Pro War Dictator Zelensky’s Pleas For Missiles Go Unanswered By A President Pursuing Peace. Ukraine's Dictator did everything in his power to acquire long-range missiles from Trump. He attempted to charm the President with flattery, offer to trade Ukrainian drones for the missiles, he even wore a suit (albeit with a black shirt, no necktie but top button buttoned), yet Trump remained reluctant on the missiles, but did say Zelensky "looks beautiful." The main focus of the visit is air defense and our long-range capabilities,” Ukraine’s Dictator said Tuesday. President Volodymyr Zelensky departed the White House at 3:57 pm Eastern after his meeting with President Donald Trump and several U.S. Cabinet officials. The Ukrainian president was at the White House for about 2.5 hours and was escorted out by Chief of Protocol Monica Crowley. (Video)

President Trump Plays America 1st Hard Ball Plain And Clear on Maduro: ‘He Doesn’t Want to F*ck Around with the United States’. President Donald Trump didn’t mince words when asked about Venezuelan dictator Nicolas Maduro’s attempts to reconcile with the US before he’s removed from power, saying Maduro knows better than to “fuck around” with the US. “It has been reported that Maduro offered everything in his country, all the natural resources. He even recorded a message to you in English this Sunday offering mediation. What should he do?” a reporter asked Trump. “He has offered everything,” Trump conceded. “He has offered everything. You’re right. You know why? Because he doesn’t want to f*ck around with the United States.” The White House X account posted the clip of the exchange with the caption, “FAFO.” Trump’s terse words come as the US has carried out several strikes on drug smuggling boats traveling to the US from Venezuela, and follows news Trump had authorized the CIA to carry out covert operations inside the country, possibly in an effort to undermine Maduro’s regime. Meanwhile, the US is flying B-52 bombers off the coast of Venezuela in a show of force.

WATCH: Trump Calls  Leftist Democrats “Mentally Damaged” – “They Want to take $1.5 trillion and Give it to People That Invaded Our Country”. President Trump on Friday told reporters that the Democratic party is damaged mentally, pointing to their agenda that seeks to make Americans care for illegal aliens that invaded our country over the last four years. Lindell TV correspondent Cara Castronuova asked the President if he believes the Democrats will give him credit for ending the war between Russia and Ukraine, and he appeared to imply that they wouldn’t because they’re “mentally damaged.” “The Democrats are really damaged, mentally damaged,” he responded. “They want to take 1.5 trillion, with a T, trillion dollars and give it to people that invaded our country.” The government shut down at midnight on October 1 because the Democrats refused to vote for a bill that did not include $1.5 trillion in new spending with taxpayer-funded healthcare benefits for illegal aliens. (Video)

JUST IN: Jack Smith Referred to DOJ For Criminal Investigation and Disbarment. Former Special Counsel Jack Smith has been criminally referred to the Justice Department for a misconduct investigation and possible disbarment.

Blackburn demanded that the DOJ take action after it was revealed that Jack Smith spied on several GOP Senators. Joe Biden’s FBI – and later Jack Smith – spied on eight Republican Senators during the ‘Arctic Frost’ investigation into January 6.

Bullet Dodged: Attempt by United Nations to Force Massive Climate Tax Down the Throats of Americans Goes Down in Flames Thanks to President Trump. The corrupt United Nations’ attempt to force a major backdoor tax down the throats of Americans has failed thanks to the bold leadership of President Trump. As The Gateway Pundit previously reported, the U.N. this week was “poised to impose what amounts to a global tax on carbon emissions” — what the WSJ called “the ultimate in taxation without representation.” Despite lacking both sovereign authority and enforcement power, the U.N.’s London-based International Maritime Organization (IMO) could attempt to saddle ships with taxes ranging from $100 to $380 per metric ton of carbon dioxide that exceeds a certain emissions level. The Trump administration had threatened sanctions against countries whose U.N. bureaucrats voted for such nonsense.  Trump also fired this warning on Truth Social. “I am outraged that the International Maritime Organization is voting in London this week to pass a global Carbon Tax,” Trump wrote on Truth Social. “The United States will NOT stand for this Global Green New Scam Tax on Shipping, and will not adhere to it in any way, shape, or form.” “We will not tolerate increased prices on American Consumers OR, the creation of a Green New Scam Bureaucracy to spend YOUR money on their Green dreams. Stand with the United States, and vote NO in London tomorrow!”  Thankfully, the threats have paid off. On Friday, Secretary of State Marco Rubio announced that the tax will not be implemented. “This is another HUGE win for @POTUS,” he wrote on X.”Thanks to his leadership, the United States prevented a massive UN tax hike on American consumers that would have funded progressive climate pet projects. ” “Our country will continue to lead the way and put America FIRST.”
