„[...] Pootin’s behavior is now a liability for @realDonaldTrump, who painted himself into a corner with laughable claims that he could end the war before he even took office, or on day one.
2).
The Russian [dictator] played along with Trump, as he has for years, because it is in Russia’s interest to have an anti-American, anti-democratic force of chaos in the Oval Office, but none of that meant that Putin was going to stop the war.”

„What is the »TACO trade« on Wall Street?

There’s a new trade on Wall Street: the »TACO trade«, standing for »Trump Always Chickens Out«.
@RonFilipkowski 2).
The term was coined by Robert Armstrong, a writer for the @FT [1], and is intended to capture how markets have fallen on Trump’s vow to impose steep tariffs on imports to the U.S. and then jump back up when @realDonaldTrump announces pauses on those tariffs [2].”

„Russian oligarchs use the offshore system to shield their luxury assets. The Trump Administration is ending an effort to find and seize them.
@rhonda_harbison @RonFilipkowski @afentriss 2).
Among all the radical policy shifts carried out during @POTUS @realDonaldTrump's first 100 days, perhaps the most astonishing was his reorientation of America’s posture toward Russia.
@rhonda_harbison @RonFilipkowski @afentriss @POTUS @realDonaldTrump 3).
Support for Ukraine in the ongoing war was long a bipartisan article of faith, but @realDonaldTrump shattered that consensus almost immediately,

@holly__heart @jimstewartson @elonmusk @realDonaldTrump @DOGE 1).
Head of the German Labour Front [1] [2] [3] Robert Ley (1890–1945) had a habit of flying into a blind rage, regardless of the subject of conversation, losing all contact with reality.
@holly__heart @jimstewartson @elonmusk @realDonaldTrump @DOGE 2).
I.a. then, when he tried to prove Hitlerʼs omniscience, or when he announced the imminent conquest of the Moon and all planets [4].

„In April 1945, Ley became enamored with the idea of creating a »death ray« after receiving a letter from an unnamed inventor:
@holly__heart @jimstewartson @elonmusk @realDonaldTrump @DOGE 3)
– »Iʼve studied the documentation; there's no doubt about it. This will be the decisive weapon!« [5].

Despite his failings, Ley retained Führerʼs favour; until the last months of the war he was part of Hitlerʼs inner circle along with Martin Bormann and Joseph Goebbels [5].”

„ @realDonaldTrump initially said it was Qatar that reached out and offered him the luxury jet free of charge.
2).
In fact, it was the Trump administration that first approached Qatar this winter about acquiring the plane through a sale after the pres. made clear to aides that he was upset about delays of two Boeing jets purchased during his first term for $3.9 billion, officials said.
3).
Discussion about the sale later evolved into Qatar agreeing to provide the plane as a gift, a development reported previously by CNN [1] and the NYT [2].”

„Takeaways from @AP report on Ukrainian POWs dying in Russian prisons

More than 200 Ukrainian POWs have died [1] in Russian prisons since Moscow’s full-scale invasion three years ago
2).
Abuse inside Russian prisons likely contributed to many of these deaths, adding to evidence that Russia is systematically brutalizing captured soldiers, according to officials from human rights groups,
3).
the @UN and the Ukrainian government, and a Ukrainian medical examiner who has performed dozens of POW autopsies [2].”

„[...] the truth is that by standard economic measures, the US economy was in excellent shape when Biden turned over the White House keys to @realDonaldTrump, even though most Americans, upset about inflation, told pollsters the economy was in poor shape.
@RonFilipkowski @realDonaldTrump 2).
When Biden left office, the unemployment rate was a low 4.1%, and during Biden’s four years in office, the average jobless rate was lower than for any president since the 1960s.
@RonFilipkowski @realDonaldTrump 3).
Trump has repeatedly railed against the high inflation under Biden, but the fact is that by the time Biden left office, the inflation rate had fallen to just 2.9% – down more than two-thirds from its peak and near the Federal Reserve’s inflation goal.
