Also the collective GDP of the EU + UK + Norway is around $24 trillion compared to $2 trillion for Russia. We have vastly more resources if we choose to use them.

JD Vance in the oval office

I think this is the closest many of us have ever got to seeing the real Trump. The only consistent thread in his entire unhinged rant was the love & praise for Vladimir Putin. Zelensky has more courage & dignity in his little finger than every member of Trump's regime & fan club combined.

You can own the billionaires. You can fiddle social media algorithms. You can sit in the President’s chair. You can lie & truth twist as much as you like. But when you’re a bullying criminal coward sat next to a true hero and a statesman - who you really are is obvious.

Volodymyr Zelenskyy is a great and brave man in a room pathetic, corrupt, self serving, cowardly toads.

In case there’s any doubt: - Trump supports Russia - Trump hates Ukraine - Trump hates Europe - Trump hates wars that cost him $$ - Trump wants to get richer from his presidency These are the factors driving his foreign policies.

The US cutting Europe adrift risks creating a strategic rival. Throughout much of US history the greatest threat to the Republic came from well armed Europeans. The costliest battles the US Army ever fought were in Argonne & Ardennes The US security umbrella isn’t philanthropy

To me, a Nazi salute means, "I want to murder your family." There can be no irony about it: It puts deep anger and hatred in my heart to see it done and I will never forgive anyone who justifies or minimizes it.

Having failed to exclude Zelenskyy, they sought to bully him. Having failed to bully him, they sought to bribe him. Having failed to bribe him, they sought to discredit him. Maybe they will get round him one way or another, but you can see how frustrated they are at him holding on.

So I've lived to see a US President condemn a country for not surrendering immediately to an invading Russian army.

"Do you even lift, bro?" Of course I fucking lift. I lift up my cat multiple times every day to kiss his perfect little head and tell him how special he is. Get the fuck outta here.

What is going on here? Why does MAGA hate cancer research? The Trumpists don’t look at a specific budget item or topic - they are engaged in a comprehensive assault against what they have identified as their enemy. In response, we must also develop a holistic view of their political project.

I wonder if JD Vance is planning to lecture his boss’s buddy Vladimir Putin on democracy and free speech. 🤔

America is facing a ferocious, feet-to-the-fire moral test, of the kind Europe faced in the 1930s and 40s. The cowards, drunks and quislings are already revealing themselves. The heroines and heroes too. This will pass, and when it does, we'll all remember who was who.

Donald Trump negotiating away a chunk of Europe to Putin, without Urkraine, or any other European country at the table, is obscene

A reminder: Vladimir Putin could end the war in Ukraine right now, just by ordering his soldiers to go home. No need for treaties or negotiations.

The curious thing about billionaires defying the rule of law and the orders of the court, is that their wealth depends entirely on enforceable legal rights: contract, property, and so on. Those saying court orders have no value need to be careful what they wish for.

The largest best functioning multi-ethnic democracy with the best institutions of higher education, the strongest military, the reserve currency, allies as far as the eye can see, and this administration wants autocracy, purity tests, purges, crypto, and going it alone. Hegemonic suicide.

1. I keep saying this, but it’s important to try to slow things down. It’s something that the Democrats really don’t get. You can win a war by losing every battle slowly.

The Musk salute is a classic of the Trumpian genre: they try for plausible deniability with some explanation, but believing that explanation requires wiping your brain of like a hundred other damning bits of context. The guy is a far right zealot who praises the extreme right. This isn’t difficult.
