    U.S. Secretary of State Marco Rubio testified before the Senate Foreign Relations Committee regarding the Trump administration’s proposed $28.5 billion State Department budget for the 2025/26 fiscal year. Rubio defended the budget, which aims to cut $20 billion in what he described as “duplicative, wasteful, and ideologically driven programs,” aligning with President Trump’s “America First” foreign policy. He faced tough questioning from Democrats, particularly over the administration’s drastic reductions in foreign aid, the dissolution of USAID into the State Department, and staff cuts, which critics argue undermine U.S. soft power and national security. Senators, including Jeanne Shaheen, expressed concerns about damaged alliances and diminished trust in U.S. reliability, especially as China increases its global diplomatic spending. Rubio, also serving as acting national security adviser and USAID administrator, was pressed on Trump’s policies, including plans to unwind Syria sanctions, immigration crackdowns, and controversial territorial ambitions like Canada and Greenland. He emphasized prioritizing U.S. interests while maintaining lifesaving aid programs, though without a specialized aid agency. Republicans praised Rubio’s leadership, while some Democrats, like Chris Murphy, regretted their confirmation votes, citing his alignment with Trump’s agenda over bipartisan traditions.

    Doocy Brings up Trump’s Taylor Swift remarks on not being hot any longer!

    https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nE68tdnS2o0
    This clip is focused on the Taylor Swift question asked by Peter Doocy for what was a very full White House press briefing session.

    Ukraine-Russia Talks: The briefing addressed ongoing peace efforts, with the White House emphasizing President Trump’s openness to meeting Russian President Putin to advance negotiations. The administration highlighted its role in facilitating dialogue, with a focus on ending conflict and achieving stability in the region. Discussions also touched on a minerals deal, clarifying that the U.S. remains a significant supporter of Ukraine despite erroneous media reports.

    Economic Issues and Moody’s Assessment: Leavitt responded to Moody’s economic outlook, stating that President Trump disagrees with their assessment, asserting global confidence in the U.S. economy. The briefing downplayed stock market volatility, framing it as a snapshot not reflective of broader economic strength under Trump’s policies.

    Legislation – One Big Beautiful Bill: Leavitt outlined the administration’s signature legislation, referred to as the “One Big Beautiful Bill,” though specific details were not elaborated in the sources. This was presented as a major legislative priority for Trump’s agenda.

    Foreign Policy and Sanctions: The briefing included mentions of potential secondary sanctions and Trump’s approach to international relations, particularly in the context of proxy wars involving Israel and Ukraine. No specific timeline was provided for actions like lifting sanctions on Syria, which was discussed in a prior State Department briefing.

    Controversial Topics: The briefing addressed Trump’s social media post referencing the “Clinton body count” and questions about Jeffrey Epstein’s ties to intelligence agencies, potentially involving the Israeli government. These were noted as points of discussion but lacked detailed responses in the available sources.

    Taylor swift too??

    Trump’s SHOCKING Air Force One Rant: Genocide Claims, Free Jet Drama & G20 Boycott Threat!

    supercow
    -
    0

    https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Eoj7byvLXSw
    Qatar’s Gift of a Luxury Jet:
    Trump defended accepting a Boeing 747-8 from Qatar as a temporary Air Force One, calling it a “great gesture” and a “no-brainer” due to its $400 million value and Boeing’s delays in delivering new Air Force One jets. He noted the plane would go to the Defense Department but planned to transfer it to his presidential library post-term, sparking ethical concerns.

    Quote (from Qatar to UAE flight): “I could be a stupid person and say, ‘No, we don’t want a free, very expensive airplane.’”

    Syria and Sanctions:
    Trump discussed lifting U.S. sanctions on Syria post-Assad, describing them as “brutal and crippling” and praising Syria’s new leader, Ahmed al-Sharaa, as a “young, attractive, tough guy” with potential to stabilize the country. He suggested Syria could join the Abraham Accords eventually.

