Wouldn't it be easier & far less time consuming to just report when he actually tells the truth?
Iran is now publicly talking about what I’ve been saying since this war started: They’re trying to Jimmy Carter him, and he’s letting it happen while telling everyone he’s winning.
As the grandson of Kansas wheat farmers, let me offer my careful opinion -- this is not good.
DaleThe USDA is projecting the wheat harvest to be cut by almost half in the US. The state of Kansas is the largest producer of wheat and it is projected to harvest 44% less than from 2025. The American Farm Bureau sees a continued increase of Chapter 12 bankruptcies from 2025 as well.

SAMMY DAVIS JR. tearing it up on the Drums and Vibraphone in 1963. He was quite simply, a phenomenon.
Richard Nixon was never arrested for his crimes, but his Attorney General John Mitchell was—for helping Nixon cover them up. Have fun with the next administration, Todd Blanche!
I hope we will be able to take it back. But, on a daily basis, I grow more discouraged.
This by CNN is genuinely reprehensible. Everyone involved should be embarrassed. -The 'new pain' case vs Mamdani is *solely* his religion. -He was in NYC on 9/11, at grade school -Soon after attack GWB himself gave famous speech warning against blaming all Muslims for terrorism -25 yrs later, this.
CNNTwenty-five years after the mayor of New York City became the champion of America's grief and resilience at the time of the 9/11 attacks, families of those killed are split on whether the current mayor should attend the annual remembrance. https://cnn.it/4zkKYdc
MSNow: President Trump is also pushing so that his family is immune from audits. It looks like it may go forward. Trump Voter: No. Fuck that. No! How does he get to do that and we don’t?
