"In his first term, Trump failed to build a wall. He failed to marshal the resources from Congress, failed to gain a consensus of American opinion and failed at everything administrations do in a democracy to advance policy."

Usefully sober fact sheet on Ukraine. Please share with those who need it. understandingwar.org/backgrounder...

I've heard Trump tell the "Raizin" Caine story numerous times. It's incredibly telling about how he sees the military.

None of this has anything to do with effectiveness, or ā€œlethality,ā€ or promoting ā€œwarfighters," or any other buzzwords. It is praetorianism, plain and simple, and it is an assault on our military and our democracy. www.theatlantic.com/ideas/archiv...

Musk, Vance and their support for the anti-American, pro-Russian German far-right From Jamie Kirchik www.nytimes.com/2025/02/22/o...

Germans have been subjected to covert Russian propaganda as well as overt American propaganda - jointly in support of the far-right www.nytimes.com/2025/02/13/w...

"Hundreds, if not thousands of people" have gathered in London to voice their support for Ukraine. #3E #EndOligarchy #EndImpunity #UKprotests #StandWithUkraine

Rep Raskin has been great. Rep Ocasio-Cortez has been great. And Rep Frost and Rep Crockett. Senator Murphy. Maybe no one knew exactly what to do. But such people laid down a clear marker. Letā€™s respect these and other elected federal representatives who stood out these first few weeks.

Americans proposed that Ukraine concede half of the profits from its mineral rights in perpetuity... in exchange for essentially nothing. This is not a monetary proposition, let alone a "deal," but rather the demand that Ukraine become a permanent American colony. snyder.substack.com/p/recoup-the...

A rogue DOJā€¦ Pardons for Jan6 treasonous acts were inexcusable. Broaden the scope to include drugs, gunsā€¦and child porn manufacturing/possession of child porn? Abuse of judicial power. www.npr.org/2025/02/20/n... Criminals supported by bigger criminals. This is our country. #SheShed

Iā€™m telling you @hakeem-jeffries.bsky.social, please watch this. This is the energy. Not egg prices and book tours and strongly worded letters. Itā€™s time to take the gloves off.

okay, itā€™s time for me to finally weigh in: itā€™s probably a bad sign that guys are just doing sieg heils in public again

Iā€™m forcing the Senate to vote on an amendment to reverse Trumpā€™s layoffs of thousands of critical wildland firefighters. My colleagues claim to support our first responders. Time for them to prove it.

Democrats need to stop being embarrassed about their beliefs. We need to stand up for immigrants, for the trans community, against wealth inequality. When we try to move right to ā€œcompromiseā€ we only pull the Overton window right with us. Thatā€™s what has gotten us here.

If Judge Ho doesnā€™t dismiss, he can & SHOULD demand more information Trump-appointee Sassoon & 6 other senior officials walked out ā€” this thing reeks! And Ho should investigate the ethics issues, particularly DOJā€™s Emil Bove, who led this I discussed @cnnsitroom.bsky.social
