Vladimir Putin wants Donald Trump to believe that they have bigger fish to fry than Ukraine. All this is a fantasy designed to tempt America’s president into giving Russia’s leader what he wants in return for empty promises. www.economist.com/leaders/2025...

When you look at this crowd AOC is drawing today, here’s the part you should remember. This is Greeley, Colorado where GOP Congressman Gabe Evans refuses to hold a town hall. They should all be counting their days in office.

AOC, @aoc.bsky.social, making the case for free speech alongside universal healthcare is so KEY for the left, because it's time progressives reclaimed the mantle of fighting for free speech from the faux free speech warriors of the right.

Tonight an unbelievable 34,000 people gathered for our Denver rally to take on billionaires and win our country back. This was the largest political gathering in Denver since Obama in 2008. Also bigger than the 2024 DNC. And the largest ever rally in Bernie’s career (and obviously, mine too).

The United States of America is the only major country on earth that does not guarantee health care as a human right. The result: We rank dead last among wealthy nations in life expectancy. We must end that international embarrassment. Yes. We need Medicare for All.

I just hope the plan in the Senate on the CR isn’t to create the illusion of resistance in an attempt to placate the base before an inevitable surrender. Choose a lane, explain the lane clearly, don’t try and fool us.

I try to explain here what's happening. A bit of choreography to allow Senate Dems to fold without seeming to fold. They give up the 60 vote threshold and that's the end of the story. See below and the separate piece by TPM hill reporter @emineirmakyucel.bsky.social who gives more in depth detail.

The United States Military Academy has just eliminated all Cadet clubs and activities for POC. Most of these have existed for decades like the Society of Black Engineers. They were there when I was a Cadet in 1987. All of the religious ones remain. This isn’t DEI. It’s white Christian Nationalism.
