I had the honor of speaking on a recent panel about the boat strikes with Laura Dib (WOLA), Brian Finucane (Crisis Group), Katherine Yon Ebright (Brennan Center for Justice), and Amanda Klasing (Amnesty Int.). This is the most comprehensive discussion I have yet seen on the topic. Please share.

Why is the WH pushing Ukraine to accept a Russian plan that paves the way for another war? The document offers some hints, declaring that the U.S. would also somehow take charge of the $100 billion in frozen Russian assets supposedly to invest this money in Ukraine and receive “50% of the profits.”
For a decade, Russia has been seeking to divide Europe and America, to undermine NATO and weaken the transatlantic alliance. This peace plan, if accepted, will achieve that goal.

I am grateful for @adamjkucharski.bsky.social. He takes such care to deconstruct a claim made by the director of National Institutes of Health on excess mortality during the pandemic. We need sober analyses more than ever right now, even amidst the madness.

Remember when Marjorie was part of that attack? Remember when she followed teenage David Hogg down the street carrying a pistol?She supported Jan. 6th inmates and their release. She is a good example of being able to give it out but not taking it. I will give her kudos for her Epstein File stance.

The paragraph the begins with “If I am cast aside…” and the two paragraphs immediately after it are vitally important for all Americans to understand & take to heart.

Understand it & commit to defending democracy & the Constitution. America is liberty & justice for All. No One is above the law.

A federal court said this week Trump’s deployment of the National Guard in D.C. was likely unlawful and harmed the District’s right to govern itself. The court rejected Trump’s claim that he can independently mobilize the Guard for local policing.

I don’t know if the right will ever stop using socialism & communism as scare words. But it’s time for moderate Dems to stop flinching every time the right yells “Democrat socialist” Start learning the lessons right in front of them from Mamdani’s candidacy and his win.

Democrats scored big in school board races across Texas, Pennsylvania and Ohio — flipping dozens of seats.

The party's candidates pushed issues regarding test scores and bus safety over debates about which bathrooms transgender students use and banning books from school libraries.

Yes, everyone who believes in transatlantic relations must work to maintain, & eventually rebuild them. But now, 👇🎯. Especially 👇:

"We aren't poor, we have options, we can finally decide to assist 🇺🇦 to the full extent of our very extensive capabilities, restore European dignity, & defend Europe."
Completely agree.
The fates of Ukraine and Europe are linked.

Important words, but they still require 🇪🇺 to do massively more to step up & defend 🇺🇦 militarily, diplomatically, & financially. Now. Not years from now.
German Chancellor Friedrich Merz made clear: “This war can only end with Ukraine’s full consent. It cannot be resolved by great powers over the heads of those under attack.” He stressed that Europe must be part of any solution and warned that Ukraine’s defeat would destabilize the entire continent.

MTG posted a video just right after this meeting: "we had a great planning session for our January 6 objections".

Yes, the biggest question is how she got an invite, as a new Rep not yet sworn in. She'd been in an influence op tied to Project Veritas. No reporter ever probed that connection.
