Elon Musk has done to x what he did to starlink. That’s why pro Ukraine posts get almost no coverage

Um homem como Flávio Bolsonaro não pode representar o Brasil. Nosso país é muito melhor do que isso. Justiça por Ana Clara. ✊🏽

"How Zelensky lost Trump" writes russian-born Julia with her ass in NY, away from the war. She can't remember that Trump doesn't allow Ukraine to build Patriots, that he has cut off all military/humanitarian aid since 2025, while russian bombs kill about 20 civilians every day.

Domingo é dia de decidir o futuro do Brasil. De escolher entre a democracia e o retrocesso, entre seguir avançando com o povo ou entregar o país a quem ameaça nossas conquistas.

Minha história de luta se conecta com a história de milhões de brasileiros. De quem começou a trabalhar aos 12 anos e chegou à Presidência sem esquecer de onde vim nem para quem governo.

Agora, essa decisão está nas mãos de cada um vocês. No domingo, vote pela democracia.

Vote pelo Brasil. Vote 13! 🇧🇷

[Lula @LulaOficial]

Trabalhadores e trabalhadoras do Brasil, uni-vos.

Nós merecemos respeito.

@UriBruguera Cool.

I have never been to an Oasis concert and never will.

But can't wait for Fontaine DC in Barcelona soon.

Third concert I'll go to.

The haters can enjoy their Fake Beatles all they want.

🔴Ed Power: Liam Gallagher has accused Fontaines DC of ‘not being good enough’ to open for them despite releasing five dud-free albums while Oasis rack up a fortune as a nostalgia jukebox for Gen-Xers

They say your investigation is theirs.

[Conor Gallagher @ConorGallaghe_r]

At the @iiea today, EU sanctions chief David O'Sullivan was asked about our investigation into Aughinish Alumina. He said Irish alumina “undoubtedly” ended up supplying, at least in part, the Russia's military. “I think there's no doubt the investigative journalists got it right”

@ninasnsv69 @UriBruguera @JoyceGomez677 Thanks, all sorted.

[Jeff Farrell @JeffFarrellNews]

@UriBruguera All sorted, cheers.

@aoifetheechpmnk @LTCKilgore @rtenews That's the parents' job.

And they don't ask for taxpayers' money to do it.

The GRU hacked into Jared Kushner's iPhone. Dutch military intelligence (MIVD) then recruited a GRU spy who gave them access to the hacked phone. What MIVD discovered was that Kushner had access to two bank accounts --one Azerbaijani, the other Israeli --where Saudi Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman and Emirati ruler Mohammed bin Zayed deposited money. It sounds like a slightly far-fetched episode of "Slow Horses," but it's real. And it proves just how eye-poppingly corrupt this administration was and continues to be as its "special envoy" decides the fate of tens of millions in Europe in the Middle East. Simply incredible reporting by Matthew Cole, drawn from his new book on Kushner. https://t.co/8AyV60gg1X

@LTCKilgore @rtenews I am furious.

Want to see the actual sum published though.

[Jeff Farrell @JeffFarrellNews]

@kenoflynnTD We want a head.

And our money back.

Ukraine these days is winning on the frontline.

The media don't report that much.

[Volodymyr Zelenskyy / Володимир Зеленський @ZelenskyyUa]

Of course, we are not losing this war. But we are losing people. Because of the Russian attacks, we're losing people and time. It's such a pity, because our children don't have a real life and childhood. Not only children, but all people. That's why we need to end this war as quickly as possible. I hope that our partners, Americans and Europeans, will help us. God bless, our strong soldiers stay strong on the battlefield. It helps me stay strong during any kind of negotiations.

I missed Ocean Colour Scene's recent show in Malaga.

Because they started on time at 8pm.

What credible rock band starts on time...

When I turned up at 9.30pm the band was outside the venue doing autographs for fans.
