Anyone else what to get out of this rabbit hole?

This might foil their plans to interfere in the midterm w. If they hadn’t shown their had in Minnesota, we would not have been able to show this administration we are not going to quietly be intimidated.

On the latest episode of “The Foreign Affairs Interview,” @philgunson.bsky.social and Juan S. Gonzalez consider what will happen in Venezuela with Maduro gone—and what his ouster means for the wider region. https://fam.ag/4svwYd7

"Should the opposition ever regain power, it should commit to prosecuting members of this regime at every level to the fullest extent of the law."

I’m finding it hard to make sense of the administration. Does anybody else have a reaction when Trump says he supports protestors and threatens the regime with attack when in his own country- a women is shot in the face and they try to label her as an unruly protester? How can people do this?

It's been five years since Trump tried to overthrow the Constitution. What unfolded over the five years that followed will be remembered as one of the greatest failures of American institutions in our history.

UK Foreign Secretary Yvette Cooper: "Let me be very clear... Greenland is part of the Kingdom of Denmark... The future of Greenland is a matter for the Greenlanders and Danes, and no one else."

Trump is having a normal one.

NEW EPISODE: Supreme Court expert and Amicus podcast host @dahlialithwick.bsky.social joins me for a great conversation including unpacking one of the most dangerous and least understood forces shaping American law today: the Supreme Court’s shadow docket. youtu.be/d51WUTy0Xr0?...

Trump: “Let me just finish up because you know I weave. I love to weave. If you ever weave and don't come back to the point, then that's a problem. Then you say, but when you weave, and you go here and boom boom boom, always coming back, then you're in good shape.”

France at the UN Security Council: "The military operation which led to the capture of Nicolas Maduro runs counter to the principle of peaceful dispute resolution and the principle of non use of force. Violations of the UN Charter... chips away at the very foundation of the international order."

WATCH: Pamela Hemphill, who rejected a pardon for her part in the Jan. 6 attack on the U.S. Capitol, apologizes to Capitol Police officers. “I am truly sorry from the bottom of my heart for being part of the mob that put you and so many officers in danger,” Hemphill said at a hearing Tuesday.

"NATO is one big confidence trick - to convince the rest of the world we’re so united that if you come for one of us, we’re all coming for you." "Does anyone 𝘴𝘦𝘳𝘪𝘰𝘶𝘴𝘭𝘺 believe that right now?" As Trump threatens to take Greenland, is NATO on the brink of implosion?

A former Tennessee Republican operative and legislator convicted of fraud just got a get-out-of-jail-free card, all because Trump pardoned . . . someone else. lnk.thebulwark.com/4aI9ECs

5 years ago, there was a bloody, lawless, and deadly attack on our nation’s Capitol. A group of criminal thugs broke out in riots and stormed our Capitol in an attempt to overturn the results of a free and fair election at the direction of the President of the United States.

Release the Unredacted and unedited Epstein Files.

"The blame here lies in large part with the supine Congress, which keeps letting him get away with it, but also with the Supreme Court majority." Is any of that going to change in 2026? Don't bet on it.

Tomorrow it will be 5 years since trumps original crime against our nation. Since he got back in office he has worsened his crime spree. It is crystal clear now that he hates America and has destroyed this country's status, and our government.

After the actions in Venezuela and the President’s statements about “taking the oil”, can we say rapists is as rapist does?

It's easy to dislike Trump, but trust me, I don't think the anger toward Congress and both parties is enough.

The legacy of January 6. Anne Applebaum describes what’s changed…. Preview of tomorrow’s “To the Contrary” podcast.

The Trump Administration has not articulated a clear plan, but the lack of a plan is the plan. And what can the new Venezuelan president do to counter it? www.youtube.com/watch?v=HK91...

Let’s be clear: these are extrajudicial killings. “Kill them all” Hegseth needs to be held accountable. What’s more, Trump promised the American people no new wars but is now manufacturing this conflict & lying about his motives. This warmongering has got to stop.

Bash: "Do you believe if there was a second strike to eliminate any survivors that it constitutes a war crime?" Mark Kelly: "It seems to." Bash: "If you received that order, would you have carried it out?" Mark Kelly: "No…Going after survivors in the water is unlawful."

Will Donald Trump uphold NATO defense commitments when Russia invades the Baltics next? No, Trump will do nothing. Trump favors Putin and Russia.

If telling the troops not to follow illegal orders is “sedition,” what do we call colluding with the Kremlin to manipulate the U.S. President into advancing Russian interests over America’s?

The line "I ONE our nations districts" confirms he's not waning or sleeping--- zzzz

Sure, what Witkoff said according to the leak is bad. But the real story here is that there is a leak at all. Thinking about who did it and why is the interesting part. www.youtube.com/watch?v=xdjU...

Don’t give up America ⬇️

Does anybody know why Whitkoff is performing admiration duties without being approved by Congress? Does he get a government salary? Is this a violation of the Appointment Clause?

Help! Any lawyers out there? 17 trillion in tariff revenue, divided by the current population of us of 350 million= $48,571.43. Can we file a class action for American consumers? Someone tell Neal Katyal!!!

Read Samuel Charap and Sergey Radchenko on an overlooked episode of the war in Ukraine—the intense diplomacy involving Moscow, Kyiv, and a host of other actors that could have resulted in a settlement just weeks after the war began:
