Sent out two free pieces yesterday. First was this, about two key pieces which need to be understood about how/why the Trump administration played a con on Ukraine and Europe. Not pretty reading.
Just sent out this free post on two pieces of the puzzle in understanding the Trump administration's fake pivot to look like they might help Ukraine. Trump was keen to make sure that seized Russian assets were not given to Ukraine--as always follow the money. open.substack.com/pub/phillips...

Hopefully, world leaders will begin to understand.
It's actually quite simple.
Doing nothing is murder. The murder of billions of people.
Meanwhile, all permafrost regions on Earth have become sources of CO₂ and our rainforests have become emitters, not CO₂ absorbers, since the coronavirus pandemic.

Current US Policy:

If you’re suspected of trafficking a small amount of drugs with no evidence, we will murder you, but if you’re convicted of trafficking an enormous amount of drugs with copious evidence, we will pardon you. Because we are currently a very stupid country.

Bernie Moreno, who is saying here that Republicans are the party of the working class & that Democrats are the party of millionaires & billionaires, is a millionaire who owned a luxury car dealership & used taxpayer resources for a joyride in his $3.4 million Aston Martin.

House Democrats released never-before-seen photos and video from Jeffrey Epstein’s private island — the epicenter of his trafficking operation.

Masks. Bedrooms. A chair resembling medical equipment.

A chalkboard labeled “power,” “deception,” “plots,” “political.”

Congressman Henry Cuellar was indicted for money laundering, bribery, and conspiracy, allegedly taking about $600,000, mostly from Azerbaijan, to influence U.S. policy.

President Donald Trump pardoned Cuellar, because Trump supports money laundering, bribery, and conspiracy.
Trump announces a pardon of Henry Cuellar: "I am hereby announcing my full and unconditional PARDON of beloved Texas Congressman Henry Cuellar, and Imelda. Henry, I don’t know you, but you can sleep well tonight — Your nightmare is finally over!"

TN07 is a story about gerrymandering: the GOP cracked Nashville into 3 districts when it redrew the 2022 map, destroying the Dem seat there.

Fast-forward: a section of Nashville, which just 5 years ago had a Dem representative, is now voting Dem by huge margins but it's been designed to not matter.

The majority of voters in Davidson County (which includes Nashville), voted for Behn today. However, thanks to gerrymandering, they don't receive fair representation. These underhanded tactics are fundamental to the GOP cult. Blue states can't afford to take the high road in redistricting fights.

Don’t misinterpret what happened in TN-07—

This was a big, fat, well-deserved ‘L’ for Republicans.

And they had to work for it.

And spend for it.

Aftyn Behn responded to the needs of her community. She is a role model for us all.

I used to think Republicans fell in line because they feared Trump would attack them in a primary election. Now, I realize it's much worse. They are physically afraid of Trump's supporters and the risk of violence.

Last week, ICE arrested and separated a father and son after a routine check-in. Six-year-old Yuanxin had just enrolled in the first grade at an elementary school in Astoria. Now he's in custody, alone. ICE won't say where. This cruelty serves no one. It must end.

Putin told reporters in Kyrgyzstan that he will kill every “last Ukrainian” if that’s what it takes to gain control of Ukraine’s eastern territory.

Endless Russian attacks for over three years haven’t been able to achieve that objective, yet Trump wants to reward a war criminal for murder anyway.
