Trump tells supporters in a new fundraising email that if they don’t donate to him within the next hour, Democrats will steal their "tariff rebate checks" and give them to "illegals," that the country is "boiling over," and that only an immediate cash transfer to him can stop total disaster.

BS. Pure and simple
Trump offers Ukraine a 15 year security pact as part of Trump's peace plan. It's BS. Russia, the US and UK guaranteed Ukraine's security in 1994 when it gave up its nukes following the USSR collapse. Twenty years later, Russia invaded Ukraine. The US and UK did nothing.

The first part is a particular challenge. It isn’t just “progressives” who want to improve the fairness of the system; many “conservatives” share this goal. They just disagree as to what reforms would actually make things better.

I say lessened, because problems remain. Some feel that this is because the reforms need to be improved; better is still possible within our economic system. All that we need do is figure out what will work and then find the political will to implement it.
