#Putin demanded #Ukraine surrender key #territory in call with #Trump
The demand from Putin would significantly disadvantage Ukraine & could be an obstacle to peace, officials said.
Putin in a phone call this week with #TACO demanded that Kyiv surrender full control of #Donetsk, a strategically vital region in eastern Ukraine, as a condition for ending the war, said two senior officials familiar with the conversation.

After brashly declaring he wanted to #testify in his #criminal trial, it appears increasingly unlikely that #Trump will do so, as the #jury seems poised to hear #ClosingArguments next week.
Defendants rarely testify, because their #lawyers advise them that the risks of doing so, particularly when it comes to being questioned by prosecutors #UnderOath, are simply too great.

Attorney for woman shot by #BorderPatrol claims officer said 'Do something bitch' before shooting
Body-camera video appears to contradict the government’s claim that Marimar Martinez, 30, drove toward officers before one of them opened fire at her late Saturday morning in Brighton Park, her attorney claimed. A judge ordered Martinez & a co-defendant released pending trial.

Trump’s DHS appointees have dismantled civil rights guardrails, protected agents’ anonymity and encouraged them to wear masks, threatened groups that stood in their way and overwhelmed challenges to their arrests.

#NationalGuard members from #Texas are illegally in #Illinois in Trump's latest move to send troops to cities
Guard members from Texas were at an Army training center in Illinois on Tuesday, the most visible sign yet of the #Trump admin’s plan to ignore the #law & send #troops to the #Chicago area despite a lawsuit & vigorous opposition from #city & #state elected leaders.

#Trump refuses to say whether he will invoke #InsurrectionAct
Asked whether he plans to invoke the Insurrection Act, Trump declined to say whether or not he would but says that it has been invoked before.
“Well, it’s been invoked before. As you know, if you look at Chicago, #Chicago is a great city where there’s a lot of crime, & if the governor can’t do the job, we’ll do the job,” he said

At a normal congressional #oversight hearing, the person testifying at least answers a decent number of the questions asked by members of #Congress from the opposing party. Not #Trump’s AG #PamBondi.
Testifying before the #Senate #Judiciary Cmte yesterday, Bondi spent her time yelling over Democratic senators, leveling personal attacks at them, & refusing to provide basic factual information.

He helped set it all in motion, and now Curtis Yarvin says he's contemplating fleeing the horror show unfolding in the US — because he thinks the horrors are not quick and thorough enough, so the Trump "revolution" will fail and people like him may be targeted when it falls apart.
Live by the logic of harming others and you must always live in fear of what will happen when the situation reverses itself and those others rise.

#TrumpTrial 🧵 Tues 21 May 2024
Testimony may conclude today in Trump’s #criminal NY #ElectionInterference trial, after 5 weeks & 22 witnesses.
Yesterday the jury was introduced to #RobertCostello, a #Giuliani associate & #lawyer who acted as a “back-channel” for #MichaelCohen to #Trump in the summer of 2018.
Yesterday, Costello behaved so atrociously on the witness stand that Juan Merchan cleared the courtroom to admonish him & the defense attorneys. Costello is due back on the stand
“Arraignments of #Giuliani & 10 other allies of #Trump were underway on Tues in #Arizona criminal case that charges them with trying to keep Trump in power after he lost pres election.
A total of 50 people — incl Trump — now face charges related to election interference in four states. A number of Trump allies have already pleaded guilty or reached cooperation agreements in cases in Georgia and Michigan.”
Special counsel #JackSmith appears to have suspected additional efforts by #Trump to obstruct the government's investigation of his handling of classified #documents, a newly unsealed court filing revealed Tuesday. #legal #TrumpIndictment
Many of us have been sounding the alarm on this for years.
Welp.

4 months after the #FBI raided #MarALago, Trump’s attys discovered 4 docs marked #classified in his personal bedroom.
That revelation was among several cited by US District Judge Beryl Howell in a newly unsealed 2023 opinion that found prosecutors had presented compelling #evidence that #Trump #knowingly stashed #NationalSecurity docs in his home & then tried to conceal them when the #DOJ tried to retrieve them.
