Two weeks ago, Trump said Putin now only had two weeks to commit to a ceasefire deal.
The two weeks have passed and as expected, Trump is doing nothing.

Report from the Amsterdam protest: there are a few hundred people here and two uniformed Dutch cops at a respectful distance very casually chatting with each other while they wait for nothing to hurry up and happen.
A lot of people are tourists (American or otherwise) who happened to see the protest because the US consulate is between several museums. They’re all like “hell yeah I’m stopping for this.” Passing bikes ring their bells (some of them might even be in support and not because Americans are standing on the bike path). I don’t know where someone in Amsterdam found an enormous California bear flag on such short notice
And yes, everyone loves Odin, who randomly decided to put his paws up on my shoulders when we were very visible to the crowd

Before discussing politics, I like to administer The Test.
The Test is simple, and should be easy to pass:
"Which is more important:
1. Human Rights
2. Property Rights"
There is one unambiguous, simple, correct answer. If they fail The Test, I don't talk politics with them.

Interesting to see how Putin kept emphasizing that Russia and Iran are very close allies when Russia needed Irans cheap lawnmower drones. And how the same man, now that Iran is under attack, pushes the dear ally under the bus.
Not that I particularly sympathize with the Mullah regime, or Moscow for that part. Just a case in point that traitors are never to be trusted.
I fully appreciate Zelensky's message, but no one should propagate links to these MAGA disinformation sites like "newsmax'. (Noel only uses a screenshot without a link, but adding a warning would have been even better)
Normalizing these illiberal propaganda agents is one reason why America became the dangerous hot mess it now is.
(And yes, I do respect President Zelensky's willingness to demean himself and engage those psychos; it is a long shot attempt to influence the orange moron and his circle.)
