Radical centrist news junkie and trauma-bonded political spectator since JFK's assassination in my youth. Know enough history to know what we stand to lose. Hopeful realist, because there are no alternatives. We need another Roosevelt, R, D, or I!!!

"The call is coming from inside the house." Reuters has confirmed that the White House gave the order to disrupt Starlink so Russia could attack Kyiv with no advanced warning. Trump’s a traitor--a Russian asset who is using US military technology to help our enemy. www.reuters.com/world/europe...

Two US officials and a Western official say Trump’s White House instructed Pentagon to slow Ukraine’s Starshield. The sabotage took effect as Russia launched 39 ballistic missiles at Ukraine’s power grid, disrupting defensive drones & military operations.

Die, sell, we all dye for diesel! (BTW, there's no longer any "fig leaf" of American interest for him to hide behind.) My perpetual disappointment & daily disgust with him are slightly offset by the anticipation that each day of delinquent double dealing is one more day closer to his final end.

🚨 IOWA SENATE SHOCKER: Josh Turek is within striking distance of flipping a seat Democrats haven’t won since 2008. Trump carried Iowa by 13 points in 2024. But anger over the economy & the Iran war has transformed the race. A Turek win would help Dems take back the Senate. Let’s finish this. #Vote

Zelenskyy might be saving our democracy. The mad genius is bombing Russian data centers linked to FAKE NEWS bot farms. Without them, Putin’s midterm influence will accidentally fall from a 30th floor window. I 💙 Ukraine 🇺🇦
