I’m confused because Trump months ago demanded that India stop buying Russian oil and he told us that Modi agreed not to. What happened with that?

Here’s every Democratic ad for the midterms. 👇

Well done to Ireland, Spain, the Netherlands and Slovenia.

And shame on Eurovision.

Here is what I don’t understand about the fishing boats. THEY ARE HUMANs. They have families they are residents of a country people know them. Why are we nit hearing more about them. All this would bury the admin if people talked. Why isn’t that happening.

As a former prosecutor, I know a grand jury would indict a ham sandwich. The grand jury’s refusal today to indict Letitia James shows this case should never have been brought.

When we flip the House, we will investigate everyone involved for abuse of power.

Himes: It was exceedingly hard to watch. Even if you stipulate that it is a war, there is a very specific prohibition against killing individuals who have been removed from the fight. And there is no question that these individuals were removed from the fight.

A peace deal that rewards invasion is not peace — it’s an invitation for more war.

🇺🇸🇺🇦 According to the Financial Times, the peace plan delivered by the Americans to Moscow included issues that had not been approved by the Ukrainians for discussion.

Day 1381 of Ukraine fighting for its life, fighting for the lives of every single person in the largest country entirely within Europe.

Imagine going to bed 1,381 times in a row not knowing if you'll be woken by missiles, if you'll still have a home or even be alive.
The Daily🧵 is here:

Eight russian targets in Crimea destroyed — in just two weeks.

The GUR “Ghosts” unit continues its precise demilitarization of occupied Crimea.

Over the past 14 days alone, their drones have hit eight high-value military targets, striking at Russia’s logistics, aviation and radar capabilities.👇

What's Not Being Said about the Alleged Pipe Bomber - emptywheel The arrest affidavit for Brian Cole, now accused of laying the pipe bombs discovered on January 6, includes only purchase records and location information. There's not a single data point between the ...

Here's my post on what's in the affidavit.

A google map showing a pedestrian walking between the cell towers accused pipe bomber Richard Cole pinged on January 5. The first two are west of 395, where his car was viewed exiting at 7:10PM. His cell first pings BOTH towers at 103 G Street and 200 Independence at 7:39. The last ping, at 8:24, is on a tower at 600 Pennsylvania.

The FBI's map of where the pipe bomber was captured on video when. The first location, at 7:34, is at North Carolina and 1st Street. All locations are within 6 blocks of that.

This is VERY rough. But here's a Google map showing the towers Robert Cole's phone pinged on, per complaint, and the FBI map on where the pipe bomber was caught on surveillance.

☠️🔥 The invaders tried to break through AFU defense line with an armored column, but our soldiers heavily bombarded with Russians, as a result, the invaders lost equipment, the infantry was eliminated, and had to retreat with losses.

Maybe instead of committing atrocities, we could just make the rich pay their fair share and have universal healthcare and affordable housing instead.

Idk, just spitballing here.

Advocates boycotting Univision and Telemundo for airing ICE ads The boycott campaign calls on Telemundo and Univision to stop airing the DHS ads because they say they sow fear among Latinos.

Almost everyone in the world has done more for peace than Donald Trump, because his power and policies have mostly caused death and chaos

JUST IN: Mike Johnson plans to swear in Rep.-elect Matt Van Epps on Thursday — less than two days after he won the TN-07 special election.

As a reminder, it took Johnson 50 days to swear in Democratic Rep. Adelita Grijalva.

Russia sends stolen Ukrainian children to North Korea to become militarized.

A new analysis projects a 24% cut to Social Security benefits by late 2032. Trump's "big, beautiful bill" will cause sharp cuts to Social Security by late 2032, a new analysis says.

🚨 #SocialSecurity is on the chopping block. Thanks to Trump’s so-called “One Big Beautiful Bill,” retirees are now staring down $18,000-a-year benefit cut in just seven years. Seniors who paid in their whole lives are left holding the bag.
– $13,600 cut for a typical retired couple.

Trump is fighting the Institute of Peace in court. Now, his name is on the building The Trump administration has renamed the U.S. Institute of Peace after President Donald Trump, despite an ongoing fight over the institute's control.

Trump is fighting the Institute of Peace in court. Now, his name is on the building

“The takeover of the Peace Institute was also anything but peaceful, seizing the independent entity and ousting its board before affixing his name to the building.”

🚨 CNBC on latest jobs numbers: "A big miss on ADP payrolls. The private payroll company saying private payrolls shed 32,000 workers in Nov. That's the 4th negative number in past 6 months. The estimate was for +40,000, so the street was off ... this may be coming from being hammered by the tariffs"

United Nations Secretary-General Guterres:
I think it's important,in relation to #Ukraine at the present moment,not to forget the principles.First,it was Russia that invaded Ukraine,not the other way around.Second,the solution of the conflict should be…respect for the territorial integrity of states

“I think” is how a system run by a king or a dictator works. Here, we have a rule of law that says no one, and that includes the government, can murder people on a whim because it “thinks” they’re up to no good.
