1/3. It should be astonishing, though it’s not, that the American negotiators want to begin from the premise that Russia was right and that Ukraine is not sovereign. Accepting the lies of the aggressor isn’t just unethical, it’s also unstrategic.

Pope Francis is apparently very ill—88 years old with pneumonia in both lungs. He's tough, and I hope he pulls through because the world needs him right now. His homily on Easter after Trump's first election is foundational to my values. I think about it all the time: www.vatican.va/content/fran...

What is considered “conservative” these days is pretty elastic, which is exactly the opposite of how conservatism has always been defined. Conservatism in the Trump era is not based on a set of principles, ideas or policies. It is a dead movement replaced by right-wing populism.

Extreme MAGA Republicans spent last year promising to lower costs. And lying about their connection to Project 2025. They have spent this year implementing the extreme Project 2025 agenda. And haven’t done a damn thing to lower the high cost of living.

JD Vance - If you believe any of the multiple federal courts that have ruled against you so far are exceeding their statutory or Constitutional authority, your recourse is to appeal. You don’t get to rage-quit the Republic just because you are losing. That’s tyranny.

If you were wondering what white supremacy looks like, it is when you deprive darker-skinned people in Afghanistan, who risked their lives to help American troops as translators, refugee status, but give it to white South Africans who only helped keep black people down with Apartheid.

Trump is delusional if he thinks it'll be easy to forcibly remove 1.8 million people in Gaza from their homes. We'd have to put American military members in harm's way. You'd have to expect casualties. The financial cost would be insane. He's out of his mind.

This is Justin Trudeau allowing Donald Trump to save face after his stupid stunt. Because Trudeau is the only adult in the relationship and he knows it is better for allow the Toddler-in-Chief to pretend he won concessions already agreed to than to tank North America's economy.
