Macron should ‘get moving’ on Ukraine diplomacy – Lukashenko

The Belarusian president has said he urged his French counterpart to engage directly with Moscow

Published 29 May, 2026 21:00 |

Belarusian President Alexander Lukashenko has urged his French counterpart, Emmanuel Macron, to take the lead in promoting dialogue between the EU and Russia, saying the Ukraine conflict should be resolved through direct talks rather than further escalation.

Speaking to journalists on Friday, Lukashenko revealed details of a phone call with Macron on May 24, saying he proposed a meeting in Minsk involving himself, the French president, and Russian President Vladimir Putin.

According to Lukashenko,Macron did not rule out such a meeting but said he would first need to consult with his European allies. The Belarusian leader said he responded by urging Macron to take the initiative,describing him as one of Europe's most experienced statesmen.

“You’re the veteran among Europe’s leaders. Today, you are the key player and the driving force in Europe,” Lukashenko recalled telling Macron. “You should call Putin, come, sit down, and talk man to man.” (He’s got to be bullshitting Macron.)

EU officials have for months complained that US-Russian negotiations on the Ukraine conflict have left the Europeans sidelined. However, the 27-member bloc has still failed to agree on who could speak for its interests in possible direct negotiations with Moscow, which Brussels cut off after the escalation of the conflict in 2022.

On Thursday, EU foreign policy chief Kaja Kallas claimed that Russia was setting a “trap” for the EU by encouraging member states to decide who should represent the bloc in direct talks with Moscow. Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov has said Moscow never rejected direct contact with Western leaders and “they can just call President Putin.”

According to Lukashenko, Macron had also expressed concerns about Belarus potentially being drawn deeper into the Ukraine conflict.

The Belarusian leader dismissed such speculation, stating: “I am not planning to enter any war. Why would I?”

Lukashenko also rejected claims that recent joint nuclear drills conducted by Moscow and Minsk signaled preparations for a wider escalation.

The drill in Belarus was focused on concealed deployment, long-distance maneuvers and training the troops’ ability to prepare for launches from unscheduled locations, according to the sides.

Russia stationed nuclear weapons in Belarus in 2023, following repeated requests from Minsk. It also deployed its nuclear-capable Oreshnik hypersonic missile system there last year. The Belarusian leadership cited aggressive Western policies as the reason for the deployment.

According to Lukashenko, Minsk would consider using nuclear weapons only in the event of an attack on the country.

(PS: since Macron can’t be elected again in France, he’s been working for years to get to be the head of the UN. He’s think he can lead over the U.S. and Russia, and maybe China, the three countries that knock down every stupid idea other countries suggest in the UN. It’s sad that most countries in the UN think they can rule superpowers.)

(Can you imagine Russia, a highly educated country being surrounded by country’s like France, etc. France dances their arrogance around, while Russia uses their education to understand how stupid the EU Continent is, and how badly they have programmed their people to believe what their leaders say.)

Ukraine denies to UN its drones killed 21 students

Kiev’s Western backers refused to condemn a double-tap Ukrainian drone strike on a packed college dormitory

Published 29 May, 2026 03:49 |

The “barbaric” Ukrainian drone strike on a Russian college dormitory in Starobelsk cannot be justified,Russian envoy Vassily Nebenzia told the UN Security Council on Thursday, comparing Kiev’s actions to the atrocities committed by Nazi Germany.

A total of 21 students, most of them young women, were killed in the attack on May 22, while 44 others were injured.

Speaking at a Security Council meeting in New York,Ukrainian representative Andrey Melnik dismissed the “so-called incident” in Starobelsk as “a fake story,” accusing Russia of spreading “yet another propaganda narrative.” US deputy envoyTammy Brucecondemned what Russia described as retaliatory strikes on Kiev as “obscene and unacceptable.” (WTF)

Nebenzia accused the West of turning a blind eye to the “cynical act of terrorism” in Starobelsk.

“What is particularly striking is the hypocrisy and cynicism of the European delegations.They usually rush to make accusations against Russia whenever it is politically convenient, yet in this case they have chosen to essentially ignore the tragedy and pin the blame on Moscow,” Nebenzia said.

The Russian diplomat said 51 civilians have been killed by Ukrainian forces over the past week, and 199 others were injured, including 20 children. He added that, over the same period, Ukraine launched more than 4,300 drones at civilian targets, including residential neighborhoods, schools, and hospitals.

