A definitive guide to the Russian zombie diplomacy of Trump’s peace plan for Ukraine — aka what happens when you let the Russians eat your brains
The “peace plan” for Ukraine is just a framework for Russia & the US to take assets away from Ukrainian recovery, and to ensure Russia evades accountability for war crimes
Europe can, and must, craft better with Ukraine
A point by point analysis of the shambles:

The Trump administration is ignoring & violating the Constitution & court orders.
We're in a Constitutional crisis & elected Republicans don't give a fk.
But some conservative & independent voters are unaware of what's happening & those are the ones we must reach.

My family members were killed in the Holocaust—an evil era that went from deportations and a system where you had to show your papers & people were put in detention, to the tortorous murder of 6 million Jews, human experiments & 70-85M total deaths in WWII.
See the pattern?

Trump’s DOE may soon force more coal plants to stay open
Colorado coal plants are likely to face DOE orders to keep running past planned closure dates, even as the costs of keeping an old Michigan plant open…
The Trump admin seems set to force two Colorado coal plants to stay open past their planned closure this year, even as the costs of keeping an aging, unnecessary Michigan coal plant running through the summer top $80M. Are more must-run orders coming?

Transcript: The Dems Blinked, and That Will Embolden Trump
TNR’s Monica Potts and Alex Shephard say the Democrats’ decision to cut a deal and end the shutdown was stupid but not surprising.
"Part of the strategy was Spanberger using the political capital that Virginia voters gave her to throw her party under the bus. That's the kind of person she has shown herself to be, somebody who takes grassroots energy and dulls it," says @alexshephard.bsky.social. newrepublic.com/article/2029...

This is an absolutely insane administrative process. Within the space of a week, states were told by judges/White House
*no SNAP benefits
*half benefits
*full benefits
*pause provision of benefits.
Result is chaos, uncertainty, and uneven access to benefits depending on where people live.

There are people with medically necessary food restrictions, autistic children with ARFID, & those with food allergies who rely on SNAP to access safe foods to not starve.
Trump choosing to defy a court order to fund SNAP is an intentional decision to starve Americans.

While you're stuck in endless security lines, with delayed and canceled flights, the super-rich get to keep flying unencumbered (and spew way more than their fair share of carbon emissions, too). At least some privileged folks realize how uncool this is...
