A sliver of good news: About $250 billion of the roughly $300 billion in frozen Russian assets are not in American banks. This money could be released to Ukraine by the European Union, Canada, Britain, Australia, Japan and Singapore—and circumvent Trump’s betrayal. www.nytimes.com/2025/03/04/b...

Neguse: A member of Republican leadership supposedly told his caucus that a not a single one of them should participate in a town hall. Why? Because they are scared of their own constituents.

🔮Top military and deposed CIA people are not going to go quietly. The smartest ones will go to the independant press, who is less likely to reveal, spin, or kill the information. Between the two, mud will be flung strategically. 🔮🍿

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. Let’s respect these and other elected federal representatives who stood out these first few weeks.
