If a foreign adversary snuck into our Federal budget and cut science research and education the way we’re cutting it ourselves — strategically undermining America’s long-term health, wealth, and security — we would likely consider it an act of war.

Zelensky showed the world he is not weak and will never put up with blackmail. He is a true leader who COMMANDS not demands respect, something he has earned through heavy price. I am glad he walked out and did not sign the deal. Biden should speak up and counter Trumps lies.

Trump has seized the archives, the article explains, because he feels the prior archivist played a role in revealing he had classified documents piled up in an unsecured bathroom at his tacky golf club.

This is what happens when you don't properly evaluate pardon requests on an individual basis. Trump didn't look at prior criminal history, behavior in prison, or risk of dangerousness to the community following release. Now we all pay the price for him using the pardon power as a political reward.
