Trump lied about Venezuela and fentanyl.
DEA data makes that crystal clear. Why push the lie? Because he needed an excuse to plant warships near the Orinoco Mining Arc; one of the richest mineral zones on Earth. This is a mineral war dressed up as a drug war.

Trump’s Venezuela “fentanyl war” doesn’t match DEA data. The real fight is over minerals; Orinoco gold, coltan, rare earths, and Trump Jr.’s rare-earth bets sit right in that blast radius. New exposé is up.

Trump ran on “Make America Affordable Again.”
Now he’s calling affordability a hoax; while prices spike, inflation climbs, and his “Big Beautiful Bill” is set to double insurance premiums in 2026. This is gaslighting on a national scale.
Affordability isn’t the hoax.
He is.

Juan Orlando Hernández pushed ZEDE laws that gave investors quasi-sovereign enclaves on Roatán, shielded oligarchs whose estates hosted cocaine flights, and presided while the Bay Islands became a magnet for child sex tourism and gang-controlled exploitation.

Trump’s “majority” is a collapsing hull. Republicans are fleeing Congress, Tennessee swung 13 points away from MAGA, and insiders are saying the quiet part: Johnson won’t keep the gavel and the House may flip before 2026. tinyurl.com/Trumps-sinki...

Pam Bondi’s hearing wasn’t testimony. It was Trump’s loyalty ritual dressed up as oversight. She wasn’t serving justice, she was kissing Trump’s ass.

I wish I had hope for gun control and that I could believe “political violence has no place in this country”.

But we live in a country that accepts white children being massacred by gun violence.

Not just accepts, but worships violence.
