Trump Hypes Cheap-Gas Scheme Secretly Built by MAGA NFL Coach

Evan Vucci/ReutersPresident Donald Trump has spent two weeks hyping a mysterious cut-price gas station chain secretly built by a pro-MAGA NFL coach. The outlets, branded the “Freedom Fuel” network, have drawn White House promotion even as their ownership has remained murky. Investigative outlet The Newsground has now identified that Freedom Fuels Network LLC was formed by Randy Brown, 58, a special teams coach for the Baltimore Ravens, alongside trader Yoni Gontownik, whose father appears to have ties to one of the country’s largest pro-Israel PACs. Brown was elected in 2007 as the Democratic Mayor of Burlington County, New Jersey, before switching party affiliation to the GOP in 2010. He left office in 2018 and has since described himself as a “proud Trump supporter.” The chain’s 24 sites across Philadelphia and New Jersey have been pumping fuel at 3.47 a gallon, even as one worker claims the gas is going “way below our costs.” The White House insists Freedom Fuel is “simply reducing their margin to make prices at the pump more affordable” and suggested that “others should follow.”Read it at The NewsgroundRead more at The Daily Beast.

Is Mt Rushmore Victim of Trump's Washington DC 'vanity' Projects?

As Trump spoke for America's 250th anniversary at Mount Rushmore, which features the faces of four presidents carved into a mountain, the iconic monument is badly in need of repairs. But a house report say an usual amount park fees are being used for Trump's beautification projects in Washington D.C.

They Could Still Tout It

ICE Killing Of Salgado Sparks Outrage And Protest In Houston

Protesters shouted “ICE out of Texas” after Donald Trump’s ICE goons shot and killed Mexican immigrant Lorenzo Salgado Araujo as he was on his way to work. Salgado was not a criminal. He had been in the U.S. for 35 years and was close to obtaining legal residency, his family said, as per Reuters. His son said he learned about his father’s shooting from a video on social media. ’I recognized him immediately, not from his appearance, but from his voice, crying for help as he lay on the street, bleeding out,’ he said, choking back tears,” Reuters reported. This is Trump's America, y'all. As Andrea Thompson posted, DHS has claimed that Salgado “weaponized his vehicle” in an attempt to run over an ICE agent as they were conducting a “targeted enforcement operation in Houston. That’s the same dubious excuse ICE used for shooting and killing Renee Good in Minneapolis, in January. Yet, instead of proving its case, ICE has seized the evidence and kept it out of reach of local investigators and has no plans to do any investigation at all. In other words, DHS looks to be doing everything possible to cover up Good’s killing.read more
