Utterly ludicrous framing from @nytimes.com here, treating Pete Hegseth's arguments as if they're legitimate. The casual reader will be left with no inkling whatsoever of how unusual and corrupt an abuse of the process this truly is:

Europe is panicking. Russia is smirking. China is silent.
When these three things happen at once, it means the power map is being redrawn.

A recent poll found that 72 percent of non-MAGA Republicans and Republican leaning independents support extending ACA tax credits. But Republicans Congresspeople stand in the way–even in the way of Trump. New blog from me at @motherjones.com. www.motherjones.com/politics/202...
Even Trump wants to extend Obamacare—but Republicans stopped him

From manufacturing enemies to attempting to turn the military into his own personal army, Trump is painting a fuzzy picture through chaos and using the power of the government for himself, not us.

This is identical to Russia invading Ukraine. Illegally invading a country for their resources and likely killing thousands—if not more—is immoral and should not be supported by anyone with any shred of moral conscience.
