European Union leaders plan to hold emergency talks to agree ways to quickly increase their military budgets after the Trump administration signaled Europe must take care of its own security and also suspended assistance to Ukraine. In just over a month, President Donald Trump has overturned old certainties about U.S. reliability as a security partner, as he embraces Russia and withdraws American support for Ukraine. On Monday, Trump ordered a pause to U.S. military supplies to Ukraine as he sought to press President Volodymyr Zelenskyy to engage in negotiations to end the war with Russia. That brings fresh urgency to an EU summit in Brussels on Thursday.
This quote about Republicans is as true today as when Harry Truman said it in 1948:
“They approve of the American farmer — but they are willing to help him go broke. They stand four-square for the American home — but not for housing. They are strong for labor — but they are stronger for restricting labor's rights. They favor a minimum wage — the smaller the minimum the better. They endorse educational opportunity for all — but they won't spend money for teachers or for schools... (1/2)
Europe adapts, steps up, makes a difference.
At the Munich Security Conference, we made clear we will:
🛡️ Step up defence spending
🇺🇦 Accelerate Ukraine's accession
🤝 Protect our citizens and businesses from trade wars and punitive tariffs
🌍 Stand firm for peace through strength. The world is watching—aggression must have consequences
The geopolitical landscape is changing, and Europe must step up.
We will rise to the moment.

@GottaLaff Trump is such a dummy [edit: or he's preparing us for a militaristic vision of some kind]. Tariffs are a weapon of trade war, employed only in a situation where your opponent relies on your goods but you don't rely on theirs. It's a finishing move, used to force them to accept a deal or to starve them of the goods as a preface to actual war.
The market is global. It is too tightly bound together to be playing with weapons like this. We all rely on each other. Ultimately, all this does is weaken the US, strengthen our competitors, and piss everybody off.
