Pu's cheap lying stunt exposed the uselessness of any US security guarantees to Ukraine (or to NATO members fwiw). If Trump believes the aggressor immediately and unconditionally without any evidence, Pu can accuse Ukraine of violating the terms of any peace settlement and voila, no help from the US

Let's be clear, Danielle Smith is more than happy to placate Trump during the worst economic crisis facing our country than she is willing to work with Canadians. It's never country before politics for her.

Zero denial that she did what she said she did, which is solicit an enemy power to influence a Canadian election to benefit a federal candidate who was better aligned with that foreign power

The people Attorney General Bondi is calling “terrorists” have had no trial and no chance to defend themselves. We do not know who they are. Ignoring the Constitution does not make us safe. It puts us all in peril.

Please read my latest reflection. There are lies we tell to comfort ourselves. Like Democrats who say we just have to wait two year and Trump will lose control of the House. Like those in Germany who promoted Hitler while believing they could control him. charlieangus.substack.com/p/the-reichs...

Trump likes being #2, he likes doing the PR work, being in front of the camera, getting the adulation, but serving the boss. Musk will dominate him at home and Putin will dominate him abroad. He will deliver their lines, as he has just done for Putin in shocking fashion, and does for Musk every day.

On a cold December evening in 2021, during an OSCE meeting in Stockholm, Lavrov outlined what he called “a new security architecture” for Europe. And Trump, knowingly or otherwise, might now be implementing those plans.🧵1/5

"Each of Trump's proposed appointments is a surprise. It is comforting to think that he is simply a vengeful old man, lashing out. This is unlikely. He and Musk and Putin have been talking for years. The whole idea of his campaign was that this time he had a plan" snyder.substack.com/p/decapitati...
