Russia invaded Luhansk and Donetsk regions in April 2014.

Russia is so weak and corrupt it cannot occupy 100% of those regions after 11 1/2 years of war – even though Ukrainian defenders have no fighting allies.

Putin ordered his servant Trump to surrender Luhansk and Donetsk.

Remember: The recipe for economic growth isn’t tax cuts for the rich. It’s investment in our people — in health care, infrastructure and education — to build a strong middle class. 

You don't grow the economy through trickle-down nonsense.

Are Americans aware that down here in Mexico we’ve been getting bombarded for months with ads of Kristi Noem telling us to our face that we’re out welcome in the US, and that these ads even found their way into our national TV broadcasts

Because I feel like I have seen nobody mention it

A couple of points:
1. Eastern Ukraine is not Trump’s to bargain away.
2. This 1-on-1 meeting is already a huge win for Putin. By sidelining Zelenskyy, Putin has reinforced his narrative about the illegitimacy of #Ukraine as a sovereign state.

NEW: A federal judge ordered the Trump administration to unfreeze federal funds.

Then the harassment began.

"Before January 2025 there had been no—zero, zilch—interest in killing off USAID. It wasn't something Trump ran on. It wasn't envisioned in Project 2025. It was only once Elon Musk decided that USAID was evil that destroying the agency became a policy goal for the Republican party."

In the minds of the western far-left and far-right, every western military intervention, despite achieving a military victory, has been an unmitigated disaster that always ended in certain humiliation.

Those same people also think Russia is on a guaranteed course for victory.

ICE budget is now bigger than the military budgets of other countries. The US is a police state. This is unacceptable, not with my tax dollars.

This is what I’m so worried about
I don’t think anyone is prepared for what they just did w/ ICE.

This is not a simple budget increase. It is an explosion - making ICE bigger than the FBI, US Bureau of Prisons, DEA,& others combined.

It is setting up to make what’s happening now look like child’s play. And people are disappearing.

Millions of Americans know the pain and hardship of getting a cancer diagnosis. That’s a misfortune, a terrible misfortune.

Voting for a tax scheme designed to rip health care from millions of Americans struggling to make ends meet? That’s not a misfortune, that’s an injustice.
