Received briefings from Minister of Defense of Ukraine Yevhenii Khmara and Commander-in-Chief of the Armed Forces of Ukraine Mykhailo Drapatyi. Unfortunately, our units have been recording significant disruptions to Starshield’s operations over the territory of Ukraine for several days now – along the entire front line and in the temporarily occupied territories of Ukraine. Specifically, systematic speed restrictions are being imposed on Starshield, limiting it to 161 kilometers per hour (100 miles per hour). The Ukrainian military have already investigated the circumstances, and these are not random errors but systematic speed restrictions. For us, this primarily means a significant complication in intercepting Russian jet-powered drones. Unfortunately, there have already been strikes that got through because our interception systems cannot reach sufficient speeds and are unable to intercept in time. Unfortunately, this is helping the Russians kill more Ukrainians and carry out more accurate strikes against Ukraine. We are trying to establish all the circumstances with the American side.
Trump can't even admit the number of Military deaths the Pentagon admits to in his vanity Iran war.
He claims 18.
23 U.S. service members killed and 865 wounded in operations connected to the conflict.
And how many of 865 are permanently disabled?
it's really remarkable how watching Fox and Newsmax over the past week has demonstrated that MAGA really only has one play -- smear, demonize, deflect, lie -- and now that that approach has been resounding rejected by voters, they have no idea what to do. They're just running it back and I guess hoping for a different result in two years.
@Mollyploofkins The Republicans will get 2/3 the camera time and print to lie and the Dems will get a incoherent sound bite to rebut and then on to the next story That's what brought Biden down our economy coming out of covid was the best and working but everyone thought we where in a resecion
CBS is reporting that Susie Wiles's old lobbying firm has made $186 million under the Trump administration. Tell me again how food stamps that help a single mother feed her child while she works a full time job are the problem.
We keep hearing again that Russia supposedly needs security guarantees. Even though no one has attacked Russia for many decades. Since the Second World War, Moscow has not gone through even one decade without starting a war or using military force against another country.
So when the Russians now talk about a security architecture for themselves, or about security guarantees for Russia – they are hardly talking about real security. And peace.
What they really want – is to freely interfere in the affairs of other countries, and to use force whenever they want, and to make sure that no one can support liberty inside Russia because Putin wants to keep his personal power forever and pass on his imperialist and, in many ways, simply fascist views to the next generations.
From a speech at the Danish Folketing. (3/3)
🚨MAJOR BREAKING: White House counsel Will Scharf has sent a threatening letter to incoming House Oversight chair Robert Garcia warning he would be investigated himself if he continues to subpoena Trump officials.
Oversight’s response: “It appears Donald Trump has something to hide.”
Here’s the relevant text of the White House letter:
"Beyond being inconsistent with the clear, well-recognized constitutional limitations on your
investigative functions, threats to executive branch officials designed to deter them from public service, or process designed merely to abuse or instill fear in the recipient may cross the line into blatant criminality. And issuing unlawful subpoenas with the intention of depriving citizens of their constitutional rights and privileges may warrant further investigation."
And Oversight’s response:
“Today, Rep. Robert Garcia, Ranking Member of the House Committee on Oversight and Government Reform, released the following statement after the White House sent a letter to Oversight Democrats threatening to infringe upon the Committee's constitutionally protected right to conduct congressional oversight.
"It appears Donald Trump has something to hide. Let's be clear: Congress' authority comes from Article I of the Constitution, not from the permission of the White House. Congress has wide latitude to conduct investigations and oversight, an authority inherent in the power to legislate.
The American people voted overwhelmingly for us to pass laws to root out corruption and abuse. The Trump Administration continues to weaponize the government with threats of unconstitutional attacks on Congress. We are a coequal branch of government and will not be deterred by baseless threats from a weaponized DOJ or from the President's lawyers."
Trump was briefed over A YEAR AGO on Nvidia’s CEO having an affair with a Chinese spy. He did nothing about it.
Instead, Trump took him to Beijing, took his advice to give China access to our AI chips, & accepted a $25M donation from Nvidia.
We need answers immediately on Trump’s failure to protect our national security
When democrats lose elections, they move on and plan to do better next time… every time republicans lose, they cry it was rigged, go on attack mode, and try to force themselves on the American people. True story.
🚨JUST IN: A shocking MSNOW report reveals Donald Trump has made up to $5 BILLION while in office, while MAGA supporters who invested in his cryptocurrency have LOST $1 BILLION, with their investments now worth almost NOTHING.
This is unprecedented corruption.
When Republicans win a 4-seat majority in the House and a 3-seat majority in the Senate.
"This is a mandate! Liberalism is dead!"
When Democrats win (at least) a 90-seat majority in the House and a 10-seat majority in the Senate…
"Democrats need to reach across the aisle."🤣😂
