The Dictator King

The legislature has the right/power to remove Cabinet Agencies. We saw the creation of a Cabinet position after September 11, 2001 with Homeland Security. Every Cabinet position is created by Congress and Congress can dissolve them. So, I disagree with Associate Justice Kagan that nothing can be done to reign in the runaway Executive Branch. The Cabinet can be altered very easily when the legislature agrees about abuse of power and/or the reorganization of the Cabinet to reign in abuse of power as we are witnessing with Trump.

I dearly appreciate Justice Kagan’s approach and dissertation at the bench. Thank you. The clarity to the people is necessary.

Another approach which Congress is awakening to is impeachment of Cabinet officers. It is a beginning.

This is a State’s Rights issue.

This is speculation but I think Elon Musk is up to no good and Trump is authorizing it. This is not the first time Trump has acted in the best interest of Musk. Musk has a real problem with the ideas of “Open AI” and others. Musk wants control over AI. Why? What is he up to? 

But, artificial intelligence is far too dangerous to play games with it. The safety and wealth of California’s industries is that of California, not the federal government with a president that wants control over everything within the borders of the USA.

Trump is also attempting to carrying out control over media. It is his oligarchs, ie: Ellison, that’s bending the knee to their king. It is about consolidating wealth and power. It has to stop.

The Emollient Clause is being ignored as a LAW that can bring scrutiny to Trump’s executive order. While monetary abuse of the office of the president is obvious, there is also the wealth of the electorate. Trump’s actions carry all sorts of racketeering and his obsession with an American oligarchy should be drawing attention to the electorate. Being loyal to Trump while benefitting from it is corruption plain and simple. 

Donald Trump is not trustworthy to be an overseer of the First Amendment in this country. He needs to be hands off and he continues to focus on control to end the First Amendment.

There is more than one way to undermine the USA Constitution and the Rule of Law. Defunding healthcare without viable and equitable alternatives is as much an attack on the Constitution as any direct coup. This is his methodology, work (crime) craft, or chosen path in violation of an oath of office he openly disdained during his inauguration.

Illegal orders? Venezuelans? This is just the beginning. Everyone involved has legal problems including Trump. Illegal orders are not within the legal definition of the president’s job description. 

Every Senator that spoke out has the legal obligation to warn their constituents about legal pitfalls when in service to this country. 

Nome is Secretary of Homeland Insecurity. A shop owner barred ICE from entering his shop and has a legal right to do so. Some states and Governors are drawing up regulations on the appropriate mission of ICE within their state’s borders.

Republicans insist on private industry for everything.

The Republicans need to stop belly aching and find solutions for healthcare in a country where magnificent citizens deserve it.

Thank you for including NATO in the defense bill. If nothing else is perfect in the defense spending bill, that is. Our allies are extremely important and I am proud of them and the support we bring to them.

Our development of our military over modern decades is an amazing achievement with the help of institutions like MIT and manufactures seeking perfection. Our allies need us and that is a good thing. Thank you.

One other aspect of healthcare is the importance of REGULATION in PROFITS. Healthcare is a part of the economic vitality of this country. I remind a CEO was stalked because of abuse of the privatized healthcare industry. Considering the volatility of privatized healthcare in the USA, I really don’t see government standing down in handling it. Good luck. A nation is looking on.

Every legislator needs to take ownership of this problem. Enough of the politics.

N for narcan

All over this great country we are defeating drug overdose. Sure it costs money, but , we save lives. 

There are all sorts of efforts to save lives in the USA. People around the world recognize the greatness of this country in the love of life our people carry out for each other. Complete strangers act to save lives and return people to mental health. 

The war on drugs is conducted at our borders, in our cities, in free mental health clinics, in our newspapers, and in our classrooms.

Our police and courts level power at criminals and it works. These dispensers of narcan come in many forms including Main Street businesses displaying a simple letter N in their window. The merchant has a supply. Imagine that. A shoe store, boutique, barber shop, and movie theaters all displaying a simple letter N in their window because there is narcan nose spray inside to save lives. That is incredible.

That is America. Those are the people of America. There is no stigma attached to any business, or people. Just a simple way forward for poisoned addicts. That act of compassion for another human being is sometimes the first time an addict receives caring. 

We are a great people. We don’t value killing of any kind. We value life and the quality of that life. 

Assassination

Currently Maduro has control of the Venezuelan military. He instills fear into people because it is a brutal regime. Venezuelans seek asylum from him in the USA. They are refugees. 

