Today marks 24 days of Albanians protesting their government’s decision to green-light an island development project for the Trump and Kushner families.
Some protesters have been seen walking through the streets of Tirana chanting “Revolution!”
Putin is officially running out of "meat" for his meat-wave attacks, and the situation is getting Bloomberg-level dark in Russia. 📉🇷🇺
According to leaked sources from the FSB and the Kremlin reported by Verstka, Moscow is quietly preparing for a massive new mobilization wave this fall, right after the September elections. But shhh... don't call it "mobilization." That word scares the locals! 🤫
The math is simple: Russia's casualties hit a staggering 1,325 soldiers PER DAY in June. The massive cash bonuses aren't working anymore; contract sign-ups in Moscow have plummeted by a third compared to last year.
Now, recruiters are scraping the absolute bottom of the barrel. They are literally picking up homeless people from the streets and convicts from prisons who are so old and sick they can barely stand. The quality of the new recruits is so terrible that one Russian recruitment officer admitted: "I used to be a patriot, but after seeing the people they send me, I became totally unpatriotic." 😂🤦♂️
This time, the Kremlin has set up a digital draft system that automatically blocks your passport the second the email is sent—so no running away to Georgia or Finland like in 2022.
Putin wants to drag this out for 2-3 more years, but when your army consists of sick, forced convicts, "winning" looks like a very distant dream. Grab the popcorn! 🍿👀

❗️President Zelenskyy on Belarus and Lukashenko: if Lukashenko doesn't take down repeaters that help attack Ukrainian civilians, Ukraine will do that for him:
Now Russia will continue to push him [Lukashenko] into this war. Now he understands that Ukraine will respond.
Today, he has, repeaters on his towers. On his territory, along two regions bordering Ukraine, there is equipment that adjusts fire on the Ukrainian population.
They are killing civilians there.
There are repeaters on the corresponding towers. Can he take it down? Why say that he doesn’t want to be in the war? Let him take down this equipment. Let him turn off this equipment.
I think that a week will be enough for him to do this.
If he doesn’t do it, we will. Just like his, for example, oil industry. We are doing everything to prevent the Russians from being able to sell oil.
Passing the SAVE Act would literally be the gateway to the US becoming a fascist authoritarian republic. It'd be the equivalent of the Enabling Act of 1933, which allowed Hitler the authority to dismantle Germany's democracy. If Trump gets control of voter rolls, America is DEAD.
It’s so rare these days for the parties to come together to do anything at all in Congress. The housing bill won’t fix everything, but it represents a step forward for Americans. And Trump is refusing to sign till he gets his voter suppression bill. (1/4)

What are trump and Republicans focused on?
Putting trump’s fat face all over Washington, DC.
November is coming.
"That's it?" -- Durbin confronts a Trump DOJ nominee named Konstantinos Ligris with some of his tweets -- including calling Walz "tampon Tim," Biden officials "retarded," and referring to cops as "dumb as dirt" -- and Ligris doesn't even try to defend them, leaving Durbin dumbfounded
The President just threw another tantrum, and this time he is jeopardizing the biggest housing bill in three decades.
Less than two hours before he was set to sign it into law, Trump canceled the signing ceremony. Why?
Because he wants Congress to first pass a voter suppression bill that his own party admits does not have the votes. So he is holding housing relief hostage for an impossible demand.
The housing bill was a rare bipartisan win, after months of negotiation and both chambers on board. We just passed it in the House, 358 to 32. Republicans and Democrats standing together to finally do something about the cost of a roof over your head.
And Trump walked away from it.
Once again, he torched a victory he could have claimed, all because the spotlight was not pointed where he wanted it.
This is a grown man holding us all hostage to soothe his own ego. While families scrape together rent and watch home prices climb out of reach, the President decided his grievances mattered more than their futures.
He is at war with reality. People deserve a President who shows up to do the work, not one who throws a tantrum when he doesn’t get his way. We will keep fighting to get this done, with or without him.

Trump is refusing to sign a bipartisan bill that would address the housing crisis unless the SAVE America Act (designed to rig elections) is passed.
This isn't governing, it's a hostage situation. Republican, Dem, or Independent this should piss you off.
Trump now refuses to sign a bipartisan bill meant to make homeownership more affordable, increase housing, and ban corporate investors from buying residential homes.
