Zelenskyy's White House re-do
Hello!Rebecca Morin Erin is forecast to steer clearof the mainland United States. I'm thinking of all those who are affected in the Caribbean, such as those in Puerto Rico. Zelenskyy back at the White House Now, it's Ukraine's turn. President Donald Trump on Monday afternoon is meeting Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy to discuss a potential peace deal with Russia, just days after Trump held an hourslong meeting with Russian leader Vladimir Putin in Alaska. Before the Washington meetings, Trump railed at critics of his recent summit with Putin, where he shifted his position on a Ukraine ceasefire to align with that of the Russian president. He also put the onus on Zelenskyy to end Russia's assault on his country and ruled out NATO membership for Ukraine. Follow the latest updates from Trump's meeting with Zelenskyy. Don't forget about Europe: Trump is also set to meet with European leaders, who are rallying behind Zelenskyy and hope to move Trump away from Putin's conditions for a peace deal. European leaders also participated Sunday in an emergency virtual meeting of the Coalition of the Willing, the group of countries that have offered to provide security guarantees to Ukraine after the war. See which European leaders will meet with Trump. Trump-Putin's meeting: The red carpets were rolled out. The two leaders shook hands. A roughly three-hour long meeting was had. And still, no peace deal. Trump and Putin held a roughly three hour long summit in Alaska, where the two did not come to an agreement to end the war in Ukraine. Key takeaways from the Trump-Putin summit. Documents left behind: Watch where you print. Government documents with details about meeting schedules and seating charts, as well as an extravagant menu and reminder to pronounce Putin's name "POO-tihn," were accidentally left in a hotel printer in Alaska amid Trump's meeting with the Russian leader. The documents with State Department markings, reported by NPR, were discovered in the printer in an Anchorage hotel around 9 a.m., hours before Trump's summit with Putin at a nearby military base. See what the documents said. A politics pit stop No more mail-in voting? Trump on Monday said he would sign an executive order to abolish mail-in voting, a move he said Putin supported. Mailing ballots is a popular option for voters to avoid waiting in line at polling places on Election Day. Election-security officials say voting has never been more secure and that the president has no role overseeing elections. But Trump has long railed against mail-in voting as vulnerable to fraud – despite election experts, including those in his first administration, who said mail-in voting is secure. What to know about Trump's plan. Texas standoff over Texas, we're heading home. Democrats in the Texas House of Representatives returned to Austin Monday morning after leaving the state two weeks ago in protest of a Republican plan to re-draw congressional maps to help the party gain seats in 2026. The protest temporarily blocked House Republicans from having a quorum to move the redistricting plan forward and drew national attention to Trump's effort to avoid losing the Republican majority in Congress next year. Republicans adjourned its first special session in the state House on Thursday. Democrats refused to return to the state until after that first special session. California's plans to redraw its state congressional maps also prompted Texas Democrats' return.

Angry Trump Accidentally Blurts Out Unnerving New Plot to Rig Midterms
President Donald Trump raged at Democrats Monday for supposedly cheating in elections in a long and unhinged Truth Social rant—and buried in his tirade is a clear indication of how he hopes to corrupt the 2026 midterm elections at a time when his agenda is nose-diving in polls. In his screed, Trump rehashed his familiar lies about how mail balloting is riddled with fraud, and promised to lead a new 'movement' to abolish it. But then he added this: WE WILL BEGIN THIS EFFORT, WHICH WILL BE STRONGLY OPPOSED BY THE DEMOCRATS BECAUSE THEY CHEAT AT LEVELS NEVER SEEN BEFORE, by signing an EXECUTIVE ORDER to help bring HONESTY to the 2026 Midterm Elections. Remember, the States are merely an 'agent' for the Federal Government in counting and tabulating the votes. Trump already unveiled a similar executive order in March designed to change election rules. It would have barred states from accepting ballots mailed on time but that arrive after Election Day and forced state officials to require documented proof of citizenship for everyone who registers to vote in federal elections. Such changes would have disenfranchised large numbers of voters. Two federal judges blocked it this spring after a coalition of states sued, the plaintiffs successfully arguing that it usurped their authority to set election rules. The administration is appealing. Trump appears prepared to have a second run at such an executive order. But what's critical about Monday's post is he connected this scheme directly to the midterms, inadvertently revealing the real aim behind it. Trump's new rant says he's going to 'lead a movement to get rid of' mail balloting, then later says this 'movement' will begin with his new executive order—a strong indication he will try to ban vote-by-mail by executive order. Voting rights advocates have long expected him to attempt something like this, perhaps by arguing that vote-by-mail is a threat to national security. That's because Trump's argument for his previous executive order failed in the courts after judges affirmed that the Constitution authorizes states to set the 'time, place and manner' of elections. Now Trump might try something new. 'It sounds like he will try to ban all mail-in balloting through executive order, and he's going to have to find some other rationale for such a sweeping presidential action,' said Pooja Chaudhuri, a lawyer at Democracy Defenders Fund, which represented other clients challenging the March executive order. For instance, Trump might argue that 'mail-in ballots are so fraudulent that they undermine the institutions of this country,' Chaudhuri continued, and that 'the president must get involved. This would represent an enormous abuse of power.' There is overwhelming evidence that any fraud in mail balloting is limited to nonexistent. Indeed, it's now beyond obvious that the pretext is the thing to watch. Trump is manufacturing a fake justification for nixing vote-by-mail because he believes (probably wrongly, but never mind that) doing so will help Republicans in the midterms. That he openly linked his announcement to the 2026 elections shows he isn't even bothering to hide the scam any longer. 'If they are going to try to stand for election integrity, it hurts them to point out that this is directly related to the 2026 elections,' said Greta Bedekovics, associate director of democracy at the Center for American Progress. 'It exposes that this is not about election integrity and national security, it's about election rigging.' It's no accident that this comes even as Trump is expanding the use of the National Guard in Washington, D.C., and other cities, based—again—on a manufactured pretext, this time about crime. At bottom, Trump's rant clearly signals his intent to use presidential power in every conceivable way he can to swing the midterm elections against Democrats. This could include ramped-up military maneuvers in Democratic strongholds or in swing areas—whether to intimate voters or to fabricate a crisis atmosphere meant to help Republicans—as well as whatever limits on voting he can impose, all justified with pretexts that he invents out of nothing. We all need to be ready for this. Fortuitously, Trump has told us himself exactly what he intends to do.

