I would say he’s asking for a friend but he doesn’t have any

During an appearance on a right-wing podcast last week, Florida GOP gubernatorial candidate James Fishback was asked about calls for him to renounce white nationalist Nick Fuentes' support for him. In response, Fishback said, "I will never ever disavow patriotic Americans ever."

Trump won't recognize the Epstein victims in the crowd tonight. He hasn't seen them since they were 14

Today marks a day that, four years ago, forever changed our history—and each of us. Four years of anxiety, pain, loss, trials, and daily struggle. But at the same time, these have been years of incredible strength, resilience, and unity in Ukraine’s War for Independence. Years when Kharkiv
