@AlliFlowers It's easier for his #RU handler to access #patel's private e-mail server in Las Vegas than DC.

The most embarrassing humiliating day in US history. A brave leader stood up to a Russian agent then went home to Ukraine. You know, two women told us he’s a Russian agent. To all of you couldn’t/wouldnt vote for either of them because they had a uterus this is on you.

"Zelenskyy leaves White House early after fiery meeting with Trump, who claims Ukrainian leader isn’t ready for peace – live"

=====

Shameful. Zelenskyy and his fellow brave Ukrainian citizens have been fighting and dying for their country for three years while draft-dodging, convicted felon and rapist Trump has been bloviating and inciting insurrection.

I sure hope the EU comes through because Trump is Putin's man and Trump hates Zelenskyy and any other courageous leader.

How much more proof do we need that this administration is completely compromised? There is zero reason for the US to relax any offensive digital actions against Russia. If anything, we should be applying more.

Martin Matishak over at The Record writes that the former Fox news host turned Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth last week ordered U.S. Cyber Command to stand down from all planning against Russia, including offensive digital actions.

"Hegseth gave the instruction to Cyber Command chief Gen. Timothy Haugh, who then informed the organization's outgoing director of operations, Marine Corps Maj. Gen. Ryan Heritage, of the new guidance, according to these people, who spoke on the condition of anonymity because of the matter’s sensitivity."

"The order does not apply to the National Security Agency, which Haugh also leads, or its signals intelligence work targeting Russia, the sources said."

"While the full scope of Hegseth’s directive to the command remains unclear, it is more evidence of the White House’s efforts to normalize ties with Moscow after the U.S. and international allies worked to isolate the Kremlin over its 2022 invasion of Ukraine."

@MariaHill And our presence on the world stage takes another hit.

International diplomatic relations are an important job of the White House and neither Trump nor Vance are capable of handling the job.

These actions undermine the credibility of the U.S. and our ability to impact not just this situation but many others around the world.

I’m all for community organizing, but we can’t community organize around this kind of thing.

National elections matter.

Here is a picture of Sir Winston #Churchill visiting the White House during the Second World #War. I wonder if anyone would have dared to criticise his outfit?

Why do we have pathetic journalists criticising #Zelensky for not wearing a suit?

#Trump #Vance #Ukraine #Putin #Russia

#Zelensky:

“Thank you America, thank you for your support, thank you for this visit. Thank you (at)POTUS, Congress, & the American people. Ukraine needs just & lasting peace, & we are working exactly for that.”

Unprovoked, the man was berated on live international broadcasts by 2 ignorant bullies. He maintained poise & restraint while attempting to educate #Trump & #Vance & they kicked him out of the White House in feigned indignation.

Still, he swallows his pride & does what #Ukraine needs.

DOGE quietly deleted the 5 biggest spending cuts it celebrated last week:

* An $8 billion cut at ICE was actually for $8 million

* Three $655 million cuts at USAID were actually a single cut erroneously counted three times

* A $232 million cut at the Social Security Administration was actually for just $565,000

'In Texas, the Alice Independent School district sent out this notice to parents saying the school busses for extra-curricular activities could be stopped at highway checkpoints in and out of the Valley, and boarded by US Border Patrol . Undocumented children would be removed from the bus, detained and quite possibly deported.The district was thinking of setting up a chaperone vehicle to accompany the bus so any detained children would not be alone.

I can't alt-text this because it is more than the character limit. This is a screenshot of the letter from the School District.

But #Trump himself did not speak to that issue when he signed the proclamation issuing the #pardons, & it has left his own admin & the courts struggling to divine what was in his head…. [💩]

Asst US Atty Blackwell said the #DOJ’s understanding of Trump’s #pardon had *evolved* in recent wks — but she did not say how or why. She said this shift was the reason DOJ had moved in recent days to drop a slew of other cases against #Jan6 defendants who were on the hook for other federal #felonies.
