Half way through the Jack Smith transcript and it’s become abundantly clear why Jim Jordan didn’t want public testimony. Jordan spends a lot of time whining about the toll subpoenas, and Jack Smith shuts him down every time.

Fuck the Roberts Supreme Court forever for purposely delaying this trial to protect Trump. They are corrupt to the core.
Jack Smith: I believe we had proof beyond a reasonable doubt in both cases.

When politicians don't need to earn votes because they’re gerrymandered into safe seats, extremists can lock in power, and the will of the people matters less and less.

This is a fact.
5 yrs ago next Tuesday, an American president who lost an election but refused to accept the loss incited a violent attempt to overthrow the election.
Instead of being treated like a pariah, that president was actually voted back into the White House, a much bigger condemnation of us than him.

Having lived under Putin’s missiles & drones, it’s impossible to understand how Trump falls for this.
There is one aggressor, Russia, which started the biggest & deadliest war in Europe since WWII.
To end the war, the U.S. needs to do one thing: turn up the pressure on Russia.

An oppressive, tenuous peace would not be the product of clever diplomacy and well-crafted “guarantees.” It would instead be a product of Ukrainian desperation and Western betrayal: one for which we will pay down the road.

Trump has announced plans to build a new class of U.S. Navy battleships—named after himself. It sounds patriotic, but it’s actually dangerous. VFRL President Bobby Jones explains why resurrecting battleships is a fundamental misunderstanding of modern naval warfare.

Unlike Trump & Witkoff, most Americans aren’t seeking “amazing business opportunities” for US billionaires in Russia. We just want them to stop indiscriminately bombing civilians & end their barbarian war of aggression with their horde of convicts, rapists & foreign mercenaries.

The third paragraph reads as if the Russians wrote it. Maybe they did. In any event, it is an atrociously big lie; 1984-grade, as Aaron Rupar rightly says.
