“This is not America having priorities that don’t involve Europe. It is not isolationism. It is America taking sides with Russia against Europe, because one of America’s two political parties now sees Russian autocracy as preferable to European democracy.”

🇺🇦 NYT reveals Ukraine peace plan: it contains a number of proposals that Russia is unlikely to accept.
The document removes the provision on withdrawal from any territories that Ukraine controls, and also cancels the requirement to renounce the country's right to join NATO.

It's probably a pipe dream, but I hope that the language Trump uses (especially when talking to or about women) doesn't just become an accepted thing in political discourse in our country.

Muscovy is a declining empire. Putin puppet Trump has tied the United States to Moscow so it shares in that decline.
Trump is in steep cognitive decline. Given that Americans have unwisely given him unchecked executive power, the United States declines along with Trump.