Nebenzia stressed that the Russian strikes on Kiev on May 24 targeted “military-industrial sites,” including facilities involved in drone production.

“Let us reiterate what we have said many times before:Our armed forces do not target civilians or civilian infrastructure,” he said.

In response to the attack on Starobelsk, Russia announced thatit would carry out “systematic” strikes on military sites and command centers in Ukraine.

(Why is the U.S. lying about this?)

Everyone should read what this Exxon executive has to say about the oil price surge coming in the next 2 weeks…. 1/2

The global energy market is sitting on a powder keg, and the fuse is now measured in weeks, not month. Neil Chapman, Senior Vice President of ExxonMobil, stood before the Bernstein Strategic Decisions Conference in New York this week and deliveredwhat may be the starkest public warning to come from a major oil executive in years. His message deserves to be heard by every American who drives a car, runs a business, or buys groceries:

“Commercial inventories of crude oil, of liquids, think petroleum, gasoline, diesel, jet fuel,they’ve all run down. And running down those inventories has mitigated or offset, supplemented by the release of strategic petroleum reserves,which most of the Western countries have done. All of that has mitigated the impact. You can model this. We’ve modeled it. I think a lot of people in the industry have modeled it.

We’re approaching unheard of inventory levels. I mean, really, really low levels. You can debate whether that’s going to hit those really low levels in two weeks or three weeks. Once you get to that point, then you’ll see price shoot up.I mean, I think dated Brent, most people, well, a model would say dated Brent will shoot up. Once you get to that really low inventory level, up to $150, $160.

The models would tell you that. And then what happens is when the price gets to a certain level,demand destruction brings it back into balance. Prices go so high, it becomes unaffordable. And that’s what happens. And so we’re at that level right now.

And I think crude being in this sort of $90 to $110 for the last whatever it is, six weeks,has really been mitigated by running down inventories. It can’t last forever. So we’ll see what happens. And predicting this and the exact timing, it’s always a challenge.But that’s the way we see the picture.”

“We’re approaching unheard-of inventory levels. I mean, really, really low levels,” Chapman told the Bernstein conference. “You can debate whether that’s going to hit those really low levels in two weeks or three weeks. Once you get to that point, you’ll see price shoot up. Most people with a model would say dated Brent will shoot up… to $150, $160.”

That’s the Senior Vice President of the largest publicly traded oil companyin the world is telling us that we’re going to have $150 to $160 a barrel in a matter of weeks.

The Strait of Hormuz has been effectively closed since the outbreak of war in the Middle East earlier this year.With Hormuz tanker traffic still restricted, cumulative supply losses from Gulf producers already exceed one billion barrels, with more than 14 million barrels per day of oil now shut in — an unprecedented supply shock.

The IEA’s own data confirms the emergency. Observed global inventories,including oil on water, were drawn down by 250 million barrels over March and April alone— a rate of 4 million barrels per day — underpinned by the historic stock release announced in March by the IEA. That record 400-million-barrel coordinated SPR release by Western nations has bought time. But as Chapman made plain, time is nearly up.

Iran’s closure of the Strait has cost the market more than a billion barrels so far— the largest oil supply disruption in history, according to the International Energy Agency. Oil stockpiles have mitigated the impact so far, but that “can’t last forever,” Chapman warned.

The Buffer Is Gone

For the past six weeks, crude prices have been holding in a $90–$110 range.Most people took that as a sign of stability. It wasn’t. It was a mirage — a temporary equilibrium maintained by burning through emergency reserves at a pace the world has never seen.

North Sea Dated crude traded in an unparalleled range of almost $50 per barrel in April, with the disruption to Middle East flows triggering a surge in prices of about $16.50 per barrel month-over-month to an average of $120.36 per barrel.The apparent calm since then reflects ceasefire speculation, not fundamental supply recovery.

Chapman’s warningis precisely that the fundamentals are about to overwhelm the speculation. When inventories breach their floor — whether that’s two weeks from now or three — there is no more cushion. Once oil prices reach a certain threshold, demand will be curtailed, leading to a rebalancing of the market — a phenomenon that could rapidly manifest after inventories hit their minimum levels.In plain English: prices will spike until they become so painful that people simply stop buying. That is the “solution” the models predict. Demand destruction.Economic pain will be the only circuit breaker.

