Trump talks about the "land swapping" that he says will take place in ending the war in Ukraine. From the transcript of his press briefing yesterday, Trump talks about the "land swapping" that he says will take place in ending the war in Ukraine: We're going to change the lines, the battle lines. Russia's occupied a big portion of Ukraine. They've occupied some very prime territory. We're going to try and get some of that territory back for Ukraine. But they've taken some very prime territory. They've taken largely, in real estate we call it oceanfront property. The most powerful man in the world — attempting to manage what he's just called "by far the worst that's happened since World War II" — seems comfortable reverting to real-estate mogul mode. That's always the most valuable property. If you're on a lake, a river or an ocean, it's always the best property. Well, Ukraine, a lot of people don't know that Ukraine was largely a thousand miles of ocean. That's gone, other than one small area, Odessa, it's a small area. There's just a little bit of water left. So I'm going to go and see the parameters. Now, I may leave and say good luck, and that'll be the end. I may say this is not going to be settled. I mean, there are those that believe that Putin wanted all of Ukraine. I happen to be one of them, by the way. I think if it weren't for me, he would not be even talking to anybody else right now. But I'm going to meet with him. We're going to see what the parameters are, and then I'm going to call up President Zelensky and the European leaders. https://althouse.blogspot.com/2025/08/trump-talks-about-land-swapping-thats.html https://www.rev.com/transcripts/trump-details-crime-crackdown-for-d-c press conference transcript

Yep, Mamdani Will Be NYC’s Next Mayor by Stephen Green "Nice city you have here — it would be a shame if something were to happen to it." Something bad is about to happen to New York City. Maybe I'm wrong. I hope I'm wrong. The greatest city in the world deserves something better than a commie-racist/nepo-red-diaper-baby like Zohran Mamdani as its mayor. But recent news has me convinced that the commie-racist/nepo-red-diaper-baby will be the city's next mayor. President Donald Trump called Mamdani a "communist lunatic" back in June, and he isn't wrong. Every time some old social media post of the Democrat mayoral nominee resurfaces, he's boasting that "the end goal is seizing the means of production," complaining that capitalism is theft https://pjmedia.com/vodkapundit/2025/08/11/yep-mamdani-will-be-nycs-next-mayor-n4942590

The end of Joe's argument. (but he won't admit it) D.C. Police Union Backs Trump’s Move to Federalize City’s Police by Nick Gilbertson The Washington, DC, Police Union is backing President Donald Trump’s call to take federal control of Washington, DC, due to rampant crime. Gregg Pemberton, the chairman of the union, released a statement Monday afternoon on the heels of Trump’s executive action to federalize the Metropolitan Police Department. “We stand with the President in recognizing that Washington, DC, cannot continue on this trajectory. Crime is out of control, and our officers are stretched beyond their limits,”. “The federal intervention is a critical stopgap, but the MPD needs proper staffing and support to thrive,”. ‘This can only happen by repealing the disastrous policies that have driven out our best officers..” Terry Cole, Longtime DEA agent and the head of the Drug Enforcement Administration, will lead the federal takeover of the police department of Washington, DC https://www.breitbart.com/politics/2025/08/11/d-c-police-union-backs-trumps-move-federalize-citys-police/

"What an incredibly weak-ass attempt"

TRUE.

MAKE AMERICA HEALTHY AGAIN: Two more states look to ban junk food from SNAP benefits. South Carolina and Tennessee are looking to join a throng of states that have placed restrictions on what can be bought using Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP) benefits. https://www.msn.com/en-us/health/nutrition/two-more-states-look-to-ban-junk-food-from-snap-benefits/ar-AA1Kjtpn?ocid=BingNewsBrowse

This is why President Trump is taking over law enforcement in D.C. (and elsewhere). Democrats have proven -- time and again -- that they can't control crime.

Awwwwwww. Gene Wu Says Texas Dems Who Fled Democracy Are Suffering Financially and Mentally (for Their Cowardice) Warren Squire Wow, Democrat Texas Representative Gene Wu looks rough. He says he and his fellow Democrats are suffering since they chose to abandon democracy and flee to their billionaire friend JB Pritzker’s hotel in Chicago. Looks like running away from a vote on redistricting is taking its toll. Oh, well. https://twitchy.com/warren-squire/2025/08/11/gene-wu-msnbc-cry-for-help-were-holding-on-threats-n2417101

Why is it always the "truth-seekers" who suffer the most ?

You heartless people, going after those poor immigrants. (How am I supposed to exploit them for money now ?) HOLY SHLIT: Melissa Moorman, an employee of the Kentucky Transportation Cabinet (@KYTC), was FIRED after she blew the whistle on a scheme to give driver's licenses to illegal aliens at $200 each "under the table." Moorman says that the scheme would happen 4-5 times PER DAY at multiple branches across the state, totaling potentially THOUSANDS of invalid licenses. KYTC claims the licenses were issued "in error." After exposing the scheme, Moorman was fired. The KYTC also denied any public request for documentation, withholding nearly 2,300 records. This needs a full investigation now

I think that Nancy gets wrecked every night.
