@davidrlurie.com @PN: "The false notion that Trump was not fully committed to Putin also allowed many R supporters of Ukraine to justify looking the other way...Now that the Trump/Putin alliance has been indelibly formalized, denial is no longer a remotely reasonable option." 🧾 t2m.co/5XNjuHq

The Post obtained a list revealing all the major donors to President Trump’s White House ballroom, including contributors who have benefited from regulatory decisions, government contracts and, in one case, a pardon for a family member. See the full list: https://wapo.st/4jS0APW

BREAKING: " Videos collected by local investigators make it “pretty obvious” that an ICE officer intentionally ran over Miguel Parra Hernandez during an immigration stop Saturday, which could lead to assault charges, the district attorney said Tuesday."

Never forget this: The forces rigging our economy, undermining our democracy, polluting our planet, and stoking hatred are counting on you to give up. Cynicism is how they win. Don't give in. Instead, get out the vote. ⬇️ https://www.inequalitymediacivicaction.org/gotv

A logger humiliated Susan Collins on live TV. A Trump judge caught ICE in its own paperwork. And I found a $700,000 payment dated the same day Trump's Treasury did a Putin ally a favor. Trump wanted all of it buried. Oops.

And at the turn of the 20th Century, the American people saw the wisdom of antitrust, food and drug regulation, child labor laws, and national park preservation. Let’s go!
Americans are relearning the lesson we learned during the Gilded Age of the late 1890s, when robber barons ran the government and the economy for their own benefit: Oligarchy is incompatible with the common good. I'm hopeful we'll respond with a new progressive movement.

Also illustrated by the (I think?) French official who said that they can't leave the security of Europe in the hands of voters in Wisconsin every four years. It would appear the US is widely (and rightly) being viewed as an unreliable ally. And it'll take a while for that to come back--if ever.

🪿🪿 WHAT MANDATE 🪿🪿
This is the part many Americans -- including the Bezosites at the Washington Post -- don't understand. Canadians don't see this just as a Trump thing. It's that America elected him twice, and the second time with an even bigger mandate. The problem we're addressing is America, not Trump.
