President Biden says he thinks Russia will invade Ukraine and is warning President Putin that his country will pay a “dear price” if it does. Russia has amassed 100,000 troops near the Ukrainian border. Talks in Europe last week failed to ease tensions. https://t.co/XI03vuo9mu

This from @SecBlinken is right on the mark: "This is not only about a possible invasion and war. It’s about whether Ukraine has a right to exist as a sovereign nation. It’s about whether Ukraine has a right to be a democracy."

Germany wants to buy natural gas from Russia, and doesn't want to send arms to Ukraine so as to avoid dangerous escalation. The GOP wants to sanction Germany for Nord Stream 2, the Dems for its refusal to send arms to Ukraine. National sovereignty is great https://t.co/cI7XLlmTiN pic.twitter.com/75bNXEmhzq

NEW The Government’s whips operation is on the front foot tonight about claims of threats over ‘partygate’. One source tells me the claims are a "load of b*******" and demanded to see "a single shred of evidence" for them.

Stand by for:

1. This did not happen.

2. It did happen, but the Prime Minister knew nothing about it.

3. The Prime Minister knew about it, but it wasn’t technically blackmail.

4. It was blackmail, but the Prime Minister wasn’t told that blackmail was against the law. https://t.co/stOkehR2MF

Rory Stewart – #PartyGate should be the last nail in Boris Johnson's coffin… Johnson was manifestly unsuited to be Prime Minister from the beginning, & it's very, very disturbing that a great country, like Britain, should have chosen somebody so unsuitable for the role. pic.twitter.com/sZK1PDoyJD

Let’s be clear: if Tories are threatening to withhold public investment from constituencies as a way of keeping MPs in line then, yes, that’s blackmail & intimidation – but it is also corruption.

Boris Johnson may be ending plan B measures, including mandatory face masks, despite 100k new cases of Covid a day.

But my advice as a doctor is to strongly recommend continuing to wear masks in indoor spaces outside home.

If the former president has no executive privilege to hide evidence of an attempted coup or insurrection, neither do his family or friends. If Ivanka Trump was with Donald Trump as the attack unfolded, she is a material fact witness. I look forward to her testimony.
