Semi retired creative professional, Mum, Nana, non political until Trump woke me the fuck up. I knocked on doors for Bernie and will NEVER not vote again.
Mamdani: We're a city of 8.5 million people, biggest city in the country. More than 3 million New Yorkers were born outside of this country. And so they bring with them both that love of this country and the roots of where they come from. And in the world cup, feels like every team is playing at home.
It's a beautiful moment because New Yorkers feel like they can be their full selves. And even today you saw Morocco beat Canada three zero… You'd have thought you were in Morocco
Two hundred and fifty years ago, a group of Americans signed their names to a piece of parchment and made a promise no nation had ever made before: that we're all created equal, endowed by our Creator with unalienable rights — life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness.
We're the only nation in history built not on ethnicity, or blood, or geography but on an idea. That's always been what makes us exceptional. We chose that path 250 years ago but that’s where the work began, not where it ended. Every generation has had to choose it again. At Valley Forge, at Gettysburg, on the beaches of Normandy, in the streets of Selma. Americans recommitted themselves to the principles on which our nation was founded.
Now it's our turn.
There's nothing guaranteed about our democracy. We have to fight for it, defend it, and earn it. Over and over, year after year. That's not a burden. That's what it means to be an American.
250 years in, we still haven't fully lived up to those words in the Declaration. But we've never walked away from them, and this July 4, I hope all of us can commit to one thing: that we never will. I don't believe we're as divided as we're told we are. I've bet my whole life on the American people, and I'm not stopping now.
Happy 250th birthday, America. Our story isn't finished. Let's keep writing it together.
You asked me to find some positive news from Ukraine for you.
I found some!
The bottom of the Kakhovka Reservoir, which was drained after Russians destroyed the Kakhovka Hydroelectric Power Plant dam, is now covered with willows that have already grown 7-9 meters tall. Birds and animals are beginning to settle in this new forest.
In May, zoologist Oleksii Vasyliuk visited the bottom of the former Kakhovka Reservoir nine times and recorded a huge number of nightingales and warblers.
"I have never heard so many nightingales at once anywhere else. This may be the largest nightingale forest in Europe," Oleksii Vasyliuk said.
⚡️Bravo!!!
Zelensky: “Every pure heart in the world is waiting for just one thing from Ukraine — that we defeat this Russian scum”
“Despite having fewer means and, frankly, fewer resources, Ukrainians have achieved more tangible results and earned more reasons to be proud.They have every right to be proud of themselves.That is absolutely justified, because they are defending what is theirs.That is why Ukrainians are respected all over the world.”
Together with the other branches of Ukraine's Defense and Security Forces, the Ukrainian Navy has achieved what many believed was impossible. Russia has lost the Black Sea. Beginning with the liberation of Zmiinyi Island and continuing through our operations against the Russian fleet, ports, and the occupying forces in our Crimea, we keep proving that this region – the Black Sea region and the Sea of Azov region – will never be a place of peace and quiet for Russia.
On the eve of Ukrainian Navy Day, I honored our warriors defending Ukraine as part of our Naval Forces. I presented the battle flag and the ribbons “For Courage and Bravery” to Navy military units. I thank everyone for their service.
And today, on the occasion of this year's Ukrainian Navy Day – and as a sign of respect and gratitude to our Naval Forces – I have made a decision for the future of Ukraine's Naval Forces and for the future of our Odesa. The decision to establish our own strong new Naval Academy in Odesa. I know this is something our Naval Forces need. We have the capacity to make it happen, and, most importantly, our cadets and our young people have the desire to serve Ukraine and defend Ukraine. We will definitely accomplish all our tasks.
Phang: Blanche maintains that FOIA was my only and remains my only option. And then he has the balls to say the following. He says that my lawsuit "threatens the interdependence and the reciprocity between Congress and the executive branch." You know, folks, last I checked, I don't see a lot of interdependence or reciprocity between Congress and the executive branch.
What I have seen, I've seen people like Todd Blanche, Pammy Jo with the bad hair, Kash Patel, Susie Wiles, JD Vance, and others, assembling repeatedly in the Situation Room at the White House with Todd Blanche quarterbacking strategy on how to avoid turning over the Epstein files to the American people.
Does that sound like interdependence or reciprocity?
Gavin Newsom on Trump: “He works for one man. That one man has added $4B to his personal fortune while sitting in what is supposed to be a public trust. He told you he was gonna drain the swamp. He didn’t drain the swamp, he gave it a presidential suite with gold leaf. This is a corruption story, this is a heist. This is one man trying to do to our American self government what no king or no foreign power has ever managed to do. And the question is whether we will let him”
Everyone should pay attention to Albania right now. The revolution is starting there.
Albania just rejected Zionism and Epstein Class.
Stand with you Albanians 🇦🇱
Very lucky to find this boy in time this week.
We’ve no idea how he ended up in there but he couldn’t get out. And it was heating up fast.
He’s with us recovering from serious wounds now. Possibly a dog fight and he staggered into the hole 😬
Brad Pitt holds a very special place in our hearts as the very first dog from Happy Doggo to move all the way to the USA. After being abandoned by his owners and surviving on his own for six months before our team found him, he is now living his true dream life. It has been almost three years since he moved in with his amazing new family, and he has fully embraced his new lifestyle. He is officially one of our most stylish boys and genuinely loves putting on a good outfit, even getting all dressed up to celebrate the 4th of July yesterday! Truly a superstar. 🇺🇸🎆❤️
@GeneralMCNews Now what? Probably nothing. Until someone, somewhere actually has the gumption to throw one of these law breakers in jail we remain screwed
🚨 BREAKING:
The US Military announced today the deaths of 4 pilots following an emergency landing on an aircraft carrier.
Are war losses being announced as accidents!?
【True Story】
The husband who danced every day for his wife who begged, "Let me die."
For his wife left paralyzed by a brain tumor, Mr. Deng spent their entire savings of 40 million yen on treatment and continued to encourage her with dance every day. In the end, after devoted caregiving, his wife miraculously recovered.
The irony of farmers in my home state ranting about the evils of "socialism" while they are standing in line for yet ANOTHER taxpayer funded handout because they voted 3 times for the asshole that destroyed their economy AGAIN is more irony than I can bear at this time.
🚨 BREAKING:
Jackie Chan says: "I watched a video recently. They asked a child: 'What do you want to be when you grow up?' He replied: 'Children here don't grow up.' Yes, this is Gaza and its children." 🇭🇰🇵🇸
