The Financial Times writes that NATO is considering a “more aggressive” approach and even a “pre-emptive strike” as a defense against Russia’s hybrid attacks.
Wow. And this comes after nearly four years of full-scale war in Ukraine.

Don’t forget that *Trump’s own lawyer’s argument* to the Supreme Court in the immunity case was that the check on the President using his immunity to order criminal acts was that those under him would not follow illegal orders. Now it’s a crime for lawmakers to remind servicemembers of that?
The President doesn't want you standing up and speaking out against him, so he's coming after me to intimidate all of us.
But I won't back down — and neither should you.
