Trump: “I'm a very strong person for free speech. At the same time…The newscasts are against me. The stories are — they said 97% bad…They'll take a great story, and they'll make it bad. See, I think that's really illegal personally.”

If you have a Christmas Amazon gift card burning a hole in your pocket, might I recommend “Ronald Reagan: His Life and Legend”.... At 880 pages, the book looks intimidating. But Boot is a skillful writer and I flew through the book in a couple of weeks.

Just finished the @MaxBoot biography of Reagan; it's superb. No wonder it's making the lists of best books of '24. Much recommended.

This is another argument for even stricter sanctions on the Russian economy and even more support for Ukraine. Only by making Russia pay a high price for its violations of international law can the West dissuade Putin from further aggression.
