POTUS continues to pretend that Ukraine’s new (!!!) strategy of attacking Russian oil refineries is responsible for two straight years of elevated energy prices that spiked after he launched a war on Iran. To assume we’re all this stupid should be offensive.
GOP Rep. Mike Turner of Ohio on Sunday called for a congressional investigation into disruptions in Ukraine to satellite communications with Starlink, the technology owned by SpaceX's Elon Musk. https://t.co/cxUHXoS2z5
The iconic Bigfoot video from 1967 is officially confirmed to be a hoax after new archival footage was found for an upcoming documentary.

Rep. Mike Turner says Secretary of State Marco Rubio’s explanation about Ukraine’s loss of Starlink access as something that “sort of happened” was “absolutely not” sufficient.
“This is something where there needs to be an investigation, there needs to be a congressional investigation,” Turner (R-OH) tells @margbrennan, adding, “lives are at risk, and lives are lost over these things.”

Bessent hates Ukraine and considers Zelenskyy a "little fucker." He just hates people who don't sign "mineral deals" according to which Trump & Co. would own our entire country outright, i guess.
The text below is from "Regime Change"
This morning on Meet the Press, Treasury Secretary Bessent was asked three times whether Ukraine is an ally of the United States. Three times he dodged the question.
He should be ashamed of himself.
Ukrainians are defending their homes, children, and democracy against Putin's brutal invasion.
My grandfather went off to fight in World War II because Americans understood that when a dictator invades a free country, we stand with the people defending it. That same conviction has made America strong for many decades and should continue to guide us now.
So I'll answer the question Secretary Bessent wouldn't. Yes, Ukraine is our ally.
And we must not turn our back on them.
THIS IS THE GREATEST CELLY EVER:
#JAGUARS RB BHAYSHUL TUTEN AND HIS TEAMMATES JUST CELEBRATED A TOUCHDOWN BY DOING THE ICONIC “TIP TOEING IN MY JORDANS” DANCE.
THIS IS ABSOLUTELY HILARIOUS.
😭😭😭
None of the pressure on Russia and Putin (the country helping Iran in the war against us and the unjust aggressors in this war); all of the pressure on Ukraine and Zelenskyy (the country siding with us and Western European democracies)
Trump: "My decision on Russia is a very simple one. I am in the process of negotiating Peace in the war between Russia and Ukraine, and don’t want to do anything that will drive, foolishly, Russia away from the bargaining table. Great progress is being made, and that includes current hostage negotiations! Signing that document at this time will do that, and I can sign it later, or any time that I want! Perhaps more importantly, Russia is doing very little, if anything, to help the Islamic Republic of Iran, compared to what they could be doing, and I want to keep it that way, and will, unless stupid people get in the way. Lastly, Zelenskyy is using Diesel Refineries in Russia as a target, knowing that these attacks are seriously hurting the world diesel markets, including those in the United States. Farmers, ranchers, and businesses of all kinds are suffering greatly from this, but Russia is, nevertheless, sending, at a low price, millions of barrels of diesel to the World. Zelenskyy doesn’t care, and frankly, with all of the money that Europe is famously giving him, and that Crooked Joe Biden gave him in the past, he doesn’t want to end this war, and probably never did. He could have made a better deal two years ago than he can now. His country is in shambles, a large portion of his land is lost, his oceans and seas are gone, and his male population is low, wounded, and/or dead. I WANT THIS WAR END! Thank you for your attention to this matter. President DONALD J. TRUMP"
MAGA is a lot of things, folks. It’s brain rot. It’s a cult. It’s utterly compromising and corrupting. But it also has a way of castrating formerly clear-eyed, convicted people who definitely know better.
Trump says if Israel does not re-elect Netanyahu, then the US may not defend Israeli interests: "If Israel has the wrong Leader, which would be anyone other than Bibi, America will have to do this work ourselves, and I am not inclined to do so."
Callousness and cruelty in regard to human life is a hallmark of Trumpism, but wasn’t Vance supposed to be the principled anti-war guy? The sympathetic peacemaker?
