Thank you 😊 for defending Europe 🌍

For nearly four years I've dedicated every day to one goal: making sure russian invaders never go home to their kids.

Never walk. Never breathe again.

I'm proud of what we have achieved with Ukrainian defenders and our supporters, at least 1,000 fewer orcs on this earth.

A grown white man stood on the grounds of the White House, with a microphone in his hand, and the best thing he could think to do was repeat a tired, racist conspiracy theory about Michelle Obama. Nothing remotely intelligent, just the same old garbage that has circulated among racist corners of the internet for years.

Imagine winning a fight and then immediately reminding the world that you have the intellectual depth of a puddle. Josh Hokit didn’t expose Michelle Obama. He exposed himself.

Michelle Obama is a Princeton graduate. A Harvard Law graduate. An attorney. A bestselling author. A former First Lady of the United States. One of the most admired women in the world. Her accomplishments will be remembered long after people forget the name of the fighter who decided to embarrass himself for applause.

What makes this even worse is that it happened at the White House, and when given the opportunity to condemn it, the Trump White House refused. That tells you everything you need to know. This is the same political culture that has repeatedly tolerated racist attacks on the Obamas, trafficked in dehumanizing imagery, and winked at the worst instincts of its supporters. The silence was not an oversight. It was a statement.

Notice how quickly maganuts rush to defend Melaria Trump whenever anyone says anything remotely critical about her. They demand civility and want respect for the office of First Lady. But when Michelle Obama is targeted with racist, sexist, and dehumanizing lies, they become strangely silent. Their outrage is selective. Their principles are conditional. Their hypocrisy is obvious.

Michelle Obama does not need validation from Josh Hokit, Donald Trump, or anyone else occupying the comment section of American politics. She has already established who she is through her character, intellect, accomplishments, grace, and service. The truth is that Michelle Obama represents everything that terrifies certain people: a brilliant Black woman who cannot be diminished, intimidated, or erased.

Michelle Obama is a beautiful Black woman. She is an accomplished Black woman. she is a brilliant Black woman. She is a respected Black woman. And every racist fool who thinks otherwise can go straight to hades.

History will remember Michelle Obama. History will remember Barack Obama. History will remember the progress they represented. As for the people who spend their time recycling racist conspiracy theories posting memes, depicting them as animals, history has a place for them too. It just isn’t where they think it is.

BREAKING: FBI Director accused of BLOWING UP a sealed terror probe with one reckless social media post.

Kash Patel just may have SABOTAGED an active counterterrorism investigation into a drone plot against the White House — because he couldn't resist posting about it on social media first.

According to MS Now's Ken Dilanian, Secret Service officials are FURIOUS that the FBI director prematurely announced details of a SEALED, ONGOING criminal investigation into a plot to attack this weekend's UFC event with drones — and possibly snipers — on the White House South Lawn.

Here's why this is so dangerous: at the time Patel ran to social media to brag, the case was sealed in court and roughly TEN suspects had NOT yet been arrested. The Secret Service and FBI had been working the case together, and had planned to make more arrests, unseal the case later that afternoon, and issue a JOINT statement.

Patel torched all of it for a Twitter post.

"We all woke up this morning to see this on Twitter," one stunned administration official said.

The plot was uncovered when a relative of one suspect contacted Cincinnati-area police, reporting their family member was talking about a vague plot in DC. A Secret Service threat team, with FBI help, subpoenaed an encrypted Signal chat and identified the conspirators discussing drones and snipers. One suspect was arrested June 13th, and the case was IMMEDIATELY sealed so investigators could find and arrest the others.

Then Patel blew the operation wide open.

Secret Service Deputy Director Matt Quinn called Patel out at a Tuesday news conference — pointedly without naming him: "I learned early in my career a phrase: 'Don't choke on your own smoke.'" Quinn emphasized the Secret Service "led that investigation from the beginning" and that they "chose NOT to leak it" to protect the investigation's integrity.

