Dan Rather spots trouble Trump can't avoid much longer: 'Subject is bound to come up'

"Most Americans don’t want to think about it, but in the background of these developments is this: Article III, Section 3 of the Constitution defines treason against the United States as 'levying War against them, or in adhering to their Enemies, giving them Aid and Comfort.' By any objective measure, lifting Russian sanctions is giving aid and comfort to an enemy," Rather argued.

Things go from bad to worse. Trump 🇺🇸 seems to regret that 🇷🇺 didn’t conquer 🇺🇦 immediately, and blame the failure on some incompetent 🇷🇺 general. Who feeds him this strange stuff? Or does he just invent it because he wishes it was so?

Trump's plan for peace and cheaper gas? Help fund Russia's war

Absolutely spot on and incredibly terrifying!

Further demonstrating how out of touch the Russian occupied White House is with Americans, new Pew Research polling data confirms that Americans hate Russia as much as they love Canada.

I don’t think Europeans fully appreciate what is happening to the European Union right now.

The EU is under an extraordinary, multi-front assault, both from outside and from within. And I struggle to think of another period in its history when so many powerful actors had an interest in weakening it simultaneously.

Russia has spent years waging hybrid warfare against Europe. Weaponised migration, sabotage, cyberattacks, coordinated disinformation campaigns, bot networks and political interference. The objective is clear: undermine trust in democratic institutions, deepen social divisions and weaken European unity.

China has different motivations, primarily economic and geopolitical. A fragmented Europe is easier to pressure, easier to negotiate with individually and less capable of defending its economic interests.

And then there is the United States. Perhaps the most disturbing development of all.

Under Trump and MAGA, a country that helped rebuild the old continent and then spent decades supporting European integration now has an administration openly hostile to much of what the EU represents. Its own National Security Strategy even calls for cultivating resistance to Europe’s current political direction.

Think about that for a moment.

Meanwhile, within Europe, parts of the far right and far left amplify these divisions, whether through ideological alignment, political opportunism or outright sympathy for authoritarian regimes.

This doesn’t mean Russia, China and MAGA are all following some jointly coordinated master plan. They don’t have to. Their interests increasingly overlap, and Europe’s internal divisions make their work considerably easier.

What makes this particularly alarming is what is actually at stake.

For all its flaws, the EU remains one of the world’s most consequential projects built around liberal democracy, the rule of law, individual freedoms and cooperation between nations.

At a time when authoritarianism is gaining ground and even longstanding democracies are showing disturbing tendencies, that matters enormously.

Europe is far from perfect. Its bureaucracy, indecision and inability to act decisively are real problems. But the answer cannot be to retreat into 27 competing nation-states, each too small to meaningfully influence a world increasingly dominated by continental powers.

Quite the opposite.

Europe needs deeper integration, stronger common institutions, genuine strategic autonomy and the political courage to defend its interests and values.

Because fragmentation is precisely what so many external actors want.

And perhaps that’s the central irony of our time: people are being deliberately manipulated into believing that the reverse is true — that national identity and sovereignty can only be protected by weakening European cooperation. In reality, a divided Europe is less sovereign, less secure and far easier for outside powers to pressure. Therefore the very thing that will make Europe stronger is the thing its adversaries are working hardest to prevent.

A united Europe is a geopolitical power. A divided Europe is a collection of countries waiting to be played against one another.

I’ll tell ya what…Putin must be sitting on the greatest, most damning shit on Trump. I mean, it must be gold. Just absolute gold.👇

Anonymous assesses that the far-left riots in France are occurring with cooperation from Russian intelligence.

Getting Le Pen into office is Putin's prime concern right now for paralyzing the EU.

Russia gets Ukraine and Iran ends the war

This is the deal Trump made with Putin

Jeg kender ikke Søren Gade privat og har heller ikke arbejdet tæt sammen med ham.

Men da jeg efter min “tredje erkendelse”-tale i Folketinget i april 2024 blev udsat for et kæmpe stormvejr, jeg aldrig før havde oplevet – hvor der blev råbt efter mig på gaden, raset i medierne, og skrevet svinerier i anonyme kommentarspor – skrev han til mig.

Det var der faktisk ikke særlig mange kolleger, der gjorde så tidligt. Med hans tilladelse deler jeg derfor sms’en her. Jeg tror desværre, at en del lige skulle se, om det nu kunne betale sig at række ud. Det behøvede Søren ikke vente på. Han gjorde det mens juryen var ude.

Det vil jeg aldrig glemme. Det har lært mig noget om godt kollegaskab, som jeg altid vil bære med mig videre.

Tak for det, Søren. God vind i dit nye liv uden for Christiansborgs tykke mure. Jeg håber og tror, at der venter dig og dine nærmeste noget godt.

This is Angelina. She was 1 year old.

She was murdered today when Russian strikes purposely targeted a children’s playground in Kharkiv. Ukraine.

Angelina’s mother was also killed along with an 11 year old girl and 3 other people.

The Russians are a cancer on this earth.

[Smirkley @Smirkley]

Based Russia, compared to Socialist:

Denmark, nearly 10x the murder rate, 17x the HIV rate, and 57x the share of homes without full indoor plumbing.

Ex-Präsident der Ukraine Wiktor Juschtschenko:
„Niemand hat es besser ausgedrückt als Golda Meir: Wir haben kaum Spielraum für Kompromisse – sie wollen uns töten, und wir wollen leben.“

[Joe Scarborough @ScarboroughNow]

10 years ago today @HillaryClinton nailed the bleak future ahead if Trump was elected.

“Clinton: Putin would rather have a puppet as president. You won't admit the Russians engaged in cyberattacks against the US, that you encouraged espionage against our people, that you spout the Putin line, sign up for his wish list, break up NATO, do whatever he wants you to do.”

Every word is true. Tragically, his capitulation to Russia is even worse than imagined.
