I realize no one wants to hear context and "how we got here" when things are so knife-edged right now. But if we really want to make this a "reforming" moment we need to push for the reigning in of presidential power and authority. The problem is that both sides like that when they have it.

Trump trashes Zelensky as a dictator. Still has never said a negative word about Putin. Idk whether Europe/Ukraine has figured this out yet - but you are on your own. You have no friend in the current US govt & Republicans in Congress who said they supported you will say nothing.

President Trump said he will continue to restrict The Associated Press’ access to his events and news conferences until the outlet goes along with his renaming of the Gulf of Mexico in its reports. He acknowledged that the move was a presidential retaliation against AP's editorial policy.

“Absolutely heartbroken… I am a father, loving husband, and dedicated civil servant.” While Kevin O’Leary says “cut cut cut cut more” — as if 🇺🇸 is a business (it isn’t) — these are the people whose lives are being ruined by Musk/Trump to pave the runway for greedy tax cuts.
