In plain terms, the United States aligned itself with Russia against Ukraine and NATO. By transmitting Moscow’s surrender terms unedited and pressuring Kyiv to accept them, the Trump Regime effectively sided with Russia in the war and attempted to force Ukraine’s capitulation. It is betrayal.
Russia drafted a 28 point surrender plan, handed it to the Trump team, and the regime delivered it to Kyiv unedited, demanding Zelensky sign it by Thanksgiving or lose all US support. Trump and Vance then promoted the plan exactly as Russia wrote it, verbatim, on TV, online, and in person.

Service members are obligated to follow lawful orders from the chain of command, and lawfulness is defined by alignment with the Constitution and U.S. law...not by personal allegiance to whoever is in office.
Of course, Donald Trump would not know this; he was too afraid to serve.

Putin's in a hurry. His economy is crumbling around him. He's running out of troops and ammunition.

Russia is not winning its war in Ukraine

It’s a long Russian con to make America complicit — and it makes America weak, and corrupt

The “peace plan” for Ukraine is just a framework for Russia & the US to take assets away from Ukrainian recovery, and to ensure Russia evades accountability for war crimes

The underlying cause of every bubble - debt masquerading as financial innovation - depends on not just short financial memory & speculative neophytism, but reinventing jargon of finance, like how each generation of kids has new ways to say same things.

Nothing but crimes, my dude - 100% pure, Grade A crime.
If anything actually legal has happened, the responsible agent got bounced as soon as it happened.

It’s crazy to think about the crimes we’re going to learn about after this regime ends.
We’re already hearing about Watergate level crimes every week. Imagine what will come out after it’s over.
We’re going to need a full accounting of all that’s been done in violation of the constitution.

truly impressive how much Target’s success relied on Woke
turns out that’s all that really differentiated it from its competitors and when it gave customers a reason to go elsewhere they had no reason to come back

Continual reminder from economist Dean Baker that markets *do not exist*, we *construct them*. And we decide what they do, who they favor, and who pays the price of damage.
It's smarter to build markets that serve human interests than to try & redistribute the damage afterwards.

Imagine if private equity partners were held liable for all the debts of the portfolio companies they put into bankruptcy. They would be much poorer. That is not the result of the marker, it is how we chose to write bankruptcy laws to favor private equity.
