Ukrainian leaders have delayed signing a critical minerals cooperation agreement with the United States, with an eye toward letting Mr. #Trump claim credit after taking office. (Rather than President #Biden.)

If you are wondering why Trudeau flew down to see Trump
It's because Trump is not welcome in Canada!
@randahl La montée de Trump rappelle la "Résistible Ascension d'Arturo Ui" de Brecht. Alors qu'il cherche à contrôler le Congrès, il manipule les institutions pour asseoir son pouvoir. Les répercussions sur la démocratie sont alarmantes : une oligarchie se dessine, menaçant les droits des minorités. Ne laissons pas l'histoire se répéter ! #Trump #Démocratie #Oligarchie #Brecht #ArturoUi #PolitiqueUSA

Analysis: "Donald Trump Will Need a Police State to Implement His Agenda"
"It’s going to get very ugly."
Before Trump left office after his first term, he issued an executive order to remove employment protections from civil servants "deemed disloyal to the president."
A new employment category, Schedule F, would apply to tens of thousands of federal workers, which permitted them "to be fired without cause."

2 Trump's plan to purge so-called "woke" generals
Presidents have unilateral authority to fire general officers.
As commander-in-chief, Trump could remove generals at will via "loss of confidence".
A “warrior board” of former generals, et al. would select the generals to be "retired"...
either by an explicit call to resign or by removing the general's assignment.
Those who lose assignments typically retire rather than lose rank.

Analysis: "Free speech crises loom with crackdown on Israel criticism"
The incoming Trump team appears poised to take a hardline, & Congress isn't far behind. And it's not just on college campuses.

The decision makers are the donors....

This is an odd move business wise, but it sadly makes perfect political sense. I do not blame #Ukraine for doing this, as their survival hangs in the balance.

Liberals refuse to fight fascists.
“ABC #News had a very strong case on the merits (‘we just used the same word the presiding judge used’)
They have the in-house lawyers and deep pockets to fight it.
They folded anyway.
They didn’t need to announce the settlement sum. But apparently they wanted everyone to see their capitulation.”

A judge had previously ruled that it was rape as the word is commonly used. Seems that ABC folded a winning hand in an act of anticipatory compliance.
