The diabolical Trumpf junta bribed TotalEnergies, a French energy company, to scuttle two offshore wind leases with nearly $928m in American taxpayer dollars. In exchange, TotalEnergies agreed to walk away from offshore wind, pledge not to develop any new offshore wind projects in the US, and invest hundreds of millions of dollars in oil and gas projects in Texas.
Trumpf's bribe screws Blue States and helps Red State Texas in this election year
Dummkopf Trumpf bleated that super-sycophantic Federal Housing Finance Agency Director Bill Pulte would become acting Director of National Intelligence (DNI). Pulte is stepping in to replace Hare Krishna cultist Tulsi Gabbard who resigned from her post last month after spending two years subverting the USIC. Though Trumpf sniveled his appointee "has deep experience managing the most sensitive matters in America," this lickspittle has ZERO relevant experience in the USIC. Pulte campaigned hard for this critical position by promising absolute fealty to Trumpf's sinister agenda of targeting his political enemies while undermining US national security.

Tensions in the Middle East heated up on Wednesday after Iran attacked Kuwait and Bahrain following the latest U.S. strikes against the Islamic Republic, further testing a fragile ceasefire as President Donald Trump said talks to end the war are progressing.
An Iranian attack damaged Kuwait's main airport, killing one and injuring more than 60 people, according to Kuwaiti authorities.
U.S. Central Command said American forces "successfully defeated" Iranian missile and drone attacks targeting Bahrain and civilian vessels in the Strait of Hormuz.
None of those attacks hit their targets, CENCOM said.

The psychosis of permanent war results, as it has in the U.S., in the curtailing of civil liberties and punishing economic austerity. Dissent is equated with treason. State power serves the dictates of empire rather than democracy, which devolves into farce, or in our case, a tawdry reality show.
The rollback of the New Deal, the closest we came to a social democracy, began in the mid-1940s. Cold War anti-communism and corporate opposition converged to make war on organized labor and the New Deal left.
This assault culminated in the Second Red Scare.

Jewish groups condemned Israeli cabinet ministers Bezalel Smotrich and Amichay Eliyahu for marching in the NYC Israel Day parade. In 2021, Smotrich said that Israel's first prime minister, David Ben-Gurion, should have "finished the job" and kicked all Arabs out of the country in 1948. Eliyahu had suggested that Israel drop a nuclear bomb on Palestinians in the Gaza Strip.

The Navy has named the seven defense firms who submitted their designs for the new medium unmanned surface vessel (MUSV) marketplace in April that will advance to the prototype testing phase.
Corruption is a term used to describe dishonest or fraudulent behavior by someone in power. When applied on a national scale, "corruption" refers to government leaders who abuse their power, take bribes, or commit fraud or other disreputable acts to increase their own wealth and/or power instead of helping the people they are meant to serve.
Corruption is an unfortunate reality in many nations around the world, especially low-income countries, developing countries, and least developed countries, which have fewer checks and balances on their rulers' powers.
While no single data indicator directly measures corruption in a nation, many indicators offer indirect-but-accurate evidence of the presence or absence of corruption.
The sounds "snap, crackle, pop" may be most associated with breakfast cereal, but on a mid-September afternoon in west-central Missouri, it was weeds in a soybean field that were getting crispy. The marestail snapped, the cockleburs crackled and the pigweeds popped as Ben Kroeger delivered 15,000 volts of weed-killing current to those that dared to rise above the crop canopy.

I want to tell you something about Donald Trump, and I don't believe I've ever said this before. Donald Trump has extreme intelligence - and I don't mean just high intelligence like someone in Mensa might have.