Coming to America

This isn’t an abstraction. Refinery crude throughputs are forecast to plunge by 4.5 million barrels per day in the second quarter of 2026, as operators contend with infrastructure damage, export restrictions, and lower feedstock availability. Fewer barrels refined means less gasoline, less diesel, less jet fuel — across the entire economy.

The IEA has been equally direct:resuming flows through the Strait of Hormuz remains the single most important variable in easing the pressure on energy supplies, prices, and the global economy.

There is no technocratic workaround. No amount of strategic reserve releases, no rerouting of tankers, no alternative pipeline capacity fully replaces 20% of global seaborne oil trade.The Strait has to reopen. Until it does, the world is drawing down its last reserves at a record pace— and according to the man who runs global strategy at ExxonMobil, the bill comes due in a matter of weeks.

The next wave of the energy shock is coming ’round the bend.

(Beattie just told the democrats to push hard on what Trump did with gas, right during the mid terms! Beattie I unusually appreciates your brilliance, but this article is nothing MAGA mostly, because they read you!)

The Economist suddenly changes its immigration tune…. 1/3

The Economist has suddenly figured out something the rest of us figured out eons ago…the immigration system is completely broken and rigged against the American people. (They knew this long before they are just admitting it for their use.)

After years of global elites lecturing us about compassion, diversity, open borders, asylum, labor flows, and all the buzzwords they love to force-feed us, TheEconomist is suddenly admitting that voters are right to think the system has been gamed to screw us over.

That’s quite the shift, right?

But before you think The Economist was suddenly red-pilled, let’s set the record straight: they weren’t. This isn’t some noble moment where the elites finally looked around, saw the disaster they helped create, and decided to put the American people first.

That’s not how the globalist machine works.

This is whatwe like to call “narrative management.” Elites can clearly see the public mood has shifted. Immigration is now a top voting issue. H-1Bs, asylum abuse, border chaos, mass migration, housing pressure, wages, crime, schools, hospitals, and America First, policies aren’t these random fringe topics the media can laugh off. They’re now mainstream for everyday Americans.

So The Economist is doing what the globalist elites always do when one of their little pet projects starts flailing. They’re trying to jump back in by calling out the obvious and asking the so-called smart questions. This is all done to make sure they get a front-row seat at the table when the “reform” chats start up.

That’s the big red flag warning here.

Globalists don’t want to fix immigration for the American people.They want to repackage the same system in a way that sounds more palpable. They have a marketing problem, and they intend to fix it.

The globalist machine is sputtering and losing speed. And they can hear the America First engine coming up fast right behind them.

So now these guys are trying to gas up and rejoin the race.

And that’s where this piece comes in…and the first admission right out of the gate is a big one.

TheEconomist admits the refugee and asylum system is a mess. They also admit that asylum has become a back door for scammers who know how to game the system and disappear into the country and find illegal work.

Of course, this is exactly what conservatives have been saying for decades, while the media called them racist and cruel.

The Economist:

The system is not working. Designed for post-war Europe, it cannot cope with a world of proliferating conflict, cheap travel and huge wage disparities. Roughly 900m people would like to migrate permanently. Since it is almost impossible for a citizen of a poor country to move legally to a rich one, many move without permission. In the past two decades many have discovered that asylum offers a back door. Instead of crossing a border stealthily, as in the past, they walk up to a border guard and request asylum, knowing that the claim will take years to adjudicate and, in the meantime, they can melt into the shadows and find work.

That paragraph is actually funny because of how late it arrived.

https://revolver.news/2026/05/the-economist-suddenly-changes-its-immigration-tune/

(Don’t complain about the red text, I could have done a lot more)

>>24661110

2/3

Conservatives have been saying this forever about the asylum system. These foreign scammers have used delays to their benefit. The entire process is one gigantic loophole. Foreigners have figured out that showing up and claiming asylum will buy them years inside a rich country, so of course they’re pouring over.

Generously, The Economist is now giving voters permission to say the system is rigged. How wonderful of them, especially since they’ve spent years pushing these rotten ideas down our collective gullets.

But again,there are plenty of red flags.

Globalists aren’t worried because Americans are getting screwed over.They’re worried because border chaos has fueled populism.KEk

The Economist:

Voters are right to think the system has been gamed. Most asylum claims in the European Union are now rejected outright.Fear of border chaos has fuelled the rise of populism, from Brexit to Donald Trump, and poisoned the debate about legal migration. To create a system that offers safety for those who need it but also a reasonable flow of labour migration,policymakers need to separate one from the other.

