@YLatynina У меня вопрос к комментирующим тут. Если Латынина гебешный рупор, то зачем вы ей отвечаете? А если Латынина просто дура, то зачем вы ей отвечаете?

If only Nixon had thought to flood the zone with so much open and notorious crime and corruption that no particular act would muster enough outrage to take down a presidency.

Crazy.

I think I found the reason the water in the Reflecting Pool turned green.

“You say you want green water? Yeah, we can do that. It’s right there in our name!”

@SteveDavies365 Um, didn’t Europeans build all those castles and mansions? The idea that a big house is a good thing must not be entirely foreign to them. Let us not be ridiculous.

I bucked all advice from my friends (and resisted my conservative bias) and decided to fully trust the Times journalists.

As they left my home they asked that I not talk to any other outlets and I insisted then and repeatedly over the following weeks that I would keep my word and only share this story with them.

But then the weeks dragged on. They kept coming back to us saying the editors needed more. I needed to go on the record (okay). We need more screenshots (okay). I met every bench mark they set, eager to provide more sources or evidence as needed.

After the story went up I began to ask them … wait, where are the stories from the other women? Where are their accusations of sexual assault? Why am I the focus? Why are there 11 paragraphs dedicated to detailing my work history (more than has been published about Graham’s by far)?

Why does it say “nobody could corroborate” when I offered them sources that COULD corroborate?

Why did they include an out of context quote from a friend joking “do not call Graham” after I called off my wedding? (Because she knew I would never).

Where were the screenshots they’d said they would use? Or the mention that I’d supported local democrats and that most of my family (and husband) are liberal?

The editors said it was too much, they explained.

The Times also failed to include any mention that I DID confide in multiple friends through the years that Graham had been abusive — long before he was running for office. Those friends confirm they told the Times so.

It dawned on me that this really was a set up all along. The journalists I trusted who convinced me to share a story I never wanted to tell methodically delayed and twisted this into a gift to the Platner campaign. Violating the trust of his victims. Shattering the trust I placed in them with the most vulnerable story of my life.

And at the end of my call with them I reluctantly accepted their insistence that this was still a powerful story and that I had done a brave thing. And I thanked them for all the hard work they had put into it.

Still fawning after all these years.

I mean, expropriating land to give to your ideologically aligned cadres is the most authentically socialist thing he's ever done.

Shame on us. I think of the brave Afghans that stood alongside us against the Taliban, especially those I worked with personally during my four years in command of the NATO mission there. It is incomprehensible to me that we would not bring them here to the United States, fulfilling the most fundamental obligations of trust and honor. https://t.co/An3nK0aadT

@agraybee They meant a verb i think.

1/2. Notice that after losing the war Trump threatens his allies rather than Russia — even though Russia quite literally helped Iran defeat the US and he knows it.

@christogrozev Yeah, being born in Ukrainian SSR means nothing here.

I am a Ukrainian Nobel Peace Prize Laureate. I have a question. 

Why has Trump's year of negotiations been the deadliest for civilians in Ukraine since the full-scale invasion? The number of deaths and injuries has increased by 31 percent compared to the previous year.
Why did Putin not allow himself such brutal strikes on civilian infrastructure under Biden, whom Trump calls “weak,” but totally destroys peaceful cities and disregards the “strong Trump”?

🎯 Any one of these Russian attacks on Ukrainian civilians would be front-page news around the world requiring immediate action were they committed by terrorists in Berlin or Paris or London or New York. Normalizing the intentional slaughter of innocents is horrific.

[Illia Ponomarenko 🇺🇦 @IAPonomarenko]

Inhuman monsters from Russia today simply went ahead and struck an ordinary bus with a drone -- a bus carrying Ukrainian coal miners (!!!) on their way to work near the city of Pavlohrad.

Fifteen people were killed, as of now.

For what? Why? What did those hardworking miners do to the Russian monsters? Why this inhuman and senseless killing for the sake of killing itself?

Because they were Ukrainians, alive, and honestly working in their own country, Ukraine?

Is this what that shameless stooge Witkoff calls “Russia working to ensure peace”?

All of this immeasurable scum has their hands drenched up to the shoulders in Ukrainian blood -- any they will never, never, NEVER wash it off.

[Chris D. Jackson @ChrisDJackson]

@jaketapper I’m just amazed how free you were to opine endlessly about Joe Biden, yet now it’s straight news links about Trump with zero commentary.

So which is it, fear or hypocrisy?
