Trump Is Destroying JFK’s America
Kennedy’s vision of a country built up through the service of its citizens is fundamentally incompatible with the vulgar cynicism of the current president.

Dear Europe, especially Germany,
Stop obsessing over what Trump will or won’t do. Hoping & praying America will step up so we don’t have to is dangerously stupid.
Step up yourself, destroy Russia’s war economy, & give Ukraine what they need to win.
Europe must defend Europe.
