Many Trump stalwarts have a peculiar, paid position as lobbyists for the People’s Jihadi Organization (Mojahedin-e Khalq), the Iranian expatriate group aiming to overthrow the government of the Islamic Republic of Iran.

Annapolis Massacre: A moment to Consider Trump’s Opposition to Gun Safety Laws, Hatred of Journalists
Many critics of Trump have been eager to tie his well-known hatred for journalists to the mass shooting of reporters at the Capital Gazette in Annapolis.

Why do Evangelicals Keep Falling for the Trumps and Nixons?
Newcastle-upon-Tyne (The Conversation) – More than 81% of the US’s protestant evangelicals voted for Donald Trump in the 2016 election. A year and a half into his presidency, they seem as dedicated to him as ever – and just as ready to make excuses for his decidedly un-Christian misdeeds. Many Christian rightists, among them “family […]
Americans won’t ‘Sit Up’ for Great Leader Trump, because They Don’t Approve of Him
Trump on Friday added to the astronomic tally of his bizarre brainfarts by saying of North Korean dictator Kim Jong Un, “He speaks, and his people sit up at attention. I want my people to do the same.” Politico’s interviewees are afraid that Trump is normalizing Stalinist tactics, using phrases like “enemy of the people.” […]

But it’s this video that’s gaining a lot of attention.

Is Trump’s Iftar Party for Muslim envoys an attempt to Sway SCOTUS on Muslim Ban?
Trump held an iftar dinner to break fast with Muslims on Wednesday. His guests, however, were not American Muslims but rather a select number of ambassadors to the US from pro-American Muslim governments. A survey of the Arabic press shows that this nuance is being ignored by the headline writers, who report that Trump invited […]
