Donald Trump’s VP nominee JD Vance was accused of looking like Ivanka Trump in an alleged photo.
I certainly won't condemn JD Vance for dressing like this, but it does lend some credence to the rumors that Donald Trump chose him for his vice-president nominee because Vance reminded him of his daughter, Ivanka. pic.twitter.com/Jfn8iG38Ew

Former President Donald Trump recently summarized a conversation he had with Russian President Vladimir Putin during a Monday evening interview with billionaire Elon Musk on his platform X (formerly Twitter) via Mediaite.
“We would talk a lot about Ukraine. It was the apple of his eye. But I said, ‘Don’t ever do it. Don’t ever do it,’” Trump told Musk. “I said to Vladimir Putin, ‘Don’t do it. You can’t do it, Vladimir. You do it, it’s gonna be a bad day. You cannot do it.’ And I told him things that what I do, and he said, ‘No way,’ and I said, ‘Way,’ and you know, it’s the last time we ever had the conversation.”
The former president then took a stance against the accusations that he was friendly with Russia and Putin.
“They say I loved Russia, I was a friend of Putin, and I loved Russia. No,” Trump said. “He actually said to me one time, he said, ‘If you’re my friend, I’d hate to see you as an enemy.’ I shut down his pipeline. The biggest pipeline.”
Trump’s interview with Musk was plagued by technical difficulties on Monday, which prevented users from tuning in until they were eventually fixed.
While Musk blamed the issues on a “massive DDOS attack” against his social network, unnamed X staffers told The Verge that no such attack was recorded and that there was a “99 percent” chance Musk was lying.
