This is Marco Rubio explaining how the USA promised to defend Ukraine forever if they got rid of their nuclear arsenal left after the Soviet Union fell. This is why lil marco was sinking into the couch. He was hoping we wouldn’t find it…so don’t RT right now this very second.

❗️"This man is fighting for his country. A sovereign state has been attacked. People are dying. And all they care about is why didn't Zelensky wear a suit? I hate this country. I have never felt the way I do in my life," the American veteran recorded an emotional video.

If you include aid that’s been promised but not yet allocated, Europe is putting twice as much money towards supporting Ukraine. My @morningjoe-msnbc.bsky.social chart

About 70% of Ukraine funding is spent in the US, as we manufacture weapons to send to Ukraine or replace ones we donated from our stockpiles. Here’s where the money’s going. My @morningjoe-msnbc.bsky.social Chart

This presser was a horror show. Ukraine will not have US support going forward, because Trump and Vance are completely lost. Europe will step-up and this war will continue. Trump blew this bigger than any foriegn policy folly in recent history.

House Rs just passed the budget resolution, the first step in their process to enact a bill that'd kick millions off Medicaid & cut SNAP down to just $1.60 per person per meal on avg while cutting taxes for the top 0.1% by $278k - all while increasing the debt 🧵on what's to come and WHERE TO FIGHT

This vote was to start the process of the cuts. It WILL come back for a final vote. There are some chances to slow or potentially stop it. Need constant pressure on GOP Focus on GOP swing seats & key committees. Energy & Commerce is where the Medicaid fight will go down. Ways&Means for tax fight.

Having served as a Moscow correspondent in the early days of Putin's reign, this reminds me of how the Kremlin took over its own press pool and made sure that only compliant journalists were given access.

43% of social welfare recipients are White. 11 of the top 12 most dependent states are red states. Alaska is the most dependent on federal aid while California (49) and New Jersey (50) are least dependent, contributing far more than they receive. #RedStateMoochers

DEMOCRATS IN CONGRESS: there have been times when you controlled the House & Senate, yet Republicans still found ways to block your legislation. DO THAT TO THEM! And—since the GOP won’t hold hearings, go home to your districts & hold mock hearings yourselves. Let the people see what’s really up!

You’d think that the agency’s name—“National Nuclear Security Administration”—might have led someone to at least ask, “Hey, what do these guys do?”

Imagine how insane this is. Musk an unelected billionaire pres fired employees who maintain our nuclear stockpiles not realizing what these people do. Should Americans really trust him with our data he stole and copied 🤦🏼‍♀️

🚨NEW: VoteVets Senior Advisor LTC (Ret.) Alex Vindman sounds the alarm. SecDef Hegseth’s decision to block Ukraine from NATO is a full capitulation to Putin—emboldening Russian aggression and putting U.S. Troops at risk. This isn’t “America First.” It’s Russia First.

THIS is the version of the ‘farmer who’s about to lose his farm’ testimonial that you need to see. Here’s the thing—I don’t care if they admit they were wrong. We already know they were. But they do need to admit they were lied to—by Donald Trump. Call him out by name!

Don't let Trump spin you, he backed down on the Mexican tariffs when the market dropped out, GOP electeds finding a backbone to complain, and the WSJ calling it the "dumbest trade war in history". Trump blinked and embarrassed himself plain and simple.

It would be difficult to imagine a scene more thoroughly illustrative of the advanced moral decay of today’s Republican Party than what transpired this week, especially when one measures Trump’s actions against those of the president after whom DCA is named.
