Repulsion hits Trump as fresh attack on woman gets seen: 'Pathetic piece of human waste'

President Donald Trump sparked outrage on Monday after snapping at a female reporter who questioned him aboard Air Force One.Trump was heading to Michigan, where he was expected to give an address about the economy at the GM Proving Grounds in Milford. He was furious after the journalist asked him a question about the Senate and the SAVE America Act, which he has pressured Republicans to support as part of his broader push for stricter voter ID."On the Senate, on the SAVE Act, why do you want the U.S. Senate to stay in town?" she asked. "Shouldn't they be out across the country campaigning?""What a stupid question," Trump said.Critics and political commentators responded to the president's remarks."Just listen to @realDonaldTrump. He’s utterly incoherent. He can’t follow the questions, can’t maintain a train of thought. He couldn’t run a lemonade stand at this point," conservative attorney turned anti-Trump activist George Conway wrote on X."Trump is incoherent, delusional and dangerous," White House columnist for Raw America, Brian Karem, wrote on X."When someone tells you Trump is super transparent and talks to reporters more than any other president, show them this. He simply doesn't answer questions. He is the LEAST transparent president," Zeteo's Mehdi Hasan wrote on X."He absolutely hates strong women, what an insecure pathetic piece of human waste," progressive political commentator Robert Scannell wrote on Bluesky.WOMAN REPORTER: On the SAVE Act, why do you want the Senate to stay in town?

White House insiders fear Trump's 'terrible idea' will 'plunge US off a cliff': report

White House officials and insiders are growing increasingly worried that President Donald Trump may soon move forward with an idea they fear could “plunge the U.S. and global economy off a steep cliff,” Zeteo reported Sunday, and one that could be executed “as soon as within the coming days.”Trump’s idea, as he told Axios last week, was to stage a “massive attack” on Iran and reignite the conflict in a bid to bring Tehran back to the negotiating table on terms more favorable to Washington. However, “practically everyone in Trump’s inner circle” believes Trump’s plan is doomed to fail, Zeteo reported after speaking with multiple White House insiders.“Terrible f------ idea,” one White House adviser told Zeteo regarding their thoughts on Trump’s plan, speaking on the condition of anonymity.“Trump has no f------ way out,” a senior administration official told Zeteo, also speaking on the condition of anonymity.A third White House official, also speaking anonymously, told Zeteo there was "almost no scenario where Americans don't die" if Trump moves forward. And yet, despite the apparent consensus among Trump’s inner circle that further escalation would be unwise, one major "problem” persisted.“[The vast majority of Trump’s most senior advisers are] too scared to just say it to the president,” a U.S. official told Zeteo, also under the condition of anonymity. “No one is just telling Trump this won’t work… They soft-sell it or tone it down when they talk to the president about this, when what they all should be doing is telling him that none of this is going to work and it will destroy everything he’s worked for.”The White House insiders’ fears were further supported by recent reporting from The New York Times about a secret meeting on Friday between Trump and his top advisers, during which the majority of those close to Trump advised against intensifying attacks on Iran.

Haunting theory suggests US could soon be dragged into a hot war: expert

Amid the ongoing and deeply unpopular war against Iran, foreign policy analyst Trita Parsi floated an ominous theory Monday suggesting that the United States could soon be dragged into a second war.Parsi’s warning came just days after Iran’s Foreign Ministry claimed Ukraine had struck an Iranian shipping vessel in the Caspian Sea, killing one and injuring others. Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy acknowledged that Ukraine had carried out strikes in the Caspian Sea that included “vessels used in military cargo shipments involving Iran.”As to how Ukraine’s recent strikes could drag the United States into a second war, Parsi laid out his theory clearly in a statement published Monday on Substack.“Ukraine is not trying to just enter the war with Iran. Rather, it appears it is trying to merge the Ukraine war with the Iran war,” Parsi, the co-founder of the Quincy Institute for Responsible Statecraft, wrote.“Why? Because if these two wars merge, Ukraine will be a belligerent in the Iran war and America will be a belligerent in the Ukraine war. That is, the US will no longer just be arming Ukraine, but also actively and openly fighting Russia with US personnel.”Furthermore, Parsi alleged that Zelenskyy had sought to pull the United States into a hot war with Russia “since 2022.” Similar allegations were floated in 2022 after Zelenskyy pressed NATO to impose a no-fly zone over Ukraine. Zelenskyy’s request was denied, with then-NATO Secretary General Jens Stoltenberg warning that doing so could spark “a full-fledged war in Europe.”“The only way to implement a no-fly zone is to send Nato fighter planes into Ukraine’s airspace, and then impose that no-fly zone by shooting down Russian planes,” Stoltenberg said at the time.Zelenskyy lashed out at NATO after it had rejected its request, accusing NATO leadership of having given “the green light for further bombing of Ukrainian cities and villages.”Ukraine is not trying to just enter the war with Iran. Rather, it appears it is trying to merge the Ukraine war with the Iran war.Why? Because if these two wars merge, Ukraine will be a belligerent in the Iran war and America will be a belligerent in the Ukraine war.That is, the US will no longer just be arming Ukraine, but also actively and openly fighting Russia with US personnel. That is the key objective Zelensky has tried to achieve since 2022... - Trita ParsiRead on Substack