The Economist will admit voters were right. Because their real fear is something much bigger. They are terrified that movements like Brexit, MAGA, and other populist groups were born from the open-border disaster they helped create.

The people they screwed over finally found political power.That’s why this sudden “change of tune” is so suspicious.

They’re not surrendering the argument.They just have a marketing problem that they intend to fix.

And thefinal part of the article shows exactly what globalists want next, and again, red flags are flying.

They want to supposedly “restore order” at the border, so elites can have a calm chat about foreign labor, foreign talent, and the kind of “controlled immigration” system they want.

There it is…

The Economist:

Voters have made clear they want to choose whom to let in—and this does not mean everyone who shows up and claims asylum. If rich countries want to stem such arrivals, they need to change the incentives.Migrants who trek from a safe country to a richer one should not be considered for asylum. Those who arrive should be sent to a third country for processing. Ifgovernments want to host refugees from far-off places, they can select them at source, where the UN already registers them as they flee from war zones.

Some courts will say this violates the principle of non-refoulement. But it need not if the third country is safe. Giorgia Meloni, Italy’s prime minister, wants to send asylum-seekers to have their cases heard in Albania, which qualifies. South Sudan, where Mr Trump wants to dump illicit migrants, does not.Deals can be done to win the co-operation of third-country governments, especially if rich countries act together, as the EU is starting to.Once it becomes clear that arriving uninvited confers no advantage, the numbers doing so will plummet.

https://revolver.news/2026/05/the-economist-suddenly-changes-its-immigration-tune/

>>24661113

3/3

The politics of the possible

That should restore order at the frontier,and so create political space for a calmer discussion of labour migration. Rich countries would benefit from more foreign brains. Many also want young hands to work on farms and in care homes, as Ms Meloni proposes.An orderly influx of talent would make both host countries and the migrants themselves more prosperous.

The Economist isn’t suddenly America First. They’re not sitting around saying, “Gee, maybe citizens should come first.”What they’re saying is the border chaos has become politically dangerous for them, so the system needs to be repackaged to voters.

That’s the globalist machine in repair mode.

They create the mess, and when voters revolt, they admit just enough truth to sound reasonable.Then they try to take control of the reform process so the final product still serves their agenda.

Don’t fall for it.

Dems’ anti-ICE post backfires and turns into a right-wing ad for MASS deportations…

May 29, 2026 (a day ago)

Dems are having one of those weeks where you kinda feel bad for them.

Not really, it’s actually hilarious. From the “map wars” disaster to losing their coconspirator RINOs in Congress to this humdinger, things aren’t looking good for the Jackass Party.

Amazing. pic.twitter.com/YVv62wLDT5

— Bad Hombre (@Badhombre) May 28, 2026

But this latest flub could be one of the best yet.

The left is trying so hard to make ICE funding sound scary.But the problem is that deporting illegalsis now one of the most popular political issues in the country. Americans watched Biden’s border chaos in horror: all the grisly crime stories, overloaded cities, hotel giveaways, schools under pressure, hospitals filling up, and the endless pompous finger-wagging from liberals who live in gated mansions.

Americans are sick of it.

So when Dems hopped on X to try andscare everyone into hating ICE, it was a spectacular flopthat ended up sounding more like a right-wing ad campaign for more mass deportations.

When they post stuff like “Republicans want to give ICE more money,” they think sane, common-sense voters will gasp in horror.

Instead, people are reading it like…

Good. Where do we send more?

Here’s the post, sent from the official House Democrat X account:

House Democrats:

Last year, Republicans gave ICE $140 billion.

Now, Republicans want to give ICE $70 billion more.

Your taxpayer dollars are funding an out-of-control mass deportation machine.

— House Democrats (@HouseDemocrats) May 28, 2026

Great stuff. Thanks for the update, guys.

The best part is that Dems are trying tosmear Republicans with an issue that actually makes Republicans look strong. They’re trying to scare voters with the idea of some “mass deportation machine,” when voters are sitting there thinking, “Yes, please, and throw in some cold beers for those hardworking ICE guys…”

Sure, the anti-ICE crowd might be loud mouths online,but they’re not a representation of the American mainstream. Most normal people understand that a country needs borders, laws, enforcement, and consequences.They don’t hear “ICE funding” and think tyranny is coming!

