NEW: A searing editorial in the The Kyiv Independent. “It’s time to say it plainly. America’s leadership has switched sides in the war. The American people have not, and they should speak up. “A president just disrespected America in the Oval Office. It wasn’t Zelensky.” @kyivindependent.com

Marco Rubio will spend the rest of his life in hellish shame for not standing up and defending Zelenskyy, condemning Trump and Vance and resigning on the spot.

Jim Acosta: I think the AP should consider whether or not to sue the administration… and the rest of the press corps should start seriously considering whether it’s worth sending everyone into the Oval Office, onto Air Force One, or into the briefing room.

Imagine, by the time Donald and Elon break up, Elon will have all of Trump's financial records and tax information in his back pocket. Then we will see all of Trump's tax returns.

While Musk runs the country, Trump had a productive weekend naming himself Chair of the Kennedy Center, picking the Chiefs to win the Super Bowl, canceling pennies, demanding Google Maps rename Gulf of Mexico, invited only White immigrants from Africa, and saved plastic straws.

@crampell.bsky.social Trump creates fake issues then fake solves them: “But in stoking these fights, has lost the trust of our friends. He has proved the United States to be an unreliable ally just when we need international help to rein in actual adversaries and threats abroad, including in China.”

How could this not possibly violate a slew of federal laws?

Reminder that some of Trump's first actions when he took office were gutting the FAA and freezing the hiring of air traffic controllers. Maybe this crash happens anyway, but Trump is making Americans less safe.

In May of 2024 Joe Biden signed a bill that provided funds to hire more air traffic controllers to remedy the shortage of such workers. In January of 2025 Trump fired the head of the FAA (because Musk had beef with him) and encouraged federal workers to resign. www.cnn.com/2024/05/16/p...

I love that a white guy was flying the plane, a white guy was flying the helicopter, and a white guy gutted the FAA last week but somehow the blame is too much diversity.

Trump wants to distract you from the fact that he gutted the Aviation Safety Committee and ousted the FAA administrator last week. Don’t let him.

submitted 29 days ago • 622 comments

To recap, Trump: -Forced out the FAA chief at Musk's insistence -Imposed a hiring freeze that reportedly included air traffic controllers -Fired the TSA head and gutted a key aviation safety committee -Blamed the DCA crash on DEI This is disastrous leadership.

Trump decried the fact that FAA hired controllers with a range of disabilities that he listed at the news conference. That program was launched during his first term.

If Biden fired a bunch of FAA officials and we then had our first midair crash in 16 years, Republicans would be holding hearings about it for 4 years and Fox News would cover every minute. But Mike Johnson's priority is making another Jan 6 committee to rewrite history.
