Important point: having treated Russia as THE successor state to the USSR, the West often goes on to treat Soviet contribution to victory over Nazi Germany as exclusively Russian. It wasn't, and Ukraine & Belarus lost far more people, esp proportionate to population, than Russia.

NEW: Trump charged with seven counts, including — willful retention of national defense information, obstruction of justice, conspiracy, false statements and concealment under title 18 of the US criminal code, per person familiar. theguardian.com/us-news/2023/j…

To the media: stop calling it "willful retention of documents" and start calling it what it actually is: espionage. You do no one a service by trying to avoid the word. Donald Trump committed espionage and everyone should know that he did. Full stop.

Your periodic reminder that this photo was taken three weeks after Trump nearly got McCarthy killed by his mob during the coup attempt.

TRUMP LEAKS LIKELY KILLED MANY AGENTS The CIA started losing assets and spies around the world as soon as Trump bitterly left the White House with hundreds of highly classified national security documents. Coincidence? Do the math. Inge Stark #careless thehill.com/policy/nationa…

The average billionaire in America pays 8% in federal taxes. As a former teacher, me and my colleagues paid at least 20%. Enough is enough. It’s time to implement a minimum tax for billionaires.

Putin faced 2 bad choices last week -- escalate & crush with force traitors, or de-escalate and negotiate with traitors. He chose the latter. We should learn from that choice: Lessons from the Mutiny in Russia for the War in Ukraine. open.substack.com/pub/michaelmcf…

Remember how Jared Kushner and Ivanka Trump made up to $640 million on the side while working in the White House? Why aren't more people talking about that? citizensforethics.org/reports-invest…

You know what really needs an investigation? The Chinese trademarks Ivanka Trump got in the White House.

I need someone to explain to me why Al Franken had to resign, but Matt Gaetz is still in Congress. Explain it to me like I’m in kindergarten.

I wonder if Jack Tapper and Dana Bash realize how much--through their silence and unwillingness to correct lie after lie spewed by a narcissistic felon on stage--they have just become the faces of the COLLAPSE of American media.

We must stop him.

9/ In the short *and* medium term, there’ll be misinformation, especially from major media, that this was a grassroots campaign to ditch President Biden. It wasn’t. It was coordinated—this is fact—by party elites, party mega-donors, and corporate major media. Again, that is fact.

11/ Though it’s been underreported—in fact hardly reported at all—by corporate media, 1 in 4 Republicans (Republicans!) want Donald Trump to drop out of the presidential race immediately. Instead, corporate media has universally portrayed the Republican Party as fervently united.
