Seven weeks ago, Putin launched Russia's brutal Ukraine invasion. To many Syrians, the war’s destructiveness harks back to when Russian jets began bombing *them* in 2015.

Democrats may lose control of both chambers of Congress in the midterms. Will progressives be blamed?

As we gear up for the midterms, what's the state of the Republican Party in the key battleground of Georgia?
It's "basically one of civil war,” @bluestein says. "I think Georgia’s going to be the biggest test of Donald Trump’s clout in the entire nation."
