Krugman, who has made no secret of his contempt for cryptocurrencies (or for Trump and Trumpism), argues their rise is inextricably linked with the Trump administration's raft of friendly policies and actions toward crypto investors and exchanges. That includes calling for the creation of a government Bitcoin reserve, as well as signing an executive order in August to allow U.S. citizens to invest retirement savings in cryptocurrency, as well as other alternative assets.

At the top of the page, the text reads: Misleading. Biased. Exposed. The feature names the Boston Globe, CBS News and the Independent as media offenders of the week, accusing them of inaccurately portraying Trump's remarks about six Democratic lawmakers who released of video encouraging military members to not follow illegal orders. The controversy arose after Trump accused Democrats of seditious behavior, punishable by death on social media. He also reposted a statement including the words: hang them.

Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-Ga.), a longtime Trump ally who recently split with the president, made headlines last week by announcing her plans to resign in January. Rep. Don Bacon (R-Neb.), a Trump critic, told Axios he nearly resigned over the Trump administration's 28-point peace plan for the Russia-Ukraine war. "I have made the decision, after conversations with my beautiful bride and my girls over the Thanksgiving holiday, to focus on my family and return home after this Congress," Nehls said in a statement.

A former federal prosecutor and Republican strategist blasted President Donald Trump's absolutely indefensible Thanksgiving Day outburst. On Wednesday in Washington, D.C., two members of the West Virginia National Guard were shot while on deployment, which Trump ordered in August, ostensibly to fight crime. One of those soldiers died from her wounds the next day. The suspected gunman, a 29-year-old Afghan national who reportedly fought for a CIA-backed paramilitary group in Afghanistan, is in custody.

The collapse of the indictments of James Comey and Letitia James speak to the rot at the heart of the Trump administration. Lindsey Halligan, predictably, was found to be appointed illegally after her predecessor was driven out of office after rightly concluding that the cases did not have legal merit. The Senate never confirmed Halligan, and her interim appointment couldn't be indefinite as a matter of law.

Tonight, President Trump lashing out after The New York Times produced a detailed data-driven report and talking about how he may be showing some signs of aging. In that report, the Times writes, Mr. Trump has fewer public events on his schedule and is traveling domestically much less than he did by this point during his first year in office, noting that he also keeps a shorter public schedule than he used to, and that most of his public appearances fall between noon and 5 P.M. on average.

Trump still favors a negotiated exit for Maduro and plans to speak privately with the Venezuelan dictator, a U.S.-branded "narcoterrorist" with a Justice Department bounty on his head. But Trump - whom a U.S. official described as the administration's biggest hawk on this issue - also has authorized CIA covert operations inside Venezuela and reserved the option to order land strikes at any time.

SW: Yuri, Yuri, here's what I would do. My recommendation. YU: Yes, please. SW: I would make the call and just reiterate that you congratulate the president on this achievement, that you supported it, you supported it, that you respect that he is a man of peace and you're just, you're really glad to have seen it happen. So I would say that. I think from that it's going to be a really good call.

He used an autopen last year for the turkey's pardon[s], so I have the official duty to determine, and I have determined last year's turkey pardons are totally invalid, Trump said, drawing some laughs from the assembled crowd. The president then moved on from clowning Sleepy Biden to his son, Hunter Biden. As are the pardons of about every other person that was pardoned, other than, uhh, where's Hunter? Trump said, drawing a couple more chuckles. No, Hunter's was good.

I hope the visit of President Zelensky will take place as soon as possible, because ... it will be help President Trump to continue his historical mission to end this war. Because [Trump] can say: 'Look, this is confirmed and agreed, our position with the Ukrainians. We support it, and we continue now to speak with the Russians.'

We're learning President Trump is planning to unveil a new health care proposal. And at this point we're still waiting to know exactly what's in it, but we're told it could include a temporary extension of the enhanced Affordable Care Act subsidies, which are due to expire at the end of the year. They were at the center of the government shutdown.

I don't want to hear any politicians call each other fascists, authoritarians, wannabe-dictators, communists none of that kind of rhetoric anymore. It's all dead, because if you call someone that, and then turn around and say, But I'm willing to work with them, it looks hypocritical. And there is no such thing as working with uh fascists. That's not how fascism works. Fascism isn't a normal political disagreement.

The Republican Party is increasingly at war with itself, which doesn't bode well for its effort to prevent another election-day wipeout like it experienced earlier this month in off-year elections in New Jersey, Virginia, Georgia and California. Republicans ostensibly won the government shutdown fight, but they did so by blocking an extension of broadly popular tax credits under the Affordable Care Act. Millions of Americans now face spiking health care premiums, and the president's party is splintered over how to respond.

President Donald Trump told Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky to agree to his 28-point peace plan by Thanksgiving, saying it is a good and necessary deal to end the Russia-Ukraine War that has been raging for three years. The president, while speaking to reporters in front of the White House on Saturday morning, said Zelensky, if he does not accept the deal, can fight his little heart out.

Although they did not specify which orders might be illegal, Trump has come under fire for sending the US military into American cities for poorly defined reasons, including amid peaceful protests against a massive and aggressive deportation campaign. Seditious behavior, punishable by death! Trump responded in a post on Truth Social. Each one of these traitors to our Country should be arrested and put on trial. He also reposted a message from another user reading: Hang them George Washington would!

Like us, you all swore an oath to protect and defend this constitution, the lawmakers said in the 90-second video. And right now, the threats to our constitution aren't just coming from abroad, but from right here at home. Our laws are clear, you can refuse illegal orders, you can refuse illegal orders, you must refuse illegal orders. No one has to carry out orders that violate the law or our constitution.

White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt defended former President Donald Trump's recent Truth Social post calling Democratic members of Congress seditious traitors and saying their conduct was punishable by death, while insisting Trump actually opposes dangerous rhetoric. During the press briefing, a reporter pressed Leavitt about Trump's comments regarding a video released by six Democratic senators and representatives all military veterans reminding service members that they are required to refuse unlawful orders under the Uniform Code of Military Justice.

And he calls out fake news when he sees it. He gets frustrated with reporters when you lie about him, when you spread fake news about him and his administration, but he also is the most transparent president in history. And he gives all of you in this room, as you all know, unprecedented access. You are in the Oval Office almost every day asking the president questions.

United States President Donald Trump has floated the possibility of the death penalty for a group of Democratic Congress members who called upon the military and intelligence community to refuse illegal orders. He also suggested he would be in favour of imprisoning the Democrats for their statement. list of 3 itemsend of list This is really bad, and Dangerous to our Country. Their words cannot be allowed to stand. SEDITIOUS BEHAVIOR FROM TRAITORS!!! LOCK THEM UP???

Mortgage rates are down despite the fed. I mean, Scott, you've got to work on this guy. He's got some real mental problems. There's something wrong with him. Be honest. I would love to fire his ass. He should be fired. Guy is grossly incompetent. And he should be sued for spending $4 billion to build a little building. I'm building a ballroom that's going to cost a tiny fraction of that and it's bigger than the whole thing put together.

He did not go quite as far as he could have: he has the power to order the disclosure of these files without Congress's permission. The documents could reveal the involvement in Epstein's sexual trafficking network of dozens of wealthy and influential men, as well as the complicity of financial institutions, judicial bodies, and failures by authorities that allowed him to act with impunity.

NBC's Seth Meyers is suffering from an incurable case of Trump Derangement Syndrome (TDS). He was viewed last night in an uncontrollable rage, likely due to the fact that his 'show' is a Ratings DISASTER. Aside from everything else, Meyers has no talent, and NBC should fire him, IMMEDIATELY!
