Remember that before the list there was war between House of Koch and House of Trump. After the list there was peace.
Do the math.
The most logical conclusion is a deal where Kochs got to pick Trump’s nominees, using Federalist Society as camouflage for a transaction.

Unclear where this war profiteering plan came from or why it emerged right now, but clear that it is in every way disastrous
This is not a peace plan. It is a proposal that weakens Ukraine and divides America from Europe, preparing the way for a larger war in the future. In the meantime, it benefits unnamed Russian and American investors, at the expense of everyone else.

NEW: You've heard SCOTUS could soon upend the balance in power in Congress by gutting the VRA. But that'd also be a huge blow to Black voting power in *local* governments.
In west Tennessee, Black residents just won a new county map this year—but those gains now look very fragile.

The Supreme Court may further erode the Voting Rights Act in an upcoming decision. Beyond affecting Congress, that would reverberate across local governments nationwide.

Before the midterms of 1866, President Andrew Johnson called his congressional opponents traitors and said they should be hanged.
Voters were so profoundly moved by his words... that they gave his opponents a supermajority in Congress, and the nation got the Fourteenth Amendment.

Trump has gone off the rails this morning, calling for democrats to be arrested & killed, which only means one thing: he knows his time is up.
He will be impeached. He will be convicted. He will be removed. And this entire regime will be held accountable for its attack on our democracy and people.
