"The fact that [Pete Hegseth] has this ability, as a former television reporter, to kind of deliver the message to the president in a way the president not only understands, but that resonates with him, that has kept him in his job," said Vivian Salama.

"I think the best way to make sense of it is to recognize that Iran and America have different definitions of 'winning' and what 'losing' is," said Gillian Tett.

"[Trump’s] arguments about Greenland have been farcical I think for a long time, and people have understood them as farcical until such point as they can’t afford to," said Stephen Hayes. "Europeans and our allies and Canadians, they can’t afford to have the seriously/literally debate."

"Nineteen minutes long, that address was from the White House. It really was basically a 19-minute-long Truth Social post instead of a meaningful strategy for why [Trump has] taken such a consequential decision that has plunged the global economy into turmoil," said @sbg1.bsky.social.

President Donald Trump’s crackdown on immigration, and protests against the actions of federal agents, put both the city of Minneapolis and the state of Minnesota in the national spotlight.

"What [President Trump is] interested in at any given moment is 'am I winning?' and 'is this a victory?'" said @anneapplebaum.bsky.social.

What would be the consequences of a semipermanent hostility between Canada and the U.S.? "They’re massive trading partners with each other, so it would hurt the Canadians more because they’re more dependent on us than we are on them, but it would hurt us as well," said Idrees Kahloon.

"As I was listening to the protests from European leaders this week, ... they were saying this could be the effective end of NATO, as if that might be a deterrent to Donald Trump. I don't think that that will necessarily stop him because I think that may be part of what he wants," said Stephen Hayes

Why did the framers of the Constitution think it was important to devolve election supervision to local authority? "In part to prevent exactly this, ... from a president or some sort of ruler to try to rig the system. The authorities should be in the states," said @jonlemire.bsky.social.

"I saw a tracker online who said that they’ve achieved or are in progress about 50% of the things that are in Project 2025," said @peterbakernyt.bsky.social. "One of the things that they’ve been very successful at, and I would expect to see more of [in 2026], is their war on DEI."

The decision to exclude Eoghan Ó Ceannabháin from the Dublin Central debates just doesn’t make sense. In Galway West, 9 candidates are going head to head in debates, while in Dublin Central only 8 are being given a chance to put forward their perspective.

@vanhollen.senate.gov asked a simple question: Will people convicted of assaulting Capitol Police officers be barred from receiving taxpayer money from Trump’s $1.8 billion political slush fund? Trump’s Acting AG Todd Blanche refused to say. WATCH:
