HODGES: We should stop being deterred by threats, and remind Putin that we have thousands of nuclear weapons, too. And every time he threatens to use nuclear weapons, or Medvedev mumbles about nuclear strike against Warsaw, that’s another shipload of ammunition going to Ukraine.

Things conservatives told me when I was in my 20’s:

*Character counts
*Crony capitalism is bad
*Russia is our enemy
*Tariffs are taxes
*The Constitution is sacrosanct
*Government power should be limited, restrained, and checked by congress.

Guess they were just joking.

This video went ultra viral online. Everyone is laughing at the Russian military for being so pathetic.

“Putin fears a democratic Ukraine more than NATO tanks, because a free and successful Ukraine destroys the ideological foundation of his regime.”

WOW -- Danish reporter *goes there* with Mark Rutte

"You sit next to Donald Trump at moments when he talks about conquering Greenland, talks about lashing out at allies like Spain -- things it doesn't seem like the old Mark Rutte would approve of. Does this have any affect on your self-respect when you sit there and say nothing?"

A Russian man is waiting in line at the gas station. “I’ve had enough of this,” says the man to his wife. “Take the wheel, I’m going to go shoot Putin.” Two hours later, he returns and sits back in the driver’s seat. “Did you shoot him?” Asks the wife. “No, the line to shoot Putin is longer than this one!”

"Vladimir Vladimirovich Putin, what the f*ck is going on?" A Russian woman asks.

She's been standing in lines for three days to get fuel - without success.

First, it was "Kyiv in three days," now it's "fill your fuel tank in three days".

Putin has begun sealing up their borders so that Russian men can't escape the country before the next round of mass mobilization.

[Rep. Jared Huffman @RepHuffman]

Every American should be outraged by what Trump has done to our nation's 250th birthday celebration. What should have been a once-in-a-generation moment to unite the country has been turned into another vehicle for division, propaganda, and political gain.

We uncovered how he hijacked America 250 – watch to see how.

[Steve Rattner @SteveRattner]

Trump’s net worth has nearly tripled in his second term, reaching $6.5 billion.

His administration is the most brazenly self-enriching in American history.

APPLEBAUM: Putin presented a fake image of Russia to the world. He talks about himself as leader of traditional society.

In fact, divorce rates are very high in Russia, abortion is very common, very few Russians go to church, and less than 5% of Russians have ever read a Bible.

So it's not an especially religious or traditional culture, but Putin has made himself the face of that idea because it's politically advantageous.

He uses it both to build support, to court, and to win over sympathizers in the West, and maybe he uses it at home as well.

It looks a little bit like how in the 1930s Soviet communists also sold a vision of the Soviet Union to Americans and Europeans about how marvelous it was and how they had discovered a new kind of political system.

If you've never been to Russia, Russia is a large country, it's far away, so you can imagine a lot of things about it. You can create a kind of imaginary Russia, an imaginary Soviet Union.

Especially if you only visit Moscow and St. Petersburg, like most tourists do. But most of the people who admire Russia haven't even been to Moscow and St. Petersburg.

It's very similar today. You have a part of European right and American right who have this imaginary Russia that they use as a symbol, without understanding that it has no relationship to reality.

It isn't just Ireland that's helping russia, it's the whole of Europe. This year I travelled across the EU to expose how the shadow fleet transports billions of euros in oil to russias war machine. All of this could have been stopped years ago.

Trump's family crypto business is expected to soon be allowed to operate like a bank — a decision, made by the Trump administration, that would give U.S. companies a new route to steer money to the president.

"For the first time in history, a president is leaning on a bank regulator to give his private enterprise the implicit backing of the federal government." https://t.co/Kq7ToFVZgi

[Timothy Snyder @TimothyDSnyder]

In countries that have successfully reversed democratic backsliding in recent years—from Poland in 2023 to Hungary in 2026—opposition movements made prosecuting those who have broken laws a central campaign issue.

Mon Dieu.

Versailles.

Macron is trolling the grand ignoramus @realDonaldTrump like no one has ever trolled him before.

The only thing he could have done worse to Trump would have been put Trump's name on the Compiègne Forest rail car and tricked him into signing it there.
