No one should be fooled by Trump's ongoing hollow performative support of Ukraine. His fundamental allegiance to Vladimir Putin's imperial project has never wavered.

1/ A Russian soldier has spoken of his experience of mutinying with his comrades against his commander and subsequently deserting. "Don't go to fight, no matter what they promise you," he says. "There's only one thing there—death." ⬇️

Powerful, grubby men using their connections to cover their abuse of a trafficked teenage girl.

After all the revelations, it's never "not" shocking.

Imagine being the largest newspaper in Washington, DC with the motto "Democracy Dies in Darkness" and thinking to publish this today.

You might think WaPo editors would look out the window and realize something more important is happening. But perhaps democracy already died over there.

Pritzker: Throughout history we've learned that tyranny doesn't arrive with dramatic proclamations. Most times it comes quietly wrapped in the language of law and order, with fingers pointed at someone who doesn't look like you, promising safety while demanding that we sacrifice our neighbors.

The only explanation for this is that these people would disprove the administration’s narrative about the identity of the people we are murdering. I’m a little surprised they didn’t just straight-up murder these two in custody. That’s who the government is now.

Breaking News: The Trump administration has decided to repatriate two survivors of a deadly U.S. strike this week on suspected drug runners in the Caribbean Sea rather than prosecute them or hold them in military detention, people with knowledge of the matter said on Saturday.

U.S. to Repatriate Survivors of Its Strike on Suspected Drug Vessel

The U.S. military rescued the two men in the Caribbean Sea after Special Operations forces fired on a semi-submersible that was assessed to be smuggling drugs.

No nation should permit Russian war criminals to enter Europe.

Hungary was a deliberate, strategic choice, one that serves Orban and Putin, sending a message of division and weakness to the rest of Europe.

Trump’s rhetoric is nothing but noise, handing Putin every advantage he needs, and can.

No one in the GOP Hitler chat was a "kid," JD Vance. We checked.

By scanning public records and media reports, Mother Jones determined the ages of eight of the 11 participants in the abhorrent leaked texts from young Republicans that Politico covered on Tuesday: They appear to range from 24 to 35.
