to The United States and pledged positive relations with Russia and other autocratic regimes around the world. Russia is celebrating Trump's betrayal of global democracy.

The calls from America this weekend to "abolish the EU" are for one simple reason: the EU is the only thing that can keep European nation-states from becoming Russian or American vassals.
