Humiliating and dangerous: Trump has now finally just made America an ally of the Kremlin and is aiding Putin in his war against an American friend and partner. Shameful betrayal of a US friend, and pathetic submission to a US enemy. www.theatlantic.com/ideas/2026/1...

Newsom: "Trump is ruthless. I'm sorry -- we need to be a little more ruthless. And if you think I'm exaggerating, I woke up this morning & read Trump wants to arrest me. He said on Truth Social.