MSNBC to change name to 'MS NOW' in Comcast spinoff deal
MSNBC is set to change its name as part of Comcast's spin-off from NBC Universal, which the company announced in late 2024, according to the Wall Street Journal. The Wall Street Journal (WSJ) reported on Monday that the left-leaning network's new name will be "My Source News Opinion World," or MS NOW. CNBC, USA, Oxygen and E! are also included in the Comcast spin-off. CNBC is going to keep its name, according to the WSJ, but is working on a new logo. The move is part of the networks' attempt to separate themselves from NBC, the Journal reported. Cesar Conde will continue leading the NBCUniversal News Group, but now that group only includes NBC News, the NBC News Now streaming service, Telemundo and owned-and-operated local stations. Msnbc Staffers Lash Out At 'Morning Joe' Co-hosts Meeting With Trump: 'Disgusting But Frankly Unsurprising' Read On The Fox News App Msnbc's Revamped Lineup Flounders, Jen Psaki Sheds 47% Of Predecessors' Viewership NBC, Bravo and Peacock (NBC's streaming service) will remain under NBC Universal. "Comcast Corporation (NASDAQ: CMCSA) today announced its intent to create a new publicly traded company comprised of a strong portfolio of NBCUniversal's cable television networks, including USA Network, CNBC, MSNBC, Oxygen, E!, SYFY and Golf Channel along with complementary digital assets including Fandango and Rotten Tomatoes, GolfNow and Sports Engine, through a tax-free spin-off. The well-capitalized independent company ("SpinCo") will have significant scale as a pure-play set of assets anchored by leading news, sports and entertainment content," a November press release from Comcast read. Click Here For More Coverage Of Media And Culture Mark Lazarus, who will serve as the head of the new company, Versant, told the WSJ that they hoped to mitigate "brand confusion" in the spin-off. Lazarus told the WSJ that MS NOW would still cater to a progressive audience and prioritize "holding the political figures from both parties to account." "Change requires flexibility, adaptability, and an open mind. This change is good for us," MSNBC's Senior vice president of communications, Richard Hudock wrote in a post on X. The network's morning show, "Morning Joe" also reacted to the news on Monday. "What I've said on this show time and time again is you look at the people that are running the company, they're entrepreneurial. Right, like when you have somebody come into your company after working for big corporations and you're talking, you're sitting there and they go, we want you to be entrepreneurial. We want you to come up with new ideas. We want you to push the boundaries. I'm excited about that. So I'm excited about this, too. It's like, what's in a name? Well, whatever you put into the name," co-host Joe Scarborough said. No Trump Bump: Msnbc Hemorrhaging Viewers Since Election Day, Sheds More Than Half Of Primetime Audience Andrew Ross Sorkin, who co-hosts "Squawk Box" on CNBC and frequently appears on MSNBC, said he liked the new name. "I like this because I think it actually does have the sort of independence and actually gets away in some ways from even the idea of legacy media," Sorkin said. MSNBC host Rachel Maddow reacted to the name change in a statement to Variety. "If there was ever a time for us to change our name, this is it — because we're not just separating from NBC News in corporate terms, we're competing with them now. So I think the distinction is going to be good for us," Maddow said. "What NBC doing in its legacy timeslots — the Today Show, Nightly, Meet the Press — is just a world away from the 24/7 totally independent news operation that we're able to stand up now, thanks to the spin-off."Original article source: MSNBC to change name to 'MS NOW' in Comcast spinoff deal Solve the daily Crossword
