Losing just one of these 6 seats would be a catastrophic blow to our Senate majority. From Montana to Nevada, Democratic candidates need our support to combat far-right challengers. Could you spare $24 to defend our narrow majority?
Always a good day to remember that Donald Trump tried to overthrow the republic because the people shitcanned him after one term. Sad. And every Republican now supports that attempted coup. Sad.
Compare the question Trump was asked by the press corps in the courtroom hallway — and his answer — with the language of the gag order against him. #directing
@depthsofwiki I had forgotten I wrote -- or started -- that article. But none of the original content appears to have survived over the interceding 21 years, so maybe I didn't write it any more.
Russia is planning to auction Aivazovsky’s painting “Moonlight Night”. This canvas was among 52 paintings that were illegally transferred to the Simferopol Art Museum in Crimea. In 2017, @INTERPOL_HQ, at the request of @Crimea_Prok, put the paintings on the international wanted list. Thus, Russia openly disregards #InternationalLaw, as acc. to the 1970 @UNESCO Convention, the export of #CulturalProperties & transfer of ownership is prohibited.
🌏Our engagement has reached 10.000.000! Ten million is equivalent to the total numbers of all Mongols in the world. I also appreciate gaining 13.000 or more new followers in just two days. Let's keep rolling together.
Арван сая гаруй хүнд хэдий нь хүрчээ. 10.000.000 гэдэг бол дэлхийн нийт монголчуудын тоо гэсэн үг. Хоёрхон хоногт 13.000 илүү нэмэгдсэн шинэ дагагч нартаа баярлалаа. Хамтдаа зүтгээд байж дээ🌎
On the Left Bank of the Dnieper, they captured several Russians.
One of them had a serious abdominal wound.
Paramedic Grek checked:"not long left, soon will die."
We got into boats and started sailing to the right bank. The wounded occupant began to scream furiously in pain.
"Let me go back and inject him with morphine," Greg said to the commander. Arta shot, and it was actually suicide to return to the shore.
He's back. I injected morphine into an enemy who, a few minutes ago, could have aimed specifically at him.
When he finally reached the opposite bank, the brothers asked, " Greg, Why did you do this? This is the enemy who tried to kill you."
"Because he is also a man," Greg replied.
Grigory Tsekhmistrenko, a guy with a Canadian passport and a Ukrainian heart, died on the night of January 15, 2023.
Today, to remember him, his friends, relatives, and colleagues gathered in Kiev.
Irrationally human, sacrificial and kind.
Everyone talked about him, not because it is not customary to say bad things about the dead.
But because he helped the homeless on the streets and even made the last minutes of the Russian's life painless. Because I felt that way. It seemed right to him.
I know that it is unacceptable to talk about such things now, because we are all rightly charged with hatred for Russians.
But then I met Grisha.
Unfortunately, I met him after his death.
To convince me that humanity is not a weakness, but a strength.
And that in the terrible inhumane conditions of war, there are people who are able to preserve this humanity.
Kherson region.
Photos from Russian military personnel. Two D-30 howitzers had a shell burst in the barrel, the result is visible in the photo.
Most likely, shells of this quality can only come from North Korea.

And if you think there is not a quid pro quo involved in refusing to fund Ukraine, I've got some Bill Barr propaganda about what the Mueller Report actually showed
Trump—the entire GOP—is making a deal with Russia to get Trump reelected

After 9 years, 9 months, 13 days, Ukraine remains the sole fighting defender of Western civilization against Russian fascist aggression.
Now, Ukraine is also beset with enemies in Poland, Slovakia and Hungary who have closed the borders and a dysfunctional American government.
Today, #Russia's Supreme Court has declared what it calls "the international LGBT public movement" an extremist organisation and banned its activities across the country.
