Johnson: If we were to lose the midterms, heaven forbid, these Democrats, y'all impeachment's not even the big concern. They will turn every committee of Congress into an investigative body, and they'll go after the president's family, the The cabinet, his donors and friends, half of you in this room will be targeted. I run the protection program. We’ll take care of you.
Massie: "I think it's ironic that we control the House, Senate, Supreme Court, and the White House, and we're yelling 'election fraud'? I mean, we won all the damn elections."
Judging by the deafening roar from the Kremlin's online propaganda machine — from useful idiots in the West and professional anti-'escalation' crusaders to hordes of trolls and bots on this hellsite — Ukraine's strikes at the very foundation of Russia's war machine are really painful and the Kremlin is getting really nervous.
CyberBoroshno analysis finds Putin’s residence in Valdai has been demolished. Analysts said the logic remains unclear, but suggested fear of a drone strike on the site as a possible motive. A section of the M-11 highway near the residence was also closed today. #Russia
One thing people need to understand is that fuel shortages don't just mean a loss of motorised mobility - they mean generators used to power command centres and charge drone batteries cannot function.
This will become a major problem for the Russians.
Russia spent a decade making occupied Crimea "energy-independent." This animation shows what the money actually bought.
The two plants it built—Balaklava and Tavrida—cover about 90% of Crimea's power. Both run on gas piped from the mainland.
So when Ukrainian drones hit the gas stations feeding the grid, Sevastopol goes dark.
The whole mechanism, in 90 seconds. ▶️
"Now, in the fifth year of Putin’s barbaric invasion, the assumption that time is on Russia’s side seems to be increasingly inaccurate. The longer this war drags on, the more likely it is that time may, instead, be on Ukraine’s side."

🇺🇦 In Crimea, Russia declares a state of emergency—no power, no fuel, no control. 2,500 cars flee via the fragile Kerch Bridge—still open, as Ukraine lets them leave. June saw record attacks—refineries, arsenals, and strikes. Russia’s size won’t shield it from supporting Putin’s war.

“The army will turn its weapons against the Kremlin”
Russian soldier threatens Putin with a military mutiny.
He claims that russian soldiers are being tortured and punished for refusing to carry out “senseless suicidal orders.”
Another fleet of hundreds of Ukrainian drones is flying to Crimea to apply drone sanctions throughout the temporarily occupied peninsula.
There are reports that the Russians have started transporting fuel across the Kerch Bridge. Will tonight be the night it's closed forever? ⛔️
My family immigrated to the U.S. when I was three years old because my dad believed in the promises of the American Dream.
Today, that dream is drifting further and further away from too many Floridians — I’m running to lead the fight to bring it back within reach.
