"Danish PM comes out for Ukraine membership in NATO. She's absolutely right. There's no country that could do more to strengthen NATO than Ukraine. Danish PM Frederiksen: "There are still red lines on the weapons Ukraine can use to win this war. You cannot win a war with one hand tied behind your back. We need to give them the weapons to strike inside Russia.

"One of the impressive things about Mamdani is that he listens to experts and evidence and learns and adapts. He wasn't YIMBY [--] months ago. He did have the goal of bringing down housing costs but his approach wouldn't have worked. I credit @DKThomp with exposing him to the evidence that YIMBY was the way to do it. And so Mamdani changed his approach and went to a much more market-oriented plan to lower housing costs in NYC. This is exceedingly rare in politicians. We should applaud and encourage it. Leftists outside NYC must pay attention to Mamdani's details It's not just a comms upgrade."
