Ceding Ukrainian land for peace is just abstract words. It’s not only about reality, even more about philosophy. Putin was talking about Donbas, but then he decided to occupy Kyiv, our capital. His words were about Donbas, but the reality was about Kyiv. He kept saying he was defending Russian-speaking people and then tortured hundreds and thousands to death in Bucha and other places. So that wasn’t about Russian-speaking people.
This is why when Americans asked, “Can you exchange Donbas for security?” I said right there, “Can you tell me what it means? What security? NATO?”
“Not NATO, but similar to NATO.”
“Similar? But you don't want the answer about Donbas to be ‘similar.’ You want a clear answer about Donbas. This is your goal. And this is Putin’s goal, for today. What will you do if we have security guarantees but not NATO?”
They took our nuclear weapons. I'm not a fan of nuclear weapons. I think the world would be a better place without them. But the Russians took our nuclear weapons, didn’t they? They did. Then they stopped our integration into Europe, then prevented us from being in NATO. And in the end they occupied us. This is why it’s an abstract question. Nobody trusts Putin to stop if we leave Donbas. He will pause. Then he will come back in one year, two years, or five years. And who will be guilty?

Governor Waller supports an interest-rate increase in December and would consider a 50 basis point hike if inflation continues to accelerate.

A report from Prime Minister of Ukraine Sergii Koretskyi on the situation in the energy sector, efforts to address the aftermath of Russian strikes, and communication with the European Commission to secure new decisions in support of Ukraine.
First, I am grateful to Ursula von der Leyen and the European Commission team for already beginning to coordinate concrete steps that can help our cities and communities right now amid Russian terror. It is important to provide people with as many opportunities as possible to get through this winter.
Second, the Prime Minister, together with Minister of Internal Affairs Ivan Vyhivskyi and Secretary of the National Security and Defense Council Ihor Klymenko, is working on the necessary logistical alternatives for Kyiv and designated regional centers. I am grateful to the National Police of Ukraine, the State Emergency Service of Ukraine, and all the agencies involved for implementing the decisions made to support cities and communities.
Third, we are preparing for bilateral formats with partners in Europe and engagement with international financial institutions over the coming weeks. There will be additional steps to strengthen our country. Glory to Ukraine!

🚨 A railway bridge collapsed in Russia’s Arkhangelsk region — and apparently managed to do it all by itself, without any outside help
Several freight train cars derailed after a section of the bridge over the Viled River collapsed between Cheryomukha and Viled. Rail traffic on the route has been suspended, with eight passenger trains delayed.
According to Arkhangelsk Governor Alexander Tsybulsky, the incident occurred at around 5:10 a.m.
Preliminary reports indicate no injuries. The cause of the collapse remains unknown.
Russia’s Defense Ministry claims its air defenses shot down 155 Ukrainian drones across nine regions overnight — but Arkhangelsk was not among them.
Looks like Ukrainian drones aren't even needed here — things in Russia are falling apart perfectly well on their own.
The deadline for the House floor vote is this Wednesday, Nov 11, Veterans Day. Assuming that the Speaker of the House rules that Massie’s resolution is privileged, the House could vote on the resolution itself, or on a motion to table it or refer it to committee.

The Pentagon’s F-35 office cannot accurately track the $31 billion of F-35 parts, cannot account for parts reported missing and has not sufficiently trained staff members to oversee the status of the parts. stripes.com/theaters/us/2026…

Just filed a discharge petition with @RepLiccardo to force a vote and protect Afghan allies in the U.S.
Many Afghans put their lives on the line to protect American servicemembers like me.
It’s a moral & national security imperative that we keep our promise to them.

John Lewis, 2018: We are going forward. When the state of Georgia becomes blue, along with the state of Texas, they will not be able to hold us down. It’s going to happen.

Trump is about to get even weirder and, sadly, more dangerous.
From our last taping before the midterms, here's my prediction for @karaswisher about how he'll handle defeat.
(He's already doing the "blame everyone else" part.)
@KaraSwisher asked me how Trump will deal with defeat if Democrats win big next week.
My expectation: He'll double down on risk. #HighStakes

So Rubio himself is worried about Jensen’s romantic relationship with the Chinese spy and Megaspeed executive, meaning the intel was validated at the highest levels of government. But still, Commerce has done nothing to limit AI chip shipments to Megaspeed or Southeast Asia. Why?
NEW: Nat Sec Adviser Marco Rubio oversaw drafting of a highly classified memo this spring that the intel community assessed a woman who had established a close relationship w Jensen Huang was working for China's Ministry of State Security nytimes.com/2026/11/08/us/po…
