Trump’s misguided plan to import Russian diesel is likely illegal and unlikely to lower prices. It will, however, funnel billions of dollars into Putin’s Russia. There’s a reason congressional Republicans and Democrats alike are opposed.

The state may pronounce a death sentence, but someone else must live with carrying it out. The U.S. government has a special responsibility to not impose avoidable harm to the service members who will carry out Nidal Hasan's execution, writes @hettiealiano.bsky.social:

Trump’s big lie this morning unraveled FAST. Zelenskyy says the announcement was “NEWS TO ME.” Now a senior RUSSIAN lawmaker says he knows NOTHING about the deal—and suggests Trump is making fake announcements to manipulate oil prices.

Let’s all remember this when we vote in the midterms. Remember how Trump promised you the best healthcare in 2 weeks? He lied then & continues to lie about this to this day. In fact, with the help of the GOP majority in DC, your healthcare has been decimated. The GOP has failed you. Vote Blue!

🚨President Z is taking out “data centers” that run Putin’s bot farms just three weeks before the U.S. midterms. After the third strike on Yandex's data center, Russian bot activity dropped to zero. This is why Trump and Musk are calling for President Z’s removal. It has nothing to do with diesel.

It’s genuinely sad to watch. The President is so weak and incapable of negotiating a real deal that he just posts fake ones on social media and hopes people believe him, until every party involved puts out a statement calling him a liar. We’ve never seen weakness like this in the Oval Office.

In a normal administration counterintelligence agents at the FBI would be investigating this photo. In this administration, the FBI director is in the photo.
Michael Weiss: Why, that’s Ali Abdelaziz is on the far left. Manages a lot of Russian, Belarusian and Chechen MMA fighters including Khamzat Chimaev, who is close to Kadyrov. Abdelaziz was an FBI informant until the Bureau dropped him because they suspected he was a double agent. Looks like Ka$h (far right) has forgiven and forgotten. These MAGA weddings are Mos Eisley cantinas for counterintelligence.

Interviews with more than 30 current and former employees reveal the agency is now tightly controlled by Mr. Kennedy and his associates, and its scientists are finding it increasingly difficult to do their jobs effectively. (Some spoke on the condition of anonymity because of a fear of retaliation.)
The changes have hindered the C.D.C.’s ability to respond to outbreaks as measles spreads at home and Ebola abroad, and to issue timely guidance on vaccinations as cooling temperatures kick off the respiratory season, according to current and former employees. State and local health departments, which rely on the C.D.C. for resources and technical advice, have been stymied by delays. Entire divisions have been shuttered, including teams that worked on smoking, sexual violence, child abuse and falls among older adults.
