Survivors say they have received death threats.

Q: “Are you affirming you think Trump is a fascist?”

TRUMP: “That’s ok, you can just say yes.”

ZOHRAN: “Ok. Yes.”

I am both a patriotic American and a strident Atlanticist and it is for both those reasons that I firmly believe Europe should ice us out of NATO until we have our head back on our shoulders

NATO’s Hill allies are kicking into gear NATO’s defenders on Capitol Hill aren’t planning to let the Trump administration diminish U.S. support for the transatlantic alliance without a fight — even as the Pentagon moves to draw down U.S. tro...

Putin’s aggression won't stop in Ukraine, as he tests NATO's defenses by sending drones and fighter jets across the alliance’s eastern flank borders.

That’s why I’m pushing for the U.S. to work hand-in-hand with our allies to strengthen their air defenses and defend every inch of NATO territory.

Trump's New Ukraine Peace Plan Is a Nonstarter The full details are not yet clear but reportedly include demands Kyiv cede more territory and limit its armed forces, writes Ian Bremmer.

Ukraine firmly rejected Trump’s peace plan.

Zelensky emphasized Ukraine’s readiness for meaningful negotiations but will never recognizing Russian control over Ukrainian territory.

The peace deal demanded major concessions, including ceding land, giving up arms & halting NATO ambitions.

Until now I thought this so-called “peace proposal” was just another Russian info-op. Turns out it’s real and it’s pure capitulation. 🚫 Written by non-diplomats, it hands Putin a veto over #NATO and demands Ukraine give up territory he couldn’t conquer in four years of war. Why reward aggression?

The share of national income going to the richest 10 percent was lowest (and share to lower 90 percent highest) when union membership was at its highest. As unions have weakened, inequality has widened.

This is why we must build back union power.

JD Vance is the handpicked leader of the antidemocracy movement in America | Robert Reich Rightwing tech lords are betting that Vance will be the Republican presidential pick in 2028. They’re probably right

JD Vance has always been the long-term plan for right-wing tech billionaires to cement a dictatorship in America.

“Vance has been anointed by Thiel and the rest of the anti-democracy movement as the post-Trump president, tasked with replacing the US establishment with an authoritarian regime.”

Have you seen this man? In the wake of deadly floods in Texas, FEMA Acting Administrator David Richardson is nowhere to be found.

Texas was devastated by deadly floods. In the aftermath, FEMA Acting Administrator David Richardson is nowhere to be found. In any other administration, this would be an epic scandal. But with Trump, it's treated as business as usual.

Read my latest:

The ICE contractors and Trump donors CoreCivic and Geo Group aren't the only ones reaping the benefits of Trump's immigration policies.

Stephen Miller—who's invested upwards of $250,000 into the ICE contractor Palantir—is also profiting off of Trump's corrupt and cruel agenda.

Everyone should be prepared for the fact that whereas with Iraq, anti-war protesters were smeared as traitorous terror lovers, this time we will also be smeared as bigoted anti-semites.
