Ocasio-Cortez’s future political aspirations remain unstated, though speculation regarding a 2028 presidential run persists.

Trump was not informed of the Ukrainian attack on Russia, and that’s probably a good thing. The reasons for excluding him from this sensitive information are numerous and stem from concerns about his trustworthiness and potential for jeopardizing the operation. His well-documented history of close ties to Russia and his propensity for impulsive pronouncements raise serious doubts about his ability to maintain operational security.
Trump was not informed, and this decision likely prevented the sensitive information from falling into Russian hands. Given his past actions and statements, it’s highly probable that he would have inadvertently or intentionally revealed the details to Putin.… Continue reading