    Iran Nuclear Talks:
    Trump claimed progress in nuclear talks with Iran, stating on the return flight that Iran received a U.S. proposal and needed to act fast or face consequences. Iran’s Foreign Minister denied receiving a formal proposal, highlighting contradictory messaging.

    Russia-Ukraine Peace Talks:
    Trump said no progress would occur in Russia-Ukraine talks until he met Putin personally, stating, “Nothing is going to happen until Putin and I get together.” He mentioned potential talks in Turkey but tempered expectations.

    India-Pakistan Tensions and Trade:
    Trump claimed he eased India-Pakistan tensions through trade negotiations, mentioning India’s offer of a “literally no tariff” deal during a Qatar roundtable, though India didn’t confirm this.

    Criticism of Domestic Opponents and Media:
    Trump attacked Biden as “grossly incompetent” and the media as “enemies” during a flight, breaking norms by criticizing domestic opponents abroad in a region with limited press freedom.

    Israel and the Trip’s Focus:
    Addressing questions about bypassing Israel, Trump denied snubbing it, saying, “This is good for Israel, having a relationship like I have with these countries,” emphasizing Gulf economic deals over the Israel-Gaza conflict.

    South Africa and Afrikaner Refugees:
    At the end of the Q&A, Trump claimed South Africa was committing “genocide” against white Afrikaners, citing a new land reform law (the Expropriation Act) as evidence of racial persecution. He defended granting refugee status to 59 white South Africans who arrived in the U.S. on May 12, 2025, calling them victims of discrimination.

    He threatened to boycott the 2025 G20 summit, hosted by South Africa, unless the “situation is taken care of,” escalating tensions with Pretoria. South African President Cyril Ramaphosa denied the genocide claims, asserting whites face no targeted persecution.

    Context: Trump’s comments followed his February 2025 executive order prioritizing Afrikaner resettlement, which halted most non-white refugee admissions globally. Critics, including Democrats and South African officials, called the genocide narrative baseless, linking it to far-right claims amplified by figures like Elon Musk.

    Summary of the Biden Tapes:

    supercow

    Summary of the Biden Tapes:

    Summary of President Joe Biden’s Interview with Special Counsel Robert Hur (October 8, 2023)

    The transcript captures a detailed interview conducted by Special Counsel Robert Hur with President Joe Biden on October 8, 2023, focusing on Biden’s handling of classified documents during and after his vice presidency (2009–2017). The interview, attended by Biden’s legal team, White House counsel, FBI agents, and Hur’s team, aimed to understand how classified materials were stored, accessed, and potentially misplaced, particularly at Biden’s residences and the Penn Biden Center. Below is a concise summary of the key points, organized by major themes discussed:

    1. Preliminary Remarks and Cooperation

    • Context and Gratitude: Hur thanked Biden for his cooperation, noting the president’s busy schedule amid global events (e.g., a recent call with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu). Biden acknowledged the FBI’s familiarity with his properties due to their searches.
    • Purpose: The investigation sought to trace the “paper flow” of classified documents to explain how certain materials ended up in unauthorized locations post-vice presidency. Biden’s voluntary participation was recognized as part of his cooperation.
    • Clarity and Breaks: Biden was encouraged to seek clarification on unclear questions and take breaks as needed, with his counsel emphasizing they might also request clarity to maintain the interview’s flow.

    2. Post-Vice Presidency Plans (January 2017)

    • Career Transition: After leaving the vice presidency, Biden planned to become a professor at the University of Pennsylvania, work with the Biden Institute at the University of Delaware on domestic policy, and engage in public policy debates. He also taught constitutional law previously as a senator.
    • Penn Biden Center: Biden anticipated spending significant time at the Penn Biden Center in Washington, D.C., focusing on foreign policy and engaging with Congress and international diplomats. The center’s proximity to the Capitol facilitated these activities.
    • Writing and Other Initiatives: Biden wrote Promise Me, Dad, a memoir about his son Beau, motivated by personal rather than commercial goals. He also prioritized the Biden Cancer Initiative (Cancer Moonshot), leveraging Penn’s medical resources and his prior visits to global cancer research facilities to promote data sharing and collaboration.
    • Residences: Biden rented a home on Chambridge Road in McLean, Virginia, maintained his lakehouse in Wilmington, Delaware, and later acquired a beach house. The Chambridge Road home supported his wife’s teaching career and his D.C.-based work.

