Crown Prince Reza Pahlavi delivered a clear and powerful message regarding the current US-Iran negotiations:

"The people of Iran are not represented in these negotiations. 40,000 Iranians have not died for the Strait of Hormuz or for a nuclear deal."

As an Iranian, I’m tired of watching our brothers and sisters’ blood being traded for empty agreements.

Europeans and American patriots!

Tomorrow, the courts of my country, France, may decide to send me to prison for daring to say on television that “the main danger to women in France is Black African and Arab immigrant men.”

Meanwhile, my own attacker, a Tunisian migrant, is still at large.

I need your help to generate media pressure and hope to be acquitted.

They cannot silence the truth!

Thank you for your support 💪🏻🇫🇷

Very emotional moment from the interview with Zelenskyy. You should watch this.

JOURNALIST: Do you miss being an actor?

ZELENSKYY:?I miss being a good father.

JOURNALIST: When your children were little, what did you tell them the most? What was the thing that you told them the most when they were small?

ZELENSKYY: I love you.

JOURNALIST: And what do you tell them now that they're older?

ZELENSKYY: Oh, I miss you.

JOURNALIST: When was the last time you cried?

ZELENSKYY: I will try to do it after our interview. No, I mean this, between us. I'm a normal man and then there are a lot of different moments, between us, almost each day, a lot of losses on the battlefield and civilians, and there are absolutely crazy attacks on our people.

And I'm just, it's… I mean, It's very difficult really, when I give orders (medals). I said about it. It's always difficult for me when I give orders (medals) to the mothers and fathers, who lost their children. In such moments, really, I often cry.

JOURNALIST: Are you a hero?

ZELENSKYY: No.

JOURNALIST: So who is your hero?

ZELENSKYY:?My hero? My children, my army, our army, and Ukrainian people. So I'm a part… I'm also a Ukrainian, so I'm a part of our nation. But now our nation, I think, that our nation is absolutely heroic.

@Simon_Sithole20 @sarstax Total VIP budget = R 3,75 billion
Total no of Ministers =75
Total spent protecting each Minister (including Deputies) annually = R 50 million
In summary the government is spending about 4.2 million per month per minister protecting themselves from us the tax payers and voters!

[Nurden Cross 🇿🇦 🇺🇦 🇮🇱 🎗️ @CrossNurden]

@Simon_Sithole20 @sarstax A simple example of how we are being financially abused by the ruling elite in South Africa:
VIP Security - How much does the taxpayer spend annually on protecting Cabinet Ministers?

[Simon Sithole @Simon_Sithole20]

Somebody explain to me like I'm in Grade R...

Why should South Africans 🇿🇦continue to pay almost 50% of their salaries to this current UNCARING & UNPATRIOTIC government? @sarstax

Personne n'a gagné cette guerre. On peut seulement classer les perdants.

- Le régime iranien est sorti à l'agonie, mais sauvé in extremis par ses propres ennemis.

- Washington a brûlé un choc pétrolier pour revenir à la case départ.

- Israël a gagné la guerre mais perdu Washington.

- Le Golfe a payé le bouclier américain et n'a reçu que la facture.

- Le Liban a subi encore la guerre des autres sans que personne lui demande son avis.

- Les Européens ont commenté, payé, et décidé de rien.

- La Chine s'est découverte étranglable, toute sa puissance suspendue à un détroit qu'un autre peut refermer.

- Le peuple iranien a rêvé de voir tomber ses bourreaux et les a vus sauvés par ceux qui promettaient de l'en délivrer.

[Emmanuel Ruimy @EmmanuelRuimy]

Pousser un peuple à se soulever, l'abandonner au massacre, puis pactiser avec ses bourreaux : connaît-on escroquerie morale plus achevée dans l'histoire diplomatique ?

The bells of the Lavra rang out across Kyiv after Russia’s massive attack on the capital.

A sound of faith, resilience, and survival above a city that endured another night of terror.

[Volodymyr Zelenskyy / Володимир Зеленський @ZelenskyyUa]

Efforts to deal with the aftermath of the Russian strikes are ongoing in Kyiv, as well as in Kharkiv. Last night, the Russians launched more than 60 missiles at the capital alone. In total, 70 missiles and 611 drones were used against Ukraine. As of now, 28 people have been reported injured and four killed in the capital. My condolences to all their families and loved ones. A Russian strike on the Kyiv-Pechersk Lavra set the Dormition Cathedral on fire – a church whose history dates back to the 11th century. And this is one of Russia’s most serious crimes against Christian culture to date. The State Emergency Service has already extinguished the fire on the cathedral’s roof. In Kharkiv, the Russians carried out a repeat strike against our rescuers as they were putting out a fire at the site of an earlier strike on an industrial facility. So far, tragically, five people have been confirmed killed. My condolences to all their families and loved ones. Nine people have been injured. In Dnipro, Russia struck the grounds of a railway station, a college, and several enterprises.

Other cities and communities were targeted as well. The Kyiv, Dnipro, Donetsk, Zaporizhzhia, Sumy, and Mykolaiv regions were also under attack. This is how Russia shows the world its intention to continue the war. It is very important that there be a response from the G7 countries, which are now gathering for their summit – and that this response be decisive and substantive: more pressure on the aggressor and more support for Ukraine’s air defense, especially anti-ballistic capabilities. I thank everyone who is helping us protect lives.

