If you want peace in Ukraine, pressure Russia. If you want war, don’t. The Trump people only make concessions. Which is exactly what the Kremlin expected. The US through its astounding weakness is making the war longer and bloodier than it has to be.
⚡️Trump says US will not impose new sanctions on Russia.

“Because I think there’s a chance of getting something done, and if you do that, you could also make it much worse," Trump told reporters from the Oval Office on May 19.

It’s strange how we cannot make policy to protect Americans from Russian and Chinese disinformation without elements of the American far right identifying with and protecting Russian and Chinese disinformation.

New in PN: The made for TV sec def

"Hegseth is essentially playing the role of sec def on TV for a president who wants a vapid figurehead rather than someone competent. His job is to serve as a square-jawed caricature of MAGA masculinity. By that measure, he's doing exactly what he was hired for."
Pete Hegseth: The made for TV sec def
As an actual secretary of defense, he's ridiculous. But as the MAGA sec def on a Netflix series, he makes total sense.

Atlantic editor Jeffrey Goldberg: "What happened at the beginning of this chain is cabinet members were asked for a point of contact. John Ratcliffe gave the whole real name of his liason, an active CIA officer never named before in public."

This was the first time in their lives, I realized, that these boys and girls had been in an actual classroom. The Russian invasion began as covid was ending. Two years of covid seclusion had been followed directly by three years of war. The kids were buoyant.

"I want to live in Ukraine." Zelensky posted a new video showing North Koreans being interrogated. One soldier says he didn’t know he was sent to fight in Ukraine and believes the trip is just a regular training exercise, unaware of his true destination.

Musk’s recent post calling Alexander Vindman a “traitor” and saying he will “pay the price” should be the line that causes the remaining people of goodwill on Twitter to leave. See my commentary on Substack: roberthubbell.substack.com/p/raising-ou...

The same people who’ve spent the last several years decrying “unqualified DEI hires” are now shoehorning through Cabinet nominations who can’t even pass a basic background test.