    3. Handling Classified Information During Vice Presidency

    • Unique Role: As vice president, Biden had unique access to classified information, exempt from standard handling rules applicable to others in government. The investigation sought to understand his specific practices.
    • Presidential Daily Brief (PDB): Biden received PDB binders, typically classified, in a locked blue bag with a laptop. He rarely retained these binders, often leaving them on his desk for staff to collect or keeping them briefly (locked) for further review. Notes were taken on separate paper, not by removing binder contents.
    • Other Classified Materials: Beyond PDBs, Biden received briefings from his national security team, often with minimal formal classified markings. He returned clearly marked classified documents to staff, who stored them securely (e.g., in locked drawers or safes), though he was unaware of specific storage locations.
    • Naval Observatory and Lakehouse: Biden conducted significant vice-presidential business from the Naval Observatory, where classified materials were handled similarly to his West Wing office—left on desks for staff collection. He occasionally brought classified materials to his Wilmington lakehouse, where they were stored in a library with lockable cabinets and desks. Staff retrieved these materials, though Biden didn’t direct specific storage protocols.
    • Staff Processes: National security staff tracked classified materials, but Biden didn’t recall instances of lost binders or staff inquiries about missing documents. He relied on staff to manage returns to appropriate agencies.

    4. “Eyes Only” Markings

    • Interpretation: Biden explained “eyes only” as a non-standard marking often used by staff (e.g., Jake Sullivan) to indicate sensitive but not necessarily classified information, such as internal policy disagreements. He contrasted this with formal classification markings (e.g., “Top Secret” with colored borders), which he treated with strict care.
    • Counsel’s Concern: Biden’s legal team cautioned against detailed questions on classification legalities, emphasizing his reliance on staff for compliance.

    5. Move-Out Process (End of Vice Presidency)

    • West Wing and Naval Observatory: Biden had no specific recollection of documents in his West Wing office or who managed the packing process, though his executive secretary (likely Michelle Smith) coordinated. Materials were sent to the Penn Biden Center or his residences.
    • Chambridge Road and Lakehouse: Documents from the Naval Observatory and West Wing were moved to Chambridge Road or Wilmington. Biden was unaware of who packed or transported these, noting boxes were “dropped” at locations like his lakehouse garage.
    • Lakehouse Garage: Classified documents, including a 2009 Afghanistan folder, were found in Biden’s Wilmington garage. He speculated these were moved from the Naval Observatory or West Wing during his vice presidency transition. Two “tranches” of materials arrived at the garage, possibly from the vice presidency or Penn Biden Center, mixed with unrelated items (e.g., construction materials, fans, Corvette parts). Biden moved boxes to accommodate his Corvette but didn’t unpack them.
    • Penn Biden Center: Files at the Penn Biden Center included topics like cancer research, violence against women, and foreign policy (e.g., Iran nuclear deal). Biden didn’t recall requesting specific files but recognized their relevance to his post-vice presidency work. An “eyes only” envelope with Iran-related documents from 2013–2015 was found in a box, possibly sent from his vice-presidential office.

