What an incredible piece of investigative reporting nytimes.com/2025/08/09/wor… NYT managed to get a reporter embedded in a Sinaloa Cartel fentanyl run. Absolutely fearless reporting by Paulina Villegas and Maria Abi-Habib

Poland's Embassy in DC told us President Trump wrote Poland's president Nawrocki a letter, which was relayed today. No idea of the content but one theory is that it's a formal invitation to G20 in Florida. Maybe it's about the drones though? Who knows.

This is a 9-0 Supreme Court decision from just last year.

Trump tells reporters as he wraps up his gaggle on Air Force One: "Fly safely. You know why I say that? Because I'm on the flight ... otherwise I wouldn't care."

Another violation of a NATO member’s airspace by Russia is part of the actions of its war machine. We remain fully united with Estonia, particularly in the face of the recent Russian provocations on Polish territory. We will not be intimidated.

He said he was going to get a briefing on that on Friday

Three things, all true: 1) Bagram air base provided the U.S. with a strategic foothold in the region 2) Holding it safely requires thousands of personnel 3) The February 2020 deal the Trump administration signed with the Taliban required U.S. troops to vacate Bagram

US President Trump was just asked if he would help defend Poland and the Baltic states from Russia if Putin continues to escalate. “I WILL,” he replied. When asked about the briefing on Estonia, Trump said: “We don’t like it. Video: Kyiv Post

There are no soldiers in Memphis yet.

Trump: Break it up, because it's too much liquid, too many different things are going into that baby at too big a number, the size of this thing, when you look at it, it's like 80 different vaccines

President Volodymyr Zelenskyy / Володимир Зеленський said Trump's information about the situation in Ukraine is very close to his own. He added that Trump's post is a big shift

Worth pointing out he was talking about the war in Ukraine, ie sending troops to Ukraine. The clip was misleadingly edited

I don't usually watch golf but seeing Europe schooling America at golf in New York at #RyderCup2025 has been very enjoyable in the current context

⚡️Viktor Orbán said on Monday that 2-4 Hungarian drones “either crossed or not” into Ukraine’s airspace, but added “Ukraine is not a sovereign country” and Hungary is not their enemy, so it doesn’t matter. Ukraine’s army said one Hungarian drone incursion reached 20–30 km deep.

Overheard at the Pentagon: "I am hoping at least one general holds up a sign over his head [tmrw] that says, 'this could have been an email.'"

Seems pretty telling that this White House - which almost never publishes readouts of calls with foreign leaders - published this one. Along with a picture.
