Speaking of the colossal failure of corporate media: as Dan Froomkin says,

"You would have no idea just how insane these so-called 'reciprocal' tariffs are from the main stories in your favorite national newspapers and mainstream-media organizations.

Press Watch · Mainstream media falls for Trump’s insane ‘reciprocal’ tariff talkBy Dan Froomkin
Continued thread

Then there's "the Justice Department under Attorney General Merrick Garland" and "the cowardice and complicity of the Supreme Court and its chief justice, John Roberts."

Not millions of Americans who saw what would happen and did all we could to prevent it: but our corporate leaders, bankers, media moguls, justice system, and the Supreme Court….

They should not be given a pass. They have royally failed us.

Who bears primary responsibility for ushering in "autocratic joyride" that is now leaving "a wake of unmitigated destruction for the American people," Elliot Kirschner asks? Certainly not the millions of Americans who knew this was going to happen and voted to prevent it.

But "far too many in the business community," "bankers," and "far too many in the press" bear primary responsibility for what's happening.

Kirill Dmitriev: Putin’s Messenger Arrives In Washington.

Kirill Dmitriev, the Kremlin’s most trusted financial operator and messenger, has quietly arrived in Washington. Not in disgrace. But with a special temporary sanctions waiver, personally approved by Trump, so he could waltz into the White House under the guise of "ceasefire talks.

Remember Putin is a wanted war criminal for Genocide of Ukrainians. Putin orders mass murder of Ukrainians. Putin has kidnapped 700,000 Ukrainian Children. Putin has been fighting a hybrid war against western Democracies. Putin's best friend and money man shouldn't be welcomed into the White House, but he was.

Unmasking Russia · Kirill Dmitriev: Putin’s Messenger Arrives In WashingtonBy Olga Lautman

This is the reality when Russia feels no accountability for its actions, breaks its promises, and assumes it will face no consequences for its war crimes.

Today Russia killed at least four people in its missile attack on Kryvyi Rih. Putin doesn't want peace.

Russia will not abandon its terror on its own – it must be forced into peace. And this can only be achieved through joint efforts, both from the U.S., European partners and other countries of the world.

Thanks to everyone who emailed their anger at Rachel Gilmore getting cancelled by CTV - the Bell ombuds email crashed, CTV news feedback inundated, and now broadcasting standards saying it can no longer take complaints due to being overwhelmed - action works folks!!!!
