55 years from now, I know it sounds insane The dark fascist regime might be gone (might be gone) Oh, if you by then have forgiven me When push comes to shove We don't have to be enemies Won't you hear me out? When it all burns down When it all burns down I will hold you close for the minute it takes

Tom Emmer just told CNN "Yes" he is ok with sending US citizens to prisons in foreign countries. The interview is a good watch in general if you want to watch an elected official who clearly doesn't understand or support the basics of the US Constitution.

Putin made Trump wait almost two hours. Their phone call was supposed to have taken place already, but Putin was still at a conference. When Putin is reminded of the meeting, everyone starts laughing; they're literally mocking Trump.

Last week’s staged disrespect of Zelenskyy was a pretext for Donald Trump’s effort to appease Vladimir Putin. Abandoning allies, bowing down to dictators, and putting democracy at risk – all to what end? This isn’t leadership, this is cowardice.

apnews.comTrump orders a ‘pause’ of US military aid for UkrainePresident Donald Trump is seeking to pressure Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy to engage in peace talks with Russia by pausing military aid to Ukraine.

Peace in Ukraine is a lot simpler than most people think. It's inevitable that many will overthink the problem. Russia's position in the conflict is weak and perilous. A consortium of European boots on the ground ends the violence in under 7 days. Russia has no real optionality.

I wonder if Rubio is also an asset? Not that it would even matter at this point. Look how uncomfortable he looks. Deep down at a minimum he knows he is aligned with traitors.

What if Trump had his own sort of 12 man? A player that's not on the field that handles all the dirty work and maneuvering. Like threatening his fellow Republicans with physical violence and such? Oh wait... He has Russia and groups like the proud boys for that. Silly me.

Conservatives in the near future: -I'm not sure this guy has our best interests in mind? -I don't know how we keep falling for this -Sometimes Fox News completely missed the point. -Why do I feel so uninformed?

All politics are local politics. How can you heat up a local school board meeting? How can you run for city council or sheriff? America is a massive country full of varying economies, climates, etc. It is difficult to assert control over something so vast when local officials aren't with you.

Fact check: nearly 70 percent of US money for Ukraine actually went to US defense industry to replenish the stocks of OLD stuff that went to Ukraine to use. Much of which we would have paid to destroy as their lifespan expired.

Why would a little boy say, “Shut the fuck up” if he wanted someone to be quiet? Was there someone in his life who maybe repeatedly said that to him? Also, where would he get the idea that Trump *isn’t* the President? Did someone also say that repeatedly to him?

Today's a great day for Vladimir Putin. He finally has an asset at the highest level of US intelligence, and he’s laughing. Tulsi Gabbard, known in Russia as "Putin's Girlfriend", is now in charge of our intelligence apparatus. America is being weakened by Trump and his administration.
