Zelensky sigue meando a Trump desde arriba y acaba de ordenar un ataque con drones para destruir una terminal petrolera en Sant Peterburgo donde justo estaban cargando el diesel ruso en un tanquero para enviarlo hacia los Estados Unidos. Un duro golpe que desafía y desmoraliza a Putin y a Trump por igual!
Holy cow. Donald Trump just admits he’s fully covering for Putin directly insinuating he has “details” he will release that show Putin didn’t start the war.
The President of the USA is doing propaganda for Russia and Putin. MAGA you are a joke.
🚨 Ukraine has gathered clear proof that Starlink is being ordered to scupper Ukrainian operations.
It is horrific betrayal.
This is why all US technology needs to be replaced by European technology for critical European systems - UK included.
ALL of it.

Ukrainian forces overnight launched the largest attack on the city of St Petersburg of the whole war and managed to confuse Russian air defences via flying close to Estonia and Latvian airspaces on their routes up to the strikes.
The Kremlin was unable to repel the attack.
MAGA influencers and Russian propaganda outlets are increasingly painting Europe as “unsafe.”
That is, of course, a lie.
On basic safety, Europe massively outperforms the United States, and Russia isn’t even close.
Some examples:
Homicide rate (per 100,000 people)
- United States: ~6.4
- Russia: ~6–7
- Europe (average): just over 2
Europe is about three times safer than the U.S. on murder rates, and far safer than Russia.
Mass shootings
Using the standard definition (4+ people shot, excluding the shooter):
- United States: hundreds every year (586 in 2024 alone)
- Europe: rare, often zero in most countries in a given year
The U.S. has a mass-shooting problem. Europe does not.
Prison population (per 100,000 people):
- United States: ~540+
- Russia: ~300
- European Union: ~111
The U.S. incarcerates about five times more people than the EU.
Russia incarcerates almost three times more than the EU.
Despite this, both still have higher violence levels than Europe.
Gun deaths (scale matters):
- United States: ~47,000 gun deaths per year
- Europe: a fraction of that, despite a larger population
To conclude, Europe is:
- Less violent
- Less lethal
- Less carceral
- More stable
The claim that Europe is “dangerous” (usually blamed on immigrants) compared to the U.S. or Russia is simply bullshit.
With another school shooting, this time in Bend, Oregon, it might be a good time to point out that Bill Clinton’s assault weapons ban almost halved mass shooting deaths - but after George W Bush & Republicans let it expire, mass shooting deaths more than doubled. It’s the guns.
A teenager used a gun to murder innocent children.
An educator died in a job that should not be life threatening.
And yet the GOP majority will again resist any meaningful effort to stop the next school shooting.
This is the reality of the current Congress. And it’s heartbreaking.
