Hillary Clinton: “The Republican Party is no longer a political party, it is a cult devoted to Trump and Trump’s power. The Republican Party needs a total transformation. If we’re gonna have a healthy government that actually gets things done and delivers for people, the Republican Party has to purge itself of everybody that lost both their conscience and their backbone over the last ten years and that’s most of them”

Overnight, Russia attacked Ukraine with "humanitarian" ballistic missiles, "humanitarian" cluster munitions, and "humanitarian" drones.
In Kyiv, an "Epicentr" store in Pochaina was destroyed by the overnight strikes.
Trump: We were in the midst of negotiating and a lot of stupid people said why aren’t you putting Russian sanctions—
Collins: But you said you didn’t give anything for his release
Trump: If I didn’t do that, you wouldn’t have him coming back.
Collins: So you did give something.
Trump: You don’t know anything. You’re fake news CNN.
Collins: You’re saying you lifted the sanctions in exchange for his release?
Trump: You don’t know what you’re talking about. You’re a low IQ person. You’re a dummy.

Vladimir Putin’s secluded residence near Russia’s Lake Valdai is surrounded by fences, security forces, and air defenses. Just kilometers away, locals face restricted access to the lake and surrounding forests, while families bear the cost of Russia’s war against Ukraine.

Ukraine has survived this war not simply because of decisions made in presidential offices or Western capitals. It has survived because millions of Ukrainians have demonstrated extraordinary resilience, because soldiers continue to defend the country, and because civil society has mobilized to sustain the state and its defense.

Churchill could have shortened WW2 by years if he had just “done a deal” with Hitler. George Washington could have done a deal to end the American Revolution. Zelenskyy is in good company.

US Secretary of State Marco Rubio says decisions about Ukraine’s access to Starlink are in the hands of SpaceX and CEO Elon Musk, not the White House, in response to claims it was involved in restricting Kyiv’s access to satellite internet services. aje.news/1t3lln

How does our morning begin?
Of course, with getting Seva ready for school. But before leaving the house, there’s one more essential part of our morning routine - checking whether there’s an air raid alert.
If there is one, Seva waits until it’s over before heading to school. Today, the children missed their first lesson.
Instead of simply packing a schoolbag, having breakfast, and leaving the house on time, we also have to check whether it’s even safe to leave.

James Talarico: “I would ask [Ken Paxton] how he increased his net worth by $27M as a public employee. I would ask him how he owns 15 homes on a government salary. I would ask him why he was impeached by his own party and reported to the FBI by his own staff. And I would ask him why he’s taking bribes from wealthy donors while he blocks our overtime pay and guts our healthcare”

The GOP wants you to think of Elon Musk as some sort of victim who just wants to give us flying cars, but the truth tells a very different story. He fired the people who were investigating him and his companies through DOGE and now it’s reported by the WSJ that he gave the order to degrade the speed on Ukraine’s Starlink. That deserves investigation and Democrats should absolutely promise that and deliver.

Three waves of ballistic missiles have been launched at Kyiv by Russian “humanitarians” since yesterday evening. They used 21 missiles. Unfortunately, numerous sites across the city have been hit and damaged: ordinary residential buildings, energy facilities, infrastructure at one of the railway stations and the metro, shopping malls, and businesses. Even a monastery is among the damaged sites. Our emergency services are working at all the affected locations. Twelve of our regions came under Russian attack overnight. In Kyiv and across the regions, 34 people were injured, including five children. As of now, two people have been confirmed killed. My condolences to their families and loved ones.
Almost immediately after another round of talks, Russia launched a pointed attack. This means there has been no real change in its attitude toward everything that is happening. It is important to keep trying to find the right solutions to end this war. But when Russia responds to negotiations with ballistic missiles, real pressure on Russia is needed to bring about different steps – steps toward ending the killing. Stronger air defenses and the rapid delivery of missiles, the ability to destroy ballistic missile launchers, sanctions over the war – all of this must be in place. I am grateful to everyone who sees the situation for what it is and acknowledges the reality. The aggressor deserves to be treated accordingly. Ukraine deserves support. People's lives deserve protection. Thank you to everyone who stands with Ukraine!

Brendan Carr, chairman of the Federal Communications Commission, wrote on social media that broadcasters need to avoid “amplifying or airing” fake election polls.
Anna M. Gomez, the lone Democrat on the commission, disagreed with Carr’s assertion. wapo.st/4shjwtq
OSSOFF: There's every reason to believe that our foreign policy with respect to Russia and Ukraine is being influenced by deal making Jared Kushner and Steve Witkoff are undertaking in their negotiations with Putin that will directly benefit the first family's cronies.
It is like a kaleidoscopic spectacle of corruption unlike anything we've ever seen in the history of our republic.
