EU Startled By Trump Troop Withdrawal From Germany 

EU top diplomat Kaja Kallas said the U.S. decision to withdraw thousands of troops from Germany had caught European leaders off guard.

Hey, Trump, Why Waste Your Time On Fetterman? He Already Votes MAGA.

President Donald Trump and the GOP are making Senator John Fetterman (D-PA) an offer they hope he won’t be able to refuse.

According to Politico’s Jonathan Martin, some Republicans believe that even if they lose four Senate seats this November, they may be able to hold on to control of the chamber by flipping Fetterman.

Trump Won't Stop Slapping His Face On Everything Because of Some Law.

Fifteen House Democrats told a federal judge last week that the administration’s use of President Donald Trump’s image on national park passes poses a direct threat to congressional power.

Rep. Jared Huffman of California, the Natural Resources Committee’s top Democrat, and Rep. Pramila Jayapal (D-Wash.) filed a proposed amicus brief last Wednesday with the U.S. District Court for the District of Columbia. The filing comes as an environmental group seeks to have Trump’s image removed from “America the Beautiful” passes, which grant entry to fee-based national parks and other public lands.

As of Monday, the court had not accepted the Democrats’ brief.

It Would Be So Trump To Buy Spirit Airlines and Rename It Trump's Spirit In The Sky ✈ ♱

President Donald Trump said on Friday the White House had given Spirit Airlines and its creditors a final proposal to try to rescue the ‌bankrupt airline, even as the budget carrier makes preparations to shut down if no deal is ‌reached.

"We're looking at Spirit. If we can help them, we will, but we have to come first," Trump told reporters. "If we ​could do it, we'd do it, but only if it's a good deal."

Trump added he expected an announcement later on Friday.

Q: On Spirit Airlines, it seems like other lenders are balking. They think they'll get bumped down in priority

TRUMP: Well, they will. We come first. You know what it is? USA first. America first. Including with airlines, including with Intel. We made an Intel deal, we made about $40 billion
