Study for knowledge & reflect for understanding. As these increase so may tolerance, compassion & growth as a force for good.

Dear 🇪🇺 leaders,

saying "hell no" to the US is a strong, united signal that I and others expect from you. Standing with Ukraine is the heroic thing we all want to see.
Cowering before the US deadline and rushing to appease the Kremlin on behalf of the US is cowardly and will not be forgiven.

Cheers

100% the time for diplomacy has gone, we can’t ignore the writing on the wall. We must commit to saving Ukraine and in my opinion we need to deploy our military forces and push them out. It’s a tough nettle to grasp but it needs to be done.

I also like to add, I hope leaders understand people are not going to forgive you if you abandon Ukraine. You don't have that option anymore doing the bare minimum, endless meetings and strongly worded statements. Now it's time to cut the BS and start doing something real and concrete.

We also need to star thinking about scenario where we (Europe) are on our own. U.S. is not going to save us. It's something we have postponed, but that time is now.

Jesus Christ, public opinion is not some static thing that has to be “respected” by politicians.

Politicians should work to shape it, to make the case for their priorities and positions, to win over voters to *their* ideas not convince voters that they agree with them.
This exchange drives me nuts. Neither the interviewer nor Bazelon acknowledges that 1) abortion rights are really popular! and 2) what ICE is doing is hugely unpopular!

Very sensitive intelligence methods like murdering the shit out of shipwrecked mariners.
House Intel Chair Rick Crawford on why he doesn't want video of the second Sept 2 boat strike released: "What the trained eye can detect from these videos may reveal sources and methods that would imperil troops." (But releasing video of the first strike didn't?)

Ossoff: "She got her new insurance quote & it's $700 more per month than what she's paying now. She's diabetic. She had surgery a few months ago for something else. She told me she cried again bc she realized she's gonna have to cancel her insurance. She believes she might die bc of a policy choice"

Gallego: "This administration, since they started striking these boats illegally, has been very happy to show their snuff films . Now suddenly they're willing to show the first hit but not the second. Why? ... they're afraid the public is going to see the military killed 2 men that had surrendered."

Thinking of that time when my dad, himself a doctor, was thrown by a horse on a trail ride. Punctured his spleen, internal bleeding, got him to an ER just in time. He lived another 20 years. With two hours delay, probably wouldn't have.

We rushed to *nearest* ER. Not comparison-shop for ER prices.
Roger Marshall: "We want patients to become consumers again. We want patients to see what the actual prices are. We believe that if we would add the price tags to this bill, that it would save the country a trillion dollars a year."

I hope people understand that if Trump gets his way America will soon be part of the global axis of evil if we aren't already. You see it in the Caribbean, you see it in Ukraine, and you see it with Trump trying to buddy up to Xi. We are a malevolent force.

I know this has wended its way out of cultural discourse entirely but please remember that there'll come a time when things are settled enough again that it can be generally appreciated how deranged and creepy it was that America voted to make its leader a man who's literally—not figuratively—orange

Trump’s obsession with me is beyond weird. He needs serious help.

Since he has no economic policies to tout, he’s resorting to regurgitating bigoted lies instead.

He continues to be a national embarrassment.
Trump: "Ilhan Omar, whatever the hell her name is. With her little turban. I love her. She comes in, does nothing but bitch ... we ought to get her the hell out ... she's here illegally."

The crowd in Pennsylvania then starts chanting "send her back!"

something you have to understand about Trump & his weird comments about the economy is that the dude hasn't paid for anything like a normal person in decades - never pumps gas, never buys groceries - so he's completely & utterly out of touch with what life is like for most of us

That’s his MO and it gets him off the hook every time. And no reporter will follow up with, “You’re POTUS, how could you not know? And if you don’t, was someone in your administration hiding it from you?” Just zero follow up, ever.
