DC Del. Eleanor Holmes Norton’s strong history of civil rights and public service deserves a better end than this. Her inability to function at yesterday’s Hill committee on DC was her public “Joe Biden Debate” moment. A decision to retire honorably should be next.

Wall Street Journal editorial on John Bolton raid - "The real offender here is a President who seems to think he can use the powers of his office to run vendettas. We said this was one of the risks of a second Trump term, and it’s turning out to be worse than we imagined."

Yes, the blatant, bloody aggressor must be rewarded in some hideous way for the aggressor to stop his slaughter of another nation. Simple. The free world sees thru this. It’s why Europeans leaders also are heading to DC.
Witkoff claims Putin agreed to "legislative enshrinement within the Russian Federation not to go after any other territories when the peace deal is codified " and "legislative enshrinement in the Russian Federation not to go after any other European countries."
