Trump says President Zelensky should be nicer to Vladimir Putin:
“He doesn’t have to stand there and say ‘Putin this, Putin that,’ all negative things. He’s got to say, ‘I want to make peace, I don’t want to fight any longer.’”
(It’s clear that Trump wants Ukraine to surrender to Putin.)

The FAA is close to canceling a $2.4 billion contract with Verizon to overhaul the communications system that serves as the backbone of the nation’s air traffic control and is awarding the work to Musk’s Starlink. Follow the money and see where it goes.

Donald Trump just named far-right MAGA podcaster Dan Bongino, a notorious conspiracy theorist who promoted the lie that the 2020 election was “stolen,” to serve as Deputy Director of the FBI.

C-PAC is a cult gathering, not a convention!
This “Third Term Project” poster at CPAC is straight out of the authoritarian playbook. The same people who were screaming about “the deep state” are now openly fantasizing about a dictator-for-life.

“They’re Scared Shitless”: The Threat of Political Violence Informing Trump’s Grip on Congress
With the president smashing norm after norm, even lawmakers within his party have feared for their personal safety, and at least one has told confidants that it has swayed his decision-making.

Don’t worry, guys. They’re just trolling us—just like Trump was “trolling” when he claimed he won after the 2020 election and just like he’s floating the idea of a third term in recent weeks. Nothing to see here, right? Carry on.

Yes, Trump committed countless outrageous and illegal acts on his first day in office, but the biggest story remains that the man who incited the violent mob that attacked the Capitol and assaulted police officers, he let all these criminals go.
