“I’m going to say this at the risk of my job. What President Trump is doing is insane. It is absolutely insane.”
CNBC’s Steve Liesman goes off on Trump’s reckless trade wars.
Here is some truth: Putin invaded Ukraine. NATO is the most successful military alliance in history. Since 1945, American leadership has ensured freedom and security for ourselves and millions of others around the world. Together with our allies, we defeated the Soviet Union—an empire so evil it had to build gulags and walls to keep its own people in. Destroying America’s alliances and abandoning the cause of freedom is morally and strategically indefensible. Putin will pocket Trump’s naive concessions and demand much more. Appeasement makes a wider war more likely, not less.
@realDonaldTrump, @JDVance, and @elonmusk have made clear who they are. Only fools—or Kremlin tools—would abandon NATO, side with Russia, and demand Ukraine surrender in the face of Putin’s brutal aggression.
BOOM: Recently resurfaced video of JD Vance calling trump a noxious fraud who doesn't care about folks, and he "can't stomach trump." It's clear that JD Vance has no values or strong convictions on anything.
Fucking feckless phony.

Only 48 hours after Trump's hard turn toward Russia, an emergency meeting of NATO countries, plus Ukraine, WITHOUT the US.
The world is moving on without the US.
Did Russia invade Ukraine?
It’s a pretty simple question I had for the Deputy Secretary of Defense nominee. It’s an obvious “yes” to everyone except this administration.
Sen. PADILLA ahead of Kash Patel vote: For Senate Republicans to stay quiet when a nominee so obviously unfit comes before us, that sets a dangerous precedent.
“Think about the damage.”
HUGE: Democratic Senators Schiff, Blumenthol, and Padilla are outside the FBI Headquarters to launch a major protest against Kash Patel’s vote:
“He can’t do the job. He won’t protect the public. He’ll weaponize the FBI against Trump’s opponents.” AGREE!
1) This is the executive order that establishes Trump as dictator. It’s also how Trump is going to get around the court orders and defy them. By forcing federal employees to do it or be fired. So now the president alone interprets law. There’s a lot to cover, so let’s begin⬇️
It sure looks like Kash Patel PERJURED himself before Congress.
Kash Patel to Sen. BOOKER: I’m “not aware of” any plans to punish or terminate FBI agents or personnel.
Kash Patel: *personally directing unjustified firings of law enforcement officials*
