Pretty clear that Trump/Hegseth are doing everything they can to force Ukraine to surrender to Putin by withholding all US assistance while actively helping fund the Russian war machine to kill as many civilians as possible including kids. What a dark, evil chapter in US history.

It’s no mystery. Trump is now openly backing Putin because he’s preparing for what comes after his second term in office ends.

Katie Zacharia’s debut was one for the ages, reporters agog as she stumbled. Then things got weirder, as angry Trumpers blew up Swin’s phone. Elsewhere, the persecution of Ilhan Omar continued.

Look at the shabby state and increasingly authoritarian trajectory of the country and ask yourself if we can endure 2 more years of a lawless Trump administration wreaking havoc with no check from Congress, then vote accordingly. This is not the time for a protest vote or purity politics.

July 31: Russia is sharing intelligence with Iran to launch assaults on US troops October 9: Trump is doing a diesel deal with Russia (which can now use that money to provide intelligence to Iran in launching assaults on US troops)
NBC NEWS

EXCLUSIVE * FOR SUBSCRIBERS IRAN WAR Russia is sharing valuable electronic intel with Iran, officials say, as U.S. war drags on Russian satellite surveillance and signals intelligence are likely allowing Iran to better defend itself against U.S. airstrikes and refine its own aerial assaults, officials said.Donald J. Trump O @realDonaldTrump

a I have just concluded a highly successful discussion with President Vladimir Putin, of Russia, wherein it was agreed that Russia will immediately supply over 300,000 Tons of Diesel Fuel to the American and Global Marketplace, another 500,000 Tons during the month of November, and 1,000,000 Tons immediately thereafter. Additionally, based on the condition of their Diesel Refineries, Russia will then deliver, within a short period of time, 3,000,000 Tons of Diesel Fuel. Between our TOTAL CONTROL of the Strait of Hormuz, and this great announcement on Russian Energy, Diesel Prices for Americans and, indeed, the World, will be COMING DOWN, IN RECORD NUMBERS, AND FAST! Lower prices for Americans, especially our Great Farmers, Ranchers, and Truckers, is my Greatest Priority. This is a very big and important announcement. Additionally, it must be understood, that Iran will not have a Nuclear Weapon! Thank you for your attention to this matter. President DONALD J. TRUMP 117 ReTruths 323 Likes

That’s what I don’t think people fully get. When you move a team up, you definitionally have to move others down. But obviously every team is doing their own thing. Some people are more reluctant to move a team down after a W than others. I try to strike a balance and look at a team holistically.
