European supporting Ukraine 🇪🇺 🇬🇧 🇺🇦 🇵🇱

[UAVoyager🇺🇦 @NAFOvoyager]

Taliban opened fire on women protesting new dress code restrictions in Herat.

Just a reminder: russia proudly calls them friends and partners.

That tells you everything you need to know.

1,568 days.

That’s how long World War I lasted.

As of today, Russia’s full-scale war against Ukraine has lasted just as long. Millions displaced, thousands killed, entire cities destroyed — and Europe’s largest war since 1945 is still not over.

[Jürgen Nauditt 🇩🇪🇺🇦 @jurgen_nauditt]

"All we have left is prayer." Russia has been compared to a "crashing plane" piloted by Putin.

This metaphor comes from financial analyst and former RBC TV host Timofey Martynov. The video became the most popular post on his personal TikTok channel, according to the *ChTD* channel. The blogger described his impressions of the recent St. Petersburg International Economic Forum (SPIEF) but refrained from explicitly naming the pilot of this crashing plane:

"Real power lies in the cockpit—soundproofed, hermetically sealed, and inaccessible to the passengers. All we can do is hope that the pilot takes the controls and pulls back on the stick. That is the only thing that can save us."

⚡🇺🇲🇺🇦🇷🇺Rep. Keating to Rubio: "I'm sure you're aware that Ukraine, country that at the time had third-largest nuclear arsenal, peacefully turned over their nuclear weapons in conjunction with Budapest Memorandum.

And in exchange for U.S. commitment to defend Ukraine if it ever came under threat. The U.S. gave its word to Ukraine that it would defend them.

And I find this amazing. In your opening remarks, as you took us all over the world and mentioned 15 different incidents where you have interceded — 15, the top 15 — not once did you mention Ukraine when you were prioritizing achievements that are there."

Russia holds ‘elections’ like this in occupied territories and then proceeds to lecture others on elections

[Kate from Kharkiv @BohuslavskaKate]

This is Olha, she was 22-year-old. Russia killed her yesterday in overnight attack on Chuhuiv, Kharkiv region 🕯💔

She was seven months pregnant. Olha’s husband is currently serving in the Armed Forces, defending Ukraine.

​Olha worked as a psychologist at "Shans" (Chance), a local comprehensive rehabilitation center for people with disabilities, where she dedicated herself to helping children.

Dum(b)est POS in our American history!

[Republicans against Trump @RpsAgainstTrump]

Lindsey Graham, in his victory speech:

“I want to thank the big guy. God. Trump comes later. Mr. President, you’re not far behind God.”

This guy is the worst.

4 months ago i booked 3 coaches for $7k to transport fans from downtown Boston to Eng v Ghana.

Contracts signed/ paid. 156 fans paid me, saving money on absurd train fare.

Now 10 DAYS before match, the coach firm said they had ‘capacity issues' & have asked for $4k extra. 😮

Azov are back in Mariupol, unimpeded.

Russia's VNIIR Progress military electronics plant, seen earlier today after it was massively damaged in a Ukrainian Flamingo strike:

Anti-drone netting had been installed, but failed to stop the 8 ton, 40-foot-long Ukrainian cruise missile and its 2,500-pound warhead.

Who else has long Russian ties and numerous RT appearances?

Nigel Farage.

Just when Trump thought the Epstein files threat was in the rear view mirror, Maggie Habermsn and Jonathan Swan come a knocking on the door of public consciousness again.

Their upcoming book ‘Regime Change’ rips of the festering scab that has grown over the open wound of Trump’s relationship with Jeffrey Epstein.

The regime are going to find this reporting very difficult to brush off as lies and a hit job. It’s just another in a growing list of damaging political threats Trump is unable to fend off.

Thanks to the New York Times for the clip.

Krasnodar Krai, Russia
💥🛢️According to reports, the area is under attack. Local residents report a fire at the Afipsky Oil Refinery, though the extent of the damage remains unclear.

