#Trump said Friday that a change in #power in #Iran “would be the best thing that could happen” as the “US” admin weighs whether to take #military action against #Iran.
Trump made the comments shortly after visiting with #troops in #FortBragg, #NorthCarolina, & after he confirmed earlier in the day that he’s deploying a second #AircraftCarrier group to the #MiddleEast for “potential” military action against Iran.

Prospects of #Saudi ties to #Israel elusive as #Trump seeks $1 trillion bonanza
When Trump lands in #Riyadh on Tues, he will be greeted w/opulent ceremonies, gilded palaces & the prospect of $1 trillion in investments. But, the raging #war in #Gaza has denied him one goal he has long craved: Saudi-Israel normalization.

The report, which is based on #TrumpInternationalHotel room records from Sept 2017 & Aug 2018, argues that #Trump violated the #Constitution’s foreign & domestic #emoluments clauses, which were designed to prevent the president & other ofcls from #SelfEnrichment at #taxpayer expense.
The #House #Democrats’ report cites several previously undisclosed instances in which the hotel charged the #SecretService rates that were not only above normal govt per diem rates but above rates it charged others -
During #Trump’s presidency, his DC hotel charged the US #SecretService 300% or more above standard government rates on multiple occasions, & at times charged the government agency more than it did other patrons — including a Chinese business & members of a foreign royal family, acc/to a new report released Friday by #Democrats on the #House #Oversight Cmte.

Florida's taxpayers wouldn't know about wannabe-sun king Con DeSantis's travel expenses, if it weren't for Tennessee's Open Records Request option.
"Seven agents from the Florida Department of Law Enforcement (FDLE), traveling in four different SUVs apparently rented by the state at our expense, squired DeSantis to a small campaign event in Tennessee on Tuesday."
Why wouldn't Floridians know as should be normal? Because his majesty ConDeSanting made his personal "lawmakers" enact a law, that declares all his travel records — even retroactively — to be secret.
Fraudulent Unfreedom of Information à la DeSantis & his parliamentary accomplices, to the disadvantage of Florida's taxpayers.https://www.sun-sentinel.com/2023/07/29/taxpayers-will-pay-dearly-for-desantis-bumpy-excursions-steve-bousquet/

IMO, if passed, this bill will decrease sales of #EVs. The #TaxCredit is a buyer #incentive. This limits buyers to specific makes/models. I’m for #AmericanMade, but as a #CoalBaron w/financial ties to #oil & #gas, #JoeManchin’s bill isn’t about American made/sourced components, but #SelfEnrichment.
