No amount of support for Russia can end the war, because Russia is the criminal aggressor. A modicum of support for Ukraine could, however, end the war, by making it impossible for Russia to continue. This should not be a hard choice.

NEW: The Congressional watchdog released a report on Trump’s dangerous cuts to HUD, the federal agency where Americans go for help with their housing. The verdict: illegal funding delays, huge staff cuts leaving phones unanswered, and civil rights falling by the wayside.

Russia may intensify its attacks on Ukrainian civilians as Trump eases sanctions. This could be part of a broader US-Russian effort to pressure Ukraine into surrendering territory during future negotiations. A strategy used by Israel and Assad, max pressure through massacres.
