I want you to understand this is happening in our name and we know most of these men committed no crimes. One is a professional soccer player who was tortured in Venezuela and was working through asylum in the U.S. ICE shipped him for his Real Madrid tattoo and a picture throwing rock & roll horns.

Zelensky is a wartime leader watching his people suffer and die under Russian attacks every day. To be lectured and lied to by Trump and Vance, as they defend the war criminal dictator committing these atrocities, is unimaginable agony. An everlasting shame for America.

Social media post by Steven Rattner (@SteveRattner
) with the text: 'If you include aid that’s been promised but not yet allocated, Europe is putting twice as much money towards supporting Ukraine.' The post includes a bar chart titled 'Aid Promised to Ukraine: US vs Europe,' showing the US has promised $125 billion ($120 spent in the US, $5 spent outside) and Europe has promised $259 billion ($138 allocated, $121 promised). The chart, labeled 'My @Morning_Joe
chart,' cites sources from the Kiel Institute and CSIS, with red and blue bars representing the US and Europe, respectively.
Facts matter.

Any psychologist or psychiatrist (or former abused spouse) will tell you that President Zelensky gave a master class today on how to deal with a malignant narcissist.
He is an amazing man. We can all learn from him.

America doesn’t provide foreign aid because we’re a benevolent nation (there wouldn’t be homeless veterans or hungry children if we were). We provide foreign aid because it’s a means to a safer and more secure homeland. Cutting foreign aid makes us less safe and less secure. Period!

Hardly a surprise but it's still difficult to fathom the level of contempt Republicans have for servicemembers to allow this low-life untreated-alcoholic rapist TV show host with no qualifications and no redeeming qualities to be Secretary of Defense.

Imagine the message to America's enemies that the Secretary of Defense - normally a position filled by overwhelming bipartisan consensus - has squeaked into his job with a Vance tie-breaker after repeated concerns about his character and lack of experience.

I see people posting that Elon was at Auschwitz this time last year - therefore, his recent "gesture" is not antisemitic. I was there, too. Last year. With Elon. I am embarrassed that I have photos of this on my phone. My love, Gidon Lev, was the "special guest" of this photo-op event. We thought, at the time, that it would be good publicity. But I would not share the photo today. I chatted with Elon Musk. I spent hours with him and walked with him through Auschwitz. I stood with him, looking at the nauseating heaps of hair, luggage, and shoes flooded with violet light meant to preserve it.
Is Musk an antisemite? People, actually, it's worse - he doesn't care whatsoever. Elon, father of "little X" as he described his freezing cold son to me, literally does not care. He was unmoved by the experience. For Gidon, to be in the place where his father, Ernst, died on a death march - whether shot by the side of the road or having simply collapsed - was a huge deal. Elon did not care. He was about his press junket and his bodyguards. I was ten feet from him as he posed for the cameras of his entourage. He was utterly detached. He cared about how he looked. When he placed a wreath at Auschwitz and Gidon was overlooked, he walked away with the cameras whirring. This is Elon Musk. A sociopath, if ever there was one. To deduce, from this visit, that he is a friend of the Jews is desperately naive.
Julie Gray, wife of Holocaust survivor Gidon Lev, who joined Musk in his visit to Auschwitz speaks out. She says that Musk felt nothing during the tour & only "cared about how he looked."
She shared this with me privately shortly after the tour, and I'm grateful she made her thoughts public.

The ERA has been ratified by 38 states and met all criteria to become part of the Constitution. But it remains in procedural limbo, awaiting publication. President Biden could take final action on the ERA and secure gender equality in the Constitution. www.sacbee.com/opinion/arti...
