Trump denied responsibility but media reports have shown it was a Tomahawk missile that hit the school, a weapon that only the U.S. has,...

Today, after ten years of fighting, I have reached a settlement agreement with the United States Government in my case regarding the Russian Hoax FBI lawfare against me.Nothing can fully compensate for the hell that my family and I have endured over these many years—the relentless attacks, the destruction of reputations, the financial ruin, and the profound personal toll inflicted upon us all. No amount of money or formal resolution can erase the pain caused by a prosecution that should never have been brought.This ordeal stemmed from partisan government officials in a coordinated effort to pursue an innocent man as...

Robert Mueller is dead, but his toxic legacy lives on in the destroyed lives of the innocent victims targeted by the Russia collusion probe that bears his name. To understand why President Trump had no kind words for the former FBI director when he died over the weekend at age 81, you have to understand the human toll on the president and dozens of his friends and allies.Who knows whether Mueller, who had Parkinson’s, was in command of all his faculties when he was appointed special counsel at age 72? But the deep state evildoers on his team knew exactly...

President Trump on Saturday offered the remaining Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps the chance for “immunity” after a joint US-Israeli military operation wiped out Ayatollah Ali Khamenei and top Iranian leaders. Trump said the ayatollah’s supporters should back down now — or else they’d suffer grave consequences later. “We are hearing that many of their IRGC, Military, and other Security and Police Forces, no longer want to fight, and are looking for Immunity from us,” Trump said in a social media post. “As I said last night, ‘Now they can have Immunity, later they only get Death!'”
