I am genuinely astonished that, after Donald Trump has spent the past two years stripping Ukraine of virtually all Congressionally-approved aid, threatening Ukraine, fawning over Putin and bending over backwards to please him in every conceivable way, blaming Ukraine for being invaded, hurling vicious, absurd insults, blackmail, and torrents of lies at it, twisting its arm to force it into capitulation, humiliating it with his antics, making it a scapegoat for his own failures and incompetence in the eyes of voters, and now openly and definitively entering into direct collusion with the Kremlin and siding with it in exchange for promised corrupt “business opportunities” for himself, his family, and his inner circle -- there are still people who have the nerve search with a magnifying glass for ways in which Zelensky failed to kiss Trump's ass enthusiastically enough to explain why he has been treating Ukraine this way.

A wild story: the CEO of a US energy company whose plans were discussed during the Witkoff-Kushner-Putin negotiations resigns. Why? He learned that his company's main investor is a sanctioned Russian company, not the UAE

Trump and his team act like they are mediating between two countries equally responsible for the war in Ukraine.
That framework is morally and analytically wrong and does not advance peace.
Treating Putin like he deserves something from his illegal, barbaric invasion only emboldens him to ask for more.

NEW: Blanche claims DOJ's Alaska lawsuit doesn't seek to block certification of the state's election results. The complaint says it does.
His attempt to reframe the lawsuit is part of a dangerous effort to subvert the midterms.

Bill Clinton: "I think Congress made a mistake not protesting turning the Rose Garden into what looks like the entrance to Liberace's bathroom"

Trump has turned the Justice Department into a taxpayer-funded law firm for the Republican Party.
This ridiculous lawsuit in Alaska is just the beginning of Trump’s attempt to interfere in the midterms and deny voters the opportunity to punish him for corruption and raising your costs.

Crazy thing to say when you literally tried to steal the 2020 election and actively have fought to tip the scales in your favor through mid cycle redistricting

There are students who want to pay full tuition to sit in American classrooms, pay tuition, and contribute to our economy. It's economically backwards to push them away. With @sykescharlie newsletter.platypuseconomics…

All this talk of a ballroom to service the super wealthy while the rest of us continue to pay more for healthcare and basic essentials makes me think of this powerful political cartoon from 1906, the artist is William Balfour Ker.

The significance of Ukraine’s latest attack deep inside Siberia is becoming clear.
The Omsky Kauchuk facility hit tonight is Russia’s largest producer of MTBE, a critical chemical additive used to manufacture high-octane gasoline.
Yesterday, Ukraine targeted Togliattikauchuk, another major MTBE producer. Other facilities producing the additive, including SIBUR plants and several major Russian refineries, have also come under attack.
A pattern emerging is Ukraine targeting the chemical infrastructure essential to Russia's production of high-grade gasoline.
Without sufficient MTBE or alternative additives, Russia faces growing difficulties producing the fuel its economy and military depend upon.
Ukrainian drones have reached deep into Siberia in a spectacular another long-range operation, targeting Russia’s massive Omsky Kauchuk chemical plant in Omsk, approximately 2,500 kilometers from Ukraine.
Established in 1962, the Soviet-era industrial giant is one of Russia’s most important petrochemical producers, with several significant national distinctions:
- Russia’s largest single-unit MTBE production capacity, producing a critical additive used in high-octane gasoline.
- Russia’s largest isopropyl alcohol production facility, with an annual capacity of 60,000 tonnes.
- Russia’s second-largest MTBE producer, accounting for approximately 16% of national production in 2026.
- One of Russia’s leading phenol producers, accounting for approximately 18% of national production in 2021.
- A top synthetic rubber manufacturer, supplying materials used in tires, industrial equipment, hoses, and other civilian and military applications.

Ohio, let's do what we can to elect @AmyActonOH as your next Governor and @SherrodBrown as your next U.S. Senator! They’ve dedicated their lives to fighting on behalf of all Ohioans.
If we’re willing to organize and mobilize, if we’re willing to turn out in big numbers in Ohio and across this country, if we’re willing to vote for change and vote for Democrats up and down the ballot, then this election might just mark the moment this country began moving in a better direction.
So make a plan to vote today at IWillVote.com/OH.

Ukrainian Nobel laureate Matviichuk: Russian occupiers abducted a woman for her pro-Ukrainian views. They tortured her and gang-raped her multiple times.
Then they took her to Russia and fabricated criminal charges against her.
I met her five-year-old daughter. She hugged me, started crying and begged: "Please return my mom."
I'm a human rights lawyer, but I have no legal tools to force Russia to return her mother. I felt broken.
I hugged her and promised we'd fight for her mother until she returned home.

UPDATE: The DOJ’s demand to set aside ballots in California is impossible to carry out and has no basis in federal law, Los Angeles County told a federal court last night.
Voting is already underway, the county said, and once a ballot leaves its envelope, California’s secret-ballot protections mean it can’t be traced back to a voter.

The most important thing today is that Starlink and Starshield operations have been restored to the speeds we had before the restrictions. The speeds are now where they need to be. The restoration began overnight, and by this morning, speeds were already sufficient. This matters: for our frontline logistics, for defending Ukraine against jet-powered “shaheds.”
I thank all Americans and all our partners who took this seriously and truly helped – members of Congress, senators, all the media, the State Department, and the President. Protecting lives matters.
