I can very well believe it was generated by Russia. It heavily favours them. Plus why would the Ukraine want to add Russia to the G8, or block themselves from NATO? trump would. Putin would. Zelensky would not.

Maybe Rubio should give up all his other jobs he’s sucking at to actually focus on the ONE job he was actually confirmed by the Senate to do. He’ll still suck at it but possibly a little less.

Now, Rubio is denying it had anything to do with the U.S.

This is a major foreign policy scandal. 3/3

Per PBS’s Nick Schifrin, it was delivered to Trump envoy Steve Witkoff by someone representing Russia. Trump and the administration pushed it. They pressured Zelenskyy to accept the terms. Allies condemned it. 2/

Stunning development: Senators now confirm the Trump admin’s 28-point “peace plan” for Ukraine wasn’t a U.S. plan at all. It was a Russian wish list. Follow along. This is crazy. 1/

Pam Bondi calls Prop 50's success a "brazen power grab"... by the voters? Isn't that what democracy is about? What does she call what happened in Texas? The lunatics have taken over the asylum.

Remember: if a legal opinion is sound then it matters not how “great” or “distinguished“ the lawyer is.

And if it is not sound, it is not saved by the lawyer being “great” or “distinguished“.
Apparently, Stephen Miller cosplayed a “many great legal scholars” last night.

She doesn’t even try to hide that she’s a spokesperson for Putin serving in the US Congress. Post after post, day after day, echoing Russian propaganda. Truly sad that people in Pinellas County have chosen this as their representation.

It speaks volumes about the moral vacuum that is Alexander Johnson that he has this take on the COVID enquiry.

Not a scrap of humility or remorse. A disgrace.

Nigel Farage claimed that he doesn’t have a Russia problem - and then proceeded to hire this guy, who’s said Putin’s war in Ukraine is a “regional Slavic conflict” that he doesn’t “care very much about”…
Farage’s new hire won’t help his Putin problem
He’s got a new senior advisor... who has some pretty awful views.

Waiting for the axe to drop on Gill insulates the government from any Faragist crap about being unfairly targeted. Although he’ll probably try it anyway. I don’t think this story is over.
