Russia, Inc, is an international criminal conspiracy masquerading as a failed state. Trump is but one aspiring mob boss in it's syndicate.

One thing that’s become absolutely clear: The Trump administration isn’t isolationist. It meddles on behalf of authoritarians all over the world. Or to put it another way: The Trump administration isn’t America First. It’s Authoritarianism First.

I have sent a letter to Congressional Representatives asking them to take action to condemn yesterday’s meeting with President Zelensky. The way our President and VP treated our ally is atrocious and has shown they are not on the side of democracy.

Macron: “But we must not forget one point—if anyone is playing the Third World War, it is Vladimir Putin. He was the one who started the war three years ago, and he brought 10,000 North Korean soldiers to European soil.”

NEW: A searing editorial in the The Kyiv Independent. “It’s time to say it plainly. America’s leadership has switched sides in the war. The American people have not, and they should speak up. “A president just disrespected America in the Oval Office. It wasn’t Zelensky.” @kyivindependent.com

I have covered presidential politics for 40 years. This was the most juvenile display by a President and Vice President I have ever seen. Other presidents treated their enemies with more respect. This is a low point and a dark day for the US. Totally embarrassing.

1400 more firings at Veterans Affairs: "Officials said specifically that Veterans Crisis Line responders were not affected by the dismissals. But workers within the department said that support staff for the crisis line were among the workers let go..." www.militarytimes.com/veterans/202...

militarytimes.comVA fires 1,400 more staffers in second round of workforce reductionsAbout 2,500 VA workers have been forced out of their jobs in the last few weeks.

They? Who is “They?” I am talking about “us.” Why? Because before the unprovoked illegal invasion, I was treated in Ukraine for an “incurable medical condition.” Was cured in 2 weeks. I became so thankful I started giving back then. Helping others. Then the invasion.

it doesn't look like getting people to assemble drones is a problem for them . Thousands of volunteers work assembling them . What they are short of is long range weapons

This seems like a really bad idea, esp. for someone with no experience in ATF’s guns/arson/bombs based prosecutions or their regulatory mission (on top of the slightly demanding job of being FBI director: Kash Patel to also take over as acting ATF director www.washingtonpost.com/national-sec...

Kristi Noem’s week: • Sent 400 ICE agents to Colorado and made ONE arrest. • Got the Acting Director fired. • Played dress-up cosplay. • Cheated with Corey Lewandowski. • Wacked more puppies and goats.

The U.K. will impose a travel ban on individuals who have significant ties to the Russian state or have built their wealth through Kremlin connections. The new sanctions come amid broader Western efforts to tighten pressure on Moscow.

Funeral Director here: People who pass away don’t receive social security checks once the agency has been notified. We fill out a form (SSA-721) and fax it directly to social security. Elon Musk is lying to you.

If members of Congress—like Rep. Grothman —are this clueless about what the man who is dismantling our government is saying and promising, they don’t deserve to keep their jobs! This woman is in his face, begging him to wake TF up—and he just walks off. Pathetic.

I didn’t get a chance to say EXACTLY what this doc says. Please, all my MPH colleagues, repost! ==>

RFK Jr. thinks that a clinical trial should be done for the entire childhood vaccine schedule. Here’s why that will never happen. 1. You can’t do a randomized trial of something that we already know is safe and effective. There would have to be a placebo group that didn’t get vaxxed. Unethical.
