Crucially important thread.

.@Dahlialithwick is the best. Always a must-read.

Excellent thread.

Important thread. If you get cable, your money likely supports Fox. This needs to change.

Ah, that Memoir is brilliant. Credited with starting the realist movement in US literature. I’ve never quite understood how people could possibly see Grant as dumb. He was kind of the whole package intellectually.

Yes. I am shocked at how little attention this has gotten. See the Senate Report, the Mueller Report, and @jimrutenberg’s terrific piece on this. The deal was for the US to stand aside while Putin took Ukraine, and when Trump lost in 2020, Putin tried to take it fast, militarily.

Must watch. I mean it.

Vitally important thread. It sometimes appears to me that national lawmakers are so isolated from what’s happening on the ground they don’t really understand what they are creating. What this thread lays out is why historians’ hair is on fire.
