To understand the scale of today’s Russian crime against humanity’s historical heritage: it is the equivalent of bombing St. Peter’s Basilica in a war of conquest against Italy, or Notre-Dame de Paris against France, Westminster Abbey against Britain, or Aachen Cathedral.

🚨 Absolute madness in the US right now as the Uruguay national team gets pulled to the side of the road and treated like straight-up suspects.
They literally just landed for the World Cup and security is already ripping their luggage open on the tarmac with sniffer dogs everywhere
Qatar and Russia hosted without this level of paranoia but the "land of the free" is handing out pure humiliation to Global South athletes before a single match is even played, the double standards are screaming.
When Notre-Dame burned in 2019, the world stopped.
Today, Russia damages Kyiv Pechersk Lavra, a monastery nearly 1,000 years old and older than Notre-Dame itself.
A thousand years of history deserves the same attention, the same sympathy, and the same protection.
Right. Let’s examine the evidence presented here, because it is genuinely magnificent.
A country where roughly four percent of people own a passport has concluded, with total confidence, that it is the greatest civilisation in human history. And the proof? A European tourist enjoyed a Waffle House at one in the morning.
That’s it. That’s the smoking gun. Not life expectancy. Not healthcare. Not the small matter of $39 trillion in debt. No. A man who has actually seen the world found a 24-hour diner with laminated menus quite jolly, and somewhere in middle America a chap nearly wept with patriotic pride.
And he’s getting this from Fox News. Which is a bit like getting your restaurant recommendations from the man trying to sell you the restaurant. The entire network exists to convince Americans that everywhere else is a freezing Soviet breadline, so that none of them ever get curious enough to buy the passport and have a look. Tiny, sad flats. Depressing grocery stores. Described in vivid detail by a man who has, at a generous estimate, never been.
And here’s a detail nobody on that side seems keen to mention. This World Cup is the third in a row handed to a country with, shall we say, a complicated relationship with democracy. Russia. Qatar. And now America. FIFA does love a host that doesn’t ask too many awkward questions.
Here’s the bit he can’t quite process. We’ve been to America. That’s the whole point. We came, we saw, we had the hash browns, we got back on the plane, and we went home to the tiny sad flat with the universal healthcare and the six weeks holiday.
You don’t envy a place you’ve never seen. You envy a place you’ve seen and can’t get back to. And nobody is pressing their face against the glass trying to get back into a f Buc-ee’s.
"Sky News has verified the identities of everyone from the school who was killed. 120 students, 73 boys & 47 girls, aged from 6 to 13, & 26 teachers, who were killed in the strike".
@Chesh reports on the primary school bombed by the US. 120 children & 26 teachers, all murdered.
The White House was built to serve the American people.
Tonight it was used to promote a company the President owns stock in, sell subscriptions, promote corporate sponsors, push Trump crypto, and enrich the President and his family.
The founders warned us about kings enriching themselves from public office.
They did not fight a revolution for this.
The first thing Nigel Farage will introduce if he is elected is Health Insurance.
The NHS correctly costs £200bn a year.
In the USA Health Insurance is £14,000 a year per person
£14,000 x 50m adults is £700bn a year. £500bn a year profit
If you can't afford that you are dying
#Scotland — Neo-nazis carrying Israeli flags are trying to attack anti-racist demonstrators in Glasgow.
Yes, you heard that right: neo-nazis are now carrying Israeli flags.
This is Sarah Pochin - Reform UK MP for Runcorn - @SarahForRuncorn
Sarah doesn't want to see black or Asian people on her TV.
She said: “It drives me mad seeing adverts full of black and Asian people.”
This sort of racism is abhorrent, and she must resign.
RT if you agree.

The European mind understands it perfectly. This is what imperial decadence looks like: public institutions converted into branded spectacle, civic memory replaced by adrenaline theater, and the People’s House turned into a content backdrop for regime propaganda.
The joke is not that Europe cannot comprehend it. The joke is that America no longer recognizes what it is becoming.
