To make very clear the "missed opportunity for Ukraine to make peace with Russia" narrative, mentioned quite a lot - at no point since the total invasion of Ukraine began in 2022 was Russia ready to settle for any kind of peace deal that would make further invasions and threats of invasions against Ukraine impossible. Even after defeats around Kyiv, Kharkiv and Kherson, Russia did not change its political objectives for the outcome of the war.

⁦@washingtonpost⁩ ⁦@JeffBezos⁩ Bullshit. Self-serving bullshit. If you’d announced it 3 years ago you might have a point. Now it’s just shameless cowardice, serving your personal relationship with liars and those that attack truth tellers. washingtonpost.com/opinions/…

Amid Talk of Fascism, Trump’s Threats and Language Evoke a Grim Past (Published 2024)

Plenty of presidents have been called dictators by their political opponents, but none until now has been publicly accused of being a “fascist” by his own handpicked advisers.

@TrentTelenko on Thread Reader App threadreaderapp.com/thread/1… Once again, Trent, I find myself agreeing w/ you until you inject your political preferences into your analysis. You've blamed "DEI" in the past, so I'm framing your "political theater" hiring claim in that sense.

@TrentTelenko: This is "the Collapse of Expertise" for an entire US Federal Agency. The USSS failure to tie into local law enforcement is so far below the professional standards of any US law...

Having a Federal government reflective of the population it serves is a reasonable goal. Competence isn't only a product of white males, I've known plenty of incompetent dudes. Hiring the competent is the requirement.

BREAKING: I just did that because I’m tired of seeing it. Let me put this here for ALL REPORTERS (translation, no need to text me). The person who earned over 14 million votes in the Democratic primary is @JoeBiden. He’s stated publicly over and over that he’s not going anywhere. With that, I’ve arrived in Phoenix because I believe in the President & Vice President. I believe in their work & I know with every fiber of my being that they want what’s best for all Americans… even for those that will vote against their interests! So, I’m not sure who said what & when, but I’m not just ridin’ with Biden, I’m working for him on the trail! I will head back to the Capitol to resume my work on behalf of the American people, which looks like the first thing up will be a hearing on the PA shooting.

If and when SCOTUS rules for Presidential Immunity the ONLY reaction should be a full on nationwide protest against SCOTUS and their implementation of a Monarchy. #Resist #Resistance
Kris Shofner@kristineshofner1 Jul 2024
I hope everyone understands the seriousness if SCOTUS rules on the side of Presidential Immunity. It would mean SCOTUS has thrown out the Constitution and put Americans on the road to the Monarchy we overthrew in 1776!

This is the America all these sick fucking Republicans want. Get out and protest SCOTUS this weekend. Retweet and expose every last one of these assholes.

It's time to organize. Consider chipping in at the link in this video to fuel our important efforts to defeat Republicans in the midterms.

I'd like to reiterate what I screamed into the void in 2015: The election is about more than the candidate, it is about who gets to choose SCOTUS justices. Fuck all who "protest voted" and fuck Mitch McConnell for making this happen. #SCOTUS

Technically, I have to write something. But I really have nothing profound to *add*. Presidents are above the law. This is what Republicans want. Republicans control the courts, so they won. When I started talking about court expansion back in 2016... this is why.

After today's SCOTUS majority decision to render Trump's criminality in office as fair game, I offer another shoutout to those of you in swing states who, in 2016, chose to register a protest vote or didn't vote at all because "it doesn't matter."
