Please read my latest reflection. There are lies we tell to comfort ourselves. Like Democrats who say we just have to wait two year and Trump will lose control of the House. Like those in Germany who promoted Hitler while believing they could control him. charlieangus.substack.com/p/the-reichs...

“A former senior Soviet KGB spy chief has claimed that Donald Trump was recruited as a spy by Russian intelligence as early as 38 years ago by his department, and given the codename ‘Krasnov’.”

Strong words from Dmytro Kuleba. I'm not sure there is a 'West' after the last 10 days of US bomb-throwing. But it's time for Europeans to realise that Ukraine’s success is our vital national interest too - we cannot leave Putin & Trump to destroy the foundations of post WW2 European security.

So the Trump administration deal is that Ukraine hand over $500bn of assets - far more than the value of US aid to Ukraine - in exchange for...nothing. Meanwhile, the White House is discussing developing economic links with Russia and readmitting Russia to the G8.

Anybody blaming Ukraine for the Russia invasion is a subhuman scumbag who is actively against human progress, development, and safety. They’re your enemies and nothing else.

Agree. Just wanted to add that I have been an editor/reader for three different litmags. Always thrilled when a working class voice appears in the in-tray. Working class writers - take up your place in the room.

Interesting analysis from Australia of the possible method behind Trump’s madness. Maybe it’s not so much Trump sucking up to Putin as seeking to absorb Putin’s dictatorship within a US sphere of influence over Eastern Europe? www.smh.com.au/world/north-...

#russia attacked another residential building in Kherson, killing several civilians. A young mother was killed in her sleep while her little twins are fighting for their life at the hospital. Trump wants to give Ukrainian to genocidal and sadistic Russian fascist regime.

We’ve had some great feedback on our report on Progressive Activists and are keen to work with orgs that want to get the best from progressive workforces. Though I’ve seen a handful of people have interpreted what we’re saying as progressives need to be more centrist and wanted to respond to that. 🧵
