So let's get this straight: Russia just murdered over 65 people in Ukraine in less than 48 hours. Crushed a building on top of sleeping families to celebrate Putin's birthday. And today, the U.S. announces that they are lifting sanctions on Russian diesel and planning to buy some,

On the 10th anniversary of Russia’s election interference, the FBI Director —who called it a hoax—is flying to Moscow, as guest of the FSB. As I said to @sarahfitzpatrick.bsky.social: “Unless he’s going to warn them to stay out of our elections, and get out of Ukraine, he has no business there.”

Have you guys noticed that Republicans who were a rubber stamp for Trump for the last decade are now suddenly pretending to be defenders of democracy? Amazingly, Senator Thom Tillis is finding his courage right around the time his book tour is launched. How brave! Read my take at the link below ⬇️

What Timothy Snyder says here cannot be over-emphasized. Democrats must not only win, but immediately – announcing on 4 Nov. and beginning on 3 Jan., they *must* legislate and execute anti-corruption – even if Trump vetos them. We must become the party of anti-corruption and social mobility.

It was clear from the beginning that the situation on the USS Lincoln needed to be taken seriously. Instead of being honest about it and supporting our servicemembers, Trump and Hegseth denied and minimized what was happening. Failed leadership.

NYT has now independently corroborated all the major allegations against Susan Collins in the ProPublica report, including that investigators were prepared to move against her and then Trump intervened to shut it down. This put Trump in a position of exceptional and extortionate leverage over her.
