The mayor of Charlotte, NC asks that we not post about this lady murdered on a Charlotte train by a repeat offender with 14 prior arrests!
I say in Iryna’s memory please share and make this go viral! A repeat offender with 14 prior arrests should not be roaming the streets of ANY city! They should be locked up!! Epic failure in the justice system!
@newschannelnine Ain't happening folks. Only the importers get the tariff refunds. The importers already passed the increased costs onto retailers and the paying customers.
Please watch this for context.

In Ukraine, families are facing a cold, difficult winter. But if there’s one thing I’ve learned from Ukrainians, it’s that the light will always shine through the darkness.
That’s why I’m proud to announce that my Longer Tables Fund is matching donations up to $250,000 to Save Ukraine @SaveukraineUs to support critical energy infrastructure - generators and batteries to keep families warm, safe, and together.
Together, we can bring warmth and dignity when it is needed most.
Please join me in making a gift today: https://t.co/1Q0mVKno9Y
Timothy Snyder: By resisting, Ukrainians held back a wider war in Europe.
Maybe most importantly, they've given us an example of courage.
A better question to ask on the four-year anniversary of this terrible criminal war is, what more could we be doing to help the Ukrainians win this war? There's only one way to end it, and that's for the Ukrainians to win - @TimothyDSnyder
Tomorrow, many of you will think of Ukraine.
As Ukraine faces pressure to accept capitulation, remember: there will be no peace without justice.
We owe justice to every innocent life taken by russia's war.
For every fallen defender. For every murdered civilian.
For Mariupol.
For the bombing of the Drama Theater.
For the Bucha massacre.
For the mass graves in Izyum.
For Kherson and the human safaris.
For the destruction of the Kakhovka dam.
For the playground bombing in Kryvyi Rih.
For nuclear terrorism at the Zaporizhzhia power plant.
For Pokrovsk, Avdiivka, Bakhmut, Volnovakha, Popasna, Maryinka, Lysychansk, Vovchansk — and hundreds of towns and villages erased from the map forever.
For freezing Ukrainians in winter and killing energy workers.
For every double tap against first responders.
For murdering doctors, targeting ambulances, bombing hospitals. For Kyiv's Okhmatdyt.
For every civilian bus, car, bike deliberately struck.
For every child abducted.
For every prisoner of war tortured, injured, or killed in captivity.
For every woman, man, and child raped.
For every person buried beneath the rubble of their home.
For every torture chamber under occupation.
For every filtration camp.
For the indoctrination of Ukrainian children.
For looted Ukrainian culture.
For destroying Ukrainian farmland and stealing Ukrainian grain.
For confiscating property under occupation.
For countless other crimes that continue as we speak.
There will be no real peace without justice.
Never.
Here’s what the fascist regime in the Kremlin and its cronies are actually really good at: showing off, posturing, beating their chests, and pretending black is white without even blinking, no matter what.
Their so-called “special military operation” to take Kyiv within three days has entered its fifth year.
They’ve now spent close to three years trying to seize what’s left of the ruins of the small town of Chasiv Yar in Donbas.
They just got their asses handed back to them in Kupiansk for the second time in this war.
They get their oil refineries and military factories hit every single night. Their Black Sea Fleet has been smashed and driven back to its bases by a country without a navy, and its flagship has been lying on the seabed for nearly four years now, sent there by a pair of fairly simple missiles.
Et cetera, et cetera, et cetera.
And yet -- they show off like as if they’ve made Hannibal, Genghis Khan, Alexander the Great, Napoleon, and at the very least Guderian chew their own feet off out of envy.
Go figure.
Remember this, kids:
An attempted assassination of a very high-ranking Russian general responsible for mass war crimes is an “attempt to derail peace negotiations.”
Meanwhile, daily missile terror, the mass killing of civilians, depriving millions of people of electricity and heat in the middle of a record-cold winter, along with open calls to destroy Ukraine as a nation — are all perfectly fine and in no way a disruption of the “peace process.”
Don’t get it mixed up!
💔Denys Shevchuk, a 29-year-old soldier from Chernivtsi, and Milena, a 21-year-old woman from the Donetsk region, found love under the most challenging circumstances.
They met in a coffee shop where Milena worked. Three months ago, Denys was gravely wounded in combat, losing both legs, an arm, and an eye. Despite the hardships, their bond only grew stronger.
They got married a few days ago. Milena now dedicates her days to caring for him, showing unwavering love and devotion as they face the future together.
PRESIDENT TRUMP: “I think I can say, what do you think, Lindsey? My second term is blowing my first term away. And my first term was really good.”
LINDSEY GRAHAM: “Reagan Plus!”
PRESIDENT TRUMP: “Reagan plus. Yeah, well, whatever. Thank you very much everybody!"
No fly zone immediately….more defensive missiles and systems…live up to the expectations of your moment in history….no empty promises. This war was never supposed to happen if NATO was “really” there…@ZelenskyyUa deserves more support…
Rather than acknowledge that Putin flat-out lied to him, Trump chooses to fabricate a ridiculous story about a “ceasefire” lasting from Sunday to Sunday. It’s pure fiction, and it shows just how determined Trump is to justify Putin at any cost.
During my visit to Kyiv today I saw a civilian heating plant targeted by Russian missiles.
No military value whatsoever - attacks meant only to make people suffer.
But Ukraine stands strong. And NATO stands with you.
679 Ukrainian girls and boys will never be able to play football — Russia killed them.
And it keeps killing more while moral degenerates suggest lifting bans, despite Russia’s failure to end its war.
Future generations will view this as a shame reminiscent of the 1936 Olympics.
Donald Trump says Putin kept his promise not to strike Ukraine’s energy: “The pause was Sunday to Sunday…We will take anything.” However, during that period Russia attacked Ukraine’s power grid multiple times—on January 25, 26, 27, 28, and on February 3.
I hope people understand what happened here. Yesterday in the late afternoon, Trump said that Putin had promised not to attack Ukraine in such a way that it would damage their heating. Then a few hours later, that is exactly what the Russians did in a massive attack.
Add 2 and 2 together and what do you get? Trump helping Putin by deliberately passing on disinformation in the hope of lulling people into a false sense of security.
Once again, Trump is helping Putin kill Ukrainians.
Masked thugs on streets.
Measles outbreaks across the nation.
Blatant government corruption.
Coverup of elite sex offenders.
Ruling party trying to rig elections.
Leader building grandiose monuments to himself.
Destruction of nonpartisan civil service.
Third world America.
