Notice the strategic choice of the Europeans to hurt red states producing whisky. Trump, not understanding the concept of strategy, threatens to protect blue states' wine industry in retaliation.
Hope y'all have stockpiled your grand cru and brandy

Trump says he spoke to Putin repeatedly about wanting "the apple if his eye", the Ukraine, during Trump I.
Did Donald Trump just admit talking to Putin about invading Ukraine before it happened?

Meh. This is the key sentence. Until we see those plans I’m gonna interpret this as Rubio’s team leaking to counteract his humiliating couch moment.

This is Marco Rubio explaining how the USA promised to defend Ukraine forever if they got rid of their nuclear arsenal left after the Soviet Union fell.

This is why lil marco was sinking into the couch. He was hoping we wouldn’t find it…so don’t RT right now this very second.

Complaining about "Division" is always the excuse white folks have to describe social justice for POC. You see, from Tommy's point of view, there was no "division" before the Civil Rights Movement or equal protection laws.

It's possible that Tuberville thinks that he's senator for 1960 Alabama.

No, the fundamental difference is Democrats respect science and what their president to be advised by experts. Then, he or she makes the decision. The only inflected bureaucrat making decisions is Elon Musk.
JIM JORDAN: This is a fundamental difference we have with the left. The left thinks, 'Oh, it's the career experts who make the decisions.' That's not how our country works. It's the guy who puts him name on the ballot.

RAJU: You're a coequal branch of government.

Medicaid portals are shut....yet 63% of residents in the country's 14,900 nursing homes are supported by Medicaid. A lot of Trump voters are going to find grandma and Uncle Bob on the street if this freeze doesn't end soon.

I predict Trump will offer to lift the OMB freeze on disbursements in exchange for something equally horrifying. Your job: predict his ask.
