“Last January, Trump gave a full pardon to…Ross Ulbricht, who played a central role in the digitalization of the international drug trade ***According to news accounts, from 2011-2013, Ulbricht facilitated more than $200M in transactions for weapons, stolen credit cards, & mostly illicit drugs.” 1/

Whoa TN-7

Realizing that I'm creating my own straw man, I wonder if they'll be able to find US Attorneys who will do it?

yes, of course international law is massively imperfect and flawed: it is still a hell of a lot better than the prior situation, which was “you can do literally anything you want in warfare and nobody can really say boo about it beyond evoking religion”

a good reminder that most of the trash-talking requires at least an MA and possibly a Phd in the Trump Cinematic Universe to even know what on earth they're talking about.

I would bet $ that he has seen Scarface many times.

Where are the Epstein Files?

TRUMP: ALL BIDEN-ERA DOCUMENTS, PROCLAMATIONS, EXECUTIVE ORDERS, MEMOS, AND CONTRACTS ARE HEREBY DECLARED NULL AND VOID

"Nixon represents that dark, venal and incurably violent side of the American character almost every other country in the world has learned to fear and despise". Hunter S Thompson - October 1973 This quote sums up Trump just as perfectly as it summed up Richard Nixon 52 years ago. Pure evil.

Damn, messing up on day one. Pentagon spox confirmed that all strikes in Caribbean are "directed by the President". Congrats.

The meeting. With an FSB translator.

Exactly. JD's loyalty doesn't seem to be to the United States of America.

alina habba is the kevin sorbo of attorneys

All of those devices in the room.

Kind of like all of his wives thought, "But surely he'll be faithful to ME!"

Xi forcefully implied that if Trump really wants big, beautiful trade deal to boast about at home, the US must formally accept that China’s sovereign right to Taiwan.. Suspicions grow that Trump may ultimately subordinate defence of Taiwan to detente with China. www.theguardian.com/commentisfre...

Rubio: "This is not just about ending a war. This is about ending a war in a way that creates a mechanism and a way forward that will allow Ukraine to be independent and sovereign, never have another war again, and create tremendous prosperity for its people.

We need to start calling him this #SecretaryofWarCrimes

Why can’t he just setup camp at the local bingo hall like the rest of the normal folks his age?

It won't end anything. Ceding territory would give Russia the time and resources it needs to regroup to take the rest of Ukraine and its neighbors. This is not difficult. The "peace plan" doesn't need 28 points, it only needs one. 1. RUSSIA GET THE HELL OUT OF UKRAINE!

This, is how Trumpism will be defeated. When we start seeing more guys like this at the No Kings-style rallies, maga is finished.

They also refused during Reconstruction. And I think we're headed towards that kind of violence.

US is prepared to recognise Russia’s control over occupied Ukrainian territories, including Crimea, in order to reach a deal to end the war—Telegraph citing sources. This will be communicated by Witkoff and Kushner when they visit Kremlin. Seeing is believing. If so, RU will be first to leak this.

Why would ANY country trust what the United States says about anything? Trump has gone back on his word on every big decision in his life…

All of Congress has a responsibility to step up and stop this US capitulation to Russia!! Now!

A different perspective on the Trump-Putin "Peace Plan" to end the Ukraine conflict, as if applied to Venezuela.

Maybe he's referring to "disapproval" numbers?

GOOD NEWS! Researchers have developed a heteromultivalent nanogel capable of killing some of the most dangerous bacteria known to medicine- with over 99.9% effectiveness against P. aeruginosa. It also showed strong antibacterial effects against other major threats, including E. coli and MRSA.

As soon as he assigned it to himself, I knew that what little chance the case had of surviving was dead.

I agree. Why wouldn't there also be transcripts of Witkoff's actual conversations with Putin himself?

Such classic gaslighting it's an instructive moment. The question is not whether generic is better or worse, it's that a list with more expensive brand names is not the same as a list with cheaper generics. Perverting that truth into an attack on those calling it out is Manipulation 101.

Bolsonaro behind bars is a reminder: democracies survive when they stop letting criminals play government.

The fate of the Ukrainian people cannot ever be in the hands of evil, incompetent people. These are human beings, whose ONLY crime was just living their peaceful lives as a sovereign country.

Do you understand now that Axios - being fed the doc from Kremlin as a "Trump Plan" was the source of RU propaganda? Nothing is done for free or out of good will either.

A cynic might say that Trump is planning to drop this in the lap of the next Administration with no plan to continue.

What apparently everyone except Senate Democrats understands is that the survival of Democrats, perhaps literally, depends on Trump hitting Ceaușescu levels of unpopularity. This goal is not helped if Senate Democrats do anything at all to reduce the harm Trump is inflicting on the American people.

Unprecedented presidency-ending scandals & crimes now happening twice a day

So Putin is weak, and instead of finishing him off, and helping Ukraine, and the world, Trump is throwing him a lifeline?

How did the pardoned turkey come up with money?

WTF?

On a plaque at West Point: "The United States boldly broke with the ancient military custom of swearing loyalty to a leader... should orders and the law ever conflict, our officers must obey the law." Mark Kelly is a patriot and the best of America. Trump is a traitor and the worst of America.

Does the US even take the time to denounce these kinds of actions anymore?

It is not possible for this WH to get behind Ukraine because the current occupant of this WH is committed to the advancement of Russian interests. He has been cultivated as a long-term project by the KGB/FSB to do precisely what he is doing now. www.politico.com/magazine/sto...

All in all, let’s note one important factor - Russia, the murderer and agressor, was not asked or pressured to consider, and as a result, has not even slightly indicated ANY interest in just peace or ceasefire. That is THE bottom line.

I just can’t understand why the fucking Americans are negotiating anything with anybody in regards to Ukraine.The Russians and the Americans never honour any agreement anyway. I guess Americans love to give away other peoples stuff whenever there is a scam to be had.Just spineless scammers as usual

If the 28-point plan came from Russia and somehow ended up in the hands of U.S. lawmakers, then we don’t have a “leak” problem we have a foreign influence problem. And anyone downplaying that should not be anywhere near national security decisions.

How many Senators and Reps are working for Putin? No need to mention Trump he clearly is.
