Europe can’t rely on the strength of the transatlantic relationship to help contain Russia’s threat – it must lead from the front and be the true force of support that Ukraine needs. Not just for Ukraine’s sake, but for a free and sovereign Europe.

House Republicans released a draft budget that aims to cut $2 trillion in spending.
The programs impacted could include Medicaid, SNAP, and education programs.
Why the cuts? To finance another round of tax cuts for the wealthy and corporations.
It's reverse Robin Hood.

what??? I thought President Musk was going to tackle inflation on day one.
Inflation is now the highest it’s been since June.
Gas, groceries, electronics, appliances, cars, housing & utilities are all up.
Americans can’t afford to fly, dine out or buy booze.
And egg prices just hit a record high.
