Zelenskyy claims Russia is sharing satellite imagery of U.S. military bases with Iran.
Trump's response when asked about this? "I'll ask Putin."
That's an embarrassing answer from the president of the United States.
Jews don’t eat bacon, but they don’t try to ban it for others.
Mormons don’t drink coffee, but they don’t try to ban it for others.
The Amish don’t use electricity, but they don’t try to shut down power plants.
Islamism wants to force everyone to live under Sharia law.
Joe Biden stood by his son through his entire time as an addict.
Donald Trump chose golf over his son's wedding.
One is a father. The other is a mother******.
My daughter was elected as a city councillor when she was 18, the youngest in the country at the time. (11 years ago)
She worked her butt off beforehand (and afterwards) to ensure she knew all there is to know about how local government works. She was brilliant and did some important work. She knew all this backwards before she got in the chamber.
This is outrageous incompetence. I wouldn’t dream of voting Reform, but this should give pause to anyone remotely considering it.
It’s my wife’s bday today and I decided to make sure she woke up with a big smile on her face.
Long story short…
I’m not allowed to have sharpies in the house anymore…
‼️Something very important is happening on the Mariupol direction.
ZELENSKYY: A Ukrainian soldier from Mariupol gave me this chevron, with a clear desire for Ukraine to return to Mariupol and to all of its territory. And we really, really want it to be so.
This statement from Zelenskyy is especially symbolic, as Ukraine’s mid-range strike campaign is causing havoc to multiple critical Russian supply routes deep behind the front in southern Ukraine this month. Numerous Russian military transports have been hit on the E105, M14, and H20 highways connecting Rostov to Crimea, which is effectively disrupting supply lines to Mariupol and cutting off logistics to the area.
"Dear Rivne region! Today I was here, with our soldiers, I awarded, our guys. Wounded soldiers who are recovering here. One of them from Mariupol, Maksym, gave me a chevron. Here is this chevron. He gave me this with a clear desire for Ukraine to return to Mariupol, to return to its entire land. And we really, really want it to be so. Thank you, thank you to all our soldiers, our defenders. Glory to Ukraine!"- Ukrainian President on Friday, May 22, 2026.
King Charles gave him a bell.
The primary British slang related to "bell" is bellend (or bell-end), a vulgar insult used to describe a stupid, annoying, or contemptible person, referencing the head of a penis. It is similar to calling someone a "dickhead".
@OlgaPatl Hopefully to be spent with the European defence industry and not US companies which would turn off weapon software or maintence services if the Orange Clown in the Whitehouse said to do it.....US cannot be trusted...ever
Bob Mueller was one of the finest directors in the history of the FBI, transforming the bureau after 9/11 and saving countless lives. But it was his relentless commitment to the rule of law and his unwavering belief in our bedrock values that made him one of the most respected public servants of our time. Michelle and I send our condolences to Bob’s family, and everyone who knew and admired him.
Not what I said
I said that criticism of Islam should be called Islamoscepticism
Phobia implies irrational over-reaction, as with spiders
Scepticism is an impeccable intellectual position - the basis of science
Which is why many muslims like the word Islamophobia, since by definition it settles the
argument before it has started
A grandmother overheard her 5-year-old granddaughter playing "wedding." The wedding vows went like this:
"You have the right to remain silent, anything you say may be held against you, you have the right to have an attorney present. You may kiss the bride."
-Tu es amoureux?
-Non, elle me trouble, me séduit et m'inquiète, m'attire et m'effraye.
Je me méfie d'elle comme d'un piège, et j'ai envie d'elle comme d'un sorbet quand on a soif. Je subis son charme. Je me sens en contact avec un être anormal, en dehors des règles naturelles, exquis ou détestable, je ne sais pas.
-Je te dis que tu es amoureux.
-C'est possible après tout. Elle me préoccupe beaucoup.. J'y songe trop, je pense à elle en m'endormant et aussi en me réveillant, c'est assez grave. Son image me suit me poursuit, m'accompagne sans cesse toujours devant.
