Trump's Kennedy Center Presser Was an Absolute DisasterFrom defending Russian hacking to bragging about grass, Trump’s latest press conference was an incoherent authoritarian mess.Donald Trump just held what was supposed to be an announcement about the Kennedy Center Honors, and somehow turned it into a free-flowing disaster of self-aggrandizement, foreign policy blunders, and incoherent tangents. I watched so you don’t have to. But let me fill you in. Picture this: Trump flanked by two women in evening gowns, talking about award nominees… and then casually saying he’s fine with Russia hacking U.S. infrastructure because “that’s just what Russia does.” He even admitted he couldn’t convince Putin to stop bombing civilians in Ukraine and still called it “Biden’s war.” That’s not leadership. That’s pathetic. That’s enabling a war criminal. The event ping-ponged from the absurd to the dangerous. Trump bragged that he decides Kennedy Center honorees based on whether they’re “woke,” ranted about the “Russia hoax” and Hillary Clinton, threatened long-term federal takeovers of Washington, D.C. without Congress, and threw in attacks on the Federal Reserve chair and Elizabeth Warren for good measure. At one point, he went on about redecorating the Fed building with “the most magnificent silk wallpaper,” bragged about his name on the Hollywood Walk of Fame, and promised to “redo the grass” in D.C. using his golf course expertise. He then proceeded to ramble incoherently about grass. It was weird. In between, he claimed America is taking in “trillions” from tariffs — which is a flat-out lie — and bizarrely said foreign countries took advantage of us “like children.” An unfortunate choice of words from Epstein’s former best friend. A quick aside while you are here: I’d love to highlight one of our favorite sponsors who has gone above and beyond to help this network grow—and has allowed us to bring you this video ad-free.

Back to my report. This was authoritarian theater wrapped in delusion. Trump openly talked about bypassing Congress to extend his D.C. National Guard deployment, turning cultural awards into political loyalty tests, and rewriting history to frame himself as the perpetual victim. And all of it, every last bit, was drenched in the same self-obsession and grievance-soaked paranoia that defined his presidency. We’re going to keep exposing it all.

Does anyone remember?
Reality Winner, who leaked intelligence on Russian election interference, released from prison
Reality Winner, a former Air Force linguist who pleaded guilty in 2018 to leaking an intelligence report about Russian interference in the 2016 election, has been released from prison, her attorney said.
“I am thrilled to announce that Reality Winner has been released from prison,” Alison Grinter Allen wrote in a post on Twitter. “She is still in custody in the residential reentry process, but we are relieved and hopeful.”
Winner’s case was an early example of the tough approach that President Donald Trump’s administration took toward those accused of leaking confidential government information.
excerpt:
Winner, now 29, was 25 at the time that she printed out a classified intelligence report at the National Security Agency facility in Georgia where she worked and provided it to journalists at the investigative news outlet The Intercept.
A story based on Winner’s leak was published on June 5, 2017, with the headline: “TOP-SECRET NSA REPORT DETAILS RUSSIAN HACKING EFFORT DAYS BEFORE 2016 ELECTION.”
“Russian military intelligence executed a cyberattack on at least one U.S. voting software supplier and sent spear-phishing emails to more than 100 local election officials just days before last November’s presidential election, according to a highly classified intelligence report obtained by The Intercept,” said the article, written by journalists Matthew Cole, Richard Esposito, Sam Biddle and Ryan Grim.

Remember the DRUMBEATS of WAR prior to invading & occupy IRAQ & a corrupt dictator the U.S. supported? International media discredited ALL of the U.S. claims yet the U.S. invaded... remember who revealed a SECRET U.S. AGENT in retaliation to her husband JOE WILSON speaking out against invading IRAQ?
VALERIE PLAME'S contacts were likely killed as a consequence.