[Howard Feldman @HowardFeldman]

There is a profound sense of disbelief among many of those who have stood firmly with both Israel and the United States throughout this conflict. In conversations with listeners, analysts, commentators and ordinary supporters, I have struggled to find anyone who can clearly articulate the strategic victory in the deal Trump has chosen to pursue.

The overwhelming sentiment is disappointment. For many, it feels less like the successful conclusion of a campaign and more like the abandonment of one.

Trump entered this confrontation with enormous goodwill from Israel and from those who believed he understood the nature of the Iranian regime. He was prepared to take risks, to project strength, and to stand alongside a close ally in confronting one of the world's leading sponsors of terror. That is why the way this has ended feels so jarring.

In the process, he has not only shaken the confidence of one of America's most loyal partners, but has also handed a propaganda victory to a regime that has spent decades exporting terror, suppressing its own people and destabilising the region.

Perhaps most painful of all is the message this sends to the millions of Iranians who looked to America as a source of hope. To those who believed that the world had finally recognised the nature of the regime under which they live, this feels less like support and more like abandonment.

Of course, the story is not over. The chapter has not yet been written. Iran has spent decades proving that it cannot be trusted. If history is any guide, reality will eventually collide with optimism.

And if that happens, Trump may discover that winning back trust is far more difficult than losing it

[Caolan @CaolanReports]

I just watched priests trying to save crucifixes from a burning monastery.

This is what russia is destroying.

The Kyiv Lavra is one of the holiest Orthodox sites on earth. A UNESCO World Heritage site.

Moscow calls itself “Christian civilisation.”

It’s literally barbarism.

[David Collier @mishtal]

When you land in Israel, you see Muslims everywhere - working in offices, relaxing on beaches, praying in mosques, living freely.

When you visit Arab states, Jewish sites are museums to vanished Jewish communities chased out long ago.

But yeah, sure, Israel is "Apartheid".

Was die meisten schon wieder vergessen haben:

2021 hat Elon Musk den Vereinten Nationen angeboten, für die Beendigung des Welthungers mit dem Verkauf eines Teils seiner Tesla-Aktien zu zahlen.

Die einzige Bedingung: Die Vereinten Nationen legen transparent offen, wie genau dieser Betrag den Welthunger beenden würde und wie die Mittel eingesetzt werden.

Natürlich haben die Vereinten Nationen das Angebot nicht angenommen. Sie hätten nämlich erklären müssen, wie es sein kann, dass seit den 1950er Jahren 2 BILLIONEN DOLLAR an „Entwicklungshilfen“ nach Afrika geflossen sind, sich aber in all den Jahren nichts zum Besseren entwickelt hat.

Das Problem ist nicht Elon Musk.
Das Problem sind korrupte Politiker, die dir sagen, dass Elon Musk das Problem wäre.

[RonnieH @My_name_is_RonH]

For those like Elizabet Warren complaining about Elon Musk being a trillionaire...

- Elon employs over 155,000 people globally.
- He has reinvented the automotive business that has forced competition resulting in millions of tons of reduced CO2 emissions.
- He has created Starlink that now allows internet connectivity to anywhere in the world.
- He supplied Starlink to Ukraine days after Russia destroyed their internet capability.
- His Neuralink company is now helping those who are paralyzed to regain their abilities.
- His SpaceX company is economically and safely shuttling astronauts to the international space station for leading edge science work as well as placing satellites into space.
- He's promoted free speech on this X platform to all.
- His Boring company is efficiently boring tunnels under cities for utility and transportation relief.
- He is working directly and indirectly with NASA to establish a Moon base and advance onto other space objectives putting America first in the space race.
- He created PayPal that allows for a simple and secure internet payment method.
- He has made tens of thousands of millionaires out of his employees and retail investors.

All this and I'm sure more in the future. Yet, he lives simply, not extravagantly, works HARD everyday as an engineer and a business man. He has probably done more for the betterment of humanity than anyone in modern history. Plus, lets understand the "trillionaire" label is due to his assets, not money in the bank. So now tell us Elizabeth Warren what have YOU done for the world?

[Bad Hombre @Badhombre]

Every dollar Elon Musk has made is traceable. Every product sold, every service rendered, every government contract awarded, every share of stock bought or sold. It’s all on the record.

You, on the other hand, haven’t built a company, invented a product, or created anything people willingly pay for. You’ve spent the last 14 years collecting a $174,000 Senate salary.

Yet somehow you managed to buy a luxury D.C. condo, a $4 million Victorian mansion in Cambridge, and saw your net worth balloon by 150% to $12 million. Everyone knows where Musk’s money came from. The same can’t be said for yours.

[Gina Beana Fofina @Ginasassyass]

Scott Jennings nailed the liberal meltdown over Elon Musk, becoming the world’s first trillionaire:

“All day long, I’ve been listening to liberals count and spend Elon’s money for him. This envy, jealousy, hatred of success. Why is it immoral? Why is it wrong for somebody in our system… to build companies, build technologies, go into space, aim to put a colony on Mars, give internet to half the world?”

The outrage isn’t about “fairness”, it’s envy dressed up as virtue.

Success that creates jobs, technology, and real progress threatens a worldview built on grievance and zero-sum thinking.

Elon Musk is the shining example of immigration done right.

A legal immigrant who came to America, worked relentlessly, took enormous risks, and built companies that deliver massive value to humanity.

Not by taking from others, but by creating wealth that didn’t exist before.

Success isn’t a crime.

It’s the American Dream in action.

Congratulations, @elonmusk, well earned. Keep building. 🚀