Maduro can be stated as the de facto leader of Venezuela. The military ensures his place right now. 

It could be said there are two presidents in Venezuela. One cannot ignore who exactly holds power and won’t relinquish it to a freely elected person. 

In that is the reality of USA law that states there will be no assassinations of anyone leading a country. Trump is openly threatening Maduro’s life. He states Maduro’s days are numbered. That translates into a death threat. It is illegal. Trump is breaking the law.

The USA Congress has not declared war on Venezuela. The USA Congress cannot order the assassination of anyone. When Saddam was captured it was on Iraqi soil, he stood trail in Iraq, and it was there he was sentenced.

Trump’s open threats are more of the same killing we are witnessing with the extrajudicial deaths of more than 80 people on speed boats SUPPOSEDLY carrying drugs the USA has as controlled substances.

Supposedly these dead people are on a list of some kind. That list is probably a sanction list and/or a no fly list. There is no way they are on an official list for assassination. The USA has “The Ten Most Wanted,” etc. That list of very dangerous people is not about assassination. It is about capture and justice.

So all this killing is way outside standard USA law. Unless there was a declaration of war and the people on the boats initiated confrontations they should still be alive. As a demonstration of that, the USA Coast Guard just carried out a record setting drug bust at sea.

Yeah, yeah, I know; who’s side am

I on? The Rule of Law and humanity. There are no bad guys to assassinate. There are criminals to catch. 

The issues in the Caribbean Sea are out of control.

Why the military is even taking orders from these bastards is nothing I can understand or imagine. This is not the way the USA does things. From what can tell these actions are based in hate, with an Admiral requiring lawyers to understand the orders he is receiving. It is all bullshit.

Seahorse and The Skipper

“The Skipper,” is the seized tanker. 

There needs to be proof this was a sanctioned tanker. Oil tankers aren’t explicitly stated in the law. If the ships are specifically named there may be some leverage.

The United Nations Security Council needs to convene. This is more than seizing sanctioned ships. Trump has made direct threats to Maduro.

The proceedings at the Supreme Court are astonishingly.

I have to dig a little further, but, what Trump is attempting is to find case law and build in it to eliminate the needs for the federal legislature and judiciary. Basically, Yrump is hoping the Supreme Court wants him as king and will make it so. What Trump is attempting is completely unconstitutional from where I sit and it furthers the treason he has begun. It is stunning. 

$10 billion giveaway

Who receives Trump’s $10 billion crop insurance giveaways, corporate America?

What is being done with the crops? USAID?

Commodity prices will be adversely affected for years to come if the actual crops remain in storage than used.

The actual crops still exist. It isn’t as though the government is buying crops once purchased by China. Trump is giving money away to compensate his use of tariffs. That is a one year relief for crops currently in storage. Those crops will still be in storage effecting commodity prices going forward. 

With an excess of grain going forward the loss of farmer revenue will continue until American grain is consumed. The actual crops should be donated to needy people in the world so commodity prices return to normal today and in the future. 

The Big Lie

 Trump insists on changing history and make The Big Lie a fact. Trump did not win the 2020 elections. Trump insisting he did is becoming an issue.

The provision by Stefanick attached to the NDAA is in recognition of Trump’s Big Lie being the truth. It is a lot of mischief, but, like the pipe bomber, The Big Lie is a problem. The continued propaganda by Trump of the 2020 election is creating reasons to compromise laws that work.

FBI investigations work. In the case of conducting an investigation there is a FISA Court. Transparency would compromise the FISA Court. What would result is a cover-up of the facts.

The FBI investigations of Trump and Russia was a valid investigation. The fact it was interrupted by the DOJ clearly illustrates how the country is definitely compromised in addition indicting the bad guys. If the Trump-Russia investigation was concluded rather than bing swept under the rug, Trump would not be president today.

NDAA

There is a provision about the FBI that needs to be pulled from the NDAA. 

I would expect a fair amount of corruption with the Republican Congress, like the million dollar payout for no reason. The Republicans have included a provision in the NDAA they are calling transparency, but, it is actually interference with Homeland Security.

The USA military members vote, but, do not interfere with elections. In the 2026 NDAA there is censorship of the FBI. The provision states when the FBI opens an investigation into a candidate running for office it is required to notify the Senate, House, and Judiciary. I find this intrusive and will taint the operations of the FBI. There is no capacity with the military for the FBI. The military has its own investigation force. Therefore, the provision by Stefanick doesn’t belong in the NDAA. 

