Generations of American patriots, from our revolution onward, have fought for the principles Zelenskyy is risking his life to defend. But today, Donald Trump and JD Vance attacked Zelenskyy and pressured him to surrender the freedom of his people to the KGB war criminal who invaded Ukraine.
ZELENSKYY: Putin broke the ceasefire. What kind of diplomacy, JD, are you speaking about?
VANCE: I think it's disrespectful to come into the Oval Office and try to litigate this in front of the American media

There it is! "Putin went through a hell of a lot with me. He went through a phony witch hunt." He is referring to them weathering their collusion becoming public, and now is the big payback: together until the end.
Trump to a reporter who asks him about Russia breaking a ceasefire: "What if a bomb drops on your head right now ... Putin went through a hell of a lot with me. He went through a phony witch hunt."

This whole thing was a deliberate set-up, and the real audience for it was not the American people. It was the global fascist movement.
No, the meeting did not go badly for Ukraine. It exposed in the most undeniable, unequivocal way possible the pro-Putin commitments of the president and vice president. That was information Americans and allies needed to have clear before them.

Phony friendliness and behind-the-scenes treachery from Trump and Vance would have been much more dangerous to the cause of freedom in Ukraine than the self-exposure by both men.

A newly hired advisor at DOJ is a former judge who received what was then Oregon's longest-ever suspension for misconduct.
He also made the news for "for having hung a picture of Adolf Hitler in his courthouse."

There are no words for the disgust I have at someone visiting a concentration camp and then promoting the party that is the modern inheritor of the Nazi party.
After spending yesterday visiting Dachau and saying he was "really moved" by his time there, today JD Vance went to Munich to say that German political parties need to break the firewall against the far-right, Holocaust-minimizing AfD and start working with it: www.zeit.de/politik/ausl...
US-Vizepräsident: J. D. Vance fordert Zusammenarbeit deutscher Parteien mit der AfD
Bei der Münchner Sicherheitskonferenz will US-Vizepräsident Vance mehr Kooperation mit Parteien wie der AfD fordern. Die Bundesregierung weist seinen Vorstoß ab.

Marbury v Madison is a seminal case from 1803 that holds that the federal courts must determine the constitutionality of the actions of the other two branches of government. Hope that helps, Stephen.
