Anyone surprised?

“The WSJ reports the depletion of U.S. weapons stocks in the Iran war could be motivating Putin to consider making a move on a NATO country.”

This is what no strategy for the Iran war & allowing Russia to do whatever it wants gets us.

So much for America 1st.

[Joni Askola @joni_askola]

Most people completely underestimate the insane, inhumane scale of the war in Ukraine.

According to the Uppsala Conflict Data Program, the siege of Mariupol alone saw between 27,000 and 88,000 deaths in only three (3!) months.

Read that again and let it sink in

[Garry Kasparov @Kasparov63]

Russia is mass murdering Ukrainian civilians every day. Putin is a wanted war criminal whose terrorist nation systematically kidnaps children by the thousands, tortures and rapes in occupied lands, and is now trying to hide mass graves. If Putin comes, America has fallen.

[Doug Jones @DougJones]

Charging the Southern Poverty Law Center with a federal crime for paying informants to help dismantle hate groups is an outrageous weaponization of the Dept of Justice and the FBI. As someone who has been a prosecutor and has taken on the Klan I can tell you that use of paid informants is a common tactic used to dismantle drug cartels, the mob and extremist groups on both the right and the left. It is clear that all civil rights organizations are in the cross hairs of this Administration and that folks, puts everyone at risk.

The president is handing out oversized clown shoes to his cabinet—and watching to see who refuses to wear them.

It's Solzhenitsyn's Stalin story come to life: the first person to stop applauding ended up in the gulag. The lesson then, as now—never be the first to stop clapping.

It's almost as if Benghazi never happened.

@JustinWolfers @KlasfeldReports Yes, but all the same, everybody needs to lean in.

[Nicholas Kristof @NickKristof]

As someone who covered Tiananmen in 1989, it pains me to feel the need to retweet this about the US.

[Garry Kasparov @Kasparov63]

The only reason long range fires like Taurus and Tomahawks are not in Ukrainian hands comes down to "Putin wouldn’t like it". Letting a KGB dictator set your security policy is absurd cowardice. The costs for Ukraine have been horrific and the costs for Europe keep going up.

[Garry Kasparov @Kasparov63]

Believe it when you see it and even then, only when you see it enforced. Trump and his allies have spent a year giving Russia every advantage, using occasional threats to delay European action.

[Brian Schatz @brianschatz]

A six year old is an orphan because the government shot the mom, and now they are lying about it. This conduct will go down in infamy like the govt agents who kidnapped native kids, or those who incarcerated Japanese Americans. Shame, forever.

@danielsgoldman Persuade the Republicans in purple districts (you have some in NY) to caucus with Dems and you can start on that now.

[Daniel Goldman @danielsgoldman]

The seeds of everything Trump is doing now can be directly traced back to his 1st impeachment:

1) sucking up to Putin, his idol.
2) using the power of his office for personal gain.
3) ignoring career officials who make our democracy work.

The difference? A pathetic, pliant GOP.

[Argemino Barro @Argemino]

La mayor parte de los problemas de EEUU se reducen a uno: la corrupción es legal. Cuando permites que las corporaciones y grandes fortunas financien campañas, les entregas el poder político.

Lo dice la senadora Slotkin: el Congreso está sobornado.

[(((Barry Stein))) 🇺🇦 @barryjsteinfbr]

@JustJeanne444 @allenanalysis She wants to run for Jon Ossoff’s senate seat.

[Garry Kasparov @Kasparov63]

Still.

Here's something everybody should be paying attention to: Congressional Republicans are trying to weaken the Affordable Care Act and put millions of people at risk of losing their health care. Call your Senators and tell them we can't let that happen. https://t.co/jTKreuCNWZ

[Daniel Goldman @danielsgoldman]

Trump golfed for 31 days of his first 100.

Now, instead of funding disaster relief, the GOP directed $300M in FEMA funding to pay for Trump's golf security while communities destroyed by natural disasters are being denied aid.

Again and again, he chooses himself over Americans.
