DOGE engineer Edward Coristine, 19, is the grandson of a notorious KGB spy.

This is extortion of an ally: “The terms of the new proposal … call for Ukraine to relinquish half of its revenues from natural resources, including minerals, gas and oil, as well as earnings from ports and other infrastructure.” www.nytimes.com/2025/02/22/w...

Wait. It gets worse: "The new document states that the revenues will be directed to a fund in which the United States holds 100 percent financial interest, and that Ukraine should contribute to the fund until it reaches $500 billion....The US has allocated $119 billion for aid to Ukraine."

Zelenskyy should sign it and then refuse to implement it when he’s got what he wanted - just like Trump would do.

Stephanie Kelton - "We can, and must, tax the rich. But not because we can't afford to do anything without them. We should tax billionaires to rebalance the distributions of wealth and income and to protect the health of our democracy" France to introduce a 2% wealth tax on those worth over €100m.

602 Palestinian prisoners and detainees are to be released from Israeli prisons as part of the cease-fire deal, including 444 Gazans who were arrested during the war and are classified as "not involved in combat," according to several security sources

He nails it.

Something is shifting. They are still breaking things and stealing things. And they will keep trying to break and to steal. But the propaganda magic around the oligarchical coup is fading. (1/2)

In the depths of the Nebraskan winter, 2400 people came out to listen to Bernie Sanders in Omaha last night. 800 had to be turned away at the door. Over 190,000 tuned into the livestream. There is a movement to be harnessed here. @sanders.senate.gov (📸 Anna Bahr)

This is who Republicans just made FBI Director. Kash Patel calls for “offensive operations” to jail Americans who they consider “the enemy.” “We will go out and find the conspirators... Yes, we are going to come after the people in the media”

Keir Starmer is on course to facilitate the far-right winning not only the next election but he is actively executing far-right policies from the neoliberal playbook. Thread www.theguardian.com/global/comme...

The UK's anti-protest laws pre-legitimise far right authoritarianism. Labour must repeal them now. My column today. www.theguardian.com/global/comme...

Apple removes its Advanced Data Protection (ADP) feature from customers in the UK after pressure from the government. Very troubling news. ADP provides end-to-end encryption, allowing only account holders to view items such as photos or documents they have stored online.

French far-right leader Jordan Bardella canceled planned remarks at CPAC today, after ex-Trump adviser Steve Bannon made a "gesture referring to Nazi ideology," according to a statement to French news agency Agence France-Presse.

There will be retribution. The incoming FBI director published a book that includes an enemies list. In a weird, backhanded compliment, he told Steve Bannon that I am an “enemy of the Republican Party. www.democracydocket.com/opinion/ther...

white nationalist men are too emotional to be in charge

Never forget.

E&E News previously reported that NSF expects to cut up to 1/2 of its 1,500-person workforce. Scientists and Democratic lawmakers fear that losses of that scale could break the nation’s research and innovation pipeline, with disastrous consequences for the U.S. economy and American citizens.

Remember when America had friends? Like a month ago?
