TL/DR:

"Q: What comes after the “cathartic cataclysm?” Can there be a moment of reckoning that means less political violence for a while?

TL/DR:

"Not only was this a personal affront to Trump, but it also puts Netanyahu’s goals over the critical security priorities of the United States — even after the last two US administrations rushed to defend Israel from two sets of attacks by Iran...

TL/DR:

"But unlike 2018, when Trump was still a political novice, or 2022, when Democrats controlled the presidency and Congress, the 2026 midterms will take place under a radicalized Trump administration that appears hellbent on crushing its opposition...
