A brief report from 🇬🇪: We (civil society, opposition, president & intl. observers) are now certain that the election was not just rigged, but stolen. Now, how did this happen 🧵
An open letter to the "Genocide Joe" crowd:
Biden is not the President of Israel or CiC of the IDF. He doesn't control Israeli foreign policy nor its military.
The man who does, Bibi Netanyahu, is a far-right fascist actively hurting Biden and trying to elect Donald Trump. 1/
As you watch the Aurora this evening, it’s worth reflecting that you’re getting a rare direct glimpse of the power of Nature. Those charged particles causing the atmosphere to glow came from a sunspot complex 17 times the diameter of Earth and traveled across 90 million miles at a million miles an hour. Without our magnetic field to protect us, our atmosphere would have been lost to space long ago. Those colours in the sky are Nature reminding us that we’re very lucky to be here amidst the violence. And perhaps therefore also reminding us not to shite it all up :-)
I receive a lot of kind messages during air raid alerts and I'm very pleased to feel your concern, but let me explain to you what the missile attack on Kharkiv means. Most often, an explosion is heard even before or a few seconds after the air raid alarm. The S-300 missile fired from Belgorod (russia) strikes Kharkiv in 40-60 seconds. People don't have the physical ability to react so quickly (especially considering that the russians launch missile strikes most often at night), get dressed and run for shelter, which is not always around. Only a metro and a bomb shelter can save a life, an ordinary basement can become a grave. Also, because the missile's flight time is so short, the air defense has no way to shoot it down, at least for now. Modern air defense and the elimination of launchers that bring death will be able to protect Kharkiv and its residents. But until this happens, people here continue to live in fear, not knowing what the next air raid signal will bring, today here were 5 such signals…
NEW: If I am reading this right, Judge Engoron has found that Donald Trump committed fraud and has ordered the cancellation of all of his New York business certificates and the dissolution of the Trump Organization.
I love it how the whole of Russian Z-snakepit is now twisting hands in its dramatic rant:
"The Motherland is in danger, the Russian blood is being spilled, and a civil war is underway now"
"There's now fratricide, a stab in the back upon the regular military that is heroically holding on to the front line amid overwhelming assaults"
"In the gruesome hour of hardship and trouble, men of honor need to show their integrity and save our common Mother Russia, which is waging a sacred defensive war with the most evil enemy."
"No matter what happens now in Moscow, dear brothers, keep killing those hohols with anything you have in your hands. There's nothing more important than Russia."
You bunch of sorry-ass morons, with your delusional dictator obsessed with his wretched ego and idiotic pseudo-historic conspiracy theories, unleashed the biggest war of aggression in Europe since Adolf Hitler.
Because you thought you are here to rule the world, you were entitled to anything you want, and there was no one to say no and fight back.
You were sure you were going to have breakfast in Kyiv and then dine in Lviv, just like that.
As a result, some 16 months ago, you sustained a stunning, humiliating defeat in what was one of the lamest, most incompetent, and overconfident attempts to run a blitzkrieg operation against a large European nation.
You continued in the most absurd way possible, simply sweeping cities off the face of the earth only for the sake of declaring them "liberated" and claiming yet another "major victory over Nazis and NATO" in capturing yet another hog farm lost somewhere in Luhansk Oblast.
For many months, you were fighting your senseless 10-day "special military operation" the way not a single military power or a nation can afford with such gains.
Just for the sake of never admitting defeat, you did and normalized the most unimaginable things for the 21st century.
Atrocities and mass graves, masses of suicidal prisoners sent to die in meat grinder assaults, castration, beheading, mutilation, the leveling of major cities full of the civilian population, nuclear threats, bombing campaigns to strip a European nation of heating and electricity in the middle of winter, the worst man-made ecological disaster since Chornobyl, the unprecedented occupation and militarization of the biggest European nuclear power plant.
You sustained the most unbelievable failures that completely revealed what was underneath all those years of propagandistic bravado and eye-washing.
You turned the whole of Donbas into a depopulated desert of ruins and fields of dead bodies scattered as far as the eye can see. You senselessly slaughtered countless thousands of forcibly mobilized males of Donbas who were naive and foolish enough to trust and welcome you in 2014.
For your idiotic war that has no goal and no plan other than letting Putin sit on the throne for just another day, you raised a monster -- a giant mercenary army, the meat-grinding machine that is now strong and bold enough to turn its jaws against you.
Now you poor pieces of Nazi scum, enjoy drowning in the pile of shit of your own making.
You are done.
Ukraine was your end.
You had it coming.
And history will remember this as the most insanely idiotic war ever.
I LITERALLY stopped working on my memo so I could read this indictment.
I am on page 24 and JESUS LUPITA NYONG'O CHRIST.
HOW this man still has the capacity to shock me after everything that's happened, i'll never know.
but I am sitting here *STUNNED*.

So, Republicans don’t trust teachers enough to let them talk about race, sexual orientation, gender, menstrual cycles or slavery, but they trust them enough to carry a gun?

🚨MAJOR BREAKING: Donald Trump has officially been INDICTED by a Manhattan grand jury on criminal charges relating to his illegal hush-money payment to Stormy Daniels.
Trump is the FIRST president in U.S. history to be indicted. He’ll soon be booked, fingerprinted and have his mug shot taken when he’s processed by law enforcement.
Trump is an absolute DISGRACE to our country.

I know totalitarianism,
I know socialism, I know communism. We have no socialism here,(except for those too big to fail), we certainly have no communism but man- at this rate we are but 1 election away from having totalitarianism. We prevailed.
Let’s keep it going! Go Raphael:)!
Apparently, @Twitter has suspended extremist accounts from the Balkans, who have been peddling Russian disinformation and polarizing the Balkans for years.
@TheOliverStone JFC, that's pure RU propaganda, just check his "sources" and "references" FFS! After ten minutes of cross referencing that sh.t even an imbecile can deduct that. STOP SHILLING FOR WAR CRIMINALS! What have they got on you?
