The words of Frederick Douglass on Abraham Lincoln’s genius in pulling a recalcitrant nation from the bondage of slavery are still deeply moving almost 150 years later.

WWII ended because of Hiroshima and Nagasaki. It ended in Europe because Allied and Soviet troops crushed Nazi Germany from the west and east. There were no negotiations. There was total victory. The requirements here are far less dramatic. The US must push Putin to make peace.
JD Vance: "This is how wars ultimately get settled. If you go back to World War 2, if you go back to every major conflict in human history, they all end with some kind of negotiation."

Agreed. Hopeful news:. “The starting point of the proposal is the definition of a collective security provision, which would allow Ukraine to count on the support of all its partners, including the US, ready to take measures in the event of a new attack.” ~Italian PM Meloni.
If you are a supporter of Ukraine, the presence of Italian PM Giorgia Meloni is welcome news. She is embraced by the right (spoke at CPAC this year, was championed by Bannon) and is also strongly supportive of Ukrainian sovereignty. A powerful voice in the room.
