mayor for 4 election periods, 2 companies, widow since 2014, retired after working 14/7 for 28 years in peace and then 8 years in the world’s conflict areas
@Suzierizzo1 Soooo very disturbing what they think they are entitled to do out in the open now … The Land of the free???? Not anymore. The land of the brave??? That remains to be seen…
Every time Ukrainian Defenders return from Russian captivity, they cross the border singing Ukraine's national anthem with tears in their eyes.
Welcome home, Warriors! 🇺🇦

Today, no one on Earth can say that we are not fighting for Crimea or that we have forgotten about Crimea. Every day proves that Ukraine remembers every part of its land, every one of its people, and is truly fighting to ensure justice for our entire state and every integral part of it.
Russia brought its war to Ukraine, starting nowhere other than Crimea, and now, with our actions – medium-range sanctions against the Russian occupier, our long-range sanctions plan, and all other forms of pressure on the aggressor – we are doing everything to force Russia to end the war and restore justice. And it is Crimea that is at the center of this policy of ensuring justice. Russia turned Crimea into a launchpad for aggressive operations against other parts of our country and against other nations. For a very long time, Russia has tried to normalize its war – to make Ukraine, all of Europe, and the world accept that its aggression supposedly cannot be stopped and that justice supposedly cannot be restored.
Today, Ukraine is depriving Russia of this launchpad and drawing a line under its attempts to normalize war. And in doing so, we remember that justice for Ukraine also means justice for the Crimean Tatar people – a people forced to endure deportation and decades of oppression, a people who were able to return to their homeland, but whose home the Russians tried to steal again, a people who have preserved their vitality and remain an inseparable part of our society.
Today, as we honor the blue banner with the golden tamğa – this proud flag that unites the entire Crimean Tatar people – we affirm that Ukraine is fighting for itself and all its lands, defending justice for itself and all its people – for everyone who calls Ukraine and our Crimea their home. We must stop Russian aggression. We must bring freedom back to all those who are currently in Russian captivity. We must guarantee security and a reliable peace for the entirety of our state and all our people.
Qırımtatar Milliy Bayraq künü hayırlı olsun!
Glory to Ukraine!
ICE throw tear gas canisters at the feet of U.S. citizens protesting—at point blank range.

France's Foreign Minister put it well:
A strike on the Lavra is the equivalent of bombing Notre-Dame.
This is what russia calls defending Christianity.
Chancellor Merz:
Today, together with President Zelenskyy, we informed the American president that we are ready for peace talks, but these talks must begin on the right foot.
Russia's demand that Ukraine relinquish the free part of the Donbas is and remains unacceptable.
I am grateful to Canada for its new package of sanctions against more than 160 entities linked to Russia’s shadow fleet. Today, during our meeting with @MarkJCarney, we discussed strengthening sanctions pressure on Russia. And it is important that such decisions are being made.
We also discussed formats of defense cooperation, Canada’s participation in financing the production of Ukrainian drones under the Danish model, and cooperation in the energy sector. Importantly, Canada will continue to provide Ukraine with energy support and assistance in recovery.
I thank Mark for his strong position during the G7–Ukraine meeting and for all the support for our people. We truly have strong allies and the Prime Minister’s significant personal engagement in supporting Ukraine. And this is highly valuable.

DONALD TRUMP & JEFFREY EPSTEIN ARE SEX TRAFFICKERS and I’m gonna post this every day so nobody forgets exactly who these monsters are and why the incriminating portions of The Epstein Files have suddenly disappeared.
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.
A 1-year-old child is dead after police officers in Mississippi opened fire on a vehicle in a crowded Walmart parking lot in Senatobia. His mother, who has not been charged with any crime, says she was trying to communicate to officers that there was a baby in the car. They fired anyway, leading to the death of an innocent 1-year-old. We intend to seek justice for baby Kohen and the life that was stolen from him.
In Warsaw, sting stopped a concert and addressed the audience: "the war in Ukraine is an absurdity built on lies. If we swallow this lie, it will eat us up. But lies are terribly afraid of the truth. The truth must be heard. We can't lose this battle." Ukraine will win."
Oversight and Judiciary Dems visited Ghislaine Maxwell’s prison today, it is essentially a pristine park with fountains and ample green space. She’s the only convicted sex offender there. Why did @DAGToddBlanche move her here? This isn’t justice.
Volodymyr Zelenskyy and Emmanuel Macron are among the most prominent political figures in Europe today.
What is your opinion of them?
🅰️ Two strong leaders
🅱️ Two Idiots

Prove me wrong. I'll wait.
🚨 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.
