Trump Family's Alaska Oil Play Has Russia Written All Over It
The president of the United States isn't just selling out Ukraine to Russia. Trump and his family have no problem putting Russia before America, letting a Russian company 'Drill Baby Drill.'
Last week, Trump made it clear to the world that he is siding with Russia in the battle against Ukraine, which goes against the will of the American people. While Americans and our allies are still reeling from Trump and Elon Musk's betrayal, another story broke.
The New York Times reported that the Trump family secretly made a deal to allow Russians to drill in Alaska if the Russian company made a $25 billion investment in various Trump proxies.
Surprise. The president of the United States isn't just selling out Ukraine to Russia. Trump and his family have no problem putting American interests at risk for Russia. Per The New York Times:
"Leaders of the US energy company have resigned in frustration after the Trump family was caught secretly fast-tracking the transfer of $25 billion from a Russian energy giant under sanctions, in return for letting Russians take over a natural gas project in Alaska.
Investigations found that Russian company Novatek reportedly hid its financial involvement in the American project by using a middleman connected to the UAE.
Who would have believed that 35 years after the collapse of the Soviet Union we'd find Donald Trump and his family fully supporting Russia and Putin's desire to recreate the old empire?

Pete Hegseth reportedly authorizes DHS to test ‘heat ray’ at US-Mexico border
The Pentagon’s Active Denial System shoots energy beam that causes ‘sensation of intense heat on surface of skin’
Pete Hegseth, the US secretary of defense, reportedly signed a memo last month permitting the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) to test a non-lethal “heat ray” for potential use at the US southern border.
The “heat ray”, known as the Active Denial System, is a military-grade weapon that shoots an energy beam causing “a sensation of intense heat on the surface of the skin”, according to a 2009 National Defense University case study on the weapon.
The sensation “creates an intolerable sensation and reflexive movement” such as ducking or running.
One can only imagine who the Active Denial System will be tested against. Given the abject white nationalism of Pete Hegseth he'll authorize its testing against anyone within a certain distance of the border on the Mexican side. Next Pete Hegseth will authorize research into creating the Galactic Empires interrogation chair and IT-O interrogation droid.

International Backlash Mounts Over Russia Aid, Betrayal Of Ukraine
American and international backlash is growing against Trump over his aid to Russia and betrayal of Ukraine. Even The National Review calls for Congress to investigate Trump's action
Trump’s new executive order excludes Russia from major sanctions in a law Congress passed in September. The president's October 16 executive order is a betrayal of Ukraine, and his financial gift to Russia came within days of an “outage” of Elon Musk’s Starshield military satellites. The technical “outage” impaired Ukraine’s air defenses against Russia. One Ukrainian officer told Politico:
“This is comparable to a nuclear strike against us. All operations are on hold.”

Idaho voters to choose state gun
Idaho has a state flower. A state amphibian. Even a state fossil.
But — perhaps surprisingly for a state where so many people own guns — it doesn’t yet have a state gun.
That could soon change. In November, Idaho residents will vote on a nonbinding “advisory question”: What should the state gun be?
There are six options on the ballot, which House Majority Leader Jason Monks, R-Meridian, selected after researching and consulting with other lawmakers on which guns have historical significance to Idaho or the U.S.
Obviously they didn't think through their choices:
M61 Vulcan
YakB-12.7 machine gun
If you can't go big and stupid you might as well go home.
What's next: A vote for a state hanging rope

Kimberly Guilfoyle Faces The Axe As Trump And Rubio Grow Furious
Girl, bye!
Kimberly Guilfoyle's dream posting in Greece may be turning into a nightmare for the Trump administration. Donald J. Trump and Secretary of State Marco Rubio are reportedly considering giving their ambassador the boot after a series of damaging reports about her conduct before and during her time in Athens.
The Associated Press reports that a senior U.S. official said Trump and Rubio were “extremely pissed off” over the allegations and could decide Guilfoyle's fate as soon as this week. Rubio was reportedly particularly angry, having just visited Athens while the controversy was circling the ambassador. Guilfoyle greeted him with a bear hug, apparently providing a rather awkward photo opportunity amid the growing mess.
There is the reported $100,000 credit-card bill, and the WSJ had receipts. The Journal reported that Guilfoyle asked a Trump donor to pay the bill shortly before her confirmation hearing, allegedly promising him access to administration officials in return. Because apparently, the revolving door between political access and big-money favors wasn't complicated enough already.
Please sugar daddy I need you to pay off by credit card debt so I get an upgrade on my Halloween mask plastic surgery
