AOC in Munich: “They are looking to withdraw the United States from the entire world so that we can into an age of authoritarianism — of authoritarians that can carve out the world, where Donald Trump can command the Western Hemisphere & Latin America as his personal sandbox”

Trump's second term has been a disgusting cesspool of non-stop grift and corruption 👇 "In August 2025, I reported that the President and his family had made $3.4 billion by leveraging his position. After his first year back in office, the number has ballooned." Read more: https://bit.ly/4tmtni0

Rubio just made a speech to the European defense community in Munich that did not mention Ukraine. Or democracy. Or US business deals with Russia. Or the administration's plans to support the European far right. But there were lots of nice words about our common civilization.