No one should be interfering with an FBI investigation anyway. The information is confidential. Such interference from Congress of an investigation of a candidate for office would compromise the investigation. It is a very strange provision that interferes and compromises the rule of law and due process.

Congratulations Kash Patel.

Donald Trump is a scared man. According to Pam Bondi Trump gave his administration an order to make Washington, DC safe enough for a child to walk safely from one boundary to the other.

That is not a realistic order. But, in acting according to Trump’s wishes Patel set out to make the boss happy. What could be better than to stick a finger into previous administrations’ eye and find the attempted terrorist that would seek to blow up party headquarters with a pipe bomb. 

Patel found the evidence in the case fill that has been ongoing and solved it. He took the existing evidence to the next level. He done good.

(Click here)

The man who believes the conspiracy theories back then, still does today. He believes in Trump. But, what he portrays is very worrisome. A man able to believe “The Big Lie” and willing to act violently because of it.

This is where Trump’s politics blurs reality and he thinks it’s just fine because it serves his purpose.

According to many on the Supreme Court an extreme amount of cases they hear are politics. The truth doesn’t matter in those cases because politics can be based in lies. The final goal in politics is to accumulate power even with highly unethical practices like gerrymandering. So, the fact that “The Big Lie” exists is just great politics. 

According to Trump life is a game where the wealthiest thrive while everyone else just didn’t live right. Oops, to bad.

So, while Kash Patel is going about life making DC safe for Trump he also proved how “The Big Lie” actually existed in the hearts and minds of people like Brian Cole, Jr. The Big Lie was so big it drove fear through Brian and he did what any honorable American would do; act against the perpetrators.

Setting up pipe bombs is simply illegal and wrong. For that Brian Coke will be going to prison. 

Got that?

Brian’s actions were based in a lie and now he is facing prison. He believed a lie and he is paying for it. 

I don’t know how life got twisted around like that for Brian, but, I think it is pretty lousy.

Why is Putin expecting Trump to deliver?

Because the alternative is unthinkable.

Putin won’t surrender.

The ideology is more important than any Russian speaking people. This is Putin’s destiny. 

To Trump, Putin is in the club of the powerful that know what is best for the world. Vladimir is just a good ole boy. Vladimir does not consider himself a good ole boy. He expects Trump and his minions to take orders and deliver. 

“I like to win.” It is far easier for the USA military to take on drug cartels with half subs than face the fact the USA’s real enemy have real subs.

Validated

Americans know what is happening. 

Vladimir Putin is waiting. Putin is willing to entertain Trump and his minions because he anticipates Trump delivering. The talks aren’t about peace, it is about surrender and Putin thinks he is playing his part.

The Caribbean is Trump’s change in focus for the USA military. It has nothing to do with national security and allies. It is about abandonment. Trump wants to abandon all that makes the USA great to dominate the Western Hemisphere. Not a country, not a continent, a hemisphere. It can’t be done. He can’t buy Argentina. It is impossible to do what Trump is seeking to do. It is delusional.

If Trump is able to move the focus of the USA military to the Western Hemisphere then he can abandon the East to the communists, including Europe. Donald John Trump is unable to live up to the real mission of the USA, so he abandons it.

All this is inappropriate.

Intelligence is not law. Drug runners headed to Suriname is not a threat to USA. I believe the Admiral was carrying out some kind of order, but, unless Suriname asked for assistance in alliance with USA there was no reason at all to destroy the boat or kill people on it.

The Admiral is not a stupid man, where is the permission to carry out this TASK of an enormous Navy presence come from? Believing there is danger to the USA is not a legal capacity to define this mission. Intelligence is just that. It is a good lead, but, any activity by the military has to be based in fact as well. If we are to believe there were two boats then the mission included both vessels and the cargo, not simply an estimation.

Someone is really screwing up. Who is it? 

Americans don’t deploy a full aircraft carrier strike group to stop speed boats. That is over kill. It is no different than deploying the National Guard or military to carry out arrests and policing. It is not proper use of those assets. It creates danger otherwise not present.

In urban warfare, Former President Obama made the kill order. No one else. The intelligence was given to him and the order issued by him personally was carried out. When Osama bin Laden meet the USA military and his capture and death, Firmer President Obama was in the Situation Room observing every detail on camera and when a helicopter failed to carry our troops and the evidence of their mission. One helicopter would have to do, but, if the mission required different assets Obama was present to see it through. This mess in the Caribbean is completely inappropriate. Very messy.