    6. Specific Documents and Handwriting

    • Afghanistan 2009 Folder (Garage): Found in the lakehouse garage, this folder contained classified documents, including a 2009 memo to President Obama and notes from a National Security Council meeting. Biden recognized his handwriting on some documents but didn’t recall how they reached the garage, suggesting they were moved during the transition.
    • Iran Documents (Penn Biden Center): An “eyes only” envelope contained 2013–2015 Iran nuclear deal documents, some with Biden’s handwritten notes. He didn’t recall receiving or consulting these post-vice presidency, though they aligned with his role in congressional outreach on the deal. Photos from a 2015 Naval Observatory breakfast with senators showed Biden with documents, but he couldn’t confirm if they included the “eyes only” envelope.
    • Notebooks: Biden viewed handwritten notebooks as personal property, distinct from government-owned classified documents, which he returned if clearly marked. He gathered notebooks at Chambridge Road, possibly placing them in the Wilmington library.

    7. Intent and Awareness

    • Post-Vice Presidency Handling: Biden stated he had no purpose for retaining classified documents after his vice presidency and considered it inappropriate. He maintained an eight-year habit of returning marked classified materials to their source.
    • Lack of Specific Recall: Biden frequently noted his lack of recollection about specific documents, their movement, or staff actions, emphasizing he didn’t track logistics. He relied on staff to handle classified materials appropriately.
    • Promise Me, Dad: Biden didn’t recall consulting classified materials for his memoir, focusing on personal reflections about his son.

    8. Tone and Anecdotes

    • Engagement: Biden was cooperative, often humorous (e.g., joking about the FBI finding “risqué” photos of his wife or his Corvette’s maintenance), and reflective about his career and family. He expressed frustration at not recalling specifics, attributing it to the volume of materials and time elapsed.
    • Personal Touches: Biden shared anecdotes, such as his architectural interests, driving electric vehicles, and a Mongolian archery incident, adding levity to the interview.

    Key Takeaways

    • Biden cooperated fully, providing insights into his vice-presidential practices but often lacked specific recall about document handling or movement.
    • Classified materials were managed by staff, with Biden returning clearly marked documents promptly. Some materials ended up in his garage and Penn Biden Center, likely due to transition logistics.
    • The Afghanistan and Iran documents reflected his vice-presidential duties, but he didn’t recall retaining or consulting them post-2017.
    • Biden distinguished personal notebooks from government-owned classified documents, viewing the former as his property.
    • The interview highlighted systemic challenges in tracking classified materials during high-level transitions, with Biden relying heavily on staff.

    Meet the Press has again allowed their guests to cite opinion as fact, further perpetuating the considerable trust and authenticity gap the public has with traditional news outlets. In this instance, Andrea Mitchell makes an assertion that Trump has not been tough on Putin whatsoever, disregarding recent escalations and visible demonstrations made by Trump, and completely disregarded remarks by the Treasury Secretary made earlier on the program.

    House Oversight Committee Devolves as Marjorie Taylor Greene Enters Facts into the record

    https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pbboazuAKeo
    Buckle up, patriots, because the May 14, 2025, House Homeland Security Committee hearing was a showdown for the ages! DHS Secretary Kristi Noem took the hot seat to defend Trump’s rock-solid 2026 budget, laser-focused on securing our borders like never before. Noem didn’t hold back, touting the “most secure border in history” and calling out three Democrat reps for allegedly “assaulting law enforcement” at an ICE facility—talk about hypocrisy! Democrats like Bennie Thompson whined, claiming Noem’s leadership hurts DHS, but their real beef? Trump’s winning on immigration.

    Then, enter Marjorie Taylor Greene, dropping truth bombs like only she can. She moved to enter a claim about Kilmar Abrego Garcia—a guy deported despite a protection order—into the record, likely to expose the left’s overblown narrative and back DHS’s tough stance. Cue the Democrat meltdown! The room went nuts, with X posts screaming “all hell broke loose.” Why the tantrum? They knew Greene’s move would shine a light on their weak border policies. They probably tried to block it, scared of the facts, but that’s par for the course when you’re dodging accountability.

    The hearing rolled on, with Noem standing tall for America First priorities. Greene’s play was a classic—cutting through the noise to keep the focus on border security. Want more on how conservatives are fighting the good fight? Smash that like button, subscribe, and sound off in the comments!
