🚨I called it yesterday that there has been a noticeable change in attitude from the Irish government in recent days re Aughinish Alumina.
I think now I may know why.
Sweden is providing Intel.
Well done Sweden!
Christ. I did business in Russia for 15 years. I have made at least 50 trips there and speak Russian (very badly). MY children were born in Russia for God's sake. FACT: It is a third-world country striving to be second world. It is a strange and weird place. Nothing is as it seems. If she had to live there she would want out ASAP
We continue to apply Ukrainian long-range sanctions against Russian military facilities and the oil industry. In particular, last night Ukrainian FP-5 Flamingos struck a military plant in Cheboksary that supplies the occupier’s army with components for drones and missiles. I thank the Armed Forces of Ukraine for their precision! The Kuibyshev oil refinery in the Samara region was also hit last night. The distance from the frontline is more than 900 kilometers. I am grateful to the warriors of the Special Operations Forces, the Unmanned Systems Forces, and the Defense Intelligence of Ukraine. The entirely just responses of the Security Service of Ukraine also reached two oil infrastructure facilities in the Vladimir region, at a distance of 700 kilometers. I thank everyone who fights and works for Ukraine!
In today's #vatniksoup, I'll introduce a South African-American(!) businessman and social media figure, Elon Musk (@elonmusk). He's best-known for being the wealthiest man in the world, running Tesla Inc., SpaceX & Twitter, and for parroting Kremlin's propaganda narratives.

Chris Hayes: The president is rage posting about you. He calls you a loser in life, and he's mad that you wanted to impeach him.
Jamie Raskin: There's a very easy way to not get impeached. Stop committing impeachable offenses. Stop committing high crimes and misdemeanors.
The Pro-Russian AfD laughed when German chancellor Friedrich Merz praised the heroic fight of the Ukrainian people for independence, which he immediately used to call out the treasonous character of the AfD, and wishing them „farewell to Moscow“.
Tensions ran high & frustrations were palpable at a TDSB parent budget meeting Tuesday night, where parents pressed for answers on hundreds of staff cuts and program reductions planned for this fall.
But the Ford government-appointed TDSB Supervisor didn’t answer questions during the meeting & declined an interview with me afterward. Watch:
The Ford government is escalating its fight to cancel all summer meetings of the committee responsible for vetting PC appointees to provincial agencies & boards, now taking the dispute to the Speaker.
Critics say it’s “astonishing the lengths they’ll go to not be held accountable.”
But the government argues historically, this committee has never met during breaks.
Today, I signed a decree establishing a new special day – the Day of the Unmanned Systems Forces. From now on, it will be observed every year on June 11. A day of our respect and gratitude to the USF.
For the first time in the world, such a branch of the military was created – in Ukraine. We are developing the USF to the max, and it is Ukrainians who have proved that through technology, ingenuity, and courage, we can change the nature of warfare. We can achieve objectives that were previously either completely out of reach of conventional weapons or extremely difficult to achieve and required an enormous expenditure of resources.
In just one year since the establishment of the USF Grouping, Russian targets of various levels worth nearly $40 billion have been struck. Most importantly, these are different types of strikes, and each one expands our ability to save lives.
The Unmanned Systems Forces of the Armed Forces of Ukraine are truly a model for many other militaries.
Alberta, what do you get out of the $91,000,000, yes, $91 million referendum?
Nothing.
This $91 million could have been spent on building 3 schools, or 4 senior homes, or emergency rooms, hiring doctors or nurses.
Instead, you get nothing.
