Every American needs to remember that Russia is only able to invade and terrorize Ukraine because, in 1994, the US and UK convinced them to give up their nuclear weapons.
They voiced specific concerns about a Russian invasion.
We promised to protect them.
Trump wants to break our promise.

STOP conceding that Trump can legitimately expand grab by deploying baseless claims of “emergency.”

I’m fascinated at how reactive dems get over a Newsom presidency at this point in time. One has to separate the importance of the redistricting fight right now from what may or may not happen in the 2028 primary race.

When every big decision needs a permission slip from the White House, you don’t get dynamism—you get a command-and-control economy. Fewer experiments, less risk-taking, and living standards that slowly slip behind. It won't happen overnight, but your kids will feel it.

Kalanick is one of those people I wouldn’t trust regardless of what they said.