🇺🇸Trump at 9:00 PM — "Top Iranian officials called and asked me to stop the bombing."

🇮🇷Iran at 9:05 PM — "Get lost, liar. It is completely false. You are attempting to cover up a retreat from conflict with Iran."🔥

He is again underestimating Iran

[Global News 24 @GlobalNews_24]

А нас за что? 🇷🇺 Россияне, вы привели этого Путина к власти. Вы молча наблюдали за "рязанским сахаром", за тем, как Путин уничтожает чеченский народ. За тем, как он напал на Грузию. Как утопил в крови сирийцев. Вы молча наблюдали за этой фашистской пропагандой, за развращением по ТВ, за псевдопопами, так называемыми религиозниками. Вы молча наблюдали за пропагандой фашизма. Вы молча наблюдали за пытками, за репрессиями. Вы молча наблюдали, как ваших достойных людей уничтожали

Многие из вас были подвержены этой пропаганде, когда Россия уже в двадцать втором году напала на Украину, вы с пеной у рта этому радовались везде. Во всех интернетах, чат - рулетках, везде

Я сейчас обращаюсь к тем, которые говорят: «А нас за что?». Я за Путина никогда не голосовал, эту войну никогда не поддерживал. А что вы сделали?

Что вы сделали, когда Путин отправил на войну в Украину, маньяков, маргиналов, так называемую "армию", заключённых, насильников, убийц из тюрем? Вы за этим молча наблюдали, которые творили дичь в Украине, которые убивали, насиловали, крали детей

Кто-то потерял мать, кто-то потерял отца; кто-то потерял всю семью, брата, сестру, жену, мужа, детей. И вы тут сидите и говорите: «А нас за что?

Почему до сих пор вы ничего не сделали, чтобы помочь Украине? Почему не предлагаете свою помощь украинцам по свержению этих маньяков, убрать эту мафию с российского трона?

⁉️ Вопрос: после всего вышесказанного, как вы думаете, россияне, почему вас украинцы ненавидят?

SYKES: Are you aware the US was taking millions of barrels of oil from Iran?

WRIGHT: We are preventing the flow of Iranian oil

SYKES: That is not what I asked you. Can I play some audio?

*plays audio of Trump admitting the US is stealing Iranian oil*

WRIGHT: I think the president is talking casually

SYKES: Do you think that it's appropriate to 'talk casually' about war?

WRIGHT: I think you talk to all different audiences and you talk in all different styles

SYKES: There are 13 service members who are dead

WRIGHT: He treats this war deadly serious

SYKES: You just said he was speaking casually

WRIGHT: He speaks 20 hours a day

[Anton Gerashchenko @Gerashchenko_en]

Lavrov confirms that Russia doesn't want peace.
He blames Europe for it, as Russia always does.

Lavrov: Until Russia is convinced that Europe’s statements about its desire to begin negotiations are serious, such ideas should be ignored.

"No matter how you sit down, my friends - as a trio, as the EU, or individually...

Of course, miracles do happen, but I have very little faith that any miracle can happen with the current EU.

Until we hear and are convinced that what we have heard is a serious proposal, and not yet another attempt to protect, preserve, and strengthen the Kyiv Nazi regime, we will probably listen - but I would simply ignore such ideas.

From the point of view of assessing the actions of our European neighbors, well, I would simply deepen my understanding of what they really are."

[Kerry Burgess @KerryBurgess]

What an utter mess.
I hear that some Scotland fans that had previously been cleared by US immigration have also had their visas revoked.
The United States was simply never an appropriate venue to host the World Cup. A minimum requirement for hosting should be that the host country IS NOT AT WAR with any countries that are attending the event.
This is on FIFA. FIFA picked the US, knowing full well its history of military aggression and FIFA should now be compensating all fans from competing countries who have been denied entry to attend the matches.
