How negotiations actually work...
To the inevitable response from MAGA that Obama gave 'pallets' of cash...he released frozen Iranian assets. Meanwhile the current Iran conflict has directly cost $38 billion militarily and a currently projected $87 billion in extra gas and diesel expenses. Not to mention that the strategic oil reserves have been depleted to the point that experts warn that the caverns they're stored in could collapse.

“Profoundly Corrupt”: Trump Sued for Selling Early Access to His Truth Social Posts for $100K/Month — “The government can’t discriminate who it gives information to based on who they are, what they believe, what they’re willing to pay the president,” says Brendan Ballou (Public Integrity Project)
[Democracy Now!] speak[s] with Brendan Ballou, CEO of the Public Integrity Project, which is part of a lawsuit against President Donald Trump over his plan to monetize access to his social media platform Truth Social, where he routinely makes market-moving announcements. Truth API went live on August 1 and already has subscribers. Truth Social is charging up to $100,000 per month for early access to the president’s posts, giving investors an edge on major news events.
“It’s profoundly corrupt,” says Ballou. “The government can’t discriminate who it gives information to based on who they are, what they believe, what they’re willing to pay the president.”

American Farmers Are Being Crushed, and the Numbers Are Getting Worse.
TT | BlueWaveRising
The 2025–2026 farm numbers are brutal: Farm bankruptcies jumped 46% in 2025, then April 2026 filings surged another 130% year-over-year. Source 1
Farm debt is projected to hit a record $624.7 BILLION in 2026, while major row-crop farmers are projected to lose roughly $31 BILLION this year. Source 2
And Washington’s response? The latest USDA forecast says direct government farm payments are projected at $44.3 billion in 2026, up from $30.5 billion in 2025. But that figure includes existing Farm Bill programs and previously authorized disaster/assistance programs — it is not a new $44.3 billion tariff bailout. Source 3
Tariffs hurt their pockets, and suddenly government bailouts don’t sound so much like “socialism.”

what is up with the comments defending the dad? misogynists wanting to control daughter’s body?
https://www.reddit.com/r/Advice/s/LKAHRziPXL
refer to posts for reference.
what is with the comments? am i missing something? why is everyone on the dad’s side?
dad has an extra apartment in a city he DOES NOT LIVE IN and PLANNED to use it for his kids to stay in while they go to college. he’s whining because he chose to be nosey and look at a camera in his apartment he knows his college daughter is living in and saw her fucking her bf in the master bedroom.
he’s talking as if this bedroom and bed is his and his wife’s personal everyday bed when they live in their HOUSE out of the city and he only visits on weekends AND there’s a second bedroom he could stay in if he’s so bothered by what his daughter does in her room. yes, her room, cuz she’s staying there regardless of who pays the bills.
yes, dad pays for the apartment and the stuff in it, however, he did so FOR his kids college experience. are we really expecting college kids to not have sex? genuinely? also, why is it such a big deal even if he slept on that bed on weekends? wash the sheets? or stay in the guest bed or on couch? or get a hotel? or don’t visit your college kid since you’re so uncomfortable with her doing college things.
THEN, after bro tries to apologize for calling her out in a FAMILY GROUP CHAT, she suggested she live in the dorms instead and bro pitched a fit about paying for that!
seems to me like daddy is just upset his little girl has grown up and is fucking and wants to try anything he can to prevent her from having sex. it’s WEIRD! but the comments are making his reaction seem just and normal. idk maybe i’m still stuck in teen brain but the situation doesn’t make sense. dad should’ve expected college behavior from a college kid. if he wasn’t gonna be ok with college behavior in the apartment he pays for, he can pay for his kid to stay in a dorm where it’s designated for college behavior lmao. also, maybe don’t have kids if you don’t want to support them actually growing up?
