It’s hard to believe but this is a picture of the United States reflecting pool before the revolution happened. The US was once a very westernized country
Mitch McConnell trolled RBG on her death bed by releasing the list of nominees he intended to replace her with. He and Trump did that after she had ask McConnell as a personal favor, to wait until after the 2020 election had passed. I just thought you people should know that.
Ukraine has called on the International Maritime Organization to recognize vessels of the Russian "shadow fleet" as legitimate military targets – Financial Times.
Under the laws of war, merchant vessels in an international armed conflict (such as the Russia-Ukraine war) can become legitimate targets if they:
• Make an effective contribution to the adversary's military action, and
• Their destruction offers a clear military advantage.
This is precisely Ukraine's argument: the shadow fleet transports Russian oil in circumvention of sanctions, thereby directly financing the war.
Iran denied they requested talks with the US and said they will not be meeting with Witkoff and Kushner today despite Trump’s statements and stenographer reports in the media.
Four years ago today, Ukrainian forces drove Russian occupiers off Snake Island, reclaiming a vital foothold in the Black Sea. While the strategic outpost initially fell on day one of the full-scale invasion, the fierce defiance of its defenders captured the world’s attention and set the tone for Ukraine’s enduring resistance.

Hay una catástrofe humanitaria en curso. Cientos de miles de personas están alojadas en centros de refugiados o en la calle sin mas pertenencias que lo que llevaron puesto al evacuarse. La ineficiencia del chavismo está creando una tragedia sobre otra.
Putin’s Russia in the 21st century: The “second-best army in the world” has run out of fuel, and steam locomotives have been hauled out of the motherland’s reserves. 😂😂😂
Soon, they will likely be unpacking airships and horse-drawn carriages from the 1920s. The return to the USSR—so lauded by “patriots”—is proceeding at breakneck speed.

It’s important to understand that the Court is now just an arm of the oligarchy.
This decision strips the people of the right to limit the role of money in politics. It gives billionaires special rights to buy our elections. A precondition of oligarchy.
Today, Denmark’s Minister of Defense Jeppe Bruus is in Ukraine for the first time since his appointment. This is a very important signal of support for our people.
We discussed preparations for the Drone Deal. Our teams have been working on the agreement, and it is almost ready. The Minister and I share the view that the Drone Deal between Ukraine and Denmark should be concluded as soon as possible. We paid special attention to joint work on anti-ballistic capabilities. Europe’s capabilities in this area must be strengthened.
We also discussed the contents of the next, already 30th, support package. I am grateful for the assurances that Denmark’s new government will continue its policy of strong support for Ukraine and our people.
Trump: E. Jean Carroll is not my type, trust me.
Prosecutor: Mr. Trump, who is the woman in this photo?
Trump: Oh, that’s my ex-wife, Marla.
Prosecutor: That’s E. Jean Carroll.
Trump: …………
1/ Five years into the full-scale war in Ukraine, the Russian army appears to be exhausted and in low morale. An account from a serving Russian soldier at the front line highlights the current mood of dejection and frustration with incompetent commanders. ⬇️
The sitting president of the United States had to pay $5 million to a woman he raped and defamed, and not one person in his entire cult of a party is calling for his resignation.
Not one.
Historian, James Holland: Ukraine can now isolate the battlefield. Anyone that moves gets killed. Supply lines attacked 25-50 miles behind the front — bridges, roads, assembly areas. Deep strikes into Russia's oil.
Putin can have a media blackout. He cannot hide that destruction. 1/
Ken Paxton was impeached for taking bribes from donors.
He became a multi-millionaire on a government salary.
He takes lavish vacations in Iceland while Texans can’t afford the basics.
Ken Paxton doesn’t serve us — he serves himself.
Russia's fuel crisis enters a best phase, with truckers abandoning loads on the highway as they run out of gas.
Luckily, Russians aren't known for mass looting and violence, so everything will be ok.
There’s a reason nobody is at the 50 state fair in DC, and a reason it’s worth pointing out. Trump took over America 250, a bipartisan organization that’s been around a few years planning these events, and turned this into a celebration of himself. I mean, in an opening speech they said “libtards.” So when you have a 30 percent approval, most Americans are going to tune out. FAFO
