IF YOU CAN CREATE LAWS TO FORCE WOMEN TO CARRY UNWANTED PREGNANCIES, YOU CAN MAKE A LAW FORCING MEN TO GET VASECTOMIES.
Or, just reinstate and codify Roe.
"We need help now": President Zelenskyy says a major Russian offensive is expected in late May or June.
In an interview with CBS News, the President shared that the AFU managed to contain the Russians during the winter months and "stabilize the situation." However, Ukraine is not ready to defend against another major offensive.
The president met with journalists in Sumy region, whose border areas suffer from Russian shellings.
"Usually, when they attack with artillery and destroy villages, after that, they always try to occupy them. We don't know what will happen tomorrow. That's why we have to prepare," Zelenskyy said.
The president said that if Ukraine does not stand, Kazakhstan will be next, then the Baltic states, Poland, and Germany - "at least half of Germany." Therefore, Zelenskyy called on Western partners to provide Ukraine with more Patriot missile systems and artillery.
"Let's be honest, the money that Congress appropriates, the administration, in most cases, 80% of that money - well, at least more than 75% - stays in the United States. Those munitions are coming to us, but the production happens there, and the money stays in the U.S., and the taxes stay in the U.S.," he said.
President Zelenskyy said that the war in Gaza has reduced attention to the war in Ukraine, and Putin is actively making use of it. However, this is not the dictator's only tool. According to him, Putin is using the terrorist attack in Crocus City Hall in an attempt to unite his society and "justify that Ukraine does not exist."
Good morning and Happy Friday to everyone who is glad we have a President who doesn't have to sell overpriced sneakers and Bibles to raise campaign funds.
He had TWO former Presidents backing him.
And NONE of them needed a lawyer!

Et overskud på 21,3 mia. men alligevel udsigt til stigende priser.
Den er helt gal med konkurrencen på bankmarkedet.
Det er super bøvlet at skifte bank, og samtidig helt umuligt at gennemskue priserne.

War crime, after the war crime, after the war crime.
russia strikes a civilian area, waits for the first responders to arrive, strikes the area again.
how can anyone, anyone, even remotely support russia?
A real horror scene that could’ve been from movies, but it happens in Iran every day.
Clerics harassing women for not wearing hijab in their car.
Yes for the crime of resisting Sharia Laws, women get arrested, tortured, and murdered in Iran but they are still fighting against oppression.
We are calling the international community to join our fight to criminalize general apartheid.

Wow.
Here’s Robert De Niro’s full statement about how Donald Trump should NEVER be president again:
“I’ve spent a lot of time studying bad men. I’ve examined their characteristics, their mannerisms, the utter banality of their cruelty.
Yet there’s something different about Donald Trump. When I look at him, I don’t see a bad man. Truly.
I see an evil one.
Over the years, I’ve met gangsters here and there. This guy tries to be one, but he can’t quite pull it off. There’s such a thing as “honor among thieves.” Yes, even criminals usually have a sense of right and wrong.
Whether they do the right thing or not is a different story — but — they have a moral code, however warped.
Donald Trump does not. He’s a wannabe tough guy with no morals or ethics. No sense of right or wrong. No regard for anyone but himself — not the people he was supposed to lead and protect, not the people he does business with, not the people who follow him, blindly and loyally, not even the people who consider themselves his “friends.” He has contempt for all of them.
We New Yorkers got to know him over the years that he poisoned the atmosphere and littered our city with monuments to his ego. We knew first hand that this was someone who should never be considered for leadership. We tried to warn the world in 2016.
The repercussions of his turbulent presidency divided America and rattled New York City beyond imagination. Remember how we were jolted by crisis in early 2020, as a virus swept the world.
We lived with Donald Trump’s bombastic behavior every day on the national stage, and we suffered as we saw our neighbors piling up in body bags.
The man who was supposed to protect this country put it in peril, because of his recklessness and impulsiveness. It was like an abusive father ruling the family by fear and violent behavior. That was the consequence of New York’s warning getting ignored. Next time, we know it will be worse.
Make no mistake: the twice-impeached, 4-time indicted Donald Trump is still a fool. But we can’t let our fellow Americans write him off like one. Evil thrives in the shadow of dismissive mockery, which is why we must take the danger of Donald Trump very seriously.
So today we issue another warning. From this place where Abraham Lincoln spoke — right here in the beating heart of New York — to the rest of America:
This is our last chance.
Democracy won’t survive the return of a wannabe dictator.
And it won’t overcome evil if we are divided.
So what do we do about it? I know I’m preaching to the choir here. What we’re doing today is valuable, but we have to take today into tomorrow – take it outside these walls. We have to reach out to the half of our country who have ignored the hazards of Trump and, for whatever reason, support elevating him back into the White House.
They’re not stupid, and we must not condemn them for making a stupid choice. Our future doesn’t just depend on us. It depends on them.
Let’s reach out to Trump’s followers with respect. Let’s not talk about “democracy.” “Democracy” may be our holy grail, but to others it is just a word, a concept, and in their embrace of Trump, they’ve already turned their backs on it.
Let’s talk about right and wrong. Let’s talk about humanity.
Let’s talk about kindness. Security for our world.
Safety for our families.
Decency.
Let’s welcome them back.
We won’t get them all, but we can get enough to end the nightmare of Trump, and fulfill the mission of this “Stop Trump Summit.”
The absurdity of tonight makes me more fired up than ever to do what I do
I have been w @JoeBiden in every major US city. I have been with @JoeBiden as he engaged w every world leader
There is no one with a firmer grasp on the issues nor greater respect on the world stage 🇺🇸
Today, 11 years ago, people in Aleppo started witnessing tied-up bodies in the Queek River, civilians recovered at least 220 bodies.
They were handcuffed, including children and women. They were detained and executed by Assad’s forces. The majority of the bodies were killed by a shot in the head.
We will never forget
We will never forgive
