Four years into the war on Ukraine, Vladimir Putin’s bluff must be called With a weakened economy and battlefield casualties outnumbering new recruits, Putin is projecting false confidence.

Russia's labor shortage is equal to its casualties in its stupid invasion. Funny that.

Plus, Russia has finally gotten to the point where casualties exceed recruits. Hence, Ukraine's gains on the battlefield.

Ukraine is winning the war.

A president does not dictate what speech is allowed.  A president does not dictate who a company can hire or fire or have sit on their board.  A president does not dictate when a merger pleases him and when it does not. Only a dictator does.  And we will not allow one in the United States.  Not now.  Not ever.

Robert Duvall, R.I.P. From β€˜True Grit’ to β€˜The Godfather’ to β€˜Apocalypse Now,’ a mainstay of American cinema.

"It was always just really reassuring to see Robert Duvall show up in something." In some ways that's the greatest praise you could give an actor. ICYMI @sonnybunch.bsky.social:

A historic blizzard is about to shut down the Northeast with up to 2 feet of snow | CNN The snowstorm will be one of the biggest in years for millions of people in the region.

Weather technology provides ample time to prepare for big storms like the one expected in New England today and tomorrow. This saves lives. If you are in a vulnerable area it's still not too late to prepare so you are not caught off guard. Stay safe out there!

Thank you to Greenland for providing emergency medical care to a US sailor on board the submarine, since we did not have adequate resources in the area to treat him. I’m sorry that our president felt the need to cover up our shortcomings with a deranged ghost hospital ship post.

DoJ cases against protesters keep collapsing as officers’ lies are exposed in court String of embarrassing defeats for prosecutors as experts condemn DoJ effort to cast people as β€˜violent perpetrators’

"In Chicago, of 92 people arrested for assaulting or impeding officers last fall, 74 cases have resulted in no charges; in 13 cases, charges were filed and dismissed; and five charged cases were still pending. . . there have been no convictions.

This is exactly right. The Onion quietly left Twitter a month ago and... our weekly subscribers went up. It's because we're doing well here, on Instagram and on YouTube.

As a business, being on Twitter is somewhere between useless or detrimental, unless you're selling boner pills.

Trump’s New Voter I.D. Threat Is His Gravest Attack on Democracy Yet The president says he’ll do it β€œwhether approved by Congress or not!” He can’t legally do thatβ€”but that hasn’t stopped him before.

A federal election has never been postponed or canceled in the history of the United States. Ever. And Donald Trump's β€œevidence” of β€œDemocrat cheating" is entirely fake. There is no mass voter fraud. trib.al/1ewzrp5

For decades, Jeffrey Epstein operated in our state without accountability. Not anymore.

Proud to be in this fight with Rep. Andrea Romero and the #NMleg, and that’s why she will be my guest for the State of the Union.
