The worst part of this North Korean style sycophancy is that we all know Lutnick doesn’t believe a word of this and Trump knows Lutnick doesn’t believe a word of this.

A previously unflappable market finally flapped. A fifth straight Friday loss, this one a deeper but still orderly setback, digesting a slow-motion "growth scare" and policy flux. Cyclical, bank and small-cap stocks back to their Election Day gaps, sentiment mixed, froth being skimmed. New column.

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."

US threatens to shut off Starlink if Ukraine doesn’t sign minerals deal. Starlink is essential for Ukraine’s battlefield comms. This is the equivalent of FDR threatening to arm the Nazis if Europe didn’t sign over half its resources. Extortion. And utterly unforgivable. Hell awaits.

Threatening Ukraine is despicable. All of Ukraine allies must stand behind Ukraine and not allow this type of blackmail.

Democrats must make clear that, of course, we believe in changing government for the better - and show how different that is from Trump's destruction of government's capacity to protect workers, consumers, and families.

A defining policy battle is about to come to a head in this country. The Republican budget will force everyone - especially Congress and the White House - to make plain whether they are prepared to harm the rest of us in order to fund tax cuts for the wealthiest.

The Constitution gives Congress power to establish the U.S. Postal Service. It did, by law, during the Washington administration. Its status as an independent agency was established by Congress in law. USPS is wildly popular with the American people and its service is essential and irreplaceable.

The United States Postal Service is just that — a public service for the American people. No matter where you live, neither rain nor snow nor sleet nor hail, they will deliver. Any attempt to shutter it would take an act of Congress. Efforts to close or privatize USPS would cause undue harm.

Trump’s push to privatize USPS is a SCAM for billionaires. It'll lead to ❌ Higher costs ❌ Service cuts ❌ 600K+ jobs lost ❌ Threats to mail security USPS is a public service, not a profit SCHEME. We're fighting back. Information is Power! Like, Repost, Follow🔄⭐️💙 www.msnbc.com/rachel-maddo...

By the way, this is one of the issues where you might be able to make some headway with GOP reps if you live in a rural district. It has always been the heavily red rural districts that stopped them from destroying USPS in the past. Reps know their constituents depend on USPS.
