(1/3) It needs repeating: in 1994, Ukraine was persuaded to give up its nuclear weapons to Russia in return for the US, the UK, and Russia guaranteeing Ukraineโ€™s sovereignty, security, and territorial integrity.

โ€˜The perfect targetโ€™: Russia cultivated Trump as asset for 40 years โ€“ ex-KGB spy The KGB โ€˜played the game as if they were immensely impressed by his personalityโ€™, Yuri Shvets, a key source for a new book, tells the Guardian

#ProudBlue
The Guardian notes this is 4 yrs old. I remember this info circulating in 2016, but everyone ignored it. Russia is openly jubilant about Trump in power, & other tools such as Gabbard in key positions. We're sunk, unless we can get our act together. Now.

It's annoying how clearly this is going to play out.

They gut the FAA.
Therefore, the FAA can't do its job well because it was gutted.
Therefore, they say "The FAA sucks, we have to privatize it." which is what Project 2025 wants to do. They're manufacturing the crises for their end goal.

After Trumpโ€™s remarks on Gaza, some in Dearborn, Michigan โ€˜think we screwed upโ€™ Trumpโ€™s plan to โ€œtake overโ€ Gaza was met with outrage in Dearborn, Michigan, an Arab American enclave.

One leader in Dearborn, granted anonymity to speak candidly, described a sense of remorse among some in the Arab American community who voted for Trump or sat out the election but now โ€œthink we screwed up but weโ€™re not going to admit it.โ€

Scholz slams Trumpโ€™s โ€˜self-centeredโ€™ bid to link Ukraine aid to rare earths access Kyiv isnโ€™t totally against the U.S. presidentโ€™s idea โ€” but the German chancellor isnโ€™t impressed.

German Chancellor Olaf Scholz has sharply criticized US President Donald Trumpโ€™s proposal to tie future military aid for Ukraine to access to its rare earth resources, calling the move "very egotistic, very self-centered."

New revelations complicate the Gabbard, RFK Jr. confirmation fights Tulsi Gabbard's and Robert F. Kennedy Jr.'s nominations were already on shaky ground. New reporting about their records won't do them any favors.

Tulsi Gabbard and the guy with the network of suicide bombers.

RFK Jr and the "misconduct" he will not explain to Senators.

Committee votes on both tomorrow:

Indivisible National ยท Indivisible on Mobilize Weโ€™re a grassroots movement of thousands of local Indivisible groups with a mission to elect progressive leaders, rebuild our democracy, and defeat the Trump agenda.

Elon Musk is illegally seizing the power to steal government payments โ€” including Social Security, Medicare, and Medicaid.

THIS IS A COUP!

This week, our friends at @indivisible.org are holding protests at Senate offices around the country to demand that our elected leaders fight back. Join them!

Is There Anything Trump Won't Blame on D.E.I.? The president is promising a return to meritocracyโ€”while staffing his government with underqualified loyalists.

"When you are selecting not only for loyalty, but defining that loyalty to mean affirming morally odious values and factually absurd premises, you are reducing your hiring pool to the shallowest part," Jonathan Chait writes:
