CONFIRMED: Democrat Scott Colom has beaten incumbent Republican Senator Cindy Hyde-Smith in Mississippi, which Trump won by 23 points in 2024. He will be the first Black senator elected in Mississippi since the Reconstruction era of the late 1860s/early 1870s — and the first Democrat from the state headed to the Senate in 44 years. Remarkable result.

Putin's plan is becoming clearer and clearer. And it's diabolical

“Of course, at first they fed the backward population some so-called special military operation through television, with ridiculous excuses about denazification,” says Alexander Nevzorov.

But the monster's real goal is not Ukrainian territory, cities or natural resources.

Putin has no interest in civilisation, Nevzorov says. Just look at how ruthlessly the Russian army is destroying Ukrainian cities: Putin has no intention of preserving them.

All he wants is herds of people he can line up, arm and use as a battering ram to bring Eastern European countries back under Russian control and restore the USSR.

🚨MAJOR BREAKING: White House counsel Will Scharf has sent a threatening letter to incoming House Oversight chair Robert Garcia warning he would be investigated himself if he continues to subpoena Trump officials.

Oversight’s response: “It appears Donald Trump has something to hide.”

Here’s the relevant text of the White House letter:

"Beyond being inconsistent with the clear, well-recognized constitutional limitations on your
investigative functions, threats to executive branch officials designed to deter them from public service, or process designed merely to abuse or instill fear in the recipient may cross the line into blatant criminality. And issuing unlawful subpoenas with the intention of depriving citizens of their constitutional rights and privileges may warrant further investigation."

And Oversight’s response:

“Today, Rep. Robert Garcia, Ranking Member of the House Committee on Oversight and Government Reform, released the following statement after the White House sent a letter to Oversight Democrats threatening to infringe upon the Committee's constitutionally protected right to conduct congressional oversight.

"It appears Donald Trump has something to hide. Let's be clear: Congress' authority comes from Article I of the Constitution, not from the permission of the White House. Congress has wide latitude to conduct investigations and oversight, an authority inherent in the power to legislate.

The American people voted overwhelmingly for us to pass laws to root out corruption and abuse. The Trump Administration continues to weaponize the government with threats of unconstitutional attacks on Congress. We are a coequal branch of government and will not be deterred by baseless threats from a weaponized DOJ or from the President's lawyers."

The Russians know that they have Trump in their pocket, pushing their interests and serving their needs. The amazing thing is that the press still reports these talks as if the US wants to help negotiate or reach a deal. The Trump administration wants Russia to win.

[Michael McFaul @McFaul]

This is a threat about imperial conquest.

Putin has not changed his position one iota. On the contrary, he has expanded his war aims since negotiating with the Trump team.

This corrupt clown could finally go to jail for a long time.

Many remember the December 2021 🇷🇺 proposals on European security rolling back NATO. I also remember previous 🇷🇺 attempts to revise agreed European security order by deleting everything in Helsinki agreement and Paris charter concerning democracy and human rights.

Their fear at the time wasn’t Nato - it was the fear of color revolutions bringing demands for democracy even closer to Moscow itself. That was their real security fear.

Their repeated attempt at revisions didn’t fly with us other Europeans - needless to say.

[Nicolas Tenzer @NTenzer]

Exactly.
1. Ceding the Donbas would not curb russia’s ambitions;
2. It is a crucial line of defense for Ukraine;
3. In these territories, russia is committing torture, murder, rape, and deportations;
4. International law matters.
This is non-negotiable.
russia must be defeated.

Ukraine says it captured first Indonesian prisoner of war

Ukraine said on November 11, 2026 that it captured its first Indonesian prisoner of war, a 49-year-old man from Java, according to Ukraine's state-run I Want to Live project. The project said 283 Indonesians were recruited in the first nine months of 2026 to fight for Russia, against no more than 10 in the previous three years. https://t.co/NlcFwd7qC2

🇷🇺 Putin’s madness is destroying Russia.

Russian war deaths are already at over 400,000.

Moscow has depleted over half its sovereign wealth fund’s liquid reserves.

All to finance a deficit above 3% with no economic growth.

Now he is going to steal $40bn in pension savings to keep paying for the war.

Apart from energy and weapons, every other sector is dying.

Some Russian bankers warned about this, and they were all dismissed.

Hundreds of thousands of young people have fled, and thousands more soldiers die every month.

Putin’s imperial ambitions are killing Russia and its future.

The Kremlin-backed Trump regime has allied the United States with enemy Russia. This is treason.

Democrats in Congress must break this Axis of Evil, forge a powerful alliance with defender Ukraine, and recommit to NATO – the bedrock of U.S. national security.

[Sulkhan Metreveli @Sulkhan]

To everyone who says Russia just wants security:

Georgia wasn't in NATO in 2008. It had no army that could threaten Moscow. Russia invaded anyway, and it still occupies a fifth of Georgia's land.

Security was never the point. Land was.

[Anton Gerashchenko @Gerashchenko_en]

Russian Z-propagandist Simonyan called Ukraine a "cancerous tumor" and said "nothing can be preserved, you just have to pound away until nothing is left."

Russia's desire for genocide aginst Ukrainians is well-known.
I'm sharing this to show it still persists.
