The most important thing to understand about the recent history of Russian aggression against its neighbors, and especially against Ukraine, is that Putin is not a product of “Russia” or even of Russian nationalism. He is, in every way, a son of the Soviet Union. www.theatlantic.com/newsletters/...

Sure Trump fired the Chairman of the Joint Chiefs and the CNO....but they fired the top JAG's in the Army, Navy, and Air Force. Why would you fire the top lawyers in the armed services at night on a Friday? That's the part you should be freaking out about.

President Zelenskyy has been one of the greatest leaders of our time, guiding Ukraine through the darkest period of its recent history, rising up to Russia’s unwarranted aggression, being an inspiration to the Ukrainian people and ensuring that Ukraine’s voice is heard on the world stage.

Blumenthal: "What world is he living in? It is not only contrary to the facts and the truth but utterly despicable. A disgusting betrayal of a country that has bled and fought and died for freedom ... the president's surrender is pathetic and weak."

“But while Musk’s rampage has been covered, the scope of its impact remains largely underappreciated. Experts say it can’t be measured in weeks or months or even in government services affected. Rather, it will be felt over the span of decades and defined in metrics like intellectual talent lost.”

DOGE having access to Americans' Social Security data isn't just a major security breach. It's part of a deliberate ploy to cut benefits — using the false pretext of "waste and fraud" — and have Congress use the savings to give billionaires another giant tax cut. Be warned.

UNBELIEVABLE. Am I the only person who remembers who Kirill Dmitriev is? He was in the Seychelles in January 2017 plotting with Trump envoy Erik Prince, a Jared Kushner envoy, Emirati Crown Prince Mohammed bin Zayed and a host of shady characters who'd worked to steal the 2016 election for Trump.

A good moment to remember the Russia thing was always real. Trump's goal is to help Russia and Putin, always has been. He's trying to throw our democratic allies under the bus and America as well. Again, the Russia thing was always real.
