The EU is running out of Ukrainians to kill Russians, so they’re going to pay poors from the Global South to kill Russians for them. Ukraine’s population has collapsed from 52 million in 1991, to about 20 million today.
Democrats, having spent 5 weeks doing nothing but silently go along with Trump’s barbaric war, are now complaining that he chickened out. They are going on cable news and lamenting the fact that Trump didn’t commit a genocide tonight. Deeply deeply unserious people. Scum, even.
What's the point of a gazillion dollar navy if it's too vulnerable against second-tier power Iran and semi-state actor Houthis. This same US Navy hiding far outside Iran's range is supposed to be able to take on peer competitor China in the South China Sea. A lucrative grift.
Trump didn't bother spending a year propagandizing us for war because he doesn't have to. The US system is deeply autocratic. We have a fake opposition party, circumscribed elections & a foreign policy/imperial apparatus completely removed from democracy.

Congressional progressives should definitely NOT be calling on the deployment of the national guard by Walz. They are all on the same side, liberal handwringing and consternation notwithstanding.
The unreconstructed Democratic Party is not an opposition party, nor is it capable of opposing the violent oligarchic system that the party serves, and if you still hold out hope or think it can change itself after all these rug-pulls that's on you

I broke down the ICE “reforms” being proposed by Dem leadership. tl;dr: They totally avoid touching ICE’s funding, in key ways actually increase ICE funding and instead focus on meaningless busywork like “body cams” and “more training”.
@MichaelLongane1@mattvanswol@CollinRugg Postal Service Reform Act (2022): This landmark legislation provided approximately $50 billion in financial relief by eliminating the requirement to prepay retiree health benefits and shifting postal retirees into Medicare.