Instead, theAmerican people think, “Hey, someone is finally trying to clean up the mess the left and uniparty created.”

That’s how this post accidentally became a pro-ICE/pro-mass deportation ad.

And as you can imagine, the comments section is absolute gold:

“Exactly what I voted for”

“Thanks for the update! This is exactly what I voted for.”

“Well,I’d honestly rather my tax dollars be used to deport illegals than fund an unaccountable NGO machine”

“We are deporting nowhere nearly enough. We are at a 1 or a 2 and need to get to a 9 or 10.”

“Conservatives should use this post in every midterm ad. It’s perfect and free advertising”

“An out of control mass deportation machine sounds dope. Quadruple the budget”

“Yes!! My taxpayer dollars are funding an out-of-control mass deportation machine!!!”

“Another 20 trillion to ICE, please!”

“Are the Democrats now doing ads for the right? cool.”

“Thanks, libs. This is the best news I’ve heard all day.”

“All I want for Christmas is an out of control mass deportation machine.”

“Your taxpayer dollars are funding an out-of-control mass deportation machine.It’s about fucking time.”

“Voters chose mass deportations and enforcement. Stop crying about it and get out of the way.”

The comments section just goes on and on with great memes and comments.

“Your taxpayer dollars are funding an out-of-control mass deportation machine.”

But for Dems, there’s no laughs to be had. They keep trying to energize their base with these fringe obsessions that the rest of the country has left in the dust. “Abolish ICE” might still excite the blue-haired activist crowd, but normal voters are done with open-border insanity.

At this point, Dems should probably stop posting on X.

Actually, scratch that.

Keep going, guys.

Judge launches inquiry into Trump-IRS settlement that led to ‘anti-weaponization’ fund. 5/29/26

U.S. District Judge Kathleen Williams asked Trump’s lawyers to respond to a call for her to explore the deal that led to the $1.8 billion fund.

A federal judge isdemanding answers to allegationsthat President DonaldTrump defrauded her court by filing a lawsuit against the IRS as a pretext to reach a settlementthat resulted in a $1.8 billion “anti-weaponization” fund to make payouts to his political allies. (That judge sounds stupid!)

U.S. District Judge Kathleen Williams launched the inquiry Friday, after closing the lawsuit on her docket last week.The Miami-based Obama appointee cited a request by 35 former federal judges who urged her to reopenthe case to determine whether Trump’s effort amounted to “serious misconduct” and an abuse of the court system.

It’s the latest wrinkle in a developing scandal that has drawn bipartisan outrage on Capitol Hill, multiple lawsuits aimed at blocking the “anti-weaponization” fund and demands for further investigation by government watchdogs and courts.

=Earlier this year, Trump filed a $10 billion lawsuit against the IRS over the leak of his tax returns by a private contractor in 2019 and 2020. The lawsuit immediately triggered questions about conflicts of interest: How could the Justice Department and IRS now controlled by Trump appointees defend against a lawsuit brought by their boss?==

But before the lawsuit advanced, Acting Attorney General Todd Blanche revealed that a settlementhad been reached. Instead of a payout to Trump, the settlement would result in the establishment of the nearly $1.8 billion fund to make payouts to people described in the settlement as victims of government weaponization.

The announcement generated particular excitement among hundreds of people Trump pardoned for their roles in storming the Capitol on Jan. 6, 2021, with many announcing their intention to pursue payouts. Police officers who defended the Capitol and former Justice Department prosecutors who pursued Jan. 6 defendants sued to block the fund altogether,with another judge earlier Friday ordering a two-week pause on its establishment.

A spokesperson for Trump’s legal team did not immediately respond to a request for comment.

In her four-page order Friday, Williams indicated thatshe’s considering reopening the case. She also noted the former judges’ suggestion that Trump’s attorneys knew from the start that their lawsuit had no merit and filed it solely to justifya purported settlement that the administration wanted to announce.

The judge added that a federal court rule requires attorneys to ensure thatcourt filings are “not presented for any improper purpose.”

“A party’s decision to file a frivolous lawsuit for the sole purpose of forcing a settlementmay qualifyas such an improper purpose,” Williams said.

The judge also noted that the former judges argued thatTrump’s suit appeared “clearly untimely” because it was filed well after the expiration of a two-year statute of limitationson claims of unlawful disclosure of tax information.

