It is 100% carrying water for the opposition to participate in this collective delusion that Dems for some reason need to answer for every teen who throws a rock rather than hold the Trump admin accountable for intentionally creating chaos and breaking the law to stoke violence. They are in charge.

This is the spirit of Los Angeles. This is California. Don't let anyone tell you otherwise. #FreeDavidEndRaids

shithole country

Panic in Yelets, Russia. The city is under UAV attacks again. Possibly the 'Energia' military plant which was targetted by Ukrainian drones in the last few days is subject to more attacks tonight.

According to Russian monitoring channels, a Ukrainian naval drone group is reportedly moving through the Tarkhankut Peninsula toward occupied Sevastopol.

This is the right approach — speak to them as you would an especially stupid child, spell out their crimes and your contempt clearly.

New article from me about polling in 2024/going forward. Are the pollsters who did the best in 2024 and 2020 on to something? Or are they just pushing their data toward Republicans and getting lucky when everyone else gets hit by nonresponse? Link: www.gelliottmorris.com/p/the-best-p... 🧵

Spot on. Trump's tolerance for Putin's games is seemingly limitless.

Within a short period of time we have gotten to a political system where SCOTUS has given the President broad immunity, and Congress says clearly impeachable offenses are "not my lane."

Moments ago, a federal court ordered ICE to release him from detention. The Trump admin has so far lost every habeas cause against those it has sought to detain and deport for pro-Palestinian advocacy. Only Mahmoud Khalil remains detained, as his case has proceeded on a slower pace than others.

No one gives someone a $400 million dollar jet for free without expecting anything in return. Be serious.

WOW. The Trump admin said they will review social media and deny immigration benefits to people saying antisemitic claims. They're even trying to deport people with green cards on alleged claims of antisemitism. Anyway, here's a tweet from an Afrikaner they flew here on Monday.

Turning the greatest republic in the history of the world into a shitty little personality cult dictatorship at breakneck speed.

We should be ashamed of ourselves for not appreciating him breaking the law. ✈️ 💰 🙏

Bondi was a lobbyist for Qatar. She has no business advising Trump on the plane they want to bribe him with.

Gradually but inexorably, the WSJ editorial page is coming to terms with the fact that leader of their preferred political party is, also, well, a bit of an authoritarian. Free link www.wsj.com/opinion/trum...

Coulter has a point, especially when you consider that upon receipt Cleveland began using the colossal neoclassical sculpture as a nonpublic personal transport—including trips to and from political fundraisers—and post-presidency used it as the primary ticket-sales driver at his presidential library

It's pretty funny Trump and his team did not realize that imposing a trade embargo on ourselves would initially be a minor annoyance for urban liberal professionals like me but a catastrophe for rural conservatives who transport goods for a living. They really have no idea how anything works.

Trump is the authoritarian personality in its final, ultimate form. In that sense, he is helpful, because tendencies that are disguised or muted in others are on full display with him. He shows what you get what you go down that path.

Increasingly, it’s harder to resist the comparison to Nazis.

Moscow is offended by the German ultimatum and rejects it. Moscow, you have now 5h.

Zelensky: Spoke with Erdoğan — discussed the upcoming meeting in Turkey aimed at ending the war. Grateful for his support and high-level commitment to diplomacy. Ukraine is ready for direct talks with Putin. Monitoring mechanisms are needed, and long-term European security must be ensured.

❗️We are ready for direct negotiations with Putin, — Zelensky during a conversation with Erdogan regarding the upcoming meeting with the Russian side in Istanbul The President said that Erdogan sees the need for a ceasefire the same as we do. Monitoring of the ceasefire by partners is also necessary

Putin calling his own proposal „political theater“ and then rejecting it, is even compared to the common Russian absurdity quite unique. Putin really thought that President Zelenskyy would refuse and banked on it. What a humiliation for Vladimir.

Ukrainian aviation continues to shatter Russian infantry to pieces — a MiG-29 wipes out two assault groups at once in the Zaporizhzhia region.

Why is Putin stalling for time, lying, and clinging to the war? The ceasefire will not play to the advantage of the Kremlin elites and Putin himself. Putin's power relies on war.

Whenever I see someone from abroad supporting Ukraine, I get all sentimental and so happy—like a kid. It just really means a lot.

"Moscow has remained silent all day regarding the proposal for a direct meeting — a very strange silence. One way or another, Russia will have to end this war, and it's better to do it sooner." - the President of Ukraine emphasized.

President Zelenskyy had his first phone call with Pope Leo XIV. This was the first phone call of the Pope with the head of another state. President Zelenskyy greeted Leo XIV with becoming Pope and thanked him for supporting #Ukraine&Ukrainians.

Trump is shutting down America’s truth-telling platforms while Russian disinformation floods our feeds. This isn’t just a policy shift — it’s a dangerous (and intentional) surrender. adamkinzinger.substack.com/p/silencing-...

❗️🇩🇪Germany is ready to support 🇺🇦Ukraine in the field of "long-range flares", i.e. cruise missiles with a certain range. Decisions on this issue will be prepared and adopted in the coming days - Government Spokesperson Stefan Kornelius

Always remember Trump is not looking to make a deal, he’s not mediating between Ukraine and Russia, he’s not going back and forth, etc. He wants Putin to succeed and would be more than happy to see Ukraine suffer.

Dear Americans, you are pretty close to having done irreparable generational damage to our relationship and your reputation. This is just crazy.

🚨🚨For those who believe (and it seems the correct inference imho) that #kremlin was working behind the scenes to orchestrate #brexit (a nation-dividing political event), this story is further evidence substantiating this narrative. 🧵 www.bbc.com/news/article...

A cool thing for Dems to do would be to list conservative organizations they would revoke tax-exempt status for (on the entirely reasonable line that many are not real social welfare orgs and are not nonpartisan). Might concentrate the minds of some Federalist Society (501c3) members.

I know, norms and all that, but the default Dem position should be: We think this is illegal but if the courts say you can do this then we are going to rip the guts out of the entire conservative movement. No more Heritage, FedSoc, etc. All of them lose their tax exempt status.

These conditions are long-lasting and have been bad for years. But with Trump supercharging detention, they are going to get even worse.

The President of El Salvador had doubts about the criminal connections of the people Trump was deporting to his country, but he got a few MS-13 leaders believed to be secretly working with him. “What Bukele is desperate for is to get these guys back in El Salvador before they talk in U.S. court."
