This is remarkable. Trump is giving Pulte, who lacks the statutory qualification (national security expertise) for the DNI job the position so they can manufacture another stolen election charge, or perhaps try to justify halting them altogether. It’s out in the open.
Zelenskyy tells Putin: "We must determine what kind of future awaits the generations of Ukrainians and Russians who will come after us.
"If you do not personally come to the conclusion that it is time to end this war, Ukraine will continue fighting for its existence. We will have those who support us.

WHAT THE ACTUAL FUCK. This is insane. Republicans are voiding elections that have already happened to change the maps to get the results they want. They're dismantling democracy.