Americans need a deeper understanding of their military.

Military studies 101:

Two basic concepts, calculated risk and overwhelming potential.

The great Late Secretary of State Colin Powell was right. He is the best model for American soldiers facing danger, combat, or death. 

Powell got it right. 

No theorizing is necessary.

Righteousness????

 Tom Cotton stated the boat strikes are righteousness? Cotton is a lawyer justifying murder with religious hubris? 

That is called jihad.

Our soldiers do NOT carry out COMBAT as zealots and Cotton is lay out of line!

Zealots die in combat because their heads aren’t screwed on straight. They justify their actions by divine purpose waiting and acting on emotional spirituality. That is bullshit!

Trump and his minions are turning the USA military into basket cases.

Righteousness as a motivation for killing is called a CONVICTION punishable by at least 25 years behind bars.

Righteous is not a legitimate defense for any military engagement. Defense, be it for the country or self is the ONLY motivation for military killing or homicide.

End of discussion.

More incompetence from the Trump administration.

This is ideology. There is absolutely no factual reason to make these changes in vaccines.  I am convinced over my lifetime vaccines have saved my life.

The currently still valid and underfunded Affordable Care Act requires PREVENTIVE CARE of all Americans. Vaccines are preventive health care. I have received my preventative care this year including vaccines.

Considering vaccines are preventative care, these recommendations are unconstitutional. This is not a First Amendmebt issue. It is more the constitutional right to one’s own body and wellness. It is part of the right to happiness. Wellness definitely impacts happiness and quality of life.

Every American has a right to thrive without government oppression of any kind. 

Why does this administration attack children and their viability? Natural immunity is cheaper but very dangerous.

(Click here)

Everyone is on very thin ice.

I suppose if thin ice is all one has in defense of actions taken when homicide is the result, it is enough. 

A few thoughts. There is no war declared. Carrying out drug runner interventions in the Caribbean Sea is very messy, especially when there are far better alternatives that do not require an aircraft carrier battle group in waters considered to be mostly friendly and allied.

I find this entire scenario outrageous, expensive, and very much out of line with the mission of the USA military.

This has to be one of the most irresponsible uses of an aircraft carrier in Navy history. Congress needs to assert itself in limiting the use of the USA military with drug trafficking from anywhere in the world.

This is not a war. Not by a long shot. I sincerely believe this is murder and while the people on the boats may be criminal in their intent they never had a trial or proof of their purpose. I believe due to sincere lack of proof of the crime in these interdictions the families of these men have legal recourse.

Trump and Hegseth are among the worst leadership this country has ever had and this is more proof of it. Hegseth is not qualified to speak to admirals and generals by the sheer fact he is abusing power granted to him by the title alone as Secretary of Defense. He is even operating under an alias of Secretary of War.

Trump and Hegseth have no respect for the power easily at their disposal and they have absolutely no respect for Congress. They are both operating outside their defined office as if dictatorial powers actually exist. 

I have to laugh at the politicians in Venezuela. Maduro could never defeat the USA military and the rightful and freely elected president believes Trump is a liberator. She has no real idea of the workcraft of Trump. He is not a liberator. Trump is a racketeer. Even if it were possible to bloodlessly remove Maduro, the price to the new president with the USA military occupying Venezuela; she has no reassurance of power, except as a figurehead.

The United States Rule of Law calls the military the Department of Defense for real reasons. It is not a liberation force. It is a defense force and always has been. The USA military is highly lethal. No country in this world wants this country’s military within their borders. 

With all that said, Hegseth is way out of line in his time as Defense Secretary. Congress needs to be acting to contain the misguided ideology of this Defense Secretary. The Caribbean Sea has a role in providing sun filled warmth to vacationing Americans and NATO is in a far more precarious situation than it has been since WWII.

“Republicans are immoral.”

Cute. Putin is stating he takes back everything he said about a peace deal. NATO needs to prepare for conflict with third world Russia and its mercenary armies that never get a chance to collect their first paycheck.

To return to Trump’s war on boats; with a toe hold in Venezuela why does anyone suppose it was important to bring Balsanaro to the USA seeking asylum? Then he pardons Hernandez. Hello? 

Trump has pardoned a record number of convicted criminals and what does Congress do about it? 

Crickets.

Oh, cute. Trump is adding a new chief architect to the East Wing demolition. He isn’t firing anyone. That would be admitting he screwed up. There could be real world reason why his buildings ended up in bankruptcy.

