@NAFOvoyager It breaks my heart, he has the look of a grown man in a child's portrait. Rest easy sweet boy.

[Lindsey Connolly @LSConnolly82]

Look at this beautiful child and go find a Ukrainian brigade to support! Even if it's a dollar or an hour or whatever you can spare. This beautiful baby deserves to be honored.

“Children scattered… but 8-year-old Bohdan kept holding two balls so they wouldn’t get lost.”

That’s when a russian drone hit a playground in Cherkasy on April 14.

The blast threw him into the air. He never got up.

Yes, aluminium is fungible: even if alumina doesn’t become a specific missile part, it may still free up other aluminium for weapons.

But Irish politicians keep saying sanctions aren’t needed because there’s no evidence of a direct link to weapons. That’s why I’m testing it

A design engineer, musician, and athlete from Azov helped another unit in battle. They not only withstood the Russian offensive but also went on the attack. However, he was killed in that battle.

BREAKING📷 A woman donated $1 million to Trump's super PAC. Three weeks later, her son a convicted tax criminal was pardoned. His pardon application literally mentioned her donation.
Her name is Elizabeth Fago. Her son, Paul Walczak, had pleaded guilty to federal tax crimes. The pardon application filed on his behalf explicitly cited his mother's million-dollar donation to MAGA Inc. as a reason he deserved clemency. Trump signed the pardon. Walczak walked free and was relieved of more than $4 million in restitution he owed.
That is one entry on a donor list of 58 people who gave a million dollars or more.
MAGA Inc., Trump's super PAC, has now raised over $305 million since the 2024 election five times more than any presidential super PAC in history at this stage. The Brennan Center called it "completely unprecedented." Ninety-six percent of it came from donors giving $1 million or more. Sixty-two percent from those giving $5 million or more. This is not a grassroots operation. It is a pay-window.
Here's what the donor list actually shows.
https://t.co/s5GJV5zpIa's parent company, Foris Dax, gave $30 million — while it was under SEC investigation for allegedly trading unregistered securities. The SEC investigation was quietly dropped in March 2025, two months after the donation.
The Winklevoss twins gave $1 million — also while their crypto platform Gemini was under SEC investigation. That investigation was dropped in February 2025.
Energy Transfer, the Texas pipeline company, and its CEO Kelcy Warren gave a combined $25 million — while Energy Transfer was actively suing a federal regulatory agency in court.
OpenAI President Greg Brockman and his wife gave $25 million — as the Trump administration was actively shaping AI policy in Silicon Valley's favor.
Then there are the appointments. Benjamin Landa gave $5 million then became Trump's ambassador to Hungary. Kelly Loeffler and her husband gave $5 million she now runs the Small Business Administration. Warren Stephens gave $2 million now ambassador to the United Kingdom. Jared Isaacman gave $2 million now NASA administrator.
And Isabela Herrera, a 25-year-old self-employed financial consultant whose only prior political donation was $20 to Pete Buttigieg in 2020, somehow contributed $3.5 million to MAGA Inc. Her father a Venezuelan billionaire facing federal bribery charges was pardoned by Trump in January 2026. Campaign Legal Center has filed a formal complaint with the FEC alleging she was a straw donor for her father.
This is not dark money. This is public record.
Every dollar, every favor, every pardon. Filed with the FEC. Sitting in plain sight.

@NatureUnedited This is why I love dogs! I had a German shepherd one time that used to do something similar. He was a good boy.

❗️These blokes literally gave life AND limb to protect their families and yours in Europe, all I'm asking is to help buy them a second hand bus to get them to a rehab center to help them fucking walk again.

ZELENSKYY: Even on frontline, we have internet. They restrict internet in Moscow, they can’t use social media in their capital. We can use it on battlefield. Nobody stopped our soldiers. They can go online during pauses or whenever they want to speak with their children and etc.

After a week of fighting for her life, 19-year-old student Irina Zabudko, who was injured during a massive Russian attack on Kyiv on June 2, has died

The girl's death was announced by her teacher, Vsevolod Zelennin. Irina was a second-year student at the Faculty of Psychology of the Mykhailo Dragomanov National University of Kyiv.

The girl suffered serious injuries during Russia's combined attack on Kyiv on the night of June 2. Doctors fought for her life for a week, but failed to save the student.

Recall that as a result of that attack on the capital, seven people were killed and another 90 were injured, including three children.

💔 — I express my condolences to her relatives and friends

[Kateryna Lisunova @KaterynaLis]

Friends, just a reminder: Vladyslav is an amazing, highly patriotic, and principled Ukrainian athlete who knows firsthand the injustice of the international sports community allowing Russians back into competition — including those who openly support the war and the Russian dictator — while at the same time unfairly disqualifying Ukrainian athletes.

He consistently works to bring attention to this issue, so please give him a follow and tell your friends to do the same. He is one of the voices that deserves to be heard.

[Anton Gerashchenko @Gerashchenko_en]

Russia has now lost four elections in a row: in Romania, Moldova, Hungary, and now Armenia.

What's more, no one expected the margin in Armenia to be so large. This suggests that Armenians have lost faith in Russia and are distancing themselves from it.

I do not believe Russia will take military action against Armenia. The military base poses no threat, and Russia itself is exhausted by the war it is waging against Ukraine.

Through its heroic resistance, Ukraine is also giving other nations and states a chance to break free from Russia.

I believe Georgia may be next in attempting to remove pro-Russian forces.

Armenia's break with Russia will strengthen Turkey and its influence in the region. That is good news.

In addition, sources believe that the defeat in Armenia could be used by the Kremlin to oust the so-called "Armenian lobby" within the Russian leadership: to weaken, remove its members from office, and cut them off from financial flows.

The main names mentioned are Mikhail Mishustin, Russian prime minister, and Sergey Lavrov, Russian foreign minister.

Russia continues to lose ground and its influence.

🇺🇦 Russian soldiers surrendered with the help of a Ukrainian drone

The POWs said their commanders were sending them into suicide assaults and threatening to "zero them out" if they refused.

At their position, they found a leaflet with instructions on how to surrender, laid down their weapons, and waited for a Ukrainian drone, which guided them safely away from the front line.

Now they are urging other Russians not to sign military contracts, avoid the war, and, if already at the front, surrender.

“If you see one of these leaflets, follow the instructions. Everything will be fine — a drone will come, guide you out safely, and you'll be welcomed and given water,” one of the soldiers said.

🇺🇦🇷🇺 ZALUZHNYI MAKES UKRAINE’S RED LINE ABSOLUTELY CLEAR

"...Our goal is to liberate all Ukrainian land from Russian occupation. We will not stop on this path under any circumstances.

The Ukrainian military will not accept any negotiations, agreements or compromise decisions. There is only one condition for negotiations, Russia must leave all captured territories." - Valerii Zaluzhnyi 🇺🇦

That is the position Moscow keeps trying to avoid: Ukraine is not fighting for a better deal with the occupier, it is fighting to end the occupation.

No frozen surrender. No fake peace built on stolen land. Russia started this war by crossing Ukraine’s borders, and the road to real negotiations begins with Russia leaving them.
