When this agreement was made, Great Britain and America, promised they would support Ukraine, unconditionally, no matter what, If Russia invaded the Country. Great Britain is the only one who has kept their promise. Trump is Krasnov, the GOP needs to remove him.

And there it is. Thanks to the Zelensky ambush, Trump's approval and disapproval ratings have met and are about to cross. Another silver lining, albeit for something that should have happened a LOT sooner. projects.fivethirtyeight.com/polls/approv...

All over the world, the same strategy is used: First, starve a public agency for funds year after year, until their infrastructure is crumbling, they're understaffed, and inefficiency and/or accidents are inevitable. Then declare that the agency is so inefficient that it must be privatized.

Wow, I forgot completely that Prince Charles is officially Canada's head of state. He's stayed quiet on Trump's threats to Canada's sovereignty, so Trudeau had an audience today. Meanwhile, this is Trudeau's last week in office. High stakes!

Question: Why aren't ALL countries decrying Israel's food blockade of Gaza? I mean, I know WE'RE now officially evil, but there are almost 200 other countries out there. And Netanyahu's claim that Hamas is stealing the aid to resell and finance their military operation... SOME food > NO food!

We are experiencing an assault on science unparalleled by anything I’ve seen in my life. It’s not one issue or another anymore, the entire institution is under attack by the most powerful individuals in the country. This Friday, where will you be? standupforscience2025.org

Something missing from coverage of the Zelenskyy White House visit is the fact that Putin has already offered Trump Ukraine's minerals, plus a deal on Russia's minerals and more. President Transactional liked that offer better. He just needed a way to get out of the deal he promised to Ukraine.

From effing NEWSMAX! "Hegseth's order may lessen the nation's ability to protect private sector digital infrastructure both at home and abroad as U.S. Cyber Command has played a critical role in counteracting Russia's cyber offensive strategy."

Milei, Orbán, Bolsonaro, Suk-yeol... These are some of the men who've followed Trump's anti-immigrant, anti-LGBT+, anti-feminist, climate denial lead. A large body of research shows that thin-skinned men who feel that their masculinity is somehow threatened gravitate towards these reactionary ideas.

Talk about resilience! But heartbreaking. Celebrating the start of Ramadan surrounded by rubble, as Israel once again cuts off food aid.

I got laid off today, with the rest of 18F. 18F was an elite federal software shop. We made gov't websites work better, more efficiently for the American people. We saved taxpayers from getting screwed over by contractors. And were fired for it. We made this website to tell our story: 18f.org

Trump claims that the fewest number of illegal crossings in history are happening at our southern border thanks to him. At the same time, he justifies sending up to 3,000 troops there by claiming an invasion. This is not about immigrants. Why send a Stryker Brigade and an Aviation Battalion?

"We have witnessed Friday the biggest crap circus ever shown on live TV, by the sitting president of the United States and his vice president. Great respect to the President of Ukraine for controlling himself and for staying calm ... This made us nauseous."

The man without a soul, Roy Cohn, taught Trump his playbook. You're not seeing stupidity. You're seeing a tactic. "Roy Cohn showed him that you can turn around a situation by just ignoring the facts and going after your attacker."

The headlines about yesterday's ambush of Zelenskyy sicken me. They declare a "row", "spat", "aggressive exchange", "hostile meeting" and so on. Only the AP is honest, with "Trump’s Oval Office thrashing". It reminds me of how police violence at protests is usually reported as "violence broke out".

The Authoritarian Playbook: Give the mob people to hate... people who are more or less powerless. Then set the mob in motion. While they're distracted, take everything they have.

Let's be clear... The SSA didn't request that 7,000 personnel be cut. Russell Vought / Elon Musk did. They have fewer staff to handle more claims now, and it's about to get way worse. federalnewsnetwork.com/workforce/20...

It's weird that I saw this just after I noticed that the State Department has an office at 666 5th Avenue in NYC.

The intensity of my rage at the ambush today of Volodymyr Zelensky surprised even me. No-one else in that room had even one cell with as much courage and patriotism. He's not perfect... No-one is. But he fights for his country, rather than destroying it.

Keep up the pressure on Tesla, BUT understand that SpaceX / Starlink is Elon's new cash cow. THAT'S why he's not protesting the removal of EV chargers at federal facilities... that and the fact that power is more intoxicating than money, especially for a guy who was a teenage loser.

TOMORROW! Buy local only. And yes, one day CAN make a difference. Our primary value to billionaires is as consumers. Time to flex our muscles!

We may hate them, but Musk and Vought are very intelligent men. They HAVE to know that what they're doing is starting to wreck what was a very good economy back in January. So it's not about savings, or fraud, or even the deficit. There's a completely different end game here.
