This is Winston Churchill visiting the White House during World War II. Funny how he isn’t wearing a suit either. Almost like he was a wartime leader defending his country from being slaughtered and wiped out by an authoritarian aggressor.

Zelenskyy: "It's not just that the war began somewhere between our countries. The war began when Russia brought this war to our country. They're not right. They didn't respect our territorial integrity. They brought the war to our families. Ukrainians want to hear a position of the US on our side"

To be clear: Vance and Trump blew this up on purpose. Yet another gift to Putin. Pathetic.

Russia does not want to end the war, and the Trump administration has shown no ability to induce Russia to end the war. And so, predictably, the Trump administration blames the victim, blames Ukraine.

More than 20 civilian employees resigned in protest of DOGE, the twist being that they worked for DOGE itself. "We will not use our skills to compromise core government systems, jeopardize Americans' sensitive data, or dismantle critical public services," they wrote. (AP)

Holy shit. This is scary. Senator Chris Murphy just revealed on the Senate floor that Republicans now have the votes to cut $2 trillion in services for seniors on Medicare and kids on Medicaid. Tomorrow is the House’s vote. $2 TRILLION IN CUTS. The worst part 👇

Trump/Russia pays off for Putin again as Trump says Ukraine “started it,” spouting Moscow’s biggest lie. Trump/Russia was never a “hoax”; it is and always was real.

Billionaires are trying to close our public schools with something called private school vouchers. They say it’ll help poor kids go to private schools. They call it “school choice.” It all sounds so noble. But vouchers are the biggest scam I’ve ever seen.

A handful of billionaires now have unprecedented control over banking, the food we eat, our healthcare, and the information we receive. Many are now currying favor with Trump to avoid accountability and maintain their power. This is what oligarchy looks like.

Sadly, we’ve reached this point thanks to Trump and MAGA, but President Zelensky is probably right. Europe can no longer rely on the United States. They will have to build their own army and take care of their own security—which means they’ll be less likely to help us when we need them.
