“We may never know why Trump is so perversely loyal to Putin,” and “we don't know exactly why Musk went all in for Trump and Russia,” Garry Kasparov writes. “But the urgency of their actions I do understand, and it's a dire warning”:

Zelenskyy standing up to Trump and Vance’s bullying for the sake of Ukraine’s freedom. That’s patriotism. That’s leadership. Meanwhile Keir Starmer brown noses them for crumbs from the their table.
