KYIV -- Russia's interference in Ukraine is just one sign of a broad attempt to destabilize democracies around the world, U.S. Senator Cory Booker (Democrat-New Jersey) has told RFE/RL.

"When it comes to Russian aggression, let's be clear: The Russians are seeking to not just attack Ukraine, or attack the U.S., they are trying to undermine democracy," Booker said in an interview with RFE/RL's Ukrainian Service in Kyiv on May 31.

"Their attempt is to create divisions and divisiveness between individual leaders as well as within nations. And that's unacceptable," said Booker, who is on the Senate Foreign Relations Committee.

"Putin is somebody who is not going to negotiate with you if he thinks you're weak. Right now we need to show our strength....We need to show our strength through unity with our allies," Booker said.

1. If you saw Spice Boys presser from yesterday

We are very close to having him just come out and say "Dear Leader"...

I listened to the Trump White House recap of the trip with my mouth gaping... what absolute drivel.

All that is left is to pass a law saying the media is the enemy of the people and that only the "truth" will be allowed on the airways and cable networks... followed by even more laws that say anyone who states things other than the official truth will be labeled a traitor.

3. They used the Manchester bombing leaks

As an excuse:

LONDON — President Trump on Thursday denounced U.S. leaks about Britain’s investigation of the Manchester terrorist bombing as “deeply troubling” and asked the Justice Department and other agencies to launch a full investigation.

Leaks from the ongoing probe — including the publication of crime-scene photos in the New York Times and the naming of the suspected bomber by U.S. broadcasters — have provoked ire from British officials.

What they "say" will lead to defiant (rightly so) journalists being thrown in jail.
