Trump said yesterday that there'd been regime change in Iran. For the avoidance of doubt, there hasn't been.

Stop trying to change Putin’s mind. Change his capabilities instead. Arm Ukraine with more and better weapons, and impose tougher sanctions on Russian individuals and companies to cut off the money funding this war.

Trump says Iran wants to negotiate, but he’s also called on Iranians to rise up and “take over” their government. Which is it? You can’t negotiate with the same regime you’re trying to replace — that’s absurd.

Three decades ago, democracy looked unstoppable. Today, Russia and China are rewriting the rules. My latest book, Autocrats vs. Democrats: China, Russia, America and the New Global Disorder lays out how we got here—and how the U.S. should respond. www.amazon.com/Autocrats-vs...

The immense determination of Ukrainian warriors & civilians has prevented Putin from achieving any of his initial war aims: Tried to take all Ukraine—failed. Tried to overthrow Zelenskyy—failed. Tried to stop NATO expansion—failed. Putin is losing this war. I just hope it ends soon.

Right now, the conversation isn’t about nuclear programs, or free and fair elections in Iran. It's about reopening a body of water that was open before this war started. Chalk that up as a win for Tehran.

Trump’s comments last night about “Obama’s Iran deal” were simply wrong. It wasn’t perfect, but it capped uranium enrichment at 3.67%. Since Trump scrapped it, Iran has enriched to 60%—much closer to weapons-grade. And that stockpile still hasn’t been eliminated.

This week Trump urged Republicans to “nationalize” elections. It may be one of the most anti-democratic ideas he’s floated and follows a well-worn authoritarian playbook, slowly chipping away at free & fair elections. Our democratic institutions are strong—but this is deeply disturbing

Europe pushed back on Greenland, but Americans did too. The public, the markets, even some GOP senators spoke up. And Trump backed down. We don't live in a monarchy, we don't live in a dictatorship, and Trump won't be in power forever. Clip from my conversation on The Court of History podcast

Today, the last major US-Russia nuclear arms control treaty expires. It allowed inspectors on both sides to examine each other’s systems, reducing uncertainty. Without facts, worst-case thinking takes over—and that’s dangerous for nuclear powers.

The drives from Karl-Anthony Towns have been key for New York early in this one. Cleveland hasn't been afraid to switch or change the matchup. Has Strus here and looks to go 1v1. Good job from Alvarado to clear the wing and Hart to slide to the right block.

There are some things in our agenda packets that never get mentioned during the meeting, but are full of useful information. Transportation infrastructure updates are one of them!

This quote from a Trump cabinet member sums up the administration in a nutshell: “Just because it looks like we’re going in the wrong direction doesn’t mean that’s the direction we’re going.” Yes—it really does. 🤦🏿‍♂️