Americans need to consider building a new presidential residence somewhere else because it is going to take a long time to reconstruct this one. It will be unfair to put the next First Family through all that.

But, I am turning now to Alaska.

There was a vote today regarding a plot of land of the Alaskan coastal plain. Here we go with petroleum again.

There is a segment of land named “1001” or talked about as “ten oh one.”

(Click here)

I have never heard a former president defamed on the Senate floor as much as Former President Biden was today. Any why? Because Lisa Murkowski couldn’t get her way with Joe to exploit endangered species habitat to benefit the petroleum industry profits.

Now, mind you Murkowski, who I consider to be a fairly level headed Senator, stated they had done ALL the environmental studies and there was no reason for then President Biden to get in the way of Alaskan energy.

And this is the sad part. Murkowski’s environmental studies left out one very important environmental FACT; the climate crisis. Former President Biden was not having cognition problems, he was standing on solid moral grounds and if anyone wants to challenge that fact I suggest taking it up with the Vatican.

There is no reason to drill in Alaska except for the wealthy people on the dole from the industry and the Alaskan authorities. Oh yeah, there is the money to get elected, too. Croney money.

Think about this for a minute. The Alaskan Pipeline is enormous. Our allies drilled there at one time. Yes, for profits, but, the north shore dried up.

Air pollution, heat exposure, wildfires, and disease all come from the climate crisis that claims more than 500,000 human beings a year. A YEAR. Yes. Disease. Ever hear of the New World Screwworm? It had migrated into Texas and why? Because things in Texas are now a happy place for this pest due to global warming.

The climate crisis and its greenhouse gas pollution is a huge moral issue and Republicans choke on the words, climate crisis. You won’t hear one of them say it. Exploding Smokey Mountains or not, there is no vocabulary for such events that aren’t explained away by ancient political rhetoric.

So, while the Republicans and their cronies spent a lot of money to prove their activities in Sector “ten oh one,” won’t cause problems for the fishing industry it says nothing about the migrated fish north from the equator now calling higher latitudes home because of hot ocean waters. Republicans will never admit there is volumes and volumes of research that OUR OWN AGENCIES have carried out supporting the climate crisis FACTS and the need for RESPONSIBLE GOVERNMENT.

More later.

Republicans are immoral.

I don’t think they figured it out yet, so I thought I would point to a couple of issues to illustrate.

Hegseth:

Thune stated he does not approve of Hegseth leading the Department of Defense, but, he serves at the pleasure of the president so Thune sees no reason to move against him. That is called talking out of both sides of your mouth. It is politically SMOOTH so he can maintain the fear level of Trump in the Senate while CYAing the Republicans in case it all turns sour in the electorate.

The issue with Hegseth is very clear. He is killing people. I don’t care if it is with one strike or two. He has no real reason to kill people. He should be asking the Congress for more Coast Guard operations to eliminate the arrival 100 percent of any drug runners.

Trump today backs Hegseth’s killing people. Why? Because Hegseth is scapegoating an Admiral that won’t mutiny Hegseth for ordering the deaths of people in boats. So, Trump figures he can blame the Admiral after scouring every other officer in the military leadership so he can run roughshod over the Admirals that are left for carrying out illegal orders given by him to Hegseth. Trump intends to blame the Admiral for the deaths as he was acting alone with a hubris of power.

The fact of the matter is Trump has celebrated these extra-judiciary killings many times in the public realm. Trump is the most responsible for the misdeeds of his war on Venezuelan boats. We don’t know and never will if there was any contraband involved. It is basically a war on boats.

I am going to take license with this idea that Trump prioritizes with his war on boats.

Donald stated he wants to take Canada and Mexico with force if necessary. That is an entire continent. North America to be exact. He has already changed the map to read “The Gulf of America.” Add to that he wants to take Greenland and consider it North America, too. 

How much petroleum is that? But, more than that, with his attempts at alienating our allies, who will come to the rescue of the people Trump determined to be garbage. Yes, human beings he calls garbage.

With his war on boats, who will come to stop the carnage within the North American continent? Add to that his expansion into Venezuela which gives him a toe hold on South America. He has already put the largest and most sophisticated aircraft carrier in the Caribbean Sea. Don’t tell me I have a wild imagination with a huge compliment of the USA Navy in the Caribbean, but, hey who cares, all this is happening at the pleasure of the president. 

continued in the next entry..,

I have a question. Only one.

