“This step could be the start of a big war on the European continent. The whole world is talking about what could happen any day now,” says Zelensky. “Any provocation. Any flare-up – one that could burn everything.”

Don’t forget: AFTER he lost election, Trump unilaterally withdrew from the Open Skies Treaty, giving Putin cover to withdraw too. Ukraine begged us not to, because it would rob the west of the best surveillance should Putin invade. Now we dont have it. Another gift from Trump.

It’s almost 4 a.m. in Moscow, but lots of Russians are already posting about Zelensky’s moving speech. “The problem is there’s no one to respond to him,” one writes. “Most Russians are in no condition right now to decide, say or think anything.” https://t.co/xzQwk6hecX

That feeling of powerlessness is what we sensed in reporting this story about the sudden realization in Moscow that war could be coming: fear and resignation that things will only get much worse. https://t.co/hROCNijaiG

He just says that to give Steve Bannon a hard-on.

That’s only the PA strand on the Scranton-DC trek. The main thread is leaving CA about now, won’t fizzle until someplace like Winslow AZ.
Zelensky’s live address to the Russian people is as amazing as it is heartbreaking

The Belarusians think they’re independent?? Really? Their president is a Putin toady who has been in office for decades and, like Putin, has no interest in fair elections.

If Ukraine falls, will Alaska be next?
I don’t think so. Putin is not going to physically attack the United States.

I don’t think so. Putin is not going to physically attack the United States.
But wait…Putin may change many minds with an enlightening history lesson or two.

The weirdest part of Paxton’s letter is the constitutionalism. Is there a “constitutional right to procreate”? Is it a substantive due process right? Can you cite some cases for me, Ken?
