This Russian democracy activist is right -- Ukrainians are dying for us and the West, and we are not nearly enough to help there. If it wasn't for Ukraine, Russian tanks would have been in Poland long ago. Our response has been a disgrace.

It is good that there is scrutiny over the Sept. 2 strike and the double tap. It's very good. But also weird that it took this long and that there isn't as much pressure on the subsequent 21 strikes, where next to or outright no evidence has been presented to justify any use of force.

Something has changed. A side of America that most Europeans never encountered face to face is now in charge. Europe had a decade of warnings and the first Trump Administration to prepare for this. We chose not to.
To meet this moment and secure our future, we must also change.

Can't believe our tax dollars are going to be spent settling the upcoming exorbitant defamation suit with Sabrina Carpenter, but maybe this is just how public arts funding is going to work now.
Sabrina Carpenter ratioed the White House after it used her song in an ICE video.
The WH deleted the post…but now it’s back with a new ICE video, this time using an altered clip from Carpenter’s SNL monologue.

Trump: "When you look at football in the US, soccer -- we seem to never call it that, because we have a little bit of a conflict with another thing that's called football. But when you think about it, shouldn't it really be called football? We have to come up with another name for the NFL stuff."

Drawing Red Line: Bipartisan Fury Boils Over as Senate Confronts Russian Abduction of Ukrainian Children
A rare moment of moral unity in Congress recasts Russia’s mass transfer of Ukrainian children as an identity-erasure campaign – and signals growing pressure on the White House to harden US policy.

Or put different, he’s pardoning people at SEVENTY FIVE TIMES the annual rate of the Biden presidency
So far, in less than one year, Donald Trump has issued over TEN TIMES as many pardons as he did in his entire four-year first term. That’s a lot of criminals released onto our streets.
