I welcome the US-Ukraine talks in Jeddah, notably regarding a ceasefire and resumption of US intelligence and security assistance to Ukraine, but also in humanitarian field. The ball, as always, is in Russia's court. The EU will do its full part to achieve a just and durable peace.

First impressions on the US-Ukraine deal are that Ukraine has shown that its always best not to grovel, apologize or become desperate with Trump. He cut their aid, helped kill their people, and they kept fighting with their head held high. They made him look cruel and he blinked

Trump says Elon Musk's Tesla sales could "double" as a result of his work for him, citing the precedent of Goya beans. He lies that the Tesla protests are the work of "paid agitators."

The United States must convince Russia to do this [30-day ceasefire]. That is, we agree, and if the Russians agree, the ceasefire will start at that very moment - President Zelenskyy.

Wait, what? If someone has a green card or is visiting this country on a visa, they can be expelled from the United States for...being critical of US foreign policy and/or national security interests? (Which puts all sane visitors and permanent residents at risk.)

The Trump administration is trying to deport Mahmoud Khalil, a permanent legal resident of the U.S. who recently graduated from Columbia University, where he helped lead pro-Palestinian protests on campus against Israel’s war efforts in Gaza. Here’s what to know. nyti.ms/3Fhv7of

Ugly, ugly stuff from Mike Johnson. Mahmoud Khalil is an activist, a Columbia University graduate and a green card holder. Not a young terrorist. Not someone simply on a student via, either.

🧵 This is a perfect example of what I've be describing as disordered discourse, and it's threat to democracy. Politicians are afraid to speak openly about key issues. Why? Because disordered discourse has captured the system itself—forcing obedience, punishing dissent, and making truth irrelevant.
