capitulation

When those feelings return before England have even reached Australian shores, after capitulations against the cuddly New Zealanders rather than the fiercest enemy, you can be forgiven for wavering.

Republicans are wrestling with their own pressures, namely whether to legislate short-term fixes for discrete shutdown problems or to let the messes mount and thereby push Democrats into capitulation.

Admittedly, this capitulation was not quite as dramatic as the one at Mount Maunganui, with movement through the air and off the pitch not as pronounced.

When Jeffries finally backed Zohran Mamdani in New York City’s mayoral race on Friday, it felt to many less like an endorsement than a capitulation in a fight for the future of the Democratic Party.

Russia has rejected this idea, repeating demands that Kyiv and its allies describe as de facto capitulation by Ukraine.
