So, which is it?
If this info wasn’t classified, that in itself would be a scandalous screw-up that must be explained.

Tom Friedman on point here, though he understated the case. Either Trump is the worse negotiator in all the universes of truth and fiction, or he is beginning an alliance with Russia with a joint attempt to subjugate Ukraine (and then much else).

Grateful for judges like U.S. District Judge John C. Coughenour (a Reagan-appointee) who is defending the rule of law and calling out lawlessness in this Trump Administration. 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼

Disbanding the FBI’s counter-terrorism division while simultaneously volunteering to level Gaza doesn’t seem to be a coordinated action.

A must-read. This’d be worth creating a Facebook account just to read—and I know what a claim that is to make.
It’s a bracing essay about Elon Musk by someone very close to him.
