Hegseth - who just waged probably the largest geopolitical as well as military defeat in US history calling Europe a β€œpaper tiger”. This vile scum needs to study Mussolini to the end. All these white nationalist freaks do.

Thanks Zev for all this info, great as always!

Whoa !!! When is this regime going to be reigned in? Is it going to be reigned in? To me, Trump sure seems like a Russian asset. Americans, overall, don't want to go in this direction, whatsoever.

Folks, everyone needs to take a break, have a good cry, and listen to Michelle Obama give her spectacular speech (tribute) to her husband, President Obama, to democracy, to all of us.

I'm watching it on live on C-span but hopefully it will be available on utube later!.

Zev and Dean you should get a copy of her speech, and play the video.

We all need a break from Trump treachery, to remember what it's like to hear a coherent, inspirational and loving tribute from our former first lady.

Hunh. At the G7 meeting that ended yesterday, Trump appeared to side with the other key nations present in moving towards doing MORE for Ukraine.

Now we see why he likely feigned that supportive redirection.

Because his regime had already sent Hegseth to deliver a further take-down of NATO.

Trump - he will, wherever possible and by any means, give Putin what he wants. Blood brothers.

His was equally inspiring. What a special family and how I admire them and remember the peace & happiness and sailing with my love who left much too young. Missing that time more than ever right now ending with Bruce & the incredible Stevie Wonder & weeping at the most touching 3 hours I’ve had in a long time about 8 yrs. πŸ’–πŸ˜°πŸ‡ΊπŸ‡Έ So glad I recorded this spectacular event & amazing performance imagineable🎢❣️

Agree Betsy! I was listening live cspan, and they had people calling in afterwards to comment- everyone except 1 ass...e, stated how refreshing and wonderful to hear their uplifting message, and a few commented how they cried.
