The transatlantic bond remains fundamental to global peace and security. Its weakening would have consequences far beyond the West, especially for countries like Georgia, whose stability and future are closely tied to a cohesive transatlantic community.
We are witnessing a very sad moment in American history.
The President of the United States is aligning himself with the dictator of Russia, Vladimir Putin, to undermine the independence of Ukraine and its democracy.
Here are my thoughts:
BREAKING: Democrats go right for Elon Musk's jugular and introduce a bill to ban special government employees from obtaining federal contracts — directly threatening his lucrative government gravy train.
The best part is the name of the bill...
Representative Mark Pocan introduced the legislation which is titled "Eliminate Looting of Our Nation by Mitigating Unethical State Kleptocracy (ELON MUSK)."
"Elon Musk gets more than $20 billion in contracts from the US government and bought his way into a new role in the government where he can direct even more money to himself. Enough," Pocan wrote on X.
"My new bill, the ELON MUSK Act, will end this grift!" he added.
Musk's so-called Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) has become a lightning rod for criticism as the billionaire's unelected minions work to gut the federal government by rummaging through the Treasury Department's systems.
"@ElonMusk is ripping us off and like millions of Americans across the country, I’m pissed," Pocan added in another post.
"I’m taking action by introducing the ELON MUSK Act, preventing grifters like him from getting richer while pillaging our tax dollars for himself," he wrote.
Pocan is absolutely right. Musk's increasing control of our government while making money off government contracts is the definition of a conflict of interest. He and Trump are transitioning us from a democracy into a full-blown oligarchy.
Enough is enough. Pass this bill immediately.
Please retweet and ❤️ if you support passing the ELON MUSK bill— and consider joining the growing exodus to Tribel, a new pro-democracy social network that is exploding in popularity because Twitter and Facebook are trying to stop its growth — which is only making Tribel grow even faster.

🇬🇪 Georgia is now officially a one-party dictatorship. The Russian-backed Anti-Georgian Dream @GeorgianDream41 has rigged the system, crushed dissent, and hijacked the country.
They pretend to be strong—but their actions scream fear. Fear of the people. Fear of free elections. Fear of accountability.
Their fate is sealed. Dictatorships fall.
The only question is when.
DOGE is a trojan horse for Elon Musk to gut labor, consumer, and environmental protections.
If he actually wanted to cut waste, he'd look at the massive tax loopholes, government contracts, and subsidies that benefit the wealthy and large corporations.
Polyphonic singing and other cultural elements are a major tool for Georgian self-mobilization.
Tonight, for the first time in a while, people performed “Chakrulo,” a conspiracy song to overthrow a greedy lord that makes life impossible. #GeorgiaProtests

Georgian Dream propaganda: Protesters are radicals, agents, and people without a motherland (implying they lack patriotism).
Protesters: Singing Georgian folk songs.