Although the settlement appears to have been hashed out between Trump’s private attorneys and lawyers at the Justice Department and IRS, Williams’ order Friday is directed at Trump, his sons and his company, and does not request any response from the government. She noted in her order that the government never submitted any filings in response to the lawsuit.

The judge noted, however, that the settlementappeared to run afoul of DOJ policiesthat require any settlements to be “specifically limited to the immediate subject matter of the claim.” Williams also pointed out that a settlement addendum that waives all tax claims the U.S. may currently have against Trump, his two eldest sons, and his businesses and trusts was signed only by Blanche.

(These judges are all incompetent enemies, and sound as stupid as fuck.)

Blanche shouldn’t have said anything.

Spanberger ripped over ignored ICE detainer after illegal alien with 18 prior charges accused of sex assaultDHS says Gov. Abigail Spanberger's decision to end ICE cooperation allowed criminals back into communities

May 29, 2026 2:59pm EDT

An illegal alienwith a lengthy criminal history has been arrested on sex crimecharges in Virginiaafter a federal immigration enforcement detainerrequest could have seen him deported from the United States.

Cristobal Liobardo Vasquez-Sanchez, 25, a Salvadoran national,racked up 14 criminal charges this year alone before his May 22 arrest on charges of sexual battery and object sexual penetration by force. The Department of Homeland Security (DHS) said it hadpreviously issued a detainer for Vasquez-Sanchez, but that request was denied.

At the direction of Democratic Gov. Abigail Spanberger, Virginia ended state agency cooperation with ICE andhas demanded judicial warrants where immigration experts say such warrants are wholly irrelevant.

Just days before Vasquez-Sanchez's alleged sexual assault,Spanberger issued an executive order adding further roadblocks for federal immigration officers to operate in the state.

Local reports say thatVasquez-Sanchez came across his victim in a parking garage stairwellin Arlington, where the alleged assault occurred. The victim was able to run away and find help, and the suspect fled but was later captured.

In January, Vasquez-Sanchez was arrested and booked on a violation of pretrial release conditions while he was out on bondstemming from another crime. The following month, he was charged with larceny.

On April 15, he was arrested and charged with public intoxication, assault and battery and assault on a law enforcement officer.Five days later, he was again arrested on a violation of pretrial releaseconditions.

Between April 26 and May 19, he was charged with public intoxication four times. Stemming from the May 19 incident, he was also charged with disorderly conduct and fleeing from law enforcement.

On Dec. 31, 2025, he was charged with larceny, and on July 19, 2026, he was charged with assault and battery, destruction of property with intent and public intoxication.

Despite the litany of charges, Vasquez-Sanchez was never detained pretrial, and instead released back onto the street each time.

ICE has now lodged another detainer against the suspect.

"GovernorSpanberger’s decision to end cooperation with ICE in Virginia has allowed criminals to be released back into American communities. When politicians bar local law enforcement from working with DHS, our law enforcement officers need to have a more visible presence so that we can find and apprehend the criminals let out of jails and back into communities," Acting Assistant DHS Secretary Lauren Bis told Fox News Digital.

"While Governor Spanberger continues to allow the release of pedophiles, rapists, gang members, and murderers onto Virginia’s streets, DHS law enforcement will continue to risk their lives to arrest these heinous criminals."

ButSpanberger's office says the state does support deporting violent criminals.

"Governor Spanberger has repeatedly made clear that violent criminals who are in the United States illegally should be prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law and deported. Under the Governor’s leadership, the Virginia Department of Corrections continues the long-standing practice of notifying ICE when individuals born outside of the United States are in state custody — however, this individual is in local custody," a spokesperson told Fox News Digital.

"Virginia state law enforcement agencies also continue to assist federal authorities in the apprehension of criminal offenders as part of task forces and ongoing interagency cooperation. As a former federal law enforcement officer who went after child predators, Governor Spanberger will always prioritize the safety and well-being of Virginia families and communities."

TikToker fired from job after praying for Pam Bondi to suffer 'worst case of cancer anybody's ever seen'

TikToker prayed for Bondi to end up with 'a hole in her throat'

May 29, 2026 2:07pm EDT

(Honestly don’t these people understand that this is a stupid thing to do. Stop wishing ill on people in public and even in private if you don’t want karma.)

A TikToker has lost her job after posting a video that appeared to pray for former Attorney General Pam Bondi to suffer permanently from cancer, prompting outrage across social media.

