KALLAS: Ministers condemn IOC’s decision to invite Russian athletes back to international competitions, as it coincides with Russia killing record number of Ukrainian civilians. Looks like IOC is rewarding such attacks. Commission is also ending the funding for Venice Biennale.
Great news 🇪🇺vs🇷🇺
Nine countries, (Estonia, Netherlands, Lithuania, Latvia, Poland, Sweden, Romania, Finland, and Denmark) just proposed to cut off funding to the most corrupt International Olympic Committee (IOC).
250 years ago, this country was founded on a radical idea that government answers to the people.
Today, that idea is under attack by a man who embodies the very tyranny our Founders rejected.
Let's honor the promise of America by defending our democracy.
IN DENMARK 🇩🇰 we don’t celebrate Independence Day, because 🇩🇰 were never ruled by any other nation.
🇩🇰 went to war more than 200 times & we lost some, but we never fully lost our sovereignty.
Foreign National flags are BANNED in our kingdom. Except the flag of #ukraine 🇺🇦
Since 2022, an exemption in our flag-law allows flying the Ukrainian flag, because we acknowledge that Ukraine is protecting OUR SOVEREIGNTY‼️
SLAVA UKRAINI 🇩🇰🫡🇺🇦
Former Trump White House lawyer Ty Cobb on Trump earning over $1 billion last year from crypto ventures: “We are seeing the greatest onslaught of corruption in the history of mankind.”
The Constitution barely survived today.
By a 5-4 vote, Trump’s Supreme Court declined to let him rewrite the Constitution and end birthright citizenship.
We’re hanging on by a thread. The fight to defend our democracy is far from over.
Last night, our long-range sanctions targeted the occupiers’ military logistics, oil industry, and air defense. All of this is a just response to Russia’s brutal attacks against our people. I thank the warriors of the Security Service of Ukraine, the Unmanned Systems Forces, the Defense Intelligence of Ukraine, and the Special Operations Forces for their successful work at a distance of about 300 kilometers from the frontline.
Facilities on both sides of the Crimean Bridge were hit: maritime logistics used to transport oil in the Krasnodar region and an oil depot in temporarily occupied Kerch. In addition, military logistics facilities were successfully struck, along with four radar stations belonging to S-400 systems and two Pantsir systems.
I am grateful to all our warriors for their precision and professionalism. Russia understands only strength, and our long-range strength is certainly working for peace. Glory to Ukraine!
SNYDER: Ukraine is not member of NATO, but Ukraine is doing all of the work of NATO right now only with its own armed forces.
Ukraine is basically fulfilling the entire mission of NATO, with help of course, but not with anybody else's soldiers.
We've essentially gotten used to the idea, all the countries in the region have now gotten used to Ukraine defending them.
And if Ukraine loses the war, then Russian aggression towards not just Baltic states but Poland and Romania becomes quite possible.
And if we take that for granted, if we let Ukraine down, if Ukraine were actually to lose this war, then Russia would digest important economic gains, territorial gains, technological gains, and sadly also demographic gains, which would make it qualitatively greater threat to Romania.
And Russian victory in Ukraine would also be, if not a death blow, then certainly a very heavy blow to NATO itself, leaving Romania much more likely to be isolated when it's facing Russia, which, I don't have to tell you, has historically not been a great situation for Romania.
And just like that, it completely VANISHED from the media.
But a sitting congressman, Ted Lieu, said on the Epstein Files a being blocked because they prove Trump raped and threatened to kill children.
Who wants to make this go viral AF?
ZELENSKYY: Russia is paying for continuing this war with losses of at least 30,000 soldiers every month on the front line. This number will only grow as we improve our ability to stop Russian attacks. Our drones showing strong results, our army fighting effectively and bravely.
How the fuck do we have $300 billion to rebuild Iran after we spent $80 billion bombing it, when we don’t “have the money” for pediatric cancer research?
TRUMP: You know what the Iranians did? They laughed at Obama and they said he's a stupid son of a bitch.
Sorry, Donald. Iran is laughing at YOU, as is the rest of the world.
Who agrees?
SEN. KELLY: Ukraine is not asking us to fight with them with U.S. troops on the ground in Ukraine. They’re asking for help with equipment.
We want Russia to lose. I want Russia to lose badly. I want Ukraine to win. Best way to achieve that is to give them assistance they need.
Today, my wife & I joined Donald Trump’s hit list. He has directed his Department of Justice to investigate us. They have not found a crime - they are simply trying to find one.
He isn't coming after me because of mean tweets, but because I am considering running for President.
He hates that I consistently call him out. He is simply the most corrupt President in American history.
We have nothing to hide.
Mr. President, come after me. I am not going anywhere.
The country is watching.
O'BRIEN: Trump believed Ukraine had no cards, that he could bully Ukrainians into giving Putin very good deal.
He didn't understand that Ukraine was developing their own capabilities and their willingness to fight.
So, Trump failed for two reasons. First, Ukrainians adapted, and that wasn't expected by him.
You can see there have been some changes in his rhetoric lately, where he has to grudgingly admit that Ukraine has actually done better.
The United States completely underestimated Ukrainian resilience.
Secondly, Trump thought Europeans would bully Ukraine along with him because they would be afraid of United States leaving NATO.
He thought he could use NATO to push Europeans to force Ukraine to take a bad deal. Europeans eventually helped Ukraine more than he thought.
They seem to understand that it's actually better for them to have Ukraine fight the war the way Ukraine wants.
Trump didn't understand what Ukraine was capable of and he misjudged what Europeans would do.
Reporter: ''So you agree that people who break in and vandalize a building should be prosecuted?''
JD Vance: ''Yes'' Reporter: ''Ok, I'm just checking, because you helped raise money for people who did so on January 6th''
JD's Soul Leaves his Body.
Republicans are in charge because we promised:
to Make America Healthy Again.
to start No New Wars,
to put people above corporations,
to put America above foreign countries,
to release the Epstein files,
to not spy on citizens,
to eliminate fraud,
what the hell happened?!
