Trump bears the bulk of the blame for the unprecedented global economic crisis now unfolding. But let’s not ignore the role played by the hideously bad judgment of the business and financial leaders who supported Trump and didn’t realize this was an inevitable outcome.

Chris Hayes: Some Democrats are convinced they just need to keep their heads down and hope they can run on egg prices in two years. Not only is that strategy morally wrong in my view, but it is strategically wrong.

Vladimir Putin has for years unsuccessfully tried to oust Ukrainian President Zelenskyy.

Now, those efforts are being entertained by senior officials in Ukraine’s single most important backer, the United States.
Putin has tried to oust Zelenskyy for years. Now, U.S. pressure might do the job.
Some comments by formerly staunch Zelenskyy supporters play into the hands of Russia, and aid Moscow’s yearslong bid to oust the pro-Western leader, critics warn.

President Trump has executed a realignment of American foreign policy:

• He said Ukraine — not Russia — started the war between the two countries.

• He called President Zelenskyy — not Vladimir Putin — a dictator.

• And the Trump’s administration is standing down on anti-Kremlin policies.
Trump turns toward Russia, breaking with decades of U.S. policy
The extraordinary pivot is upending decades of hawkish foreign policy, raising questions about the future of post-World War II global security project.

Democrats must make clear that, of course, we believe in changing government for the better - and show how different that is from Trump's destruction of government's capacity to protect workers, consumers, and families.

Leadership is doubling down, but GOP members are getting nervous about the budget’s extreme unpopularity.

You can call your Representative now at 202-224-3121.
Looks like tomorrow will bring votes on a Republican plan to fund tax cuts for the rich by slashing Medicaid.

So this is a great time to contact your Member of Congress.

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.

The mistake is to think Zelensky could have salvaged this. Trump admin just doesn’t want to support Ukraine. Period. There was also never going to be a peace agreement. That’s been clear but everyone has been pretending otherwise. There can be no confusion now.