In the video, the TikToker says, "Dear MAGA Lord Jesus, please let her end up with a hole in her throat that she has to push every time she speaks. Dear God, if there is a MAGA God, please let Pam Bondi's throat cancer be the worst case of cancer anybody's ever seen."

The TikTok, posted by @glitterandcrossbones, which is currently set to private, appeared to have been posted by Caitlyn Aguiar, who had worked as an assistant vice president for the Inbound Contact Center at Jeanne D'Arc Credit Union since January 2024, according to her LinkedIn page, which appears to have been taken down.

Bondi, 60, who was fired from the Department of Justice in early April, has been diagnosed with thyroid cancer and undergone treatment.

In the TikTok, Aguiar continued, "Please let her have to take on the suffering that she's unleashed upon the thousands, millions, dare I say, of Americans in this country. Dear MAGA Lord Jesus, please let her end up with a hole in her throat that she has to push every time she speaks. Please, dear MAGA Lord Jesus…"

She added, "Please let this be the karma that she so justly deserves, MAGA Lord Jesus. Amen."

In a screenshot of her Facebookprofile, which now appears to be deleted, Aguiar identified herself as being employed at Jeanne D'Arc Credit Union, being from Massachusetts and as a "digital creator."

An X user from North Carolinareplied to Aguiar’s TikTok, posted by Libs of TikTok, and wrote, "My opinion: I can say one thing for sure…if there was someone like this at my Credit Union (and I love my CU) and I walked in to do a transaction and this was the only employee there, I WOULD TELL HER TO HER FACE IN FRONT OF EVERYONE THERE WHAT A HORRIBLE, CRUEL, HATEFUL, EVIL, DEMONIC HUMAN SHE WAS and I'd turn around and walk out.

"I would NOT trust that person and would NOT let her touch anything of mine. Been on this earth too long to deal with mentally deranged people. Who knows what stupid crap she would do if she knew you were MAGA/Conservative/Republican. NOPE!"

In a statement posted to its Facebook page Friday,Jeanne D'Arc Credit Union said, "Yesterday, we became aware of offensive comments posted on TikTok by an individual who was employed by Jeanne D’Arc Credit Union at the time of the post.

U.S. and Mexico Conclude First Bilateral Round of USMCA Review. (Carney & Canada is left out). 1/2

May 30, 2026 | Sundance |

Remember last weekend when we outlinedhow the sudden sense of urgency from Europe toward a trade agreement with Mexico?that agreement had little to do with purchasing row crops from Mexico,and everything to do with what Europe needs as access to the United States{Go Deep}.

The language being used by the United States trade office is specific. [SEE HERE] The first bilateral round of negotiations between the United States and Mexico for the USMCA free trade agreement has concluded. (Emphasis mine)

PRESS RELEASE – “MEXICO CITY — “Today, the United States and Mexico concluded the first bilateral round related to the Joint Review of the United States-Mexico-Canada Agreement(USMCA).

The United States concluded discussions with thegoals of reducing the trade deficit with Mexico and strengthening American supply chains. During this first round, negotiators discussed priority issues related toautomotive rules of origin, steel and aluminum, and economic security.

The United States and Mexico recognize theimportance of advancing cooperation to enhance regulatory compatibility to strengthen sectors, including medical devices, pharmaceuticals, cosmetic products, and others.

We will continue advancing these discussions on June 16-17 in Washington, D.C.,in addition to agricultureand a level playing field. Thethird roundwill be held during the week of July 20 in Mexico City.

The United States continues to emphasize the importance ofensuring the Agreement benefits U.S. manufacturers, farmers, ranchers, workers, service suppliers, and businesses of all sizes, and of addressing free-riding from third countries.” (source)

Currently, European automakers have billions invested in Mexican auto plants. Much of thecomponent material for those vehicles comes from Europe for assembly in Mexico. That was the primary focus of the Europeans in their trade agreement with Mexico.

According to information coming from within the U.S-Mexico bilateral discussion, President Trump andUSTR Greer are now changing the USMCA trade rules to require 50% of all automobiles be from American manufacturing. [The previous USMCA agreement was 70% from North America.]

When you consider EU and Asia component use in North American autos, and when youconsider this is a bilateraldiscussion between only two nations, there is abig difference between 50% of the vehicle made in America(bilateral equity) and 70% of the vehicle made in North America (old trilateral FTA).
