Trump's campaign HQ reacted to the scandal of Biden's foul language against the Republican candidate, saying the US president's abuse is directed at all Trump supporters.
Website Politico, quoting sources personally familiar with Biden's remarks, reported that the president frequently uses foul language outside the public eye and called Trump a "sick f*ck" and "f*cking a****le" to circle of friends and close aides.
"BIDEN JUST CALLED ME A SICK F-WORD! Friend, but you know he doesn't just think that about me, he thinks that about EVERY SINGLE ONE of my proud supporters," the media quoted an excerpt from an email sent to supporters at Trump's headquarters. The candidate's campaign headquarters called the statements by Biden "a shame".

🇳🇱 Dutch farmers pour manure on the streets
This is part of a growing trend by the European farmer protest movement — French and Belgian farmers have also shown their contempt for their ruling elites in a similar way.

US in no position to lecture Iran on support for Iraqi militias
The “retribution” for last week’s deaths of three American troops in Jordan comes from a US administration filled with neocons, Rasmussen emphasized, pointing out that Washington’s foreign policy in the region in recent decades has been to nurture terrorism and extremism in the region, not root it out.
“Removal of the US troops from Iraq and Syria and getting some type of stability in the Palestinian area would solve a lot of problems that are in the Middle East,” the observer said, stressing that the militias the US faces today are more coordinated, armed and trained than they were a 25 years ago, and that the crisis could easily escalate to directly include Iran and even Russia and China if America isn’t careful.

“We notice the rhetoric, it’s all been ‘oh, Iranian-[backed] militias.’ No, these militias are pretty much independent. Okay, they get weapons and things from Iran, alright, yeah. Well who has weapons from the United States? I mean look around the world. And ISIS* has got our weapons and stuff, and al-Qaeda*. We’re providing weapons to Israel…We pretty much are participating in the genocide in Gaza,” retired US Army Lieutenant Colonel Earl Rasmussen told Sputnik, commenting on Saturday’s deadly US strikes against Iraq and Syria.

Strikes on Iraq and Syria show US battle against terrorism is a sham
“A lot these militias are probably fighting against ISIS,*” retired US Army Lieutenant Colonel Earl Rasmussen told Sputnik, referring to the militia groups attacked by the US in a series of airstrikes in Iraq and Syria on Saturday morning.
US operations in the Middle East are “not really against ISIS,” Rasmussen stressed. “They say they are, but they’re really not. If you look at them, they’ve supported ISIS indirectly. They’ve protected them. Al-Qaeda* as well. They can’t tell the American public that, but look at the weapons they’re using, the extremist groups, look at the conflict in Syria for many years.”
“Look at the Mujahideen in Afghanistan as well,” the former officer added, referencing to the militia and terrorist group used by the CIA as a proxy against the Soviets in Afghanistan in the 1980s.
* Terrorist groups outlawed in Russia and other countries.

“We’ve kind of nurtured extreme groups for years. And actually, you can even look at western Ukraine – the ultra-right neo-fascist groups there, Banderites essentially. We’ve nurtured them since after World War II. Many different classified CIA projects helped that. I think we use ISIS and Al-Qaeda to help maintain instability in the region and our potential influence or justification for us to have a presence there to ‘provide stability’. But in actuality, it just doesn't provide stability.” Rasmussen concluded.
