🔥🔥 Ukrainian drones struck Russia’s Samara oil pumping station this morning, setting it ablaze. The facility is a key hub on the Druzhba and Kuibyshev–Tikhoretsk pipelines, mixing and transporting Kazakh and Siberian oil west for export.

Trump fired Western Washington's U.S. attorney less than an hour after he was sworn in. Today a judge put him back. The president doesn't get to ignore the law to install his loyalists. This is a win for our democracy.

Senior leaders at Customs and Border Protection were left out of the decision to use their agency’s funds for a national ad campaign featuring Trump. They found out from a news report. Trump isn’t smart enough to come up with this himself. Our guess? Stephen Miller.
