Read this twice. The world we know is shifting beneath our feet.
Breaking news: U.S. sides with Russia to vote against a U.N. resolution condemning Moscow for the Ukraine war.

Washington’s dramatic shift on the conflict marks a major break with its European allies and coincides with the Trump administration’s bid to repair relations with the Kremlin.

This isn't a surprising but it is devastating.

The great betrayal of Ukraine begins.

We, in Europe, are in a place of danger.

We all owe Ukraine & its people a debt of gratitude for its extraordinary courage. 😢

Imagine you were the richest man in the world. You could have anything you wanted, go anywhere you wished, do whatever took you fancy. How would you spend your weekend? Depriving the poorest people in the world of food and healthcare and boasting about it?

Like that great line in Reagan’s Challenger speech: “they waved goodbye and slipped the surly bonds of all that Carter bullshit”
This press conference is a pretty good indicator that Trump is worried all of this will fall into his lap. (As I was writing that, he criticized Buttigieg's "bullshit" as DOT head.)

Germans are in the streets demonstrating against the extremist right there and here (note the language of their message). Where are our rallies in defense of democracy? Where is our resistance?

For inspiration, look at this from the Süddeutsche: no paywall; with or without Google Translate, the photos tell the story of resistance. Thousands rally across Germany against the right.
