It’s just some kind of insane hatred toward the Ukrainian people. What did my people, what did Ukrainians ordinary Ukrainians, people, children, do so wrong to this world to have to live a part of their lives like this?! What did the person who left this life do wrong… no, they didn't leave it, they were killed by the russians, for what the fuck? What did an elderly woman do wrong, a Ukrainian woman who was buried alive in her own room because of russian shelling?
I just look at all of this and my brain cannot find an explanation for this worldwide madhouse called human LIFE. Some kill with impunity, others become victims and resist with all their strength and ability, and others just watch… damn, is this a theater… or a fucking play? I simply refuse to accept everything I've seen over many years as human life. This is some kind of psychopath's dream.
Rubio says that US-led peace negotiations between Russia and Ukraine "were not fruitful." Not fruitful?
Let’s look at the facts: your negotiators visited Russia seven times, and Ukraine zero times. You demanded concessions from Ukraine before negotiations even began, and throughout the entire process.
You pressured Ukraine by cutting off weapons support entirely, constantly badmouthing us, and showing up at our doorstep waving Russian "peace plan" you demanded we sign immediately.
And now, after Ukraine stands more firmly on its feet without your support, you realize you can't pressure us anymore. So your excuse is that you are tired and leaving?
How about, for once, you actually support the victim, which is Ukraine instead of terrorist Russian regime? Send your team to Kyiv, support our fight, and apply real pressure on aggressor.
Sanction Russia and seize their shadow fleet instead of handing out sanction waivers. Do that, and maybe negotiations will magically become "fruitful."
🚨 SHOCKING — These are the exact same Reform activists who flood X every day screaming, lecturing, and telling everyone how Britain should be run…
Yet 24 hours after getting elected in Kirklees, they stand up in full council and admit:
“I don’t understand the Constitution…
I don’t understand standing orders…
I don’t understand what an amendment is.”
Then they whine it’s “not democratic” they might vote on things they don’t understand
This is the terrifying danger of populist rage politics: loud online warriors with ZERO clue how to actually govern.
Handing real power to people who don’t even know where to start is how countries collapse.

@RussianEmbassy You could not occupy the territory by force so you choose to fire missiles onto a sovereign country to murder innocent civilians.
No wonder that we say you are sub-human scum #RussiaIsATerroristState
Russia: Don’t attack the Moscow parade, or we’ll attack Kyiv.
Ukraine: Ok, no attack, have your parade.
Russia, a few days later: attacks residential buildings in Kyiv while people are sleeping, killing 1, injuring 23.
🚨BREAKING🚨
Keir Starmer once reclined his seat on a short-haul flight.
In other news Nigel Farage has received a £5m gift, a house, helicopter flights, a Maldives trip and been accused of throwing an election for £1m.
Here's Sam Coates with more on the reclined seat scandal.
🚨 FARAGE & THE £10M QUESTIONS 🚨
Now trending: a 2010 BBC investigation into a man allegedly using two different names but the same details as Christopher Harborne, who was reportedly being investigated over a £10 million donation linked to Nigel Farage at the time.
Clearly, this is not Farage’s first rodeo when it comes to controversy surrounding money and politics. 👀🇬🇧
🇺🇦🇷🇺🤡 Poutine après les frappes nocturnes dans la région de Rostov : « Le régime de Kyiv a commis aujourd’hui un acte de nature terroriste. »
Toujours fascinant de voir la Russie, qui envahit, bombarde les villes ukrainiennes, tue des civils et frappe des infrastructures chaque semaine, découvrir soudain le mot “terrorisme” quand la guerre revient toucher ses propres régions.
Moscou appelle “terrorisme” ce qui vise son appareil militaire, mais “opération spéciale” quand elle détruit l’Ukraine.
La cohérence russe dans toute sa splendeur.
And just like that, the very wealthiest party in the U.K. backed by foreign billionaires is supported by the very poorest members of society who dislike foreigners. You couldn’t make this shit up.
