I cannot shake this segment from Heather Cox Richardson’s “Letters from an American” on 3/2.

What did the Kremlin ask Trump to do in exchange for help winning this election?

So far it seems to be dump Ukrain, dump NATO, and tank the American economy. 🤷‍♀️
Screen shot of a transcript: “Shortly after the election, a newspaper reporter asked Nikolai Patrushev, who is close to Putin, if Trump's election would mean positive changes from Russia's point of view. Patrushev answered, to achieve success in the elections, Donald Trump relied on certain forces to which he has corresponding obligations. And, as a responsible person, he will be obliged to fulfill them. Today, Kremlin spokesperson Dmitry Peskov told a reporter, the new administration is rapidly changing all foreign policy configurations. This largely aligns with our vision.” From Letters from an American: March 2, 2025, Mar 3, 2025 https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/letters-from-an-american/id1730358737?i=1000697471248&r=567 This material may be protected by

Wow. What a journey this was. The writing is absolute poetry. The story is heart breaking, but a story that must be told. Lessons for us all.

Just finished this delightful, heartfelt novel. Highly recommend. Easy, quick read. Lovely story, lovely characters, and a wonderful octopus with a mind of his own. ❤️