Does doing nothing but chasing profits result in a far lower quality of life?

Hint: Million-Billionaires always figure they can provide for optimal quality of life because of their wealth. What are the costs these jerks experience and when does it all become a really dumb way of looking at life?

...That financial gut punch (click here) won’t just affect big governments and corporations. According to the United Nations, the world is heading toward a gain of nearly 3 degrees of global warming in the next century, even with current climate policies and goals – and researchers say individuals could bear the economic burden.

The researchers in Wednesday’s study, published in Nature, said financial pain in the short-term is inevitable, even if governments ramp up their efforts to tackle the crisis now.

“These impacts are unavoidable in the sense that they are indistinguishable across different future emission scenarios until 2049,” two of the study’s researchers from the Potsdam Institute of Climate Impact Research, Maximilian Kotz and Leonie Wenz, told CNN via email....

When does pure living become unattainable?

...But Zillow (click here) has now deleted this climate index after complaints from real estate agents and some homeowners that the rankings appeared arbitrary, could not be challenged and harmed house sales. The complaints included those from the California Regional Multiple Listing Service, which oversees a database of property data that Zillow relies upon.

Zillow said it remains committed to help Americans make informed decisions about properties, with listings now containing outbound links to the website of First Street, the non-profit climate risk quantifier that had provided the on-site tool to Zillow....

Ya think?

Okay, so it was three questions.

This is a problem that must be solved. American minorities have increased stress under Trump.

Two pregnant Black women nearly 1,000 miles apart (click here) were ready to do what many do every day: welcome new bundles of joy, and just before the start of the holiday season. Instead, the health of both women and their babies was put at risk after hospital staff did not immediately provide the needed care.

One woman was discharged and delivered her baby on the side of an Indiana highway, while the other nearly gave birth in a Texas hospital’s emergency waiting room. Both women survived, but are still reeling from ordeals that have drawn national attention — in part, because they were captured on video and shared on social media.

Each instance highlights the long-standing and rising disparities in health outcomes for Black women, who die at a rate nearly 3.5 times higher than white women around the time of childbirth, according to a 2023 Centers for Disease Control and Prevention report....

Black women and families have a higher rate of impoverishment. It could be due to many factors including racism, lack of availability of education, or other oppressive forces due to segregation. This disparity needs to be solved. The stress women of lower income are under can be causing many problems including heatlh issues and maternity deaths.

As a side note: the average age of home buyers has changed from 32 years old to now 59 years old. Former Vice President Kamala Harris' plan to bring eligible working Americans to the housing market in providing $25K for a down payment would be the beginning of ending the LOCK OUT of Americans from purchasing their home a part of the American Dream.

President Donald Trump (click here) pardoned Texas Democratic Rep. Henry Cuellar and his wife in a federal bribery and conspiracy case on Wednesday, citing what he called a “weaponized” justice system.

Trump, who has argued that his own legal troubles were a partisan witch hunt, said on social media without presenting evidence that Cuellar and his wife, Imelda Cuellar, were prosecuted because the congressman had been critical of President Joe Biden’s immigration policies.

Trump, a Republican, said in a social media post that Cuellar “bravely spoke out against Open Borders” and accused Biden, a Democrat, of going after the congressman and his wife “for speaking the TRUTH.”

Federal authorities had charged Cuellar and his wife with accepting thousands of dollars in exchange for the congressman advancing the interests of an Azerbaijan-controlled energy company and a bank in Mexico. Cuellar is accused of agreeing to influence legislation favorable to Azerbaijan and deliver a pro-Azerbaijan speech on the floor of the U.S. House....

Part of the peace plan or did Cuellar remind Trump who exactly asked him to bring about plans in Congress of the Azerbaijan energy company? It might make for prolific election fodder otherwise.

On August 8, 2025, (click here) Azerbaijan President Ilham Aliyev and Armenian Prime Minister Nikol Pashinyan met US President Donald Trump in the Oval Office. According to the White House press release, the three leaders “signed a historic joint declaration for peace after decades of bitter conflict and scores of lives lost — a landmark achievement for international diplomacy that only President Trump could deliver”.

In reality, peace remains distant. Whether his Gaza peace plan, the peace between Rwanda and the Democratic Republic of Congo, or his much-ballyhooed claim that he ended the “1,000-year-old” India-Pakistan conflict in a mere 24 hours, the reality is that Trump’s declarations of peace are akin to holding a grand opening ribbon-cutting for a building whose foundation is not even completely dug....
