We are now seeing more day by day all the real reasons Trump has picked fights with Canada. He’s creating opportunities for Putin. And we know Trump doesn’t do anything without personal quid pro quo going straight into his own bank account.

Trump is helping Russia who is helping Iran attack and kill Americans. So that means Trump is knowingly taking steps to weaken the US and bolster Russia and its close ally, Iran. Does that make him a traitor? Let's have the debate.... www.timesofisrael.com/liveblog_ent...

Hours after President Trump announced a deal to buy Russian diesel, a Russian attack in Ukraine, on Saturday killed at least 20 people. The Kremlin said there would be no immediate resumption of discussions to end the war. Trump said Ukraine should “get a new president.” trib.al/6soAOJj

Figuring out why Ossoff is so effective is an interesting task. I think he's mastering a kind of stern dignity that is uniquely compelling in contrast to the clownish cruelty of the other side. I think the other person who's kind of hit on the same thing is AOC, though in a different register

Trump’s deal to buy Russian diesel from Putin just weeks before the midterms funnels money directly into Russia’s war machine. Trump is now facing calls for Congress to block the deal and impeach him. Meanwhile, energy analysts say it’s unlikely to even make a dent in fuel prices.

Paxton got caught saying the quiet part out loud: Trump’s Dallas convention “dropped our numbers.” Even John Cornyn is warning that Trump making the midterms about himself is hurting Republicans. So naturally, Trump is headed back to Texas. Because the solution to too much Trump is… MORE TRUMP. ☠️

Bensky: I had met one woman who had been to 42 Trump rallies—she’s very well known in the community. And she said that when Trump had said, “Are we still talking about Jeffrey Epstein?” that something in her switched. She said, “I can’t support him. I can’t support MAGA.”
