Lawless plunderers are in control of the US government. I warned about Trump's desire to "get" Greenland in my book #Strongmen. Rubio is the just the latest enabler.

Ukrainian aircraft arrive to deliver a keynote address at the St Petersburg International Economic Forum that opens this morning. Special entertainment for Candace Owens, Andrew Tate and all the other distinguished guests.

[Anne Applebaum @anneapplebaum]

Truly morally sickening: that anyone should wish all of Ukraine to suffer the fate of Mariupol or Bucha. Russian occupation of Ukraine means random arrests, executions, concentration camps; the destruction of language and culture; mass kidnapping of children. All of these things have been documented in the occupied territories and continue to go on.

I for one would like to join Batya in opposing serial cheaters who insult vets and enjoy massive inherited wealth from dad. I'm sure she'll be consistent in this stand. Won't she?

What next? There will be more.

A former mayor and others said they are not aware of the city paying the educational costs of an elected officer. https://t.co/hdByw2CFBn

Ossoff: He’s trying to put his face on the money. He's building a monument to himself . But see, Atlanta, he's doing these things now because no one will honor him when he’s gone… because he's a failed president and a national disgrace.

🚨 BREAKING: ProPublica reporter Robert Faturechi confirms the White House directly intervened to force the Pentagon to give a record-breaking loan to a startup just 3 months after Don Jr. invested in it.

The Trump administration is looting the country!

[Neil Stone @DrNeilStone]

No 50% of the population of Martha's Vineyard does *not* have Alpha Gal syndrome

I have no idea where RFK Jr got this stat from but it's wrong and massively overstates how common this problem is

Harvard é tratada pelo trumpismo como símbolo de elitismo, globalismo e esquerda radical. Mas, na hora de escolher onde os filhos de integrantes-chave do governo vão estudar… Harvard, é claro.

If you turned on the TV in another country and saw the leader's daughter-in-law giving him a softball interview on a major "news" channel, you would rightfully assume that country is a tinpot dictatorship.

This is Nate Paul.

He was under FBI investigation for fraud. His real estate empire was collapsing after 18 properties filed for bankruptcy in a single year.

He wrote Ken Paxton a $25,000 check.

Then Paxton directed his AG’s office to hand Paul confidential investigative files.

They blocked foreclosure sales on his properties.

And they sided with Paul against the charity he was accused of defrauding.

Nate Paul even employed Paxton's mistress at Paxton’s recommendation.

Paxton's own senior staff reported his corruption to the FBI. They were fired.

This is what Ken Paxton does when he’s in a position of power — and it’s why he should be nowhere near the U.S. Senate.

Francis Fukuyama: "America under Trump has been engaged in such a determined process of self-harm that China does not really need to do anything other than sit back and watch it unfold. Trump predicted that China would not attack Taiwan while he was the president. And he may be right about this. He does not want to get in the way of a declining United States."

@EdwardGLuce @IlvesToomas Earlier in the week the same people complained that Cassidy’s defeat means he will now vote as he pleases. Shouldn’t that be praised as a virtue.

If Dems want to lose the governorship of Wisconsin, they'll nominate Francesca Hong. She's a fringe candidate who'd be lucky to win 40% statewide. She'd carry Madison and Milwaukee, but little else. A wave year can't carry everyone to shore. She'd drown. #WIGOV

[Justin Stapley @JustinWStapley]

It's quite a way to celebrate the 250th anniversary of a free nation to cheer and laugh at a depiction of the most powerful man in government assaulting and violently throwing a private citizen into a dumpster, over nothing else but words that offend him and his supporters.

A stunner in Glastonbury tonight. State Representative Jill Barry defeated at Glastonbury Democratic nominating caucus.
