Coming out of a bit of a news break whilst in L.A. and this is quite the hard re-entry: the president of Ukraine being lectured like a child by the U.S. president and vice president who want to steal his natural resources and hand chunks of his country to Putin. I have never been so embarrassed.
Omg. This is a thread. Every one should be appalled. 1/5

This was a disgusting display by the soft, uninformed VP Vance trying to school Zelensky, the man who has led his country through the most surprisingly resilient and effective fight for sovereignty against a global superpower.

Every negative stereotype about America is confirmed in this exchange.
ZELENSKYY: Putin broke the ceasefire. What kind of diplomacy, JD, are you speaking about?

VANCE: I think it's disrespectful to come into the Oval Office and try to litigate this in front of the American media

This is a terrible move @msnbc.com. Terrible. The @joy.msnbc.com was a critical part of the evening line-up and @joyannreid.bsky.social brings trenchant political analysis that no one else in the evening line-up has brought. I urge you to reconsider this. www.nytimes.com/2025/02/23/b...

Canada PM Candidate Chrystia Freeland: Trump’s tariffs ‘self-defeating and self-mutilating’
“Dear United States, you’re about to hurt yourself,” says Chrystia Freeland, one of the candidates to be the next Canadian Prime Minister. President Trump continues to threaten tariffs on America’s global trading partners - both allies and adversaries - claiming the U.S., the world’s largest economy, is being treated “unfairly.”

Donald Trump fired the people who make sure you and your parents get the health care you need. The people who make sure medical devices are safe for you to use. The people who approve the lifesaving drugs you rely on.

This is a good action.
If you have ever received treasury payments - tax returns, student loans, financial aid, social security, etc. Call your bank, mortgage company, credit card company, university. Express concerns about the federal personal data breach. Ask how they will protect your information. Put on the pressure!

Listening to the mother of former Capitol Police Officer Michael Fanone describing on @joy.msnbc.com how she has been harassed and menaced is making my chest so tight. If your police union hasn’t condemned this conduct if, as a Member of Congress, you’ve condoned these pardons, you are a disgrace.

I’m going to say it again for the trolls on here who have trouble listening the first time: James Earl “Jimmy” Carter Jr was ten times the man Donald Trump was every day of his life, ten times the Christian, and ten times the president. I said what I said. Good day.
