With ALT. This is legitimately terrifying. This is a MASSIVE escalation of violent anti-immigrant rhetoric and policies.
It’s almost as if they knew unleashing the military into American cities would lead to violence and they were already planning to use that violence to justify this.

Witkoff Advised Russia on How to Pitch Ukraine Plan to Trump

So, don't rely on weapon deliveries from the US, even if you purchase them. In short - don't buy american defense hardware, because they won't continue to deliver if you're at war.
Karoline Leavitt on Ukraine:
The United States is still sending or selling a big amount of weapons to NATO.
We cannot do that forever.

We need to stop calling it a ‘peace plan,’ even with sarcastic quotes around it. Call it the US-Kremlin plan or similar.
‘US-Kremlin plan’ shames the US and makes it sound deeply unappealing to the broader US and European publics.

(📢) What Trump did today was not a SHOULD impeach, it was a MUST impeach.
He said anyone who challenges his authority—an authority he doesn’t have—to give illegal orders to the military must be executed.
That is a prima facie case for impeachment.
Articles should be drawn up.

This wasn’t about a mere “policy agenda”—pre-Trump shutdowns were, which is also why they were much shorter—it was about egregious lawbreaking.
