I wish more folks had read Proof of Corruption (2020). It offers a full history of the relationship between Trump and Ukraine going back years. Trump has hated Ukraine since the 2000s—and beyond the events that led to his first impeachment also illegally withheld the Javelins he loves to talk about.

This is an older story, but worth keeping in mind through every step of the AI hype cycle. The whole business model relies on violating copyright law. If your business model relies on stealing your inputs, that's normally called not having a viable business model.

liz Cheney: Generations of American patriots, from our revolution onward, have fought for the principles Zelenskyy is risking his life to defend. But today, Trump and JD Vance attacked Zelenskyy and pressured him to surrender the freedom of his people to the KGB war criminal who invaded Ukraine...

Zelensky is a wartime leader watching his people suffer and die under Russian attacks every day. To be lectured and lied to by Trump and Vance, as they defend the war criminal dictator committing these atrocities, is unimaginable agony. An everlasting shame for America.

Trump and Vance’s meeting with Zelensky in the Oval Office today “gave the lie to any claim that this administration’s policy is driven by any strategic effort to advance the interests of the United States, however misguided,” @davidfrum.bsky.social writes. Read more: theatln.tc/SowY3Uin

Donald Trump is Putin’s puppet. He demonstrated that in televised living color in our Oval Office today by disgracefully attacking a democratic leader suffering a murderous invasion by the Russian thug. What a stain on America. Slava Ukraini.

Trump’s disgusting behavior in our Oval Office in the company of a genuine hero and defender of democracy like Volodymyr Zelensky may be the most disgraceful public behavior by any president in our history.

The idea that JD Vance—who has never been to Ukaine and chalks up his knowledge to shit he read on the internet—believes he knows more about the situation in Ukraine than the man who has led it for the past 5.5 years is a perfect encapsulation of the havoc this administration is wreaking worldwide

Our path on economy, health care, budget vs. Trump is pretty clear. Now we need to open up a second front - his betrayal of US and ongoing attack on our government. For he/Musk are breaking important things that will be very hard to repair. My latest, 👇 www.hopiumchronicles.com/p/little-cra...

Medicaid provides 40% of the funding for community health centers. Medicaid supports 2 out of 3 people in nursing homes. Medicaid provides health care to 41 million children. Trump and his Republican friends want to enact massive cuts to the program. We won't let them.

We know Trump & Elon are corrupt. We’ve learned even more in the past 48 hours: 🚙 Trump’s State Department tried to funnel $400 million to Tesla. 💰 Elon received $38 billion in government contracts, loans, & tax credits. 🛰️ The FAA gave a contract to Elon’s company Starlink, worth billions.

I wrote last week: It’s hard to imagine two groups being more vindicated by events than the resistance liberals (a movement largely powered by women) and the never-Trump Republicans. They were right about Trump and how serious a danger he was from the jump.

None of this has anything to do with effectiveness, or “lethality,” or promoting “warfighters," or any other buzzwords. It is praetorianism, plain and simple, and it is an assault on our military and our democracy. www.theatlantic.com/ideas/archiv...

Of course. But being the party standing up for those fired will mean a lot to those fired and their families. It will also show the country that they are trying to bring order to chaos. And if they can get any Republican support at all, that's huge leverage for March 14
