Germany, France, UK, and US lift all range limits on Ukraine’s attacks inside Russia. Moscow within range. Germany’s Merz: “There are no longer any limitations on the range of weapons supplied to Ukraine — not from the British, not from the French, not from us. And none from the USians either.”

Trump: "The drug companies are very worried that they're gonna fight. And that's ok. If they fight, we'll just say, 'We're just not gonna let you sell any more cars into the US or wine or liquor or alcohol' or something that's actually way more important to them than the drugs."

Chris Murphy: "Why did Trump choose these 3 countries to go for his first major foreign trip? It's not because these are our most important allies or the most important countries in the world. It's because these are the 3 countries willing to pay him off ... this is the definition of corruption."
