Cull the Democratic Party. Systematically chip away all the weak, corporate centrists and corrupt, gutless elected officials who refuse to fight and instead suck at the teat of the oligarchy.

These ICE thugs are now going into people's homes if they see immigrant workers, which is illegal by every law on the book especially the 4th amendment of the Constitution. In Chicago, ICE kidnapped two workers from people's homes while doing remodeling. People are pissed that ICE is doing this.

Bush’s letter feels like it came from another planet - one where political rivals were still countrymen, not enemies. The ink is only 32 years old, but the sentiment might as well be from a century ago.

The first batch of military equipment under the PURL program, an agreement between the US and NATO, has arrived in Ukraine, with more shipments on the way. Funded by allies, the initiative revives U.S. arms transfers to Kyiv from NATO stockpiles. Incoming aid includes Patriot and HIMARS missiles.

To understand what triggered the protests and the unexpected reaction in Ukraine, it’s essential to know the context - especially for those who don’t follow Ukraine’s internal politics. 🧵Thread: 1/ First, the protest isn’t aimed at the President personally, but at a specific law passed yesterday.

Trump took a big L this morning as he backed down China tariffs to a token amount. 30% is still rough for consumers, but it won't crater the economy. He was facing empty shelves, spiking interest rates, and de-dollarization as punishment for his ill conceived "plan." Hence the capitulation.
