Trump hints at walking away from Ukraine and calls Europe ‘weak’ and ‘decaying’
US president presses Zelenskyy to accept his peace plan and recycles far-right tropes on European immigration

Europe live – latest updates
Donald Trump has hinted he could walk away from supporting Ukraine as he doubled down on his administration’s recent criticism of Europe, describing it as “weak” and “decaying” and claiming it was “destroying itself” through immigration.

1. #Flu activity is picking up in the US. A 🧵
5 jurisdictions reported high levels of flu activity to #CDC in the week ending 11/29, the week including Thanksgiving. It's conceivable that numbers could jump in the next few weeks, both because of holiday travel & reporting delays due to the holidays

Your Christmas tree's environmental impact has nothing to do with whether it's real or fake 🎄
Don’t stress about what kind of Christmas tree to buy, but reuse artificial trees and compost natural ones
Both natural and artificial Christmas trees have environmental impacts, but they’re not major. What matters most is what happens to the trees after the holidays.
