Donald Trump
Coup attempt
Donald Trump and his supporters should just move to Russia. It offers the kind of government they like[1] with the values they embrace.[2]

Ukraine
Russia’s participation in negotiations to end its invasion is a farce[3] and its claims of withdrawal[4] are a lie.[5] Necessarily, this will temper any sense of relief that Kremlin Spokesman Dmitry Peskov has claimed “that ‘no one is thinking about’ using nuclear weapons.”[6]
It is, if anything, a bit surprising that Russia has not already used tactical (“battlefield”) nuclear weapons in its invasion of Ukraine:
“Russian statements, when combined with military exercises that seemed to simulate the use of nuclear weapons against NATO members, led many to believe that Russia might threaten to use its nonstrategic nuclear weapons to coerce or intimidate its neighbors,” the [Congressional Research Service] report stated.[7]
It appears that Russia’s surprisingly poor performance with conventional forces,[8] leading already to an increased reliance on atrocities and threatened atrocities against civilians,[9] could reflect a emphasis on tactical nuclear weapons stemming from “the late 1990s, [when Russia] fac[ed] economic problems that left their traditional army in tatters and the humiliating military stalemate with separatist leaders in Chechnya.”[10]
It is possible that the only thing holding Vladimir Putin back is a “nuclear taboo” to which the U.S. has threatened a strategic response:[11]
In 2017, then-Air Force Gen. John E. Hyten took exception to the idea that tactical nuclear weapons were really anything different than a strategic nuclear weapon. Hyten, who was at that point overseeing U.S. nuclear weapons as the chief of U.S. Strategic Command, described how the United States could respond if another country used them.
“It’s not a tactical effect, and if somebody employs what is a nonstrategic or tactical nuclear weapon, the United States will respond strategically, not tactically, because they have now crossed a line, a line that has not been crossed since 1945,” Hyten said.[12]
