🇺🇦🇺🇸 Zelensky brilliantly mocked Trump, and the Kremlin’s plan backfired. Putin tried to use Trump to derail peace talks and cut U.S. aid to Ukraine. Now, with Ukrainian forces in Kursk, they’re desperate to shift blame.

Trumps Hunter Biden rant was all telling, showing a deep hatred for Ukraine and specifically Zelensky.If you understand that TASS was also invited to the Oval Office too, then you will also understand that this was a Russian tailored set up orchestrated to justify pulling support for Ukraine.

Everyone knows what happened here. Trump can only exist around people he can causally humiliate. Guys lie JD and Rubio. He wanted to do a ritual humiliation of Zelensky and Ukraine but Zelensky wouldn’t accept that and so Trump reacted like a stung bitch.

Magamerica: Full Boor

Some have disappointed, some have bad policy, some made big mistakes. But I’ve never in my life been ashamed of American leaders. Until today.

No, the meeting did not go badly for Ukraine. It exposed in the most undeniable, unequivocal way possible the pro-Putin commitments of the president and vice president. That was information Americans and allies needed to have clear before them.

Trump posted this “Trump Gaza” AI video late last night to Truth Social

🇺🇦 Three years ago tonight, hours before Russia launched it's full scale invasion, with 200,000 Russian troops massing on the Ukrainian border, Zelensky addressed the Russian people directly, in their own language. "If your army attacks us, they will see our faces, not our backs"

Be clear. $8 billion was an error. They misread $8 million! And it’s not saving. It’s cutting services, necessary research, assistance to millions here and overseas, and enforcement of laws that protect consumers and workers.

Holy Hell

The ad the Washington Post refused to run. You know what to do.

🇺🇦 AFU liberated Pishchane in Pokrovsk direction, — the spokesman for "Khortytsia" ❗️"A series of counterattacks by Ukrainian forces had some success. Russian troops were also pushed out of some other settlements nearby."

Strong rumor with credible sourcing: DOJ has put all of public integrity line attorneys in a room and told them they have an hour for someone to choose who will sign motion to dismiss and if nobody does, they will all be fired. The nastiest strong-arming in DOJ history by a long shot.

More prosecutors are resigning in order to not be used as a corrupt tool by Trump to bend NYC Mayor Eric Adams to Trump's policies by using personal threats of prosecution. So proud of these prosecutors - who are doing the right thing despite losing their jobs. www.cnn.com/2025/02/14/p...

Bove and Bondi are taking on some major firepower. Acting USAtty Sassoon clerked for Scalia and convicted Sam Bankman-Fried. One of the other two who resigned clerked for Roberts and won the Bronze star. And Bove and Bondi have chosen to dirty them up maliciously and unconscionably.NOT GOING AWAY.

Betrayal makes a pithy slogan to sum up Trumps deeds that will resonate with all Americans as consequences unfold - even his supporters are going to realize he’s betrayed them. Run with it Dems

🔥Rep Amos is on FIRE about the GOP Tax Scam. "This is a betrayal. Full stop. This is not some social policy experiment. Real people will suffer. It is a betrayal of our seniors. It's a betrayal of our families. It is a betrayal of the middle class."

"Trump will sell out 🇺🇦, implement Project 2025, & destroy 🇺🇸 democracy" is a straightforward, factually accurate headline that the Papers of Record could have run above the fold every day, from July to November. Instead, Biden was old, Harris didn't offer enough policy details, & something something.

The AP must refuse this but more importantly the rest of the White House Correspondents Association should back them. Boycott the press briefings until they relent, and if they refuse, walk out. There is no real use to them in any case. Trump craves attention. Deny him that and he’ll cave.

Just got a tip from a guy at the FAA. You'll never believe who is still getting new government contracts while all the contracts at the Department of Education and USAID and other agencies are being nuked from orbit.

Trump looks thrilled as President Musk gets most of the questions from the press today while he sits there

Vance and Vermeule beg the question when they say federal judges can’t block legitimate acts of state : the point of having unelected judges is so that *whether* acts of state are ‘legitimate’ “can be decided by someone other than the people who are undertaking them.” www.forbes.com/sites/alison...

At least $12 *trillion* from global oligarchs is hidden offshore in secret tax havens worldwide. And it is headquartered right here in the USA. Instead of cutting lifesaving programs like the VA, Medicaid, and food stamps, we should be cracking down on tax havens for the ultra-rich.

This is pretty shocking. Make sure you look in the lower right hand corner.

There's one plausible way Democrats could shut down the DOGE crime spree/constitutional crisis in the short term. And I'm pretty sure this is it. talkingpointsmemo.com/edblog/where...