In other words, the FBI director endangered a terror probe and roughly ten un-arrested suspects to feed his own ego.

This is the same Patel accused of running a secret FBI slush fund to pay bonuses to MAGA loyalists, partying at the Olympics, and snorkeling over war graves. And now he can't keep a sealed terror case off Twitter.

The man is a danger to national security — all because of an overly inflated ego (to match his boss’s) and a disturbing lack of maturity and competence.

Please like and share if you think the FBI needs a new director with some actual law enforcement experience!

FIONA HILL: Putin is starting to get very nervous about Russian society and perhaps elites.

His choices are shrinking, and we can see that picture has become darker for Putin.

On the front line, his army cannot advance, casualties are enormous and increasing.

The other thing is oil. Everyone was expecting that Russia would have benefited enormously from the increase in oil prices.

But in fact, sanctions that were imposed by Europeans and Ukrainian attacks on Russian oil have actually constrained those revenues.

Revenue isn't the same as having more manpower or more weaponry, and he cannot turn the innovation tide against Ukraine.

It's still costly for Putin to buy from abroad, from China, the components that he or the military needs for their weapons development.

Putin is still trying to get others to hand him Ukraine's capitulation because situation for him doesn't look great.

Former deputy PM John Manley: We used to always refer to the president of the United States as the leader of the free world. Donald Trump is not the leader of anything other than about the 37% of Americans that still support him. If anything, intellectually at least, Mark Carney has become the leader of the free world, the countries that believe in democracy and the rule of law.

MS NOW EXCLUSIVE:

Kash Patel may have a 'personal slush fund' of taxpayer dollars to pay loyalist agents, according to Rep. Jamie Raskin.

Raskin is demanding documents from Patel — citing claims that $8,000 payments are made to agents who carry out "unlawful partisan and personal orders." https://t.co/ZOU8iRxj2u

Did you notice President Trump turning his back on Volodymyr Zelenskyy? 👀

[Guillermo Fierro @gbfierro]

Shitting on his pants 🩳🩳

[NEXTA @nexta_tv]

⚡️Lukashenko apologized to Zelensky for his harsh statements

“If Vladimir Alexandrovich was offended, I apologize to him for those words. Maybe I shouldn’t have said them, given that he is still at war. Moreover, he perfectly understands that from Belarus, and especially from me personally, no military actions should be expected.”

The Belarusian dictator also named the reasons why he does not want a war with Ukraine:

“Belarus (we understand this, which is why we do not want to fight) is very vulnerable militarily if Ukraine starts attacking Belarus the same way it attacks Russia. Because Belarus is like an open book to Ukrainian military forces. We fully understand that our main life-supporting facilities — industrial and logistical — will come under attack. As they stated, they already have 500 such targets planned on Belarusian territory.

The front for Russia, and therefore for us as well, if it were to attack Kyiv from Belarusian territory, would expand by 1,500 kilometers along the Belarus–Ukraine border. With the current course of the war, we and the Russians will not be able to secure this area.”

Lukashenko sees how effectively Ukrainian drones are “denazifying” Russia and wants to distance himself from that situation.

Trump froze funding for food banks, shelters and nonprofits for months. After pressure from Oversight Dems, FEMA confirmed the program is legitimate and will release the money. This is good news, but Americans deserve to know why these funds were held up in the first place.

Agriculture in Russia's Irkutsk region faces complete shutdown due to severe diesel shortages.

Regional MP and agriculture executive Frantenko warns: "We might as well just shut down in advance and not waste hundreds of millions, but simply prepare for the complete closure of the entire agriculture sector of the Irkutsk region. Yes, it sounds terrifying, it sounds unpleasant, but a fact remains a fact."

Fuel prices in key grain-producing regions of Russia have surpassed 100,000 rubles/ton, up from 55,000 in March. Local farmers note that at this fuel cost, grain production becomes completely unprofitable, as current wheat prices (approx. 9,000 rubles/ton) are twice lower than the required economic threshold.
