Trump's comments about the war in Ukraine sounded straight from a Russian propaganda playbook.
It's disgusting.
The Ukrainian people did not start this war. Vladimir Putin did.
The staggering suffering and destruction they have endured is all because of Vladimir Putin.

Timothy Snyder has been warning us about this very possibility for years. Are you ready to listen?
Nothing could please America’s enemies more than the ongoing destruction of the federal government.
This is a hostile takeover of the federal government by a private citizen of unlimited means with no restrictions and no transparency. Welcome to the Deep State www.reuters.com/world/us/mus...

A radical charismatic Christian movement has seeped into Trump world, Stephanie McCrummen reports. It has little use for pluralism, individual rights, or democracy. And now, with Trump returning to the White House, its war on the secular state begins:
The Army of God Comes Out of the Shadows
Tens of millions of American Christians are embracing a charismatic movement known as the New Apostolic Reformation, which seeks to destroy the secular state.

“These fires were unstoppable,” every single firefight has said. The dry conditions, the 100 mph winds that grounded ALL air support the first 27 hrs, made these fires “unstoppable.” Choose to accept that hard truth or choose to be like Trump & Elon Musk and just get political & blame someone.
